...when I was naive enough to host all 19 free issues on my Linode server (lowest plan).

Thanks for the awesome explanation, Ruben!

Didn't expect this to hit HN so soon :)

I've just fixed all of the download links. Kindly try again.

And I'll forever remember the ironies....

I use these for Hacker Monthly (http://hackermonthly.com):

SendGrid (http://sendgrid.com) - transactional emails (sending digital issues to subscribers).

MailChimp (http://mailchimp.com) - newsletter.

Linode (http://linode.com) - VPS hosting.

Harvest (http://getharvest.com) - invoicing (for corporate customers + advertisers).

FetchApp (http://fetchapp.com) - digital delivery (for single issue purchase). Previously used E-Junkie.

PayPal - payment gateway (sadly, one of the only choice for Malaysian).

Gumroad (http://gumroad.com) - I use this as a 'PayPal alternative' for customers who wish to pay directly with their credit card (and refuse to have anything to do with PayPal).

Pivotal Tracker (http://pivotaltracker.com) - project management for HM's backend app

ODesk (http://odesk.com) - finding and managing my remote team (currently in the size of 4).

Crashed upon opening on my Snow Leopard. It doesn't say which OS X version it's built for?

Huge tentacle-ye monster (or at least, close): http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5026950

+1 for Hacker Web. Works perfectly across my iPhone/iPad/Macbook. Interesting (yet effective) way to manage long nested comments too.

Jekyll all the way. I even presented about it in my local meetup group: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GV6n9LU2B2w

The best "native feeling" HTML5 app I've seen is hnmobile: http://cheeaun.github.com/hnmobile/ ,which I use everyday and recommend to everyone who read HN on iPhone.

The author also went through a great details on how he built it: http://cheeaun.com/blog/2012/03/how-i-built-hacker-news-mobi...

Highly recommend Harumi Murakami's "What I Talk About When I Talk About Running" if you wish to read more inner thoughts about running.

What's the source of this news?

Some infographics if you couldn't get enough of it (as if): http://www.inc.com/magazine/201109/inc-500-infographic-a-day...

I was there when he gave that talk in Singapore Reddot Ruby conference and love it. Highly recommended if you use GitHub at all.

pro tip: be sure to go up to Zach and ask for rare octocat stickers after the talk!

I've blogged about our workflow: http://blog.hackermonthly.com/making-hacker-monthly.html

Wait, there must be some confusion. I am the author of the css of my website.

Fixed :)

We do. Every single one of them.

same thing happened to me when I posted my second domain: http://friendsdomains.com/bearwithclaws

Do yourself a favor before watching the NBA finals -- check out this 5 minutes preview of the finals: http://www.bballbreakdown.com/2012-nba-finals-preview-heat-v...

Best analysis I've seen yet.

The site is painfully slow if you're not on ridiculously fast internet connection. One simple page took more than a minute to load.

Richerd and I built http://sinkorship.com/ about a month ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3899231. Got on the HN front page for 10+ hours, tons of attention, tweets, press etc.

Except nobody paid.

"Idle time" would be a better word.

Is the 3 "o" intentional?

Email me at cheng.soon@hackermonthly.com. I'm sure there will be a way to fix this.

And this one too (when we first launched): http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1394526

Thanks (and thank you for contributing), Yan! Hope you'll enjoy the print and digital subscription.

Thanks Ashish. Nieman Lab did a pretty good interview about the magazine awhile back: http://www.niemanlab.org/2012/02/hacker-monthly-its-the-best...

An unrelated nitpick: make your paragraph line-height at least 25px.

In 150 words (the transcript):

"I think successful entrepreneurs probably come in all sizes, shapes and flavors. I'm not sure there's any one particular thing. For me, some of the things I've described already I think are very important. I think really an obsessive nature with respect to the quality of the product is very important and so being an obsessive compulsive is a good thing in this context. Really liking what you do, whatever area that you get into, even if you're the best of the best, there's always a chance of failure so I think it's important that you really like whatever you're doing. If you don't like it, life is too short. I'd say also, if you like what you're doing, you think about it even when you're not working. It's something that your mind is drawn to and if you don't like it, you just really can't make it work I think."

Here's the PDF (from Hacker Monthly) if anyone wants to print out in nice magazine format: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/48613464/How%20To%20Read%20Math.pdf
