Does this mean Stripe will phase out the ability for Canadians to accept USD and deposit funds directly to Canadian banks offering "US fund" accounts (that are not technically US bank accounts)? Currently, a Canadian business can

I use SoundCloud for exactly this. Discovery of independent music, as well as remixes. I have a huge SoundCloud playlist that I keep adding to. I also use Spotify. Another huge playlist. More music I like. I hate having to choose when I rea

Walmart tactics. Open in new town. Sell at a loss to get customers. Go on hiring spree. Local business can't survive the mass exodus of customers and employees. Once the only job in town is Walmart and the only store left is Walmart yo

More of a prediction at this point ... that $50 million in VC has been pushing them towards possible bloat. Not so much on the tech side, but on the advertising and monetization side. Perhaps the recent resignations have something to do wit

You seem to have a fairly predictable sales cycle happening there. Hope your next app is a "Winter App". Then you'll be able to sleep easy all year long :-)

Both sides are spinning the story, but it does seem like the EFF is fighting the good fight here: "The computer in question also had encrypted 2014 FCAT questions stored on it" Of course, this is not relevant as the files were not

Ahh I guess you don't live in an area with RAIN and WINTER where anything not bolted down to the roof generally gets blown right off. The costs are significant if there isn't a prebuilt common area (rooftop patio). Because of safe
