I've been using wallabag for a while, switched to Pocket for this exact reason. Maybe switching back is the answer to this? Looked around a bit, someone seems to have thought about this already.


I don't understand, does this replace the need for the iOS/Mac application?


Yep, the RaspPi client is instead of the iOS/Mac app. Basically the Turn Touch API and Bluetooth spec is open source (https://shop.turntouch.com/pages/open-source) so you can extend it in ways that I haven't built natively.


How would companies submit bids though? Should they have their own natural language/keyword analyzer to identify which product the customer is actually looking for and submit their price for it?


We've been doing this for a while for a website that receives not too much traffic:

- we use a single server and the domain name determines which white label we are on.

- we use LESS and everything is variable. We load a single compiled CSS based on the domain.

- we never hard code anything, unless we know it's a single page for a single domain (everything is internationalized).

- the database contains everything and we filter out stuff a particular white label doesn't want.

This is because the website displays content (it's not a service like shopify) and most white labels want most of our editorial content, so syncing DBs is not an option (is it?). We have 40+ white labels and unless the customization is heavy we can create a new one in a matter of minutes.


I guess this wouldn't replace proper server side validation anyway, but it would be a nice addition.


None of HTML's new form attributes replace server side validation (which is annoying since you end up repeating code and having slight differences), however it's a good start.

With CORS and CSRF tokens, it would cut down on accidental issues – which for most sites is a bigger deal than malicious activity.


In that sense, it'd be a perfect analogue to the "maxlength" attribute on text inputs. (In fact, I wonder if it'd be sufficient to just make that attribute apply to file inputs as well...)


Yeah, exactly. It just prevents people from uploading ridiculously large files which have no hope of completing.


Well you can check file sizes in JavaScript before upload so you can do this already.


Yep, browsers could serve up a warning instantly.


did they remove rss though?


Rss started working again for me a couple days ago. Guess I never bothered taking it off.


path please? i cannae find it.


Is there a way to download them all?


Trash has restore: the menu item is "Put Back". I'm on Snow Leopard.


A job (especially if well paid) is what I'm looking for right now, to actually pay the bills.

My plan would be: accept what they have if good enough, keep my startup, ask for equity in a while.


Not properly direct competition. They want to build something else (a social game) but in the same field.

This reminds me of luckychic.com guy that PG talked to at TehcCrunch office hours. http://techcrunch.com/2011/05/25/absolute-must-watch-office-...
