> 2. Asking for an "Email Address" would be better than asking for a "Username". You kill two birds with one stone. Most people can remember their email address(es) but I know I don't remember the different usernames I use. Allow users to add multiple email addresses and sign in with any of these.

As a counterpoint, I regularly use different Sneakemail addresses on different sites to be able to categorize my mail by origin and provide for limited sending capabilities. These are random-like (in order, among other things, to not be trivial to link to each other) and perfectly machine-readable, but they're difficult to use as usernames. So the trend of “email address as the only acceptable identifier for login” makes things more awkward for me. (This obviously doesn't apply if you allow associating a short name as well.)

1. Set up a real corporation outside of California.

2. Get a real business license and everything a real business does.

3. Report all income scrupulously to the IRS.

4. The Franchise Tax Board will take the position that your non-California corporation is doing business in California. You will be required to jump through all of the Secretary of State and State tax hoops. If you don't you have a very expensive learning experience waiting for you.

Note that last item. You now have a Nevada (for instance) corporation fully engaged in business in California. You ran around in a circle for nothing.

And of course you have a Nevada corporation fully engaged in business as far as the Franchise Tax Board is concerned. Which means as far as the State of California is concerned they have the Holy Grail -- an Amazon affiliate doing business in California.

Amazon may not be amused.

Keep it simple. If your Amazon affiliate business is so profitable, go rent a cheap house in Las Vegas and live there. You'll be bulletproof. If your Amazon affiliate business is marginally profitable you're going to spend all of your money on lawyers and accountants.
You type a key in some proprietary software. Anything beyond that is only based on trusting the software.

Isn't it ironic that anonymous hacks a police website and exposes police officers' personal information, all the while basing this on an ideology that information should be unhindered and free. But throughout all of this anonymous remains just that, those in anonymous get to hide their own information, their own details, while exposing those of others. Are anon's some how more entitled to privacy than the civil servants that protect us possibly with their lives. Anonymous has strayed from their righteous path, operation freedom and their crusade against scientology were admirable, or at least slightly virtuous, but now they are becoming petty. Standing for freedom is one thing, but what of these individuals freedom to privacy, is that meaningless?

> IE is still the default browser of the world's most popular operating system

While true if you look at current hardware numbers, I think your statement is misleading and incorrect. More people today purchased a computer running a Google OS than a Microsoft OS. I know that Windows is "the world's most popular operating system" by total installation numbers, but it is not the most purchased today.

I'm not sure what is, but I'd bet Android is "the world's most popular operating system" if you measure it by today's sales.
good advice - we'll investigate each of these critiques!

I'm suspicious of certain possible scenarios here. Someone without the history state API (e.g., an Internet Explorer 8 user) who wants to send out links winds up publishing fragment-based links (with all the scattered interoperability breakage thereof), but others get and publish full(-flavor) links. Then someone finds that with more restrictive JavaScript settings, some of the links work and some of them don't, or bookmarks two references to the same thing, or…

It seems like it would have potential for confusion, but it strongly depends on the application and its context. It's possible for the author to partially work around this by providing what amounts to an extra URI indicator (similar to “permalink” markers in blogs and other time-dependent views of content stores), but this is awkward. (Is there an add-on library for that, for that matter?)

A world in which Internet Explorer is indistinguishable from Google Chrome doesn't seem like a bad world, even if it means that Microsoft gets to keep 50, 40, 30 or however many percent of the market.

Google is strong, Apple is strong, Mozilla is (sorta) strong. I don't think we have to fear a world in which Internet Explorer is a great browser, not as much as in the nineties, anyway.

A world in which Internet Explorer kinda makes progress but not as fast as other browsers (which is in my opinion the world we are living in) is quite different, I think. Internet Explorer can't win in such a world but it can slow down progress (compared to it not existing at all or compared to an Internet Explorer that is on par with, say, Webkit). I still think that such a world is preferable to being stuck on IE6 forever.

And I'm hearing good things about IE10, so maybe we get to live in a world in which Internet Explorer is indistinguishable from Chrome.

I love Google marketing, it's like a Soviet propaganda assault. "The masses are clamoring for Google's new product. The next generation has spoken."
Interesting to see that the parsing does not work on a stream anymore, but on a whole 'file'.

This gives up the real world optimisation of starting work on a partially downloaded file on slow network connections.

Even fast internet connections take a while to download 1MB of javascript. Not to mention the majority of internet users on slower connections.

I think this work could be improved to go back to the old behaviour.

Field names on your signup form aren't visible in Internet Explorer.

