It's darned difficult to make a new and fresh word puzzle app, in today's heated word game universe, but my kiddo and I tried, and this is our take.1. The Stage - A box. Words popping out with missing letters. Ominous looking tendrils peeking out from the top2. The Goal - Keep your words from going off the top.3. Your Moves - A moving buffet of random letters to choose from, and the riskier...

"... you have 10 WhatsApps (which are glorified simple CRUD apps)" - wow., just wow. So you are calling one of the most reliable, well architected, and secure messaging apps <- a simple CRUD app? Oh HN, you never fail to amuse me. This one's a certified entry for http://n-gate.com/hackernews/

Does this impact the reachabilityForLocalWiFi method in apple's Reachability sample, which appears to use an IPV4 address internally:

// IN_LINKLOCALNETNUM is defined in <netinet/in.h> as 169.254.0.0.

localWifiAddress.sin_addr.s_addr = htonl(IN_LINKLOCALNETNUM);

Couldn't agree more. The UX + Service suckiness just takes it to another level. Don't even get me started about how the shuffle, repeat buttons look and feel. It appears that the HIG is no longer read by those who work @ Apple any more...

Can't wait to send in the threatening email that i received from AT&T stating explicitly that my "unlimited" bandwidth will be throttled because i happened to be in a high usage area. Seriously there should be a place where everyone who received such emails can post them en masse...

If encryption is your main requirement, you could try AnyLocker - http://anylockerapp.com

It's main selling point is that it encrypts all your data (notes, pictures) with SHA-256 before storing it on your device. Give it a try (Disclosure - i am the developer in the team that published this app)

Reviews/feedback always welcome...

Re:Ask HN: What is better: artist.domain.com or domain.com/artist? on Friday May 31, 2013 @08:08AM (#5798064)

If the artist focuses on the art, and the art is good, then why would it matter if it's artist.domain.com or domain.com/artist?

A NewYork minute wouldn't have sufficed to get you a WWDC MMXIII ticket

WWDC MMXIII sold out in under 2 minutes. Are conferences reserved for dexterous humans only?

I can totally relate to you. Same boat. Anytime you feel totally down, please think of the person who loves you the most.. That has always helped me. It could be your sweet-heart or mom or dad or whoever., but just close your eyes and visualize 'em hugging you..

Oh and if you are really hurting, please consult with a doctor.. If not for u, for those who love u, please do...

Dan's the best... I am sure 5by5 will do just fine with such superhits like Hypercritical, Back to Work, Build and Analyze etc...

Taking a cue from Dan, i wish Gruber the best, though honestly i won't be listening to him any more
