They could have disabled access to it by the thief. The 60 day policy does not apply to cases where it is "being transferred back to the original Registrar in cases where both Registrars so agree ..." http://www.icann.

No, GoDaddy was never in doubt: "No one at either company questioned my statement (supported by written proof) that the website belonged to me. No one doubted that it had been transferred without my authority". So GoDaddy's r

Exactly, which is why I disagree with the 2nd reason mentioned. I don't see how anyone can perceive a lack of follow-on investment in any startup negatively, when it is widely known that each participating firm only plans to invest in

Wow. This stuck out so much: "My mother, who'd earned degrees in physics and electrical engineering in the 70's, cried when I told her that I was leaving and why but she never blamed me. She'd hoped that my generation’s

Wow, I take it all outstanding legal issues with the erstwhile ceo Danny Zappin and other cofounders were resolved then.

Still somewhat amazed at how discussion around a successful example of product-market fit degenerated into such bile, but glad to see clarification from you and Sarvjeet. Congrats on your hard work.

Don't see why your age would be a problem for immigration. For many western countries, academic/professional qualifications and financial capability (especially if applying for investor visa) matter more. I believe Canada also h

How much of Apple stock does NCPPR own anyway? Amusing to see that nowhere in its long whiny press release does it announce that it will divest itself of AAPL. Whatever happened to putting your money where your mouth is or voting with your

Agreed. Timing also plays a vital part. However, I generally find articles like these, which state the obvious with the benefit of hindsight do not really impart any new knowledge, thus are a waste of time.

Wow, interesting to learn that Indiegogo actually launched first. Kickstarter's bigger brand stamp made it seem otherwise.

Hard to really evaluate the info without the time factor. KickStarter is massively popular, but I wonder how much of total haul is attributable to activity before IndieGoGo came along (I believe KS started first). It would have also been i

@RogerL "Hollywood is filled with people trying to act like they are a great star. Almost none of them are, nor will they ever be one." You're skipping over important nuance: Assuming star = bundle of confident, recognized ta

Wow. Naivete is a bitch... Or one hell of a drug, depending on your viewing angle. And given his re-arrest on what appear to be spurious charges (1st set were thrown out on appeal), I can't help but agree with this comment on VF: &quo

Awesome. More companies should do this. Interestingly a practice some governments follow. Sweden, Norway and Finland make everyone's salary, tax details and net worth public. Norway also makes the records available online.

The sales person is the one making sure everyone else gets a paycheck. Why should they be treated equally? They are the stars of the show, not the developers, or management. If people get fed up, then let them. Code does not sell itself.

The fact that a woman who otherwise champion females in tech was behind the poster does not excuse it. Sexism, like many complex issues exists as a continuum, degrees of which can be perpetrated by anyone, including women.

That is NOT encouragement in any way. a)I appreciate competition as motivation and this ain't it; I prefer competing in such arenas as a person, not as a woman. b) And for other women whom may cite intimidation as one of the issues that

Agreed. I'm a woman and my first thought on sighting this was "Really? Are we seriously on this bullshit?" When I found out it was a woman behind it, I was even more disgusted. I notice she's backpedaled and the poster has been altered,

Is the OP sure those were CSIS peeps? Just wondering based on how they bumbled through their attempts at making contact. Thought intelligence agents would be slicker than that.
