For the uvar example you could get could get close (from news.arc): (mac uvar (u k) `((profs* ,u) ',k)) (def user-age (u) (hours-since (uvar u created))) Without a macro you'd have to call uvar like: (uvar u 'k). For this example I

Illegal usually applies to criminal law, not civil law. I do know that there are some criminal copyright violations. My point would be just that it's not proper to say that copyright violations are illegal because most copyright violations

It could monetize really well, actually. I'm sure that jtv has already thought of this, but they can be the hulu of live broadcasts. I've seem ad overlays as well on Justin.tv for what it's worth. (Also, copyright violation is not the same

justin.tv is great for sports broadcasts. I don't get cable but I want to watch the Lakers in the playoffs. So I watch it on justin.tv (I find the link to the game on atdh.net). It's very useful for me.

I'd drop you a line but your profile doesn't have contact info in it. My email is idoh@idoh.com if you want to ping me, I'd love to see what can be done to address this problem.

Sounds like a business opportunity. Every business needs a knowledge base, but they are too hard to get set up and for people to search. It's a problem I've been thinking about lately (currently #3 on my list of problems to solve).

Thanks for the explanation. Because of aggregators I hardly ever see the front page of blogs anymore.

While we are on pet peeves, how about the use of "blah blah blah after the jump" and then there is not, in fact, a jump. E.G. http://themovieblog.com/2009/05/ladies-and-gentlemen-the-red...

Isn't this the angle that Redhat, IBM, and now Oracle are taking? I.E. the software is free, but the support contract is gonna cost you.

If I were in any way inclined to use such as service I'd immediately stop once I saw the front page. It looks like a sketchy website. There's no way I'd entrust my personal information to a site looking like that.

Every couple years this story pops up. I love how some company took Jamcracker. >> Bahr stops for a moment, as if listening to herself. Then she bursts out laughing. "Listen," she says. "I take it back. You write whatever you want t

While we're on the topic of wordsmithing, "verbal" means using words. You probably mean "oral".

This is a sound plan if you want to go to college. I'd add to this that there are a lot of JCs that are feeder schools to some great universities, such as Berkeley. I know two people who did the JC -> Berkeley route. One is still in sch

I couldn't figure out the audio captcha. People who are blind probably have better hearing, so maybe it's easier for them.

Actually it was completely reasonable to have made those loans and I'd have done it too given that Fannie Mae was willing to guarantee it. If that's all that you did then you'd be fine (everyone else is of course another story but business

Sure, I can envision some scenarios where I'd sell. I haven't gotten even one offer yet, so I don't think anyone will ever make an offer that is in the ballpark of what I'd consider.

Upvoted because that's the situation with me and my 4 letter domain name. I was able to buy it for ~$250 in 1999. Anyone know how much they go for these days?

Supposedly there are special inks that help with that. But even so checks are hard to control, and the company I worked for switched to paypal for international payments.

Wasn't it that they paid $.10 per user, and then, if they converted, got $1-$3? Without knowing the conversion ratio you wouldn't be able to say what the margin was.

Here's how it was done: http://jeffreyfalstrom.com/ When someone close to you passes away, you are distraught and have a lot of things to take care of. Maybe you don't want to register a domain and do design and stuff (most people aren't

Advertisers want two things: people to buy stuff via some conversion funnel that starts with the ad, or "brand lift". The best way to get people to buy stuff is to find intenders - those people who are about to buy something in your categor
