   Well, not technically. They are a large software company and have lots of demo servers and demo images to show their software. They have built a user management platform in front of all of their demo images, which is what I'm authenticating

   My guess is that there is some amount of quota that goes unused. You pay for 40 hours, you end up using 30. That probably helps a little, but still... how is this profitable? I'm with you.

   Maybe it was obvious, but no one else had said it yet. I said it because I believed it would provide value to our community.

   I think a more interesting perspective on this article would be "there's no such thing as a quick buck, or if there is, this is not a story of it." Sure, he made 2,500 guilders in 5 minutes, but the author says of his early QnX days: "After

    Interesting. Could you elaborate? Backblaze allows web access but only after I enter my key to "unlock" my files. Am I being hoodwinked?

    Good hustling! (Serious, not sarcastic.) Your comment was funny and provided value (now I know about your service). Well played.

    Great idea, much needed. My 2cents would be to put this statement: "Reader validated, curated WordPress news" somewhere on your home page. State immediately and explicitly why I should care about your website (provided I don't enter through

    As a type one diabetic, I wholeheartedly agree that bloodsugar management is more important than the next social thing. I think what raganwald is saying (IMO) is that the "problems" these "minds" are solving are not really problems at all.

    As a developer and Texas-licensed CPA, this makes me so giddy. Is there an API for logging time yet? I'm working on a web app in that space and would love REST integration instead of a csv middleman

    I understand that to be your opinion. I (and most Christians) however, have a different opinion: that there absolutely is a contradiction. I wouldn't call it a fact.

    See my comment to your other comment for a response re: the definition of ID. I understand that you believe me to be irrational. I do not believe that God guided our development at all. I believe God created all of creation ex nihilo, fro

    "Apparently not, if you claim to be aware of what ID is and make this defense against lazy apologism." No need to attack me personally. ID is: The theory that life, or the universe, cannot have arisen by chance and was designed and created

    Understood. See my comment below re: public schools. There are schools where creationism is taught, you know what they're called? Private schools! Send your kids there if you don't want them to hear about evolution, simple as that. tl;dr: I

    I totally get that you see it different, and I respect it. There are lots of things that people claiming to be Christians disagree about. I say "claiming" because it is impossible to say that a single group of people are believers, regard

    re: edit. I don't know if anyone "deserve[s] every ounce of the hate [....] that is coming [their] way." I disagree with people, people disagree with me. I'm not sure when we started handing out hate so freely.

    To be fair, I know nothing about the DI. I just read the article and thought that the first sentence was a little harsh. Given their use of half-baked greenscreening, I'm sure they earned it.

    Ah, I see your point and I think maybe there is a misunderstanding. To me, intelligent design is part of my religion. So when people call intelligent design a fraud, but invite me to carry on believing my religion, I see a sort of disconn

    No, I don't. (Unfortunately.) I think too many Christian parents leave it up to other people (Sunday school teachers, youth group leaders, private school teachers, etc etc) to teach their children about their (our) beliefs. Schools teach ev

    Your comment seems to have brought that site to its knees also: "There has been an error initializing CAP web tracking." So don't feel too bad OP.
