I'm using Braintree combo-ed with Recurly. Makes it simple to start accepting subscriptions. I'm a big fan of recurly and if I ever feel like coding my own, I can use Braintrees. I built my own subscription payments for Paypal before and

To my knowledge that's still around. I've heard that the prominent reason some funds tout themselves as woman-led is because some studies showed that women tended to get consistent although smaller returns then men-led funds. Had to do wi

We appreciate it! And we'd love more feedback if you have it. We're working on narrowing that customer profile some more and need all the help we can get.

The main difference is that with Artsicle you get the original, one of a kind piece where as with TurningArt you get a reproduction of a work. It's just a different approach. On TurningArt you may find some more familiar names where as wit

Glad you like it. Let me know if you have any questions about it. I'm one of the founders (CTO).

It's more of a team culture aspect. I would imagine that developers who have an interest in learning about art also happen to be design-minded or at least aesthetic aware.

Yes we're hiring interns. But if the intern process goes well then we have full time positions available.

They were scrammed. Immediately. What they're dealing with is called residual heat removal. Even though the reactor was turned off within seconds (same as three mile island), the fuel is extremely hot and takes about a week to cool it to

Yea, let's not listen to the people that know what they're talking about. Let's spread fear, uncertainty and doubt. That always improves the situation. Give me one example of when the government, the plant operator, the plant designer kno

I've been using Rubber for the past few weeks and I'm a huge fan of it. Completely configurable, helpful developers and discussion forum and the best part is you have all of your server administration scripts right inside with your app. T

Well that's at the root of the question. What is the government's role? What should it be? To keep citizens safe? To allow commerce?

My argument is that there is no purpose for the containment walls. They are theoretically yet another barrier to leak of radiation on top of the fuel rods and the piping itself but I would argue this as unnecessary. Chernobyl should have h

Coolant leak and steam explosion are in conflict with one a other. What you're referring to is Chernobyl, which had a graphite moderator which allowed for a dramatic increase in power and pressure with no release. Light water plants use wat

Noted and edited. However, not the point of my post. AGR's, PWR's, and all current reactors for that matter are grossly over designed. 43% of energy is incredible but the redundant systems of the plant have nothing to do with the efficien

"Energy to cheap to meter". It pains me. I'm so glad to see a good writer give some strength to how massive and impressive these reactors are. But it pains me as he describes system after thoroughly redundant system adding to the costs o

Not to mention that it's an AGR (Advanced Gas cooled Reactor) something that doesn't exist in the U.S. or most of the world. Very cool.

Finally. Some sense has been added to radiation attacks. Getting inside a building or making sure there is any sort of barrier between you and ionizing radiation is the best thing you can do.