To go off topic some more, but the drinking age isn't as arbitrary as, say, the 'adult age' of 18. I'm pretty sure there's some research that your brain hasn't finished developing until around 21, and possible studies on top of that which suggest early drinking may hurt your brain.
Auto Transport Companies
It will be really interesting to see what Google's next move will be. Since the competitors had to stretch themselves for this one, will this continue as a game of attrition (through various legal and acquisition costs)?

And I suspect that this was a really bad move in this context on the side of Google's competitors. Oh and I am well aware that these companies got loads of cash on hand. But it can't last forever.
Back in my day, copying a competitor's feature was denounced as ripping off. Just because it's institutionalized as a "hack" is no reason for assigning it much more importance.

Google generates a lot of good will in the developer community: lots of open source projects, Google Summer of Code, free hardware at developer conferences, Google tech talks, hacker "jokes"...

I don't know if this is a deliberate strategy, or if it simply stems from the company's culture and values, but it sure helps them. I personally love them. Winning the hackers and early adopters is a key to winning a market. I'd bet the majority of Google+ early adopters belong to the tech crowd. Similarly, many Android early adopters (from the tech crowd) convinced their friends and family to switch.

It's also good for recruiting :)
I don't understand why they're applying US-centric age restrictions world-wide. There are other countries out there.

Seriously, does he think that a hack for creating Facebook Lists is even comparable to Circles?

Of course this is some kind of improvement already for Facebook's standards.

Zuckerberg: “Guess What? Nobody Wants To Make Lists.”
http://techcrunch.com/2010/08/26/facebook-friend-lists/

Of course, they're a HUGE pain. I mean really, I use them.

I thought the whole meaning of "hacking" was to let more people do more things easier.
Instead, we need the world to be a more "open place" (in a huge walled garden), that sounds like someone sticking too much with his PR.

Facebook has already started looking messy (every time a new service comes out it has to be built in the "Social" Network apparently) and will continue to do so now that Google has started giving a serious approach.

I'd be glad to see Facebook "pivot" over Circles so I might KEEP using it instead of a address book.
Ask HN: One week post-launch, what stats did you see?
Hi,

I launched a web app a week ago, and I have been following the stats closely since then. I am not sure what to expect in terms of visitors etc., so I am turning to the wisdom and experience of HN in order to get some frame of reference. Obviously this is highly contextual, but still, I believe this is an interesting question.

What I did to promote:

* I spend $10 a day on highly targeted FB ads

* I reached out the other sites in the same niche in order to receive feedback, and eventually inbound links

The stats:

* 150-200 visits/day

* 2:47 avg time on site

* 47% bounce rate
sources ? i highly doubt that.

According to the stats gathered by HTTP Archive, the average response size (i.e. after compression) of a JavaScript file is 15kB: http://httparchive.org/interesting.php#responsesizes

This will make JavaScript parsing faster for the vast majority of sites, and for the majority of users.

If you have a single JavaScript file that is 1MB after gzipping, you really should think about modularising your code and lazy-loading the bits that aren't immediately required. See http://ajaxpatterns.org/On-Demand_Javascript

That's evidence that Google's technical people aren't insane. You don't just throw open the doors to a project of this size. The technical implications of going from zero to millions of users on a new service are huge.

Then the 'adult age' should be 21 too, because at 18 you're not a grownup yet. And it seems that European children grow faster because they can drink at 18 or less (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drinking_age). Or maybe brain research only exists in the US.
> Then 6-8 months later we'll see RIM starting to ship consumer Android devices with a Blackberry security/messaging ui layer alongside their other products. It will stabilize their fortunes and they could go on to be the leading Android vendor with their strong brand and messaging focus.

I have a feeling that even if they go down that route, they won't be the leading Android vendor.

If RIM is unable to innovate for a few more quarters, then their brand will be worth less. The longer they hold out, the less their brand is worth. If they switch to Android after their brand has taken hits, they will not do so well. Samsung and HTC are firmly entrenched in the Android market, and I doubt a weakened RIM would be able to overtake them.

Gaming Google PageRank: Why I no Longer Trust Google PageRank
I interned at a 1.0 bubble company the summer prior to my freshman year of high school. I built a website for the church I attended for no particular reason, the CEO happened to be a member, and he thought it would be fun for me to come work for him. I couldn't agree more, because the alternative was carrying around heavy golf bags for another summer.

I had a really great summer working long hours writing ASP all day, befriending the college interns that also worked there (whom I still keep in touch with), and generally feeling all grown up and respected even at age 14. The only real disappointment was when I found out my boss made $70k/yr for doing more or less the same thing I did, but I was making minimum wage. That may have been the same moment I realized I needed to be my own boss.
