It's as easy as throwing a red banner on your website that explains the situation briefly and recommends that users change their passwords, if you take this more seriously you can force a password reset for all users. Depends on how sensitive the information that your users trust your site to hold is.
There's so much potential information there, and some very neat things you can do with it. But for me at least, their new API policies completely turned me off of making cool things with it. Not that the API isn't still powerful.
I don't entirely understand why he donated shares of Facebook instead of dollars, can they sell the shares all at once and use the money or is there a catch to that? Did it cost him less money to donate shares in the long run? It's probably my lack of understanding of stocks and economics but it seems like it would be easier for everyone to just donate money.
I guess the most civil way this could end is The Oatmeal just decides to sell the cards under a different name but is allowed to keep the webcomic/online stuff under 'The Oatmeal'.
Now this is cool. I wasn't particularly impressed with the article that went around about using Netflix with Firefox in WINE but now that someone took that and applied it like this is something I can get behind.
Not for me, but it seems like it would do well on one of those take-my-money sites like ThinkGeek. I'd market it to one of those big ones, they're always investing in products and have the means to make it.
Writing, compiling, and executing Java and Haskell code can't be done (easily, at least) on the Transformer Prime, so he's just exploiting the batter life (along with it's inexpensiveness, and effortless syncing) of the Transformer and using it as a mobile access point to his pi where he can code.
Looking at this and thinking about how many companies created each year that are worth even a million dollars that aren't close to being on this, that must be an optimistic number.
With a more intricate list this could provide some neat data. Most successful time of year to start your company, synchronous business tactics used by those companies, I'm sure there's more.
>"A specific exemption to the digital lock rule is also given for those who have a ‘perceptual disability’ and need to make the file readable. If you have reading glasses prescribed by a doctor, as I do, and your preferred reader has font options which help you read, this exemption could arguably apply."
That seems like a pretty big loop hole.
Looks like this only passed because of the stated American lobbyists. I'll be watching closely the first time this is enforced, if it is at all.
Theoretically nothing, but who wants to break up their product like that? The number of different versions would scare away users and they probably wouldn't reach 100k in the first place. How would they identify versions that have reached a token limit?
This is very interesting. Though I think everything is defunct because of the presentation of the whole thing. If he made the slightest change, i.e was holding a microphone, people would not only stop what they were doing and allow themselves to be recorded, but they'd let him ask them questions. I think there's enough evidence of this in other YouTube videos where one person calls a random person, puts on their best over zealous voice, tells them they're from a radio station and asks them embarrassing questions that the call-ey couldn't be happier to answer. As outlined in many books it's just a very basic principle of social engineering. People want to give their information out, it's just a matter of asking for it politely. If he had gone into one of those classes and asked to sit in and record it for 2 minutes, even without a purpose, I'm sure they would have been much more open to the idea. A surveillance camera is on the opposite side but the same in many ways, it's not asking anything from you and it's far enough away that people don't feel threatened by it. There is fault in both the creepy camera mans and the people he's recording's logic. The cameraman thinks that they have a problem being filmed at all, and the people think that they're less safe because they can see that they're being filmed. You can bring to their attention the fact that they're being filmed every day all you want but that doesn't change anything because it's so out of site and out of mind that they don't (and won't) see it as a threat.
Hah, I hope RIM can get there stuff together and pull through, I'm not really a fan of any of there products but they're one of the last bastions of the Canadian tech sector and I definitely want that to grow so that I don't have to move to the states. It wouldn't be horrible but I like it here.
It keeps telling me an apostrophe is the number 39.
No, but seriously it looks neat. What are the websites it queries for results? I've seen Yahoo! and Wikipedia so far.
I wish they'd make a serious attempt to do this in python, it'd be do fun to hack up all my programs without having to know C, C++, and every other programming language under the sun. Then again maybe I'm just lazy
If something is located within an hour of me I could just drive and get it, or use a local delivery service. I use the internet to buy extra weird stuff that I can't get locally.
You're hosting your blog on Tumblr and the Facebook ad had your address on it, you can't really have input on the allocation of ad clicks if you don't have the server logs to show it.
