But.. but.. HN told me there's a war on RSS!

Don't you just love progress? Time to redo stuff that already works!

Uh, what? I don't even get to decide whether or not the photo is worth sharing after I take it? That's actually worse.

I used to be a Noscript user, but I just got sick and tired of clicking 2-3x as much as usual, just to get every page to load correctly. Normal process:

-Page loads, great

-Click on something but it doesn't respond

-Shit, probably JS

-Click NoScript, see a list of sites

=This is where is really gets good=

-Stare at the list of sites noscript is blocking on the page, arbitrarily unblock one that 'seems' like it would be hosting the code that runs the thing I'm trying to fix, based only on domain name

-Refresh the page, try clicking that thing again, if it doesn't work, repeat the process

I wasted many hours of my life on that process, and what did I gain from it? Security? Not really, since I would randomly enable sites to run JS. So I uninstalled it. Worst case scenario, I get a virus and have to reformat, and lose an hour or two. I don't have any important data on my hard drive.

So, Noscripters, are you guys just really concerned about security or is it a psychological thing - as in, it feels good to be able to be the boss of your browser and tell sites whether or not they can run JS?

Sell it to the highest bidder!

Is it safer/healthier to run on grass than concrete? I like to run laps on a soccer field near my apartment rather than on city sidewalks so I don't have to deal with traffic. But I seem to be the exception in my neighborhood. I see tons of people running down the streets, but nobody running on grass. I assumed that a softer running surface would create less impact on my joints and prevent injury and reduce wear and tear on my body. But I could be wrong. Just curious.

That makes me feel better.. I bought a 2006 Accord last November with 70k miles on it for $11,350.

Categorized popularity. If a user in interested in a topic, they would have the ability to find the prominent voices related to that topic.

And anyone who has ever been concerned about online privacy has been operating under the assumption that it doesn't exist. Your point?

I think I remember reading that they basically scrapped everything and started over around 2007.

Imagine Facebook with this rule: when a user posts content, that content is rated by popularity (number of likes/shares/comments). Every user has a popularity score. Users can opt in to being ranked on a public popularity list in, let's say, up to 3 categories like Sports, Tech, Music, Politics, etc. Any FB user can check out the "top 50" lists for topics they're interested in, and subscribe/friend/follow people that are on those lists.

Fortunately for OP, it doesn't matter if people want or need to consume blogs natively on their phones. It matters if business owners want to be able to tell people that their business has an iPhone app. And they do.

The obvious answer: Employees who need extra sleep during the day should simply sleep longer during the night so they won't need to sleep while they're at work. At least, that's the typical view of the employer.

After reading this thread, I think it's safe to say that nobody knows how to search anymore.

Just wanted to let you know that I don't think you're crazy, and I really like the design of your app. Most people are so used to scrolling that to see it unused probably upsets them. And the scroll wheel is easy to use with your finger, but not so much with your eyes to re-adjust. Perhaps you could take advantage of the scroll wheel and when a user scrolls with it, you could flip to the next page or section?
