bin is probably a bad name since its name of a directory in linux. how about bintel ?
live text is an iOS feature you could experiment with

Sharing my poem on the birth of my daughter

I cry when I burp I cry when I pee Sometimes I cry Reason without any

I cry when I want milk I cry when I have gas And boy can I cry High pitch and low bass

I cry when u pick me up I cry when u put me down In the middle of the night Loud enough to wake the town

I cry when I poop I cry when I fart But most of all I cry From my Papa when I part !

Happy new year hn !

I think we should have subscription products that respect privacy and data for all successful products; Maps, Youtube, Search, FB, etc.
Cool idea...I would be more interested in auto-documentation tool based on this.

Wow ! Amazing concept and execution...loved it.

Ask HN: Anyone attempted an autodoc tool for Java code based on Deep Learning?

Considering the fact that most java sdk apis have good java docs at the function level and if we take the time to expand them further (one time activity). Would it be possible to come up with an auto documenting tool for java/python code based on deep learning ? I know caption bots can give image -> caption, so couldn't we build something from code -> documentation ? Has anyone tried this...

Re:America’s Need for Skilled Immigrants Isn’t Going Away on Wednesday October 24, 2018 @09:27PM (#18297905)
I think we should have a world without borders and countries, only states. People should be able to live and work wherever they want to irrespective of where they are born. Most of the problems arise because we have divided the world into countries. This is really something the world needs rather than immigration reform

Wow. Really loved that. Pretty insightful...maybe we should elect this guy
Sounds pretty much like the startup weekend experience I had as well. I pitched and helped built team and the site (am a developer) but the business guys behavior just put me off so much that I walked away (he basically changed my idea ...a pivot ?? and had the team build his one)...then they rode our second place success and hired other devs and got something going again...I dont rue them their business success but he should not have joined our team if he wanted to build his idea ...I sometimes wonder if nice guys ever finish first in business :( My experience on that weekend is one of the reasons I dont go to startup weekends anymore...but it was a good lesson and learning experience for me...not something I could pick up from a book

In java to be able to crawl a https url you have to do the following - http://www.coderanch.com/t/134619/Security/JDK-trust-Certifi... Its easier in other languages but its not that hard in java. Just export certificate via IE and save to disk and from the jre/lib/security folder and issue one command keytool -import -alias mycert -keystore cacerts -file d:\mycert.cer. (default password is changeit) Done.
U live in a more idealistic world than I do There is no point climbing someone else"s organized corporate ladder with 10 levels when u can do ur own experiments :) Don't want to be an old man filled with regret on level 3 or 6
