Basically means that if you upload content for your connections or the public to see, we can show your friends / connections or the public (based on your settings) that content without paying you for it.

The critical mass problem is the most difficult social problem to solve. Just have to make something people want to use and if they want to use it, they'll share it. That's the idea anyway.

The website is available everywhere. The iOS is temporarily US only until Apple approves the region updates we just made. Android should be available world wide as well. I was able to still access it myself. Where are you accessing from, if

Social media hasn't changed in over a decade but the way we live our lives, especially digitally, has. We've grown up but our social media hasn't. Slyde isn't meant to be an idealogical anti-facebook. Slyde is meant to h

Absolutely. I took the question as to why a percentage is charged for card transactions at all. The additional 0.5% is most definitely a "because they can" type of pricing and that's more an economics theory discussion. The m

Much of the interchange rate is charged directly by Visa / Mastercard. The merchant bank will then add basis points to that, and often you get another mark-up by the individual ISO (independent sales organization) in a typical set up.

Don't really like the misleading projects Twilio releases as "open source". They are basically releasing demo code of how to use their commercial, paid for backend service and while that demo code is open-source, I don't

This actually isn't true. I build telecommunications software and although individual carriers may offer a binary true or false response to a DNC request, the actual DNC list is a csv of all the numbers in a given region / area co

I think what they are failing to address here, and what is incredibly misleading of them in this message, is that they fail to define what "public information" or "public activity" means to them. They define this in thei

I've used c9.io for years. You're trading some nice IDE features you'll get with VSCode or others for convenience, but not as many as you'd think. Although the interface is rather out-dated, it's a solid IDE and I t

So much uneducated hate going on in the comments section here. As someone who's developed high load projects in a few languages (C++, PHP, Node.js, ColdFusion, Rails) I can say with absolute certainty that any of the modern, popular la

How often do we list static data in lists anymore? Honest question. It feels like most websites you view anymore are displaying data fed from somewhere that isn't known when you write the markup. As you write markup some is meant to re

That's a good point, I think I should of said "Dynamic" for lack of a better word. Interactive, it needn't be.

This is continuing to shape up to be another one of those preference debates. I prefer the Angular approach, as its end goal is to simply make web markup what it should be: Interactive. The downside being that you're forced into Angula

This is jealousy, at the core of it. Not just the gaming industry uses these tactics. I work in an industry that does that all the time (I hate it). Certain kinds of games shouldn't be regulated, though I would agree that creating fake

Wanted to touch on this post. I think having that kind of bandwidth, given proper and reasonable connectivity outside the "last mile" is a big draw. I'm a co-founder of a telecommunications start-up (cloud call center stuff)

They probably will. I don't expect a refund, and anyone paying that early for a product that isn't done should do so with the understanding that there is a chance you may never see what you paid for. With that said, this e-mail ma

There seems to be quite a bit. But most credible articles (haven't tried Google Scholars yet) point to there being no clear "winner." The overall consensus is that we should just be DST year round or not have it. http:/

I'm not the originator. Was going to create one but did a search first and found this. I truly believe DST serves limited modern purpose. There are benefits, but they are out-weighed at this point by downfalls. Modern culture has a maj

I think I'm seeing some people here upset with the possibly deal because service already sucks (for both companies). If that's how you feel, then this deal is good. One large company can be taken down much easier than two large co
