Yikes. I wonder if I got throttled due to Hacker News traffic. Can you share more details?

Thanks for catching this! Will fix.

Hello,

Yes, there are a few options available already. This was a passion project of mine, and I am reviewing all the use cases I can add. My primary aim was to have a website that works on both desktop and mobile. Did not prioritize mobile apps/CarPlay/Android Auto support yet.

That's embarrassing... will fix the title and favicon.

Thanks for the feedback regarding addresses, on my TODO list to add support for dynamic search.

Not very accurate if it's short distances. What challenges did you face with the patent application?

Thanks for the feedback. When you say wildly different, was the weather different? Or did the application behave differently? I will definitely consider sticky URLs!

I don't think you can equate me leaving an employer "early", for some definition of early, to theft. As long as the contract is "at will employment", which majority of American job offers are (sorry for my America centric view), then the contract is AT WILL, in both directions. In my mind there is no ethical, moral or legal lapse.

Just curious, commit for how long? I have been in situations before, where I have accepted an offer, started a job and was informed 3 months later that the company mis-calculated the budgets/revenues and have to let go a bunch of people. Guess who gets let go first? The people who started the latest.

Doesn't this go both ways? In this day and age in America, there's no loyalty going in either direction, employer or employee.

That and Mary Barra. The change usually comes from the top.

In Sanskrit, there's a poem about hand gestures:

"Yato hasta stato drishti"..."Where the hand is, the eyes follow"

"Yato drishti stato manaha"..."Where the eyes go, the mind follows"

"Yato manaha stato bhava"..."Where the mind is, there is the feeling"

"Yato bhava stato rasa"..."Where the feeling is, there is mood"

What? Why do you say this isn't possible? This is a series hybrid vehicle, not a pure electric vehicle. Series hybrid has been done for a long time now: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diesel-electric_transmission

This is nothing new technology-wise.

This seems like a whole lot less effort and simpler design (of course without the Bluetooth control). If some one is looking for a cheaper entry point, this is great: http://www.instructables.com/id/Sous-vide-cooker-for-less-th...

As a color blind person, I could not tell any difference between trusted proxies and un-trusted proxies.

Indian farmers were doing something similar back in 2009: http://www.pcworld.com/article/168895/article.html

I guess we are getting closer and closer to the Pizza delivery technologies described in Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash. Entire industries dedicated to getting things into consumer's hands faster and faster. The "now" in "I want it now" keeps getting shorter and shorter.

HN is turning into a Reddit clone, with all the karma mongering included.

How does one enter the B2B market? Does B2B mean you're solving how two companies do business with each other?

Would you care to explain or elaborate?

I don't want to get too personal but do you go about your life this negatively and sarcastically all the time? How sad it must be.

It's probably because you scare them. Here are people who have spent several years in school to gain a certificate that shows they know how to program. You may never be a competition to them in the job market but the knowledge that someone spent close to 12 weeks (not even a semester) and was able to land a basic job programming is probably rubbing their sense of entitlement the wrong way. Me personally, I have a M.S. in Computer Science but I work with a group of people, who, with sheer will and hard work, are in much better programming situation than I am. Not everybody gets to, or needs to, write a compiler or an operating system. Most of the applications are crud applications. Just because you are not of Linus Torvald's caliber doesn't mean that you are not a programmer.

Except that I cannot create an account for my son who's 6 months old. I have to create an account with a false birthday.
