iamjustlooking··on Happypenguin.org: Hard drive crash, a cautionary tale
Having a mirrored RAID array would have helped here as well, as long as you don't mistake it for a backup solution.
iamjustlooking··on New browser RockMelt oozes into beta
I'm not social enough for this browser, I can't "connect" for an invitation if I don't have facebook and there is no other method to get an invite? I hate it when websites do that.
iamjustlooking··on Ask HN: Avg. replaced Karma in top bar?
If you have a high average are your comments better? Are you bad at commenting with a low average? What should this number tell me?
iamjustlooking··on 99 Out Of 100 Programmers Can’t Program – I Call BS
Agreed, It's funny how if I take a look at facebook and view classmates profiles I appear to be the only one who still programs despite us all taking software engineering in College. Maybe that's the effect of the current economic climate but at the time everyone else seemed to just view it as a high paying career path and couldn't tell you the difference between a variable and a constant.
iamjustlooking··on Bing search gets social with your Facebook friends
What annoys me more are websites that only let you log in with a facebook account. I don't want a facebook account!
iamjustlooking··on $4.50/Month SheevaPlug Dedicated Server ($140 Setup)
500GB bandwidth included.
iamjustlooking··on Bit.ly Raises $10 Million Series B, Still Growing Like Crazy
How do you even begin to make a return on this money? Put redirects in a frame and put an ad in? Charge for some sort of premium service and hope people don't go to one of many other url shortening services?
iamjustlooking··on A VC: What A CEO Does (continued)
Is HBR in your comment Harvard Business Review?
iamjustlooking··on Y Combinator Saved Our Bacon
In your new system please don't ignore people who have been blacklisted, at least respond with a reason or if you can't do that at least acknowledge that a human has read it and isn't going to take action so poor people like the author doesn't have to sit around wondering if he's even going to get a response.
iamjustlooking··on Ben Huh offers to buy Reddit
It would be interesting to see what changes they would make, that is if any, I'm sure they would though.
iamjustlooking··on How did non US citizen founders funded by YC get allowed to work in the US?
I sincerely hope that he doesn't follow any advice in this thread except for getting a lawyer because if he willy nilly applies for stupid things he is not likely to succeed in getting (Just apply for a GC? Come on what dream world are some HN'ers living in?) it will severely complicate any future correct application.
iamjustlooking··on Signs of an awesome coder
This current generation of youth has diluted the meaning of the word awesome so that even eating a snickers bar is awesome. He wrote awesome 23 times in that article alone, never mind the other articles he's written. Perhaps "awesome" is correct even as you redefine it.
iamjustlooking··on Celebrate Whyday
I believe pretty popular relationship advice on reddit is that if you catch your SO cheating on you then you should pack up and leave without saying a thing. Apparently it really gets to the other person as they don't really know why they left.
iamjustlooking··on Google launching a Chrome OS tablet on Verizon, goes on sale November 26
But you just compared the acquisition of Android to the launch date of the iPhone. Are you saying that the development and manufacture of the iPhone all took place in 2007?
iamjustlooking··on Is The Web Dead?
I'm not so sure that any particular website will live or die from a lack of API or mobile support outside of the social type websites.
iamjustlooking··on The Best Email I've Ever Received
I think you're damaging yourself with these snide remarks. Your comments are nasty in themselves but you're hiding it under the pretense of trying to improve zed.
iamjustlooking··on [dead]
What has actually been done on this? Any backend work or just mockups?
iamjustlooking··on Richard Stallman answers Reddit's top 25 questions.
Sadly no Micro$oft though.
iamjustlooking··on Chromium Blog: Release Early, Release Often
I keep getting burned by chrome's automatic updates. They have twice killed xmltree extension I use and I have to wait for the extension owner to update it.
iamjustlooking··on The DuckDuckGo Community
Maybe you could do something with the domain you bought instead of just squatting on it with the intent to profit.
iamjustlooking··on DoDont: A New Social Network; Bring On The Snarky Comments
I never sign up to these types of websites because I don't want to use a social login. I'm sure I'm not the target audience though!
iamjustlooking··on Hands-on with Hulu Plus: is it worth $10/month?
Yep, I have a HD antenna and watch network TV in 1080p. Sadly I think most people are conditioned to believe that you cant get these channels without cable.
iamjustlooking··on Higher-Order Perl is available for free as a PDF
Your post suggests a lack of critical thinking on your part.

1. I sell my book to a used book store.

2. You buy the book I sold to the book store.

3. Somehow the author also takes a cut in that sale?

iamjustlooking··on Enter Mouseless
The movement delay seems significant. Arching your hand like that with no support of the mouse to rest on seems wrong too. I just don't know what the advantage having mouse like movement without a mouse gives.
iamjustlooking··on IPhone 4's supposed signal woes aren’t unique, and may not be serious
Aren't you supposed to preface it with a description?

"I recently bought an iPhone 4 for my wife Emily"

"I recently bought an iPhone 4 for my daughter Emily"

"I recently bought an iPhone 4 for my dog Emily"

iamjustlooking··on Show HN: Mocksup, my mockup prototyping & review webapp
That whole select box background change thing is slick! Very cool design.
iamjustlooking··on How I Can Has Cheezburger became a web empire
Are you referring to the lolcat derivative websites you guys have or is there something big going on behind the scenes?
iamjustlooking··on How I Can Has Cheezburger became a web empire
I'm sure from a reporter perspective it doesn't appear like there's much of a technical side to what appears to be a wordpress blog with cats on it.
iamjustlooking··on Caching COUNT with PHP and Redis
Depending on your database engine and WHERE conditions it may not be cached as you assume it to be.
iamjustlooking··on 101 ways to Embed Content: The State of Embedly
Wait, so you're just gonna keep this free service going? Or is this product going to turn out to be "hey our API is still free but only for N requests a month"?
