perssontm··on Ask HN: Google Analytics Realtime reviews?
I just wrote this, http://text.krona.tm/post/11195455994/realtime-stats-with-go...

Its cool, but it needs more work.

perssontm··on Find apartments by commute times
This is great, we thought about something similar when finding a new office. The middle-point between 3 coworkers, with least commutetime for everyone.

We did find something in the end, but it was a really manual process.

Rebranding it and doing an new-office-locator might work as well. :)

perssontm··on "I've got an idea for an app"
Thats a great suggestion, I usually listens for some time and ask a few from my point of view meaningful questions. I usually finish off by asking them to send me an email and summarize their thoughts and to explain it in more detail.

Most of the times, the email never lands in my inbox, but when it finally does, theres usually something to it.

perssontm··on Gamificate your work - part 1 - thoughts only
True, interesting to see more than me got the same idea, not surprisingly though. ;)

Any good examples where its used within businesses?

perssontm··on Linux Journal goes 100% digital
Couldnt agree more about the screen reading. I wrote a frustrated post about it after i got the email: http://text.krona.tm/post/9155074593/linux-journal-goes-100-...

Will definititely checko out Linux Pro Magazine, this will likely cause an effect on their subsriber rates.

perssontm··on Linux Journal goes 100% digital
I really liked the physical version, because it was a nice break from hanging out in front of the screen. But sure, this is likely the signal to go shopping for an e-reader.

perssontm··on Infographic on QR Codes Statistics (JPEG Image)
Do you know from what country does the respondents come from?
perssontm··on Best practice to store passwords for external services?
Yes, I will need the passwords in clear text when doing logins later.

I was thinking about storing the password as cram-md5, but that will require the server to support that. http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/INSTALL.html#crammd5

perssontm··on Best practice to store passwords for external services?
Good idea, sounds like a messy setup though, but that might have to do, since I will use virtual machines for this they will most likely have to be accessible from the net, both of them. But your idea is interesting. Thanks!
perssontm··on Building a Web Application that makes $500 a Month – Part II
Your entire portfolio is very well executed, I might not agree about the usefulness of them all, but you've done it nicely and professional. An inspiration! Thanks for sharing!
perssontm··on Sony Ericsson promotes Android bootloader unlocking
This is actually a reason to reconsider getting a se-phone, some of their hardware have been good for several years, but crippled with bad software(even the android versions) its useless.

I will definitly check their latest hardware more carefully thanks to this.

perssontm··on Google Tightening Control of Android
Agreed, the fragmentation might be caused by the semi-quality of apps and looks. But the mess that the hardware makers are forcing upon arent that much better at the moment.

I've been amazed each time i've put on cyanogenmod to replace the default android that comes with the phone with how much more useful it gets. Smoother, better working and less lag.

I would love to see htc(or any other hardware maker) ship their phones with a cyanogenmodversion that will track cyanogenmods updates. That might even save them some work.

perssontm··on Show HN: My weekend project, written on Friday and Today
Whatever eases the massive pain and frustration involved in developing things for facebook, is imho a good thing.
perssontm··on Ask HN: Do you know any good-looking open source administrative system layouts?
good suggestion, seems to be a bunch to pick from.. thanks!
perssontm··on JavaScript ( (__ = $ + $)[+$] + ({} + $)[_/_] +({} + $)[_/_] )
If all those blackhat-efforts could be put to better use somewhere.. although its fascinating what _can_ be done. They are truly creative in their own way. :)
perssontm··on Portland-based PHP cloud platform PHP Fog raises $1.8M
This seems really interesting, although the latest series of issues with heroku makes me wonder if it ever can be done in a high quality way.

I hope so, if it did, it would be super-fantastic.

perssontm··on Why you absolutely MUST write an API when you write your next app
What would you choose to use as a api, something json-based or soap or what? Which is the easiest for the users/other developers to implement?
perssontm··on Alert boxes now tab-modal in Firefox 4
Really annoying when it happens, although I've always found it possible to click ok in the alert box, and hammer ctrl+w(to close the tab) and it usually works. Sometimes it takes a bunch of ok->ctrl+w combinations before it takes, but it works. Good with a real fix for it though.

I just hope it will make the basic auth username/password-boxes tab-modal as well.

perssontm··on Show HN: My wednesday project Unsocialize This
I think you made an hilarious project, personally i would never bother to use it. But its a cool idea, that even got an implementation. But useful? No, not for me, sorry. :)
perssontm··on MySQL in the cloud at Airbnb
Would it be possible to get some figures of how much you pay amazon for this? And also db-size and queries per day or something?

Good post!

perssontm··on New EC2 Instance Type - The Cluster GPU Instance
Amazon are really pushing the boundaries in the vm area, and also making it easily available and quite affordable as well.

It seems like they will never turn evil, but most big companies do, or perhaps they are just hiding it very well. ;)
