Colleges.

I remember my time as a freshman, getting a bike from Walmart became a necessity after the first couple weeks.

After every winter, I had to fix or buy a new bike just because parts got rusty, broked or vandalize.

So I would totally be happy to just use a shared bike if it was available back then.

Am I the only one that feels the color was just too glaring for my eyes? My eyes couldn't stand looking at the page for 5 secs.


Same here. Maybe "flux" adds to that?


I tried toggling redshift (An Open Source, Ubuntu-friendly alternative for flux) and it does make a little difference, but hardly enough to warrant the "glare".

Personally, I like it. Especially since the way I use rubygems makes me hardly ever land on the frontpage; all other pages are much "whiter".


No, it nearly gave me a seizure. It might just be the super bright IPS panel, though.


Just a quick question about the tech.

Apps are ran in a simulator, and screen caps is being streamed real-time to the client, then drawn on the canvas. Is that correct?


Hi Khangtoh,

That's essentially correct. We do a bit of magic to stream the smallest amount of image data possible (sending mostly-transparent frames if pixel data hasn't changed, etc.). Put simply though: yes, you can think of it as a simulator being streamed to an HTML canvas. But it's taken a long while to get right!


This app is as exciting as the iPhone 5C.


looks really nice, looking forward to using it!


What's stopping you from submitting a pull request with these suggestions?


Two reasons:

a) The author might disagree with my asessment. A pull request would imply that I consider it an error, but I think it's more a question of style.

b) I already waste too much time on HN. Forking a project, trying to understand all of it, making changes, writing a pull request, etc. would probably take me all day but I need to clean the kitchen and take care of the kids and work on some overdue client work that I have been postponing for far too long.


If you open a new issue on GitHub, somebody else could fix it.

I'm struggling to see what is the difference between the native iOS UIActivity vs Ink.

http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/uikit/r...

I thought that's what UIActivity does and many applications are already using this particular feature to share photos between apps.


The primary difference is that Ink allows for applications to register new actions across applications, and to launch content directly into other applications as well. Think of Ink as a cross-application version of UIActivity that's open to anyone registering handlers, as opposed to only being able to use the UIActivity's of your own app or the system provided ones.


The test cloud feature alone is impressive!

It's also not restricted to just using their solution, any native iOS / Android / Whatever platform apps can use them.
