beh | 5 years ago | on: Over 275 days since Equifax’s data breach settlement and no one has been paid
Right — curious how this company is truly doing anything different than Equifax? You’re still aggregating sensitive personal information and selling it to verifiers. What’s the long term plan to actually make a difference?
beh | 6 years ago | on: 3D printed hands are giving Syrian children a second chance
Outside of the atrocities related to the Syrian confict, the highlight of this story is really the affect that making expensive industrial grade technology like 3D printing accessible to a wider audience can have on how things are made.
I've seen similar stories from other 3D printing companies like Formlabs on healthcare related innovation that's been enabled by more accessible digital fabrication technology:

Formlabs is making strong progress towards making this kind of technology more accessible. Their ~$3500 3D printers have enabled similar innovations in healthcare; likely why they're now valued at >$1B... I've been watching the progress of this prosthetic technique [https://formlabs.com/blog/shirley-technique-facial-prosthesi...] and customization of orthotics [https://formlabs.com/blog/father-helps-son-with-cerebral-pal...]

If you haven't had the chance to read one of Bunnie's hardware teardowns, you're missing out. His teardown of the Form 2 3D printer (https://www.bunniestudios.com/blog/?p=4641) is a great example of his work.

As someone just getting started with front end development and who learns best by tinkering, this is a great resource.
What are some other Bootstrap focused resources to learn front end development?

This is great.
Suggestion – add Yelp ratings for destinations. I find myself taking long trips from point A to point B, and always feel like I'm missing out on things along the way. If I knew that the world's best coffee shop (according to Yelp) was just 4 minutes off my route, I'd love to stop.

What made you settle on your current space? It may be hard to generalize as a lot has to do with personal preference, but what do you feel coworking spaces in Portland are missing?

Check out Ecoute. A gorgeous UI "designed to be minimal, small and pretty so it doesn't take a lot of space on your screen. Just what you need to play your library."

I made the same mistake by submitting this version of the article. It's inter-TechCrunch blog-spam. A one paragraph teaser that leads to the full article: http://eu.techcrunch.com/2010/02/16/guest-post-how-we-built-... which has already been submitted to HN http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1130074
beh | 16 years ago | on: How to Replace IMAP
I'm very hopeful for Letters, a project just taking off under the leadership of some pretty big names: Gruber, Rands, Brent Simmons. They're hoping to collectively create a "lean and programmable IMAP email client, with plugin and automation APIs, designed for developers and power users." While still sparse and very early-stage, their vision document is ambitious: http://pastie.org/785269 If something comes from this, it'll definitely be a step forward to modernize email clients.
