The modest 18% increase is likely due to the fact that demand for Google's shares increased since they held the dutch auction. Compare this to Netscape which jumped well over 200% on its first day.

Now you just have to worry about Gandi shutting down your domain if you host anything that anyone finds morally objectionable, among other ridiculous terms they require you to agree to.

Read through all their blog posts. I switched all my domains to them because of their refreshing views on privacy, security, etc.

Well, if you just need a couple of months to prove your business, I'll invest the $49/month on your behalf. What are you prepared to offer in return for my investment?

With anything you're trading money for time. If you don't want to pay their more than fair asking price, then use your time to roll your own solution. It probably won't be as good but, as you say, your business may not succee

The submitted (Google Plus) link was published May 17th. The more detailed (mathistopheles) link was published May 5th and was only updated very recently to link to the summarized Google Plus post. It seems clear to me that the Google Plus

Thanks... I somehow missed the check constraint ability, which addresses the malformed data issue.

If I'm reading this correctly, the unfortunate part about using nvarchar rather than a native JSON data type is that it's entirely possible to store malformed JSON into the database, thus putting the responsibility for validation

Amazon has discontinued Flexible Payment Services, Amazon Webstore Services, and others. Presumably your warning to not rely on proprietary implementations is vendor-agnostic?

The exact same point can be made by redacting or anonymizing the individual's name. Perhaps the organization rethinks its use of the comment and removes it. However, this blog post will live on through the archives of the internet in p

See: http://web.archive.org/web/20090804164014/http://i.gizmodo.c... Students were asked to judge the quality of a variety of compression methods randomly mixed with uncompressed 44.1 KHz audio.

Even if everybody moves to FLAC or other lossless music format, musicians will still likely add in MP3 compression artifact sounds. After all, like with vinyl, it makes the music sound warmer .

Why not actually start interviewing. It may be that your fears don't match up with reality, and you'll do awesome and each get a handful of great offers.

The $200M investment was at a $1B valuation, thus it was an origami unicorn. However, one could argue that until someone actually forks over $1B, all valuations (even those of publicly listed companies) are on paper only.

To play devil's advocate, this is little more than a recipe to be followed by rote. I didn't learn anything in that gist other than a clever way to find the version number. Why does it get installed into my home directory... is th

The test is whether or not the use of Pal is likely to cause confusion for the goods and services that the trademark was registered for. If this was a service to help you adopt a new puppy, there's little likelihood of confusion. Howev

Agreed. I installed the app, played a piece, but when I tried to play something else I got a video ad blasting out at twice the volume of the music. Deleted the app.

That a person mentions a single dimension does not mean that they don't appreciate additional dimensions. Perhaps you could seize the opportunity to train yourself not to read too much into a few sentences? :)

It's because the myriad formats are problematic that this would make for a good startup. And you could initially schlep it: as new formats come in, do just-in-time research to figure it all out.

Agreed. I'd love to see an AngularJS port of this. https://material.angularjs.org seems to lack some of the polish that this has.

It just seems a little odd asking people to share without any explanation of who you are or what the purpose of this is. For example, are you being compensated by some polling agency for collecting this data? What are you hoping to accompli
