nrj··on Implementing a sort of generic, sort of type-safe array in C
It seems that `mylist` should be `l`.
nrj··on [dead]
Scan your network for telnet services.
nrj··on Show HN: Play games together on a big screen using your smartphone
There is a suite of Jackbox games like this that are really good. Particularly, Fibbage: http://jackboxgames.com/project/fibbage
nrj··on Ask HN: Freelancer? Seeking freelancer? (June 2015)
SEEKING WORK - Berlin, Germany or Remote

I’m a freelance developer of many talents. My primary expertise is iOS/Cocoa; I am also very well versed in writing server-side applications in Rails, Node and various Python frameworks. I generally like to work with smaller companies where I can contribute to many areas of the software stack. I particularly enjoy solving problems related to optimizing performance and scaling.

Same. I had to drag the scroll handles to get it to work.
nrj··on Show HN: Take Control of Mac OS X Notifications with Hush
Does this silence the relentless "Software Update" notifications?
nrj··on Ask HN - What's it like living in New York?
This is purely an opinion and totally depends on where your priorities lie. All of these things are true and your overall cost of living will be lower. However you will most likely need a car and your social life won't be as exciting because everything will be happening in the city.
nrj··on Show HN: I made an iPhone app that helps you manage your S3 files
Looks great. Nice design, though I'm not sure that I would ever need to manage my S3 on my phone.

Shameless Plug

Coincidentally I just launched a similar app for OSX - http://bucketsapp.net

nrj··on Show HN: Buckets for Mac
Thanks! I really hope you enjoy it and if you have any feedback you can always find me here.
nrj··on Show HN: Buckets for Mac
Developer here. I appreciate the feedback and I totally understand. The price has now been added to the launch page.
nrj··on Show HN: Euclid for Mac
Developer of Euclid here. I made this app over the last couple weeks mostly to scratch my own itch. As a person who develops a lot of UIs this tool is invaluable to me. Whether I'm working on an iOS app in the Simulator or a web app in the browser, being able to call up fullscreen crosshairs with a hotkey is super helpful to make sure everything lines up. This is also sort of an experiment for me as I've never sold anything on the Mac app store. I would love to know what HN thinks of Euclid, any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks for looking!

nrj··on Google Correlate - Draw
This would also be cool if instead of search terms you could see stock prices.
nrj··on Usability vs. Security in the Context of Apple iOS Mobile Hotspots
It seems to be using a private API method of UITextChecker. [checker suggestWordInLanguage:@"en_US"]; to generate each word in the list. Can anyone explain what this method is actually doing? It doesn't take any sort of argument (other than language), does it literally just give you a random english word?
nrj··on Snag.gy - Paste images directly to the web
Same here. OSX 10.7.4, Chrome 23.0.1271.95.
nrj··on Bing vs. Google
Appears to be broken in Chrome on OS X. After my 5th choice I'm stuck on a gray screen.
nrj··on PayPal Trumps Square’s Deal With Starbucks by Partnering With Discover

nrj··on Ask HN: Chairs for programmers
I am 6'4", and I recently bought a Zody, review here: http://www.geek.com/articles/gadgets/review-haworth-zody-cha...

I actually prefer this to the Aeron chair that I use at my office. I like it so much that I bought a second one for my girlfriend.

nrj··on Show HN: HTML for Mail
HTML is not for e-mail. That's what web browsers are for.
nrj··on Turn.js - The page flip effect for HTML5
Chrome/Snow Leopard here... I can back through all the pages, but when I get to the cover I'm stuck there.
nrj··on Show HN: Check out my Mac app.
I made the OneWay app and posted it here about 2 years ago. I have a fairly decent amount of users still but I'm hoping that maybe some new people can discover it today and give me some feedback! Lately I have been thinking about updating it and putting in the Mac App Store. Anyone been through that process with a free app before? Was it worth it?
