Uh....glad I saw this tucked away that the bottom, seems pretty sketchy.

EDIT: the blurb mentions that this is opt-in...does that mean as a collector I can opt-in to this being sent or that the applicant's resume will only be sent if they opt-in (but the ask is always sent)?

How many passwords do you have?

How do you remember your passwords?

Do you share passwords across sites?

How many websites do you log in to with a password?

How often do you use social login buttons?

Are you worried about the security of passwords?

Have you ever had your password exposed and an account hacked?

So many questions!

"Most of us are well aware of the convenience that instant electronic access provides. Less has been said about the costs. Research that my colleagues and I have just completed, to be published in a forthcoming issue of Psychological Science, suggests that one measurable toll may be on our biological capacity to connect with other people."

After that intro, and the title, I expected the study to focus around the ability of people to connect with others in relation to their use of their phone.

That is not what the study seems to be about. Instead, the author describes how people who were taught an 'ancient mind-training practice known as metta, or “lovingkindness,” that teaches participants to develop more warmth and tenderness toward themselves and others.' There's no mention of phones or electronic devices in relation to the actual study.

I understand that there is concern about the effect of our handheld devices on our ability to interact in real life with other people, but this whole article feels a little...off. If you're going to frame an article around phone v. love, I'd prefer to see some actual research on phone v. love.

Did I completely misinterpret this?

Just a thought.

The way I read it, the OP was not saying that his AdSense payments would increase because he got higher bids for the ads due to higher quality content, but rather that as Google started to recognize that it was quality content, the PageRank of his site would go up, display it more prominently and generating more views and uniques.

I could be mistaken, but that interpretation seems to make a fair amount of logical sense.

I might experiment with some sort of freemium model; maybe for free you could get the first half of sections for every chapter and then you can pay ~$5 to get access to everything.

Or, as someone above mentioned, compile it into an ebook and have that advertised on the site for ~$10, but make the entire website free.

working on 25 hours for free on someone else's project is more likely to lead to future paid work than working for 25 hours on my own projects.

25 hours is almost certainly not enough to get an MVP done, so whoever he works for will likely need to 'pay their way' through the remainder of the project if they want to get it finished.

Are there other regulations besides taxes that you think have a negative effect here?

I reached out to Github to see if there was a better way to do this, but they said there wasn't, unfortunately.

For commits, however, we couldn't not analyze them, so we do a ton of processing. Basically, we loop over every one of your repos and loop over all of the pages of commits for that repo. For big repos (i.e. Facebook), that means we end up doing 100s of async API requests...it gets pretty intense.

I'm on 10.8 with the latest version of safari.

In other news, this looks pretty cool.
