But are the other markets as rabid as MtGox? I think that is why alot of people even put up with the higher fees. Also when MtGox comes back online in ~3 hours I believe we will be in for some more bot action manipulation, especially with t

Well, MtGox proved me wrong earlier today. :) Matter of fact, still down now. Also I still think it would be interesting to see their setup, wrong or not.

Considering how volatile bitcoins are, any downtime DDoS or not, affect users a great deal. Unlike NASDAQ that can rollback/shutdown the market, MtGox has to maintain 24/7/365. I dare say their market's uptime is more critical than the regu

I see alot of people saying how certain configs are missing/better/not tested. So what about a "crowdsourced benchmark" instead? Maybe a few elaborate scenarios are posted and people can simply submit their best setup/config/code to be benc

Being a big fan of discovering music I love the approach! Would love to check this out if it isn't hammered right now. :)

I know some cars can blink light codes (morse-like on dashboard) that you can reference online to self-diagnose the engine problem. I did it once with a weird combination of brake and pedal pushes. Kinda cool actually. Method name escapes m

Interesting. Does using Stripe Connect bypass this restriction since you are not actually handling any money? Or am I misunderstanding things? Questionable site name, but well done! :) Cheers

I too, looked at both BrainTree and Balanced and decided on Balanced. However I liked that BrainTree seemed to focus more on the international part of payments.

Interesting. What Watsi has is beyond what I imagined an ideal online donations would offer. Kudos for taking the leap Watsi!

FreedomPop user here and since the device and network are similar, I am going to say the coverage is actually pretty weak (will not comment on speed since I have not been able to use it much!) For users seeking mobile hotspots, FreedomPop

Thought it was a great idea along with Amazon Lockers. Just did not know they would be acquired that quick! Any hints as to the financial terms of the acquisition?

I got a brand new UX31A recently and the keyboard does not even work... As in, the "backspace", "d", and few other keys will not even register. Tried updating and rebooting too. I returned it for another unit so let's hope it is just a few

The whole launch seems very poorly thought out. Or am I missing the genius of it? * no official launch time. * no early email notifications went out. * no sense of stock availability. * high phone limit (5) per user. * constant site errors.

Shouldn't it just be a deteriorating reach % after your first/second post of the day? That would be a better middle-ground than making $ by suddenly handicapping user's FB page reach.

I got this site bookmarked from a long time ago so I do not know what is the PHP version tested. Adding it because it seems to contain quite alot of different tests. http://net-beta.net/ubench/

I am interested in the calendar + reminder domain of it. More so if it works offline (ie- Soundhound/Shazam app). Can you elaborate on the calendar domain?

Hah I had the same question too. A suggestion is for a short text field for comments, to differentiate tie-breakers for the seller maybe?
