A bit on the evil side, but thanks for sharing. What about cross-promotion? I believe already-proven entrepreneurs have multiple channels (online and offline) to promote subsequent ventures. Also, controversy is popular, but is it viable in

Don't believe this, people. It's obviously planted evidence. We are not alone ...

Something crucial is not mentioned in the article: What is the traffic you receive? The facebook page lists 11K fans. I disagree with "don't check email". Users do a much better job at testing our apps than ourselves. I 've essentially sto

That would make a lot of sense. Both companies hold similar contact data (GMail contacts vs LinkedIn). There are many similar use cases between the two. Is this just speculation?

Notice that the pattern becomes problematic when you include facebook in the picture, because that's where people give away their real data. I don't think it's an issue with UDIDs - they are an essential component with minimal privacy impli

it works decently on webkit browsers (and palm os i think, and nokia). The thing is there should be at least drafts for camera or voice support in webkit, simply because there is a need for it (Or else there wouldn't be projects like phoneg

Well, geolocation didn't take long to incorporate, hopefully the rest will follow.

Why doesn't HTML5 include support for camera input, accelerometer, compass & voice commands? How long before these are integrated?

Spying? - maybe, for lame spies. It's manipulative, deceptive, hideous in its exploitation of group psychology, but the information it contains is trivial and only the lamest of spies or terrorists would use it. It's the world's greatest r

Indeed. I had to read a few articles to find out that he was shot in the head after resisting. I have no reason to dispute the fact that he resisted (he wasnt the only one who died), but there is an air of revenge here, and that's not how t

Hey sorry i missed your comment earlier, i thought nobody would ever answer. I started it as a side project, so i 'm still fixing things. - Will fill up the ToS soon, promise - OpenID et al (facebook, twitter etc) is a great idea, but i wil

regarding the comments, what are the types of comments that get lots of upvotes but are not constructive? is it the funny ones? also, what about having a multiparametric approact to voting like this: http://textchannels.com/?mode=page&

That would be a violation of the democratic principle behind social news and would incentivize people to game their scores. Members have different interests and expertise, so having a high avg score doesn't mean they are experts in everyth

not an expert either, and indeed, the Hinton papers on RBMs are the last thing i remember reading about. But their invention dates back to the 80s. I 'm just noticing that if you search "neural network" on google scholar for the recent year

Why are these "card-reader devices" considered revolutionary? They have a miniscule profit margin, and the ones who really benefit are VISA, AMEX and other card issuers. I don't see what's the disruption here, unless they plan to supersede

The title of the post is very misleading: Obj-C would crash and burn if there were native, supported alternatives in OSX, it survives exactly because there are no alternatives.

Let's face it: in 2011, Obj-C has the sex appeal of COBOL. I think it's primarily a strategic decision: Just like apple likes to lock-in its customers with itunes, so it does with developers, locking them behind an unpopular language with a
