What people do alone is very interesting and this site does a really good job at capturing that. HN is a place of very constructive and brutal criticism, so you will probably be disciplined on what it should do or what's wrong with it. But in my eyes this is a really interesting piece of art and social media that people like me really appreciate. Keep up the excellent work!

HN has always supported and cared about loneliness for all the time I've being here. I expect nothing but encouragement and helpful advice in this thread.

But at the same time we're engineers with pessimistic minds focussed on failure and monetization so I sadly expect different.

I didn't have a chance to use this on my phone, but from the landing page, this looks no different than Whisper. Knowing that, I probably won't look into this app any further. Is it worth looking into? Did the landing page miss some key features?

Thank you! That's what Solo is all about.

This looks great, could you please integrate youtube and soundcloud search for streaming?

EDIT: https://github.com/embedly/player.js may save you some time!

Holy, cow! I was working on a node-webkit/cordova angularJS app very similar to this until I got bored of angular. It pulls music from Soundcloud and YouTube.

Here's a screenshot if anyone's interested http://i.imgur.com/uSBNSeE.png

I'm working on an insanely similar project, also in angular, except mine's exclusively backed by youtube. Interesting how many similar projects pop up like this.

I did some googling a while back and saw some very similar. Same stack even. I've on multiple occasions seen ideas I've had created in the same exact stack I'm using. I probably have even seen your project, I'm thinking of open-sourcing mine since it's not being used at the moment but it's a tad-bit incomplete.

$8.50/hr

Why are you accepting such paltry wages? There must be something exceptional about your situation.

I wanted to say he could be from any country, but actually this shouldn't be a reason to pay less.

It could be, depending on where the clients are. Maybe that's good money where he is, and the clients are local?

$8.50/hr may be a lot for where OP lives based on their experience. I would think that OP is not living in the US. Hopefully OP can provide some insight here.

$8.50/hr is a nice amount of money in Hungary for example. If you don't have a finance/compsci degree is way above the average. In compsci, its an average payment for a developer with 2-3 years of experience (no need to pay further tax anyways from this).

Architects, lead devs, PMs earns around 15/hour at best paying companies. If you're a contractor, it could top up around 20 after taxation.

A young person with an average degree (economics for eg.) in an average position is not earning more than 5/hour here...

I'm pretty sure you can't, except in the trivial case of a table with absolute-sized everything, or alternatively by reimplementing the table algorithms in JS.

Problem with absolute positioning is that you remove elements from the natural flow of the page, meaning that adjacent elements aren't aware of the dynamic height of a fixed footer for example.

Thanks for putting your time to this fantastic list.

That is not the dropbox logo, it's just an icon of an open box, surrounded by an arrow seemingly to rotate. Perhaps it's a company that manufactured the box out of recycled material.
