Thanks. I totally forgot about Foursquare :o

I'm from the Netherlands so my rountine is; Wake up, check mail and HN/reddit/businessinsider/TC/Mashable, shower, make sandwiches for lunch, get on the tram. Upon arriving boot up pc, respond to work mails, grab coffee and the day starts.

With that $41m they got, not a whole has been achieved thus far. What is the problem they are trying to solve with this?

I mean, cool a broadcasting tool that i.e. Qik.com or Justin.tv already provides. It drains you battery, it drains you data plan. Unless you use WiFi, but other than that it is not really a app that will get you far.

When I go on vacation I use it for the peace and not to show my pleasurable moments with my friends. When I go to a concert, I go there for myself and not my friends. Plus the quality that gets pushed out is so bad, especially sound, it is better for them to wait for a Youtube upload than see and hear it from my crappy lit phone with bad microphone.

Just like others say, quit using the word pivot. And the website could use a video explaining, because reading it her e in a comment, MAKES ZERO SENSE!

Like I didn't know that. Sometimes internet, sometimes...

There is a difference between a real celebration and whoring up your myspace page.

2 generations on my mothers side.

My mom is a burnout. She is no longer capable of working at all. She can fulfill tiny things at home for a short period.

We canceled many vacations because of her burnout. So treat it serious, because it can cost you your career and will control your life!

We potentially can run out of space, the same way we run out of Oil etc.

But we can go into deeps. The ground is an awesome solution for storing data and building data centers. Its great for cooling, but bad when the earth does bad stuff.

Thanks! I totally forgot about SO.

Sorry if this caused any problems. :)

All I read was, we are still alive and after your money for providing a better alternative.

I am surprised that RealNetworks is still here. That software was so bad!

A checklist is supposed to be like that.

Remember you are not making the checklist only for you. If you work for a company they need to have prove that the checks have been done correctly. This is a form of auditing.

Also, if you reduce the text on that list then you have a checklist. So basically you generate 2 separate documents. One is the checklist, other one explains it.

OWASP is an awesome project. If you really want to be secure use that as a guideline! Thanks for reminding me of that. I couldn't figure the name. All I could think of was WebScarab...

Good question. I did a quick Google search and here is a solution. http://sqlmap.sourceforge.net/

You could also let a program like Nessus run on your website. But that goes globally and will detect it.

Good list, but what about security?

SQLInjections etc? You need to have that covered more than the rest in my opinion.

Okay fair enough then. Thanks for clarifying :-)

I had a quick interaction with Lon on TC about the situation.

To me is sounds like "Sam" is doing this for personal gain. It feels like promoting, marketing. Because in all the posts about this, referrals are thrown to his business and his brothers. Which to me is wrong in the first place, as it was about the card not their damn business.

Secondly, it was theft wasn't it? The card wasn't his, it was a good that was lend to him. In this case not only him but severals others as well. It was lend in a leap of faith, no matter it was an experiment or it wasn't. It wasn't lend to be stolen from. If everyone steals something they lend, the world would be an even shittier place. Because if that was the case, I am going to try and borrow a car.

So it was illegal in the first place. Second place he used script to monitor the card and its movements. Which is illegal unless he had a wiretap approved. Third, he was not the owner so he committed theft. Fourth, if it was for charity - USE YOUR OWN GODDAMN POCKETS! You sold a business in the past to Facebook, you have more then enough to go buy.

Or am I seeing this all wrong? Could be, as I am far too young to maybe see the greater good.

Not to be a total dick, but I hope that those phone numbers are disconnected because the smart ass who made the article failed on blurring out the numbers correctly...

Someone said business continuity? It can be costly, but could save your business. Stop saving that VC money and start saving your business.

More importantly: Entrepreneur receives data from people voting.

You are signing up with Facebook Connect in order to vote. Which means he will receive more data to add to his companies database. I think this kid is to smart of HBS! He is outplaying everyone who is voting and not realizing that they are providing him datasets.

This might be an odd location... But is there anyone hiring an Information Security Manager (or junior position)?

A lot of the businesses on here only focus on developing and pushing. I have yet to find one that provides that. If there is a business with H1B, please let me know! I am currently looking for one.

Down vote if you don't think this is the right location. Could always open a new one.

Damage control. That should have been in place for things like this. And it looks like there isn't.

I wonder how their risk analyses looked like.

I think more importantly, could this have been prevented? They should have done the proper research on the risks involved.

They should also have provided users with a quick (even webpage) on risks involved and precautions people can take and make. And provide the users more background info on the renter. It's not as simple as running a hotel.

To me this looks and feels like a story of simple thinking and bad iterating. I doubt this is the only case out there. There should have been a lot of minor issues as well. And we all know it starts small before it becomes a tornado and tears your house and community down.

Why did I get a -1 vote for this? It truly happened. It told me to install WP when I clicked the link.

You broke the website?

I wanted to red it, but lets install WordPress :o

Old news is old. This was posted by Bruce Schneier not to long ago.

None the less, it doesn't surprise me a single that it got this far.

And this is why the business created BS25999

I hope to be working outside the house soon. That will change a lot since I am not distracted by stuff that goes on here. (Live across tram track, hospital and behind all that there is a firehouse)

Yes and I heard of Xbox Live, PSN. Also .com sells games, we dont. We are social platform. Same goes for Steam. It is also controlled by admin panels.

But isn't this what people said about Facebook, serious ever heard of MySpace? Competition is where it is at. Without life would be boring.

How fast can technology go...

I am using Stickies to write down my to-do. I have them on my desktop at all time. This way I know what to do at what time.
