on: Ask HN : What side project are you working on?
If you've ever used elasticsearch and needed monitoring and alerting for your cluster without the overhead of running tools in the cluster itself, you'll realize there's not many options. So came up with the idea to separate monitoring and alerting for elasticsearch clusters to create Pulse. Close to launch.

You could easily do this with Elasticsearch. I've created a search UI(
http://www.github.com/romansanchez/calaca) for Elasticsearch, which is what I think you're trying to do. You may want to recreate it on your own for learning purposes.

on: MetricsGraphics.js – D3-based library optimized for visualizing time-series data
Couldn't find in the docs. Does this support epoch timestamps? Does it support more granular x-axis ticks, eg hours, min, sec?

I would honestly just use this to start off and save time, but once things start picking up, data export and in house user mgmt would be the move.

Has any body heard of TIBCO? They've been doing this (flow-based programming) for years(>10).

Does anyone know if the software used for HFT is built in house or is there a particular vendor that specializes in this particular market?

on: What's that?
I'm curious if videos really do scare people away. If you take a look at dropbox and cloudflare they do a really good job at using a video to demonstrate their product. Now taking into consideration the size of dropbox's and cloudflare's users, I'm more inclined to the idea that "videos work".

Not at all. Books are usually my first way to go too, then I'll go to blogs, documentation, etc.

Same here, I learned about the golden ration in my high school Art class. Weird, because it was never mentioned through my college years despite how important and ubiquitous it is.

on: Why are restaurant websites so awful? Because of restaurant culture.
It certainly is.For example, opening a PDF on the Firefox browser(Android) automatically prompts a download of the pdf.

Wouldn't you agree that building a Flash site is harder, more expensive than a simple HTML/CSS site?

Props to the innovation, but in terms of reaching the consumer market I doubt the appeal will suffice for widespread reach. Even if it did, a licensing deal would be more appropriate just for the sake of them investing in the innovation which is what they're good at, not distribution.

on: LivingSocial’s Founder: A Multimillion Dollar Hit Is Not Enough
It does seem quite funny, but it's totally plausible. Although, I highly doubt that it's a definite measure for future success. I myself used to do the same(buy from Sam's Club and resell in school) while in middle school(now a senior in college), but I'm no where near close to a million dollar success...yet :). What would suck though is that if and when I do have some kind of success, this story would be kinda overused, so I do understand where you're coming from. Guess we need to teach our kids something else to make money off of...
