noinput··on Twitter rolls out photo tagging, up to four photos in a tweet
I haven't yet found any mention of how this affects the API. Anyone know when public coverage of becomes exposed, if not already?
noinput··on Framework 7 – Building native iOS apps in HTML5
Very impressive. As someone who uses Appcelerator a lot, this makes me rethink the ability to prototype and app quick and wrap it with Phonegap, or a similar strategy.

Colors, spacing, swipe translations are all very solid. While a majority of everyone else here complains about pixels and the right words to use, I'd like to congratulate you on this.

226K Followers (at the time of viewing), that's a shame.

Joe PHP is on the loose, try and catch him.
noinput··on Box has secretly filed for an IPO
This, was perfect.
noinput··on Open for everyone
Obviously, not to be confused with your brilliant sarcasm. [downvote away, it's worth it]
noinput··on Poll: Do you actually use the product you are working on?
How do you like your job and what do you do there more specifically? Love to hear more.
noinput··on King.com, makers of Candy Crush Saga – Trademark Trolls with a Double Standard?
How is this different than playing Street Fighter, Contra, or any other arcade game? I remember pulling a roll of quarters out of the bank just so I could go to the arcade prepared to slowly spend money years back.
noinput··on Seth Godin: The New Business Toolbox
OP here: I just enrolled in this (really looking forward to it as a Seth fan myself) and Skillshare has a referral link that gives $10 off: http://skl.sh/1d1vWdC

If it doesn't work, reply here so I can take the link down, if it does, enjoy the discount.

noinput··on Github was down
same here, --force wasn't cutting it.
noinput··on Alternatives to HipChat
I use https://github.com/kandanapp/kandan at the office with my team. Easy to roll on a free Heroku instance and the pricetag is hard to beat.
noinput··on Gmail - Find Emails That Never Got a Reply
I pray recruiters never find this
noinput··on What Are You Going To Stop Doing in 2014?
things that don't matter. or rather, attempt to do more that do make a difference.
noinput··on Kima15: $150K for 15% in 15 days
Of course but with this said:

> This should help you to launch the first version of your product and to test your initial hypothesis about the market before (potentially) raising more funding to grow the business.

They are shooting for helping companies who know what they need to execute do it fast and not worry about the rest, at least for a bit. After personally going through almost 6 months of angel investing diligence hell to get a similar deal, this is completely something I appreciate.

noinput··on Scaling a popular internet radio station
thanks for that! looking forward to trying it out. happy thanksgiving :)
noinput··on Scaling a popular internet radio station
Thanks for sharing this. Do you by chance have a few bullet points you could add to the README for getting a baseline config as a working demo?

I currently run mobile apps with college sports programming on Live365 and am streaming ~ 300,000hrs per month. I'm dying to find a great replacement resource to finally do things better. This would be the best reason I could think of to finally learn node!

noinput··on YouTubeSkip
So we're supposed to use this site to skip YouTube ads, and in exchange we're presented with the website's ads. Right.
noinput··on Show HN: Spotify for Independent Music
Really like this. Now a few songs in from the hot recommendations on your homepage and already hooked. I have a small side venture that could be a nice integration point for your artists (free as well). If interested, email is in my profile.
noinput··on We Need To Talk, Google
Might want to remove your site search with google and link to google maps on your masthead image, then.
noinput··on Goodbye Google Analytics. Hello Piwik
I setup a Pagodabox app to launch a new self hosted Piwik instance a few back: https://pagodabox.com/cafe/noinput/piwik

Hope some find it helpful for a quick way to test out and run it for free to see if they like it (I do).

noinput··on SQL injection search
Don't forget strstr(). So nice, they named it twice.
noinput··on You Can't Afford To Stop Using Mail
Thanks for the clarity, probably best to explain it on your site just as you did here. Good luck with the rollout/launch.
noinput··on You Can't Afford To Stop Using Mail
Looking forward to trying it, however requested an invite and the scanner on the Thank You screen mentions my @gmail.com account got a thumbs down for Deliverability and being 'weakly secured'. Kind of a bold statement to make about gmail, no?
noinput··on Ask HN: Why should I care about HN Karma?
It's completely objective, just as Reddit's count, your Facebook friends, or your Twitter followers. However, it helps in many ways when objectively applied evaluating a person's involvement in the community and commenting reputation.

If someone leaves a stark comment and had 10 points and 10 submissions, you can guess they have a lot to learn about this community, however if you find someone in the thousand's+ and has actively engaged in meaningful conversation, you get a better idea on the intent of the commentator in question.

Additionally, in the past when personally asking for advice (like this thread), I've used that same logic to help better understand the true value of opinions. I've also heard on two occasions from startup employers something along the lines of "..but what's their HN score?".

Oh, and after a certain amount of Karma, you get down-vote ability.

noinput··on Offer HN: Anyone want fastga.me?
free. shoot me your namecheap id and enable anonymous transfers or send me the transfer code.
noinput··on Don't send me a message to tell me I have a message
I'd like to think that if a random person got ahold of my phone and was in my email, the balance of my account is the last thing I'd worry about.
noinput··on Parse Named to the Facebook Technology Partners Program
Well deserved, congrats guys!
noinput··on Show HN: The Found a Business Book – Interviews with Entrepreneurs
Purchased, thanks for putting all these great opinions in one place. looking forward to the read.
noinput··on Ask HN: Which hosting company to use for a small SaaS product?
pagodabox.com is a favorite. they also offer redis/memcache clusters etc and chances are you'll do fine with their free tier for a while also. ondemand IP's without SSL can start to cost you on various services, so watch out for that.
