Have you heard of this car company called Porsche? I think they have some of the answers you're looking for.
Re:React Native at Airbnb on Tuesday June 19, 2018 @02:38PM (#17349207)
Others have been coming out and talking about similar experiences with React Native. This thread made the rounds on Twitter and Medium fairly recently:

The conversations on Twitter are unfortunately not of the same fidelity as the ones on a traditional forum where you can actually compose full thoughts.

Perhaps it's better to say that Twitter has sucked up most of the attention of those same people.

Subtle distinction but huge difference imo because I can't go follow those same people on Twitter and expect the same type of conversation as they would have made on HN.

Yeah for me it was not worth it at all. I was prescribed in High School through College but I stopped taking them in College because I turned into a irritable zombie. No amount of productivity boost is worth the emotional and physical damage that stuff does to you.

Also Exercise and Diet helped far more in the long run.

There's a funny chrome extension to be made here. I'll let someone else take the initiative.

People won't use Twitter's poll feature much.

Wait what, are you serious. You might have just changed everything I thought I knew about life and cooking....

I'm gonna try this out.

I was neither rejected nor accepted but then again, I didn't apply.

I was neither rejected nor accepted, I'm pretty happy with that :)
Re:Gobble (YC W14) Raises $10.75M for Its 10-Minute Dinner Kits on Thursday October 29, 2015 @01:47PM (#10472885)
I've got an idea.

Step 1: Throw some rice in a rice cooker, add water, press button.

Step 2: Cut up 2 sausages, throw it in the microwave for 2 minutes

Step 3: Put one or two cups of frozen vegetables in a bowl, add water, and steam in the microwave for 4mins.

Step 4: Throw the sausages and the vegetables on the rice, add Soy Sauce to taste.

Optional: Feel free to make some eggs on a pan. Should only take 2-3mins. You can add that into the mix of Rice/Sausage/Veggies.

Aaaaand that's dinner!

As abtinf pointed out, market share != profit share.

What percentage of smartphone profits does the iPhone garner in Europe?

I could use like 5 more characters though :)
Absolutely not. It doesn't make any sense. They sold me an item for $2. The item's new value is now many times that due to findings of my own accord.

Re:The porn industry is in a bind on Thursday October 15, 2015 @08:21PM (#10396812)
You should do an AMA here in this thread about the industry!

I'll start. What are some common misconceptions about the industry in general and what do you think about the accuracy of the article and how it paints the industry?

Re:If You're Not Paranoid, You're Crazy on Tuesday October 13, 2015 @07:12PM (#10384090)
That's the problem though. It's not about you. It's about the average user who doesn't understand all the implications of actions he/she is asked to take or permissions he/she is asked to give to a third party.

It's not about "us" the HN readers. It's about everyone else, and that's what's scary.

Just because I'm a really good driver doesn't mean I won't get into a car crash.

You can do that as an iOS developer too right? E.g. things like pull to refresh were designed by lone developers.

It moves the industry forward? Also having the empathy to recognize that if you've built your success on top of free tools then it bodes well to contribute back to that same community that enabled your success. Think of it like an Alumni network.
