Meaning you can stay for 90 days, fly off to HCMC for 5 days, and repeat indefinitely? That sounds like a pretty good deal...

Wow, I didn't know that was possible. Thanks so much for the information!

I'm Canadian, and it seems like we only get a 30 day tourist visa. I wonder if I can still make unlimited border runs? There seems to be very conflicting information on the web about whether the authorities care if you try to stay indefinitely through doing so...

How do you get a 6 month tourist visa to Thailand?

I thought you could only get a 30-day visa that's valid for a 6 month period, and spend a maximum of 90 days in Thailand within than 6 month period if you count re-entry. Going for visa runs very four weeks can't be that fun.

How can this be done when the average tourist visa lasts for anywhere between 15 to 90 days? If I can only make a pick out of the countries that offer a working holiday visa, that cuts out a majority of countries. Or is there any other way to get around this?

Up next, Kinect...

Are you looking for something like https://www.rootbuzz.com/ or http://www.osqa.net/?

Why not offer a very basic 'free starter deck' for potential users to try out before signing up? Then in order to save the progress made in the 'free starter deck', prompt the user to sign up?

The tour section tells me nothing about exactly how this app will help me learn Japanese. There is very little incentive for me to sign up if I don't know what exactly I'm signing up for.

Seems like a pretty good deal! Do the memberships automatically renew?

Sending drones into Chinese airspace, that is really going to fly!

Yeah, it is really too bad that there are such few jobs in the GTA that allow for more flexible working conditions. Guess things haven`t changed much since I left. I hope employers` attitudes will change once more and more startups mature, or do they not even allow a flexible schedule?

Thanks for the info, appreciate it!

Out of curiosity, how do the numbers in Toronto compare to PEI? Do the jobs you've seen offer some mix of in-office/remote schedule?

That is awesome! Definitely saves users from doing a lot of extra work. I'll definitely try Quantopian out!

I meant do you assume you can buy or sell at the vwap price (+/- some slippage) or the closing price? Essentially using a vwap algo to enter or exit.

The more active (frequency and volume) your backtest is, the more inaccurate the results will be if you just use the closing price.

A question about the Quantopian library...

Does order(c.security, -c.order_size) account for transaction costs, borrowing costs and vwapping using a symbol specific profile based on volume and volatility? Probably not a big deal for SPY, but would make more of a difference for a larger portfolio.

Looks like this is aimed at development teams that have traders/Gov't Excel monkeys as their customer. This is really the less evil of the two options (other being VBA), and when dealing with those types of customers in organizations where developers typically are the least valued cost center... well, it's not a bad compromise.

If you have had traders ask you for 'some Excel program that has live streaming price updates along with live pricing model params from our internal database' or some crap like that, believe me, this would definitely be worth the cost over using/maintaining spaghetti code VBA.

So, uh, dropbox?

To be a bit more specific: please be more specific! How is this any different than dropbox? Are you building 'Adobe Lightroom for the cloud'?

I think this is a fantastic idea! I would definitely try it out if it were available in the areas I am planning to travel to.

Any plans to expand to Asia?

Thanks for confirming. I haven't touched flickr for a while either, until this new redesign fanfare :)

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't personal favourites made available to the public in two clicks instead of one in the 'old' design as well? And you could see all users that added a photo as a favourite when viewing the photo?

It just never occured to me that it was a feature that was not meant to be 'public'.

I hope they improved their phishing/scam detection as well.

If it only takes a few clicks to 'reply with money', and if the scammer only asks for a small amount, this method seems to have a much lower 'barrier' than wire transfers.

It's the next step for the ever evolving Internets. Didn't you get the memo???

And the exchanges are making a killing off of this volume. You can thank the SEC and FINRA for this.

Cool, thanks. To be honest I am more interest in that part than Uncover :)

Where do you talk about the 'I learned to code' part? I don't see any mention of it on your site or your blog...

FYI, The demo (http://www.getchute.com/developers/demos/presenting-media) is broken on Chrome.

Could you give some examples?

If there is the option for online interaction, why not?

Your market would be terribly small though ;)

This is one of the most useful posts I've seen on HN. Thanks!
