That's quite interesting. Thank you for the link. I wonder why does the US have such a high reputation in entrepreneurship. Is it because we have a higher concentration of high tech start-ups (unverified), which generate more buzz in the me

I doubt the code is that much cleaner compare to using framework (jquery) ajax call. Maybe it's faster to do a "img get"? Or that you can't terminate it half way as suppose to an ajax? Better browser compatibility? I haven't test it yet. I

"We take advantage of a CSS information leak. Your browser colors visited links differently than non-visited links. All we do is loop through the most popular porn sites and check the link color." Pretty smart.

It's not. It's just another tactic to scare the general public away from the issue of net neutrality. "Oh no, my internet fee will raise? F___ net neutrallity. I don't even know what that is."

I can't agree with you more. How can we implement such an incentive alignment? It's quite hard. Yes, true health care should be preventive, but this also means money is paid before any health problem occurs. Yet the general public are react

As side from definition, I think of capitalism as an algorithm with no inherent moral obligation. It's neither good or evil. Thus it's critical to apply capitalism only where it fits. When a business's profit is proportional to the well bei

That to me sounds like a better model than Mint. Sure Yodlee doesn't have the media buzz or "explosive" growth (Mint's growth didn't really impress me either.), but the infrastructure is extremely useful and will be around for a long time.
