I agree if page numbers are not visible. If page numbers are visible, next and previous page perfect sense.
Re:How Do You Beat iPhone? on Tuesday December 22, 2015 @02:59PM (#10779980)
At least from my point of view, the perceived value of the iPhone increases with each additional device and service of Apple you use. I recently had the opportunity to test a Samsung: While the device itself was great, I didn't even try to get my music or photos synced. I'm so used of Apple flawless integration with each other. That's the challenge.

Nice job. For somebody like me without much experience, I was able to get my domain secured in 30 minutes.
Re:Poll: How many HN iOS users actually use Siri? on Monday June 10, 2013 @05:47PM (#5857396)
I use it sometimes when I'm cycling to play certain song, playlist or album, or to get the current time. If it would understand me, it would be even useful.

That's awesome. I was thinking to build a similar site focusing on purely on eCommerce and was worried about legal aspects of this.
Re:SiteInspire — web design inspiration on Sunday January 06, 2013 @05:46PM (#5018072)
I'm curious on a legal aspect: Do you check with the website owners before posting?
We need a demo/example :)
I'm blown away by the speed. Can you share a few on the architecture behind to archive this? Edit: I just saw on your blog that you already working on a blog post. I'm looking forward :)

Austrian Beverage Company. Any guesses? ;-)
Indeed, I'm not surprised. Facebook's value is not its technology, but being the standard of communication for almost 600 million users.

Ehm, they are either using obsolete tags or failed escaped the & sign. Nothing to be worried about.
Re:Exercise More to Hack Better on Thursday November 04, 2010 @04:55AM (#1868202)
I usually start and finish my day exercising. However, motivation comes from recording each workout to measure my progress and adjust training accordingly. It's hacking your body and any kind of hacking is fun :-)
Re:What fragmentation? 77% of devices run Android 2.1 or 2.2 on Wednesday November 03, 2010 @05:20AM (#1864271)
Most applications don't use any sensors at all, yet you have to deal with the situation if you plan to use them. And there is a big difference in designing an application for devices having only a touchscreen keyboard and devices having a physical keyboard.
Re:What fragmentation? 77% of devices run Android 2.1 or 2.2 on Wednesday November 03, 2010 @04:54AM (#1864217)
Software is one side of the coin. The other side is hardware and developers are dealing with different screen sizes, different sensors, different keyboards and so on. Compared to Apple's iPhone, you have to spend a lot of time making your app work on every device.
