There are no options. It is as if the world water supply is suddenly owned by a guy you cannot trust. This is bad.

Right after the story broke that @ElonJet denied Elon's $5k offer he started buying up Twitter shares. https://twitter.com/TweeterTweaker/status/151146344287544115...

- My to do list lives in a single text file.

- There is a dashed line below the items that have been completed.

-----------------------------------------------

- Below that line are the remaining tasks

- in the order I want to tackle them.

- I spend a lot of time looking at these items.

- I keep reordering the items while trying to think of ways to solve them.

- When a task is finished, it moves up above the line.

- Over time, the line is slowly bubbling down.

- Yet, the list below keeps growing.

This is disappointing and it changes how I think of HN.

Upvoted. I guess the author could do another great article, claiming the exact opposite.

This WebRTC telephony solution offers high quality audio. When I first posted about this in March [1], it was only possible for others to call me. Now everybody can register unique phone numbers and receive calls from anybody else. WebCall basically mimics a small telco now. You can use my WebCall server, or run your own. If you do this, please let others use your server as well. Traffic and load are really low. It is possible to host up to 30K concurrent users on a 1GB server. But you can also limit the number of users and run WebCall "on the side", like an e-mail server.

I will be here again at 21:00 Berlin (3pm NY) to answer any questions. In the meantime, why not register a (burner) phone number and post it so others can call you? You can always fetch a new phone number when you need one.

> It kind of ruined it for me to have suggestions like this that were totally impractical with 1920s technology.

This text is not about what could or couldn't be done 100 years ago. It is about today.

Two runners overtake the field at incredible speed, only to cross the finish line at exactly the same time. Would also raise eyebrows.

Why are gravitational waves limited by the same speed limit? There is no mass traveling in that case, I suppose.

Just came by to say that I still use Unity.
