Looks like nearly 50 million accounts have been exposed. That's an alarming amount.. most of which Chtrbox had obtained/scraped themselves without the account owners knowing.

Oh man that was a tough mission to play through... great game though.. definitely compelling and one of the most memorable. I wonder if something like that could ever pass today.

This. I may be biased as a designer, but I definitely prefer products with better UI if it performs similarly. I'm a firm believer in no matter how great your product is, always invest in good design.

I just checked and it's still not available in the US on iOS

Facebook app, Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram all feel a bit repetitive in features. Like they're competing against each other in many ways. WeChat as a single mega app feels very unified. If Mark builds the next WeChat for the West, I'm curious to know how he will unify those apps.
Re:Mark Zuckerberg Wants to Build WeChat for the West on Friday May 03, 2019 @02:28PM (#19820966)
I actually think Instagram is a better candidate to become the next WeChat

Remember when Facebook and Messenger were once a single app? One of the main reasons they separated was to simplify user experience, aside from allowing sms login without a Facebook account, and I can't imagine the two together again at their current state. The reason why WeChat works so well is it's always been chat forward. Their 'moments' works moreso like a lite Twitter feed than Facebook's mess of a newsfeed. And all the misc third party integrations and apps are neatly organized and don't get in the way of chat and moments. Nothing about the interface or experience feels spammy or unnecessary and I never have to think much to get to what I want. At least that's just how I felt heavily using all those apps. There's something about all-in-one/mega apps that Asia does really well.

If he does, they really need to work on the UI/UX side of things because FB and Messenger already feel like bloatware and they're difficult to navigate. WeChat on the other hand, along with KakaoTalk but WeChat especially, does it very well without feeling heavy and annoying to use.
The $35k configuration is still available but by phone/in person order, not online

I also participated in the beta and was quite impressed. In my case, there was no lag and instead, when connection was poorer, the stream quality would get lowered (i.e like Youtube - 1080p to 460p). I think this can be completely resolved with a solid connection.

Speaking on Google leveraging Youtube for Strada, I also think this could be an amazing affiliate opportunity for game developers and content creators. Imagine watching your favorite streamer (or I guess game reviewer) and with a click of a button, without having to download, play the game right from your browser (demo or full game). Great source of income for content creators, great frictionless experience for viewers/consumers, and great tool for developers.

I've always used and now plan to stick with Sinemia. Advanced ticketing through any online site like Fandango, works at any theater, works for 3D/4DX/IMAX/premium formats. It's still limited to 3 movies a month but for the price and all these "better" features it's definitely worth it for me and the girlfriend.

Here's the thing though, Sinemia stuck with these features and pricing model from the start so it made sense financially for them and was still a great deal.

At this point MoviePass seems like they're clinging for life and all my peers on their plan express frustration every time these frequent changes occur. I'd like to link my referral code but I think their own signup offerings are better -

Instagram app login down?

Just went on IG to find that I got logged out with the error "You've been logged out of cheeyoon.

Hey Lasse and team!

We just signed up and are giving it a spin. So far we love how simple and light everything is at the moment. All the features were intuitive as well, even those not explicitly stated i.e. dragging tasks around to reorder for example. Super cool and looking forward to a mobile app ;)

Clearly one of the most beautiful app on Windows. Just installed on my desktop, looking forward to the mac version ;)
I've owned the first gen Replicator 2 for a year with a couple thousand hours of print done. It was honestly a pain in the ass to maintain as it constantly needed cleaning and readjustment. The worst part is the built in extruder was horrible so we'd have to print our own parts for it and build it with bearings and spring - and this would have to be reprinted after every hundred or so hours since the fans would sometimes fail and it'd just overheat and warp it useless. It printed well when it worked but was too much of a hassle to upkeep.
Re:Ask HN: How do you push your code to your server? on Saturday April 05, 2014 @05:13PM (#7538480)
We do everything on localhost with git. We keep a master (server) and develop (ready to push to master) and with develop we branch it off into different major features i.e. feature/login, etc. Once the branches are ready we push them into develop to bug test and when all's good we push the changes to master. We only push to master when the code has been somewhat significantly changed like adding a new feature or fixing bugs.

Not sure if this was mentioned but upon signing up, there are "Creative Crates" which are sets with randomly assorted pieces (up to 600). I think that pretty much covers your need.

How do you proceed with copyright infringement?

Near two weeks ago, I released a mod (or skin) for the popular Flappy Bird game with an original doge character asset. I let the the people of reddit use and mod it for personal use as long as proper credits were attributed, not for commercial purposes. Redditors began contributing to the mod and we had a nice thing going.Dong, the Flappy Bird creator, was a fan: ...

This has big potential although it immediately reminded me of Rap Genius and how they've already expanded into other written media. Keep at it and good luck!

Can anyone recommend any other alternatives? The reasons we chose do.com over Asana and Flow were the simplicity of the interface, great mobile app, free, and CRM support. Totally bummed.
