businesses pay HUGE money for focus groups and A/B testing. think of the notes as detailed points of these. not to mention a wider and honest sample pool.

whole lot of ifs and switches in that thing LOL Reminds me of the first version of FUSEBOX in the late 90s. it was just a huge cfswitch/cfcase with a mess of cfincludes so it could load in eclipse since eclipse had a hard time back then with files over 1000 lines i think. i'm showing my age.

niiiiiiiiice... i think this is something that alot of schools could use since everything is going online.

i'm going to echo @rkhassen9 observation that your pricing model isn't attractive to the average person. this is totally my opinion, but the value here is the amount of notes you collect. while the average person is not willing to pay to record note, businesses are definitely willing to pay to retrieve the notes of others. if you let people annotate an unlimited number of votes with an unlimited number of notes you will build your database faster. then you could charge businesses to have access to those notes via an API. on a consumer side of that, individuals could see all of their notes but can only see the last 5 recent notes for others.

all in all though, this is a really cool product and will definitely be a game changer as more and more schools and classes move to online.

hackers go after low hanging fruit 99% of the time. it's the reason why there are so many wordpress scanners out there.

pretty cool. learned alot of new databases beyond the big 6.

this site could benefit greatly from not running on a database and being statically generated. even the browse section could just be a vuejs app powered by a json collection.

but is the whole point of autonomous driving is so you can be doing other things while the car is driving itself??? cause, you know, if you have to pay attention, then technically your driving.

not for nothing but they are blaming the wrong person and it upsets me that they are charging them in the first place. i love how the company is not at fault yet the employee now has to pay the price. it sickens me how our justice system works. most of the time people get charged specifically cause the da wants to make a name for themselves and i see it with this case.

btw... uber better have their entire legal team helping this person out, cause this could REALLY set a president to the point where it could kill this technology. imagine if self-driving cars really do become a thing and this happened to you.

personally i think the biggest mistake we made as a society is putting too many automated feature in vehicles. drivers are becoming way too laxed and dependent rather than alert.

could someone take the time and explain to a moron like me why the mutability of moment is bad? i just don't get it. moment has always been my goto library for dealing with dates in javascript.

i don't get how an adblocker would have help in this case. the victim could easily be conned into downloading this app through a marketing email or some other way. the real issue is that an app like this is even allowed on the play store at all.

just saying... As much as everyone hates on Apple cause of their review process, you have to admit that an app like this would have been caught.

i'm sorry to say but all this will do is desensitize people further. it used to be that when they named a storm it was going to be bad and you paid attention. now they name every damn storm out there and it just makes you tune out.

it's great that it's selling more than cds, but that's like being the best in the losers bracket. i don't know a single person in my life who actually buys vinyl records. everyone i know has a spotify or panadora account.

"Airbnb for storage"

i knew you were putting in the hn title, so we could all relate, but you have that quote right on your site... are you even allowed to say that? aren't you infringing on Airbnb?

i don't know about this... as others have pointed out, i wouldn't want someone sending me something illegal and getting int trouble for storing it. best of luck though.

you sure you setup your campaign correctly? from what it sounds like, you didn't limit your campaign to search. also it would be VERY interesting to see how you not only setup your ad group but also what keywords you used for each group. typically when we see people complain about ad fraud we see alot of basic mistakes that they made when setting up their campaign. i hate to say it, but 99% of the people out that claim they know how to setup and manage a google ads campaign are amateurs at best and don't know the basic foundations of the way google ads works.

that's cause the article is written for seo and advertising purposes and not for educational purposes. do you know how many seo articles i have personally seen written with false information? i'm surprised they didn't throw in the obligatory quote from company ciso.

so happy to see WebDev Simplified on the list and #2 to boot!!! that dude makes things so easy to understand. if you have not watched his videos on flexbox and cssgrid, you are doing yourself a disservice. easily the most clear and simplest explanations i have found. keep up the good work kyle!!!

been trying that on the app and it doesn't work. works on the site but not the app.

that's cause they push it like a crack dealer pushing crack.

wanna play a video, open it in the app. wanna look at risky content, open it in the app.

and btw, their app IS THE WORST. my biggest gripe is that i CANNOT COLLAPSE CONVERSATIONS grrrrrrrrrrrrr. i'm not gonna waste my time listing all the other annoyances and bugs that are riddled through out the thing.

fact of the matter is that the reddit app is the poster child that just because something has that many downloads doesn't mean it's a good product. i would be willing to bet that 75% of those download are people uninstall and reinstalling it because it LOCKS UP EVERY 5 MINUTES grrrrrrrrrrrr.

so basically stuffing DNS with alot of TXT records.

What the author and most people fails to realize is that you can make alot of money in the market with bubbles.

I called this a month ago. there is no reason why microsoft (github) would pass up an opportunity to create their own registry.

"I think that free world should ban every company that comply with china censorship"

not gonna happen because of this tiiiiiiiiny thing called money. china has over a billion people. if you want to be in that market, you play by their rules. it's not surprising how people can change their morals with the right dollar amount.

look, i'm not trying to cut down alternative platforms by any means, however these alternative platforms are failures waiting to happen. the reason is that although they start low cost, eventually, if they grow, they need some form of income in order to continue. at that point, they need some form of advertising which, cause of their content, they cannot get and as such, they close up.

i don't know why you are getting down voted for speaking the truth. I don't know a single person who this article would relate to in today's climate since everyone i know is using the latest version of office or on google docs.

jesus... that is such a negative way of looking at things.

i'm glad that prices and interest rates are finally at a level that people can purchase a home. now hopefully these people have learned from others mistakes in 2007 and only buy a house that they can afford which usually means that your whole MIT payment (mortage + taxes + insursure) never goes above 25% of your monthly net income. things got crazy in 2007 when people were committing 50% or more of the monthly net income to their home payment in hopes that they could flip it in a year or so for a big profit. while this is fine for an investment property that you don't care about getting foreclosed, you never have that mindset with your primary residence.

not really. turbolinks replaces the entire body when you click a link, there is now way to replace just a portion of the page.

pjax would be a better OG similarity: https://github.com/defunkt/jquery-pjax

This site works awesome. hats off to you truly.

there is one things that would make this site as useful as youtube and thats having the to and left site side fixed so they don't go away when you scroll down. this is how youtube has their site and i'm sure that's who are trying to mimic and that's what people are used to.

anyone have a non-paywall version

edit: found one:

i don't normally down vote people, but you earned it

you are doing God's work. Why would the submitter spell out JavaScript but abbreviate TypeScript?

i just got to say... i love reading the view source code of websites and finding SO references :) What would we do without SO?
