on: Ask HN: Website concept for better dialog in society
In public forum, anonymity is achieved by pseudonimity (one has to go to a trouble of creating account under fake name). But a service that doesn't have logins, the anonimity is default and easy.

But they are not one-on-one. They are public. They are not anonymous.

I wish we knew the Hacker News equivalent for the army people of US and Russia who are in charge of the launch codes. I would post this link there.

I agree with Parasolid being the best geometry kernel out there! (It's quite expensive though, around $60k per year + revenue share)

Great stuff. I was hoping somebody would integrate source code cross referencing with Git. Hopefully Github will integrate your tool with all their repos and it will be seamless for end users.

I'll recommend Nicholas Taleb's "The Black Swan" to the authors of this prediction tool. Statistics cannot be used to "predict" future behavior of a complex system.

That's a good suggestion. Thanks. Not sure if hotkeys like WinKey or ⌘ can be detected in javascript, but ctrl+drag seems doable.

Yes, it should work find in Opera too (except Opera doesn't support WebGL, so it will use Canvas 2D, hence will be comparatively slower). It's not on supported list, because I don't test on it regularly.

3DTin does use Web Workers. However the smoothing algorithms generate too much data if there are lot of cubes and/or the smoothness is high, that makes the tab/browser unresponsive. The problem of vanished parts of the model at higher smoothness is a known one (happens when WebGL is the backend). I've further optimizations planned in the near future that should improve the performance gradually and fix the bugs like vanished parts. Stay tuned. Thanks for the feedback.

Yes, the kind of security you describe at Manila airport, seems common in european international airports - I've seen it in Amsterdam, Frankfurt too.

on: The Case for Single Founder Startups
Thanks rgrieselhuber. It was very touching to see someone put in words what I learnt myself in past 1.5 years. We may not have co-founders, but we find people like us all around the world thanks to this connected world.
