We scrape more than 120,000 web pages per day.

Cost of spinning up VPS instances, maintaining the software needed (to automatically close/open new ones and provision them) could be higher than the 20$/GB pricing Luminati offers.

Anyone knows a better alternative to luminati.io? We've been using it in our company but it feels expensive.

I thought this thread may be good place to ask for an alternative.

I'm guessing you are mentioning these points:

- Don't listen to that school counselor; never EVER go to public school

She told me and my family to opt for public school in high school but quality of education was[0] very low and I was already making money as a software developer at that time. Private schools have access; better network for the future and most of them have excellent education.

- Care less about grades more about work

Again, I was in a shitty school that gave me nothing. Working towards a better career would be better choice.

- Leave your parents' house before 18

This is a personal opinion. It was clear that I was going to move to a different city but I've never had to do any chores at home. So, my first year, I failed at some basic tasks in the house since I had no experience. If I was living in a separate house before moving to a different city; somewhere close to my parents, it would've been better.

[0] still very low.

I need to point out that all of these opinions are rare in my country. Combination of a rich family, love for technology, hunger for knowledge and luck is the reason why my opinions are like this.

- Take your work more seriously

- Don't use your emotions when deciding

- Don't eat that much and make exercising everyday a habit

- Don't listen to that school counselor; never EVER go to public school

- Spend less

- Care less about grades more about work

- Don't move to Kayışdağı

- Leave your parents' house before 18

Not that important but it was an then-expensive lesson:

- Don't buy that Samsung Omnia, get the iPhone

I did have many of the issues commented here but recent beta releases fixed many of them for me. Wifi seems stable, I can answer phone calls if the phone is nearby, it certainly become faster over time.

I'm on a previous generation rMBP 13".

This is one of those sites I wouldn't mind the site hijacking my scroll. It would also be nice if you could show many any languages were created for a year in the year bar above, maybe on hover or as a badge.

If you happen to have intives and you are able to send, could you send me one too? Thank you. My e-mail: batuhanicoz@gmail.com

It's open source! :)

We have NFC sim cards in Turkey that enables regular phones (even dumb ones) to make purchases. (http://www.garanti.com.tr/en/personal_banking/credit_cards/b...)

There are also NFC enabled stickers, watches and key fobs.

OT -- For a moment there I thought my web site[0] was the link.

What about Skype?

And if we are counting Facebook's Chat, most people I know uses Talk (Google+ Hangouts).

Earthquakes really do scare me.

They are expecting a huge earthquake in my city and a recent analysis I read said if it happens (and happens in the magnitudes they are expecting) millions would die (not from the quake itself, but from not being able to get help, cold etc.). I believe in a case like that entire economy (and everything, really) of the country would fall irrecoverably for at least a 50 years.

Well, if it happens in the night, at least I won't be alive to see the effects of it. (My apartment is old and I live very near to the sea, so there is also the risk of tsunamis. YAY!)

This only seems to happen when you install Yosemite by upgrading from the previous OS X. It's not there on a clean install.

I may be wrong though. When I first installed Yosemite by upgrading, this icon was there. This morning I did a clean install and it's not there. Maybe it's an update that fixed this? I don't know.

Most people I know in Turkey says double-v, including my father who can't even Google properly.

We do say BMV though. And I've heard may people saying "v", but most? I'm now sure. I could be living in a bubble.

I was going to remove that "claim" part but it was too late.

I don't use Android but this looks like a really good project. It's also good to know that Nokia we knew and loved is still creating consumer software.

That is weird.

Also:

- They don't list Nokia X in the supported (tested) devices section[0].

- SSL certificate doesn't belong to Nokia

- Whois records are hidden trough proxy, doesn't sound like something a company like Nokia would do

- They belong to Microsoft now, I don't think Microsoft would allow them to launch this, if this the Mobile Devices section of Nokia.

- Domain was bought from GoDaddy. Nokia, like most of the big companies, uses MarkMonitor.

EDIT: This seems to be a project by John Kneeland. https://twitter.com/SirKneeland http://kneeland.me/about/

I found his e-mail in the Google+ login app.

EDIT2: They claim to be the real Nokia, the part outside of Microsoft. https://twitter.com/SirKneeland/status/479686206318342144

Same thing here in Turkey with Vodafone.

Last time I've used that plan it was 9 liras/3$ a month.

> The thing I miss the most is the inline display of AJAX call responses

If I understood correctly, you can have this on Chrome. In Chrome JS Console, do a right click in an empty space, and select "Log XMLHTTPRequests" (or it was something similar).

I've started downloading it. I don't think you have to use this link, I've started my download from the Member Center[0]. It gave a "redeem code" and started downloading.

Edit: This is only for people who are members of the Developer Program. I only pay for iOS and I have access to OS X too so you probably only need membership from the one of the developer programs.

I use http://ionicframework.com in this area because I like Angular and there are a lot of content on it all over the web.

Most of my friends use http://www.idangero.us/framework7/, which is also good and has many components. (Though I didn't really used it myself)

App.js doesn't look like it has enough components ATM.

Hooks would be nice for this. It's what Kinvey does and I think it's the best option. Want to run a special query or a special function? Have a hook that listens on the related queries, alter anything you like. You should also have direct access to raw database connection there, which is again, what Kinvey does.

Asynchronous Module Definition[0].

You could create a download file, but only in newer browsers.

We have an internal application which requires CSV export, we use something like this:

        csv = cleanTurkishChars(makeCSV(data));
        csv = 'data:application/csv;charset=utf-8,' + encodeURIComponent(csv);
        $("#csvexport").attr({
            'href': csv,
            'target': '_blank'
        });

Some feedback:

- Vanilla JS would be cleaner

- Make it useable with Node. (Check if "window" variable exists, if not, do export CSV as a module. Should be this easy AFAIK)

- You have some typos on the README.md

- Put this on bower and npm

Good work. I was writing software at 16 but I wasn't doing it open source, I wish I did.

Twitter "shrinks" URL's no matter what. My website link is is 11 characters[0], I don't know how shorter it can get.

[0] http://bt.hn

Short URL's have two purposes for me:

- They are easier to spell on the phone (This is not.) - I like to track the clicks (Which I can't do with this.)

But, as a proof of concept, this is nice.

OT: Oh, I'm turning into a real HNer with this comment.

This acquisition is actually pretty easy to make sense of, unlike WhatsApp acquisition of Facebook. This is a company which made USD 31.7 Billion in revenues last year[0].

It now uses canvas element instead of Flash, AFAIK. Maybe it falls back to Flash when the browser doesn't support HTML5.

A bit OT but: Shouldn't it better to use native CSS3 font feature instead of canvas? Guess I know what I'll research this evening.

Wow. I don't want to say something wrong to you but I can't imagine not seeing my mother for 4 months, let alone not hearing from her.

I do live within a 3 hours drive (or 30 minute flight with a helitaxi) from my family though. So it's very easy for me to go see them.
