Domain selling is a long game. In order to make any money you'll be waiting a long time for someone to come to you, who is desperate for the name. If you want to offload it asap, don't expect to make much more than you paid for it.

I would rather argue for infinity, than injure or kill another human being.

At the time of writing this comment, only 25 percent of people have realised that this is satirical.

Honest question:

Why is this preferable to using:

vim/emacs/subl/nano ~/.ssh/config ?

Cool thanks. We're working on something where it's quite problematic getting zero byte files occasionally. It's nothing to do with the speed, because the file is always there milliseconds later. I imagine it's just that our callback is triggered by the filepicker.io api moments before the file is available on your read slaves?

I hadn't noticed Filepicker had that neat mobile solution. Very nice. The only problem I've ever had with Filepicker, is that sometime if you query their returned URLs instantly after you've uploaded a file, there's no file there.

P.S Holy tiny type. My eye sight is failing, it's the end of the day. I'm dyslexic. At least the site doesn't break when you zoom in.

Bravo! How difficult was it making the characters posable?

Interestingly, I think blogging will come back full circle for 'hacker' bloggers, and go back to basics.

As the other mentions in another [post](http://www.dev.gd/20130211-your-blog-navigation-is-superfluo...), blog navigation is bordering on superflous. How often do you stay to read the rest of a blog, and if so, do you go through complex CMS tagging systems?

I'm currently exploring the option of using Cake to generate new posts, and a simple list of links on the root domain for navigation (which I believe I should be able to append to with Cake). This will generate static HTML that I can rsync to my server, or push to S3.

Nice tool, thanks! I was actually searching for something this exact tool earlier today.

I wonder if you'd be able to add some of the larger web font suppliers? I've used fonts.com, typekit.com and Google's offering, it would be nice if you could switch from 'browser friendly' to 'fonts.com' and compare fonts in their library.

Bloviation of the highest order!

Save yourself 5 minutes:

After stumbling over the near-insurmountable pile of quotes, I believe the crux of the message is this tweet: https://twitter.com/stop/status/299019199030886400.

Otherwise it's that Microsoft tried to meld laptop and tablet ahead of Apple, and (implied by the author) failed.

I don't think much of this article.

Its only references are links out to other news articles, the rest is just ropey opinion.

This is effectively an advert for his services and he's doing his best to scare people, although he doesn't appear to know what he's talking about.

"Most hackers are simply greedy."

Says who? Is there a survey of Hackers in which they listed their motivations? I would to have a look.

"HTML 5, the latest version of the HTML standard, allows users to personalize their browsing experience, and lets businesses build browser-based applications. But reducing the layers of technology between the browser and internal systems removes obstacles for would-be hackers. As businesses make greater use of popular social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter, hackers can gain access to personal data that can be used for phishing or other "social engineering" attacks. And there's also the potential for corporate networks to be infected by malware from social networking sites."

Honestly, this paragraph is just a train wreck and sounds like something written by a grade-schooler. It's a mish-mash of unrelated sentences that might sound scary to an ill-informed employee, but contains zero substance.

Zero meaningful advice given at the end, to carry on the theme, just a link to his company.

I didn't realise Readwrite would publish such a lazy effort.

"Here's some buzzwords, some hazy definitions, and a few general misunderstandings - all in a 20 minutes rush job. Please give my company advertising space and traffic."

OK. Where do we go from here?

We're all stuck in an infinite loop! :D

Congratulations on finishing your app. It's targeting a very very very specific user base, but it's neat all the same. I'm not sure you'll get much love on HN...

Maybe you could add some bulk with more mechanical equations for real world usage, then flesh it out into a mathematics-for-engineers application of some sort. I'm sure no one remembers all their Mechanical formulae off the top of their head!

One thing I would say is have a look at Holo UI. The cupcake/donut styles are looking a bit worse for wear nowadays.

Code on!

It's quite difficult to decipher what Cloudiff is initially, so at the very least there's some work to be done there.

However, I think it definitely has legs. I've been waiting for a unified Domain management panel, let alone one for cloud servers. I can see myself logging in first-thing every morning, casting an eye over statistics and notifications.

Isotope could be used nicely here, but each page of the app has a totally different layout and structure, and as such I find it distracting.

I appreciate it's in early stages, but for a Foundation styled site it's very cluttered. In general it feels messy.

I'd imagine the point of Cloudiff is to get server information fast, so after the leg work of consolidating the cloud service APIs and connecting them to Cloudiff, you're solving a design and UI problem. The inconsistent layout, dodgy icons, and distracting isotope plugin, don't help to solve it.

I'll keep an eye on it. I like the idea.
