And by "investors" they mean this blogger, right?

Yeah, they open sourced like... two files...
Really? In which parallel universe?
Re:Android's Overblown Fragmentation Problem on Tuesday May 22, 2012 @03:18PM (#4009437)
The problem with Android fragmentation is the impossibility of most developers to reproduce device-specific bugs. Without physical access to one problematic device it could be very hard or even impossible to debug bugs. There's only so much you can do with the emulator. And most developers don't have access to more than very few devices. If you're not a company, it's hard to invest in all sorts of devices.
Re:Show HN: DailyDo.it - a better way to manage your day on Tuesday May 15, 2012 @05:14PM (#3978896)
I don't really use ToDo apps but I can say the app loos very nice design-wise and I like that it's pretty straightforward to use.

Show HN: GIndex an online tool to find/browse GMail attachments

I made this online tool as a weekend's project:https://gindex.tirino.me/It scans your mailbox headers and creates a directory-like tree to browse your attachments* through "folders" such as Date, Type, Sender or Size. So, for example, yo can easily browse all the MP3 files in your emails.It also includes a search page where you can easily find a specific file filtering by all sorts of values...

Wow, it's an amazing app. Congratulations.
I think you people killed this guy's server :P

And after reading the positive comments I really want to see what this app looks like and what it does!

I know why people keeps asking these questions: because it makes YOU look smart. And also because it is/was a fad.

Change its name. It's awful. The idea not so much.
Re:Something is deeply broken in OS X memory management on Monday April 23, 2012 @02:52PM (#3880342)
I fucking hate OS X Lion Vista. I really miss the stability of Snow Leopard. But can't easily go back.
Hey reginaldo, for some reason I cannot enter any text on the terminal, hence, I cannot login. I'm using Chrome 18 on OS X Lion. Just in case, I tried downloading the code and running it locally: same result. Any ideas?
That article is completely wrong from a technical perspective...
Eh... so, they just basically just wanted to get some VC money at any cost. Ok.

These guys need to buy this revolutionary product called a notebook. And no, I don't mean a laptop computer, but a "traditional" notebook. And probably a bunch of pens. A notebook is harder to lose than a scrap of paper and you can hand it over to the next doctor so he can read your note and add his own. Sounds interesting, doesn't it?
Re:OH HAI SEXISM on Thursday March 22, 2012 @01:07PM (#3740754)
Let everyone rant about whatever they think is wrong without involving their employers. It's not like she was campaigning against them. They just wanted to silence her all along.
Enough with trying to copyright ideas...
Re:Picozu - the HTML5 Adobe Photoshop clone on Tuesday February 28, 2012 @10:55AM (#3643557)
Seems more like a Gimp clone. Not even close to Photoshop.
Great, give clueless "project managers" another reason to think anything of value can really be accomplished in a day or two.
Re:Twitter Bootstrap for Opa on Thursday February 23, 2012 @11:39AM (#3625550)
Does that page do a horrible flickering at the top header when you scroll down (or up) fast? It does for me in Safari (OSX Lion). Looks awful. Too bad.
Am I the only one who doesn't believe this? It's way too strange...
Re:UIKit on Monday February 06, 2012 @09:09AM (#3557429)
Yeah, I know how to build a GitHub URL, but I meant the link should be on the webpage...
Re:UIKit on Friday February 03, 2012 @03:10PM (#3548717)
It'd be nice to have download link somewhere :P
Re:I want to code, not configure mail servers on Monday October 31, 2011 @11:05PM (#3180414)
We have to use SendGrid at work and more often than not email gets delayed way beyond acceptable (about 1 hour, for example). It does have great features but if I could choose, I'd chose not to use it... at least not for everything.
Re:List.js on Thursday October 20, 2011 @11:43AM (#3135351)
Also... 6.899kb is confusing. In many countries/locales(?) that would mean almost 7MB. Maybe 6.9kb should be used instead, or 6899bytes or something like that.
