No. Basically crimes are tried in the jurisdiction where they are (allegedly) committed. If a jurisdiction feels someone committed a crime in their turf and the person never was or no longer is in the jurisdiction they make a ruling without

We (ISP) switched from authorize.net to ippay because they had much better rates on recurring payments. They claim to be able to process with a telco/recurring flag that has much lower fees. All I know is our fees went down a lot: www.ippay

Are Israel's issues any worse than China? Would you refuse to do business with China?

Funeral bar. It first appeared for Robert Morris. There was a Ask HN earlier this evening asking for it to be brought out for Steve Jobs.

That speedtest is interesting considering popular conception of Japanese FTTH speeds. Under 10 Meg download for over $60 per month? Where's the 100Meg for $20 or whatever is usually mentioned in the "bash US broadband" articles?

So, they claim this has much lower latency than WiFi, on the order of 1ms and yet they need a round-trip /over the internet/ to their datacenter to generate a waveform. That AP-Datacenter communication inherently adds more latency than a Wi

I've seen things much worse than this with medical records and data. Up to a few months ago we had a ASP.NET shared hosting customer that was doing some kind of data relay web service for medical imaging. No encryption. Patient data in full

I'm nearly 2K miles from the Bay Area but I've heard of more than 3 ISPs that serve the area. What about Unwired, Cruzio, and Sonic?

RFC 3021 eliminates the subnet and broadcast addresses so /31 is usable. That doubles your available space if you are primarily addressing links between routers.

I wouldn't call it accurate. Generally there are two major providers in a area that have saturation marketing. Then you have CLECs and independent ISPs. They tend to focus on direct sales to business so the public isn't as aware of their ex

"Netflix has no way of knowing what level of service a customer has paid for" I think that partially explains the clump of RBOCs in the 1,800 - 2,000 band. I manage a network that has several hundred subscribers wholesaled off of AT&T's

The point about NAT blocking unforwarded servers, not necessarily true: http://samy.pl/pwnat/ The goal of some botnets is to set up servers for software distribution or to host phishing sites. You can't characterize botnets activity as

It is actually very common for hosts to automatically renew and charge if you don't explicitly cancel the domain. Customers get upset if their domain expires, someone snaps it up, and their widely publicized email addresses stop working. Ge

Precisely. Also concerned that the underlying banks could be jerks and change terms etc to make their model not work or cause problems. I'm not against trying it, just concerned about how well it will play out. I haven't been looking forwar

I'd like clarification on that as well. From reading their posts it sounds like they are doing a abstraction layer on top of existing banks so they can avoid the paperwork of becoming a actual bank. That makes me wonder how well their no fe

If their product is half as good as their stated plans I'll switch as soon as it is available. API + Check cashing via cell phone is pretty cool.

And it isn't like Wal-Mart based their business model on delivering cheap goods from China. Throughout the '90s their big marketing point was "Buy American." Looks like they have tried it both ways and have evidence for what the people want

Nope. Data centers are really easy to shut off. Emergency Power Off buttons are often required by code to shut down breakers and UPS. I've heard that this is to prevent loss of life if a tech grabs a livewire and/or let the fire department

Sounds like they are trying to spin off everything except for their Public Safety radio division. They have been, and still are, talking about spinning off the smartphone division.

"But you do know that blacks commit a lot more crime (~ 10x) everywhere, not just America?" That's a bit incendiary without a citation. Got one?

You don't need to follow someone to get that stuff. I have a pretty short twitter name and get @ed with garbage messages by random people.

This doesn't seem very sinister. Sounds like NSA providing managed IDS to their clients just like private security firms that provide managed network security.

Nice. So they suspended a user instead of fixing their problem. Stay classy Twitter.

Seems like the most straight-forward fix would be for EventBrite to handle the payments through a traditional credit card processor. I'd think they would have sufficient volume to drive the transaction costs down.
