Agreed. I use Flickchart, a service that builds a "best of" list for you over time, and also builds a "highest rated movies you haven't seen yet" list. The other day, the lightbulb went off that I should sort my queue based on that "highest rated movies" list, but I quickly rediscovered that the Netflix queue sorting interface is a hassle to deal with.
I haven't been here for very long, but I can't say it's a "common sight" to see flip phones at coffee shops. :)
On a more serious note, I have to agree with the bit about being a "pro-dog" city. I am constantly amazed at the number of dogs on the Muni, dogs in parks, dogs tied up outside of stores/restaurants, etc.
Dumb question: isn't IFTTT one of the companies that HN always cautions against building (one dependent on the availability of others' sites/APIs)? Or does that only apply for sites dependent on 1 other service?
I was able to find this with a little Googling (no idea on the truthfulness of the article), but I could swear there was another article listing the iPad Mini as one of the last products he worked on:
I remember commenting the story when the first release came out (IIRC it was just play/pause). I'm thrilled to see that this is still going, as there have been plenty of times I've ended up scrambling around for my Mac remote in the dark.
I had figured they needed to be there in person to get past the fingerprint scanner.
Also, Bane's plan centers around presenting himself as a champion of the people -- I had figured he went in guns blazing for the psychological value of the thing (not to mention the possibility of drawing Wayne/Batman out of hiding). Exchange security just being compromised probably wouldn't be a big enough deal for most people (the police officer outside who makes the comment about his money being in his mattress certainly doesn't seem to care!)
I've been wondering for a while how much of that is due to the public chart of Linux/OS X/Windows donations. Does anyone know if Linux users donate at the same amount when that information isn't made available? (ie has there been a sale where you can't see donations broken down by OS during the sale, but the figures get released later?)
Is this really feasible? I don't fly a lot, but the last time I was at an airport, the only areas that invited you to sit down/have a meal were on the far side of the TSA checkpoint, etc.
