It also seems like the Google Product Forums are down.

Yup, was confused since it didn't say it was down there, then decided to check HN.

Did you guys considering selling it on other platforms besides eBay? (I don't know of any; I'm asking out of curiosity of whether there's any competitors for hosting an auction like this)

P.S. I looked at your site -- I took 252r this semester and loved it, though the topic was different this year.

For some reason, all of the 617 area codes are labeled as "Southern Michigan", but 617 is for Boston/Cambridge.

There's a bug where if you scroll down in one modal, the scroll will be preserved in the other modals you open.

Since you mention the dots, I wonder if carousels gained traction after smartphones (i.e. the paging dots on the iOS home screen).

The screenshots near the top definitely look like part of the web page -- I tried clicking them at first. A border of some sort might help distinguish it (I didn't see the three dots at the bottom at first, and most laptop screens probably won't be able to see it either).

How do the animations work?

You can integrate non-ARC code into an iOS app pretty easily: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8958761/how-to-remove-arc...

Don't you feel that it's -somewhat- misleading to compare blocking ads to illegally downloading ("stealing") content?

For me, tabs distract from the cleanliness of a black (or insert your own background color) terminal.

I'm 18 years old. I'd consider myself politically indifferent, in part because I did research at an organization investigating lobbying and money.

No matter how much of a publicity stunt this was, though, I registered to vote today. Obama was pretty persuasive.

Not to be a stickler, just trying to help, but persistant is misspelled (persistent).

Evernote has a pretty casual user friendly design, too. There are a lot of other options on the mobile apps, but I ignore them and can testify that Evernote Mobile still works fine for me. The two just happen to serve different purposes -- this application is geared towards a more specific one.

Something similar happened to me with a significant other. I thought a bright green umbrella was yellow, but apparently, that was not the case.

That's a really nice monospace.

I love the art at the top. Go Jon!

I'm reading it now, too. There are a lot of examples (it comes with a VM), but the book is still more conceptual than hands-on. The exploit-exercises site posted above looks pretty good.

This is a good point. I went to a Dropbox talk, and one of the employees mentioned, in a similar vein, that a lot of users first use the app on a mobile device and never realize that there's also a desktop client.

It launched with RHEL AMI's. There are no official CentOS AMI's, though there are plenty of images supplied by the community.
