New comment by Slashed in "Why read books if we can’t remember what’s in them?"

I'd say it depends on what and how one is reading.

It's not the same case when I read a programming book with examples, in contrast to novels. I tend to remember the former better because I'll usually try out most examples from the book.

Ask HN: Sound streaming in M.Google Voice?

Slashed — Tue, 04 May 2010 22:38:38 +0000

Does anyone know how they achieved sound streaming in mobile Google Voice web app?

Sorry if this is well known, but I'm really curious.

Thanks.

When I launched it, it was drawing fps already.

The command to show FPS is "/fps 1".

I thought this was another April Fools', and I was wrong. I've installed and it magically works.

Can't believe it.

New comment by Slashed in "No Really: Microsoft giving away Windows Image with redistribution allowed"

Slashed — Mon, 22 Mar 2010 21:43:14 +0000

First time I stumbled upon this version of Windows about half a year ago. I actually installed it on one of my laptops. When it's BOOTed, the "GUI" is pretty much like in Safe-Mode, only in full display resolution, i.e. a blue background and a console window. I don't remember exactly, but it was missing a lot of libraries.. so I couldn't actually install much software. Though, I'm sure it's possible to install all the missing libraries via Microsoft's website.

Heard that the top level domain linode.com was black holed due to its association with malicious activity [...]

Reading this sentence, reminded me of Google using Linode when that incident happened with Chinese hackers.

OK, if Apple will release such an app... let's not start this topic. Instead, consider this example:

I've built a software that allows publishers to distribute their books on many devices at once: Kindle, iPad, iPhone, Sony Reader, etc. Do you think Apple and Amazon will allow me to release such apps for their devices? I doubt it. The only way left for me is to write it as a webapp. Such control is bad for free market in general.

I have always thought that achievement is when one accomplishes his/her goal, be it $1B worth startup or a level-up in a game.

Though, I think the author is talking about useful achievements. This gets a bit tricky: it's all about how you see the world. In my opinion, I would make a useful achievement when I influence people to take some action. This could be: subscribing to my webapp or even making people follow me on twitter, if that was my goal. The key word here for me is - influence. Nevertheless, achievement is all about reaching your goal. At least that's how I see it.
