Twitter Vulnerability: Mutating Fast and More on the Way

Err, are you sure this is correct? Can’t they just htmlspecialchar() all input (or output..) - Don’t see any way anyone would be able to sneak past that.. mutations or not.

Track Conversations with ConvoTrack

I don’t see any comments on the reddit article? Or am I looking in the wrong location?

ConvoTrack will only show the comments from digg & reddit, not the actual digg/reddit post itself.

Track Conversations with ConvoTrack

That’s weird, it may be a problem with the collection, I don’t know. I simply use the backtype API. What’s the article URL? (and associated digg post)

Track Conversations with ConvoTrack

When you run it on a homepage URL it will only return tweets. Articles/blog posts should return the digg and reddit comments as well, but if they aren’t, perhaps it would be best if you let the @backtype guys know, since they handle the collection of comments.

Backtype obeys robots.txt rules. That said, the value a system like this adds outweighs the cons for me.

Ask HN: how do you prevent computer related eye fatigue?

I’d like to know. I’ve been having eye problems for months now. Doctors (I went to 2) just give me eye drops.My symptoms are a little different though, when I press on my eyes (the upper part) it actually hurts (nowhere else) and when I don’t put in drops I’ll get a grainy feeling in my eyes, like there is sand in my eyes or something..

Ask YC: Wattvision vs. Black & Decker EM100B

Hmm, I don’t know. That black & decker device looks like it just uses photo detection or what not to read the reading from your electricity meter.Other devices currently out use a clamp instead, this doesn’t measure voltage and is therefore inaccurate.

Ask HN - Where to host a blog for your startup? With Wordpress or on our server?

Can you install plugins/custom themes on blogs hosted on wordpress.com?If not, that’s a big downside.
