The technology for this sort of recognition integrated with advertising is shoddy at best. At this year's InfoComm there was quite a number of systems demoing this type of technology - but it could basically only identify one person who was

Almost everyone in the financial industry has known about this for a while. It seems your average investor who unknowingly owns some of these companies considered 'stable' and 'recession proof' traditionally that are falling apart. Usually

I really recommend you take a real job at some point in your life for at least 6 months. Some of the best lessons in life come from contrast. Being able to remember what it was like at a regular job provides a lot of motivation for people

How does this compare to using 007 as my luggage combo locks and PIN code (0007)? :) Interesting app you created though.

I have found that if you do your homework and use well targeted ads you will make much more using non-PPC advertising. edit: I was avoiding introducing too many new acronyms, but I was suggesting CPA Let's say you use some sort of program

I bet you will come to cherish that extra 951.10. Congrats, and let me chime in that it is the best move you can make too. You only live once, it will be great regardless of how it turns out, all those things are true.

I was going to write something very similar. If your marketing strategy does not involve every high visibility low effort opportunity you can get your hands on, you have already failed. How much work does it take to get in the TC50? How mu

Unless you live in a condo with concrete floors and thin wooden floors which would make that quite difficult. How did you snake it through the floor? Or are you suggesting to make a small hole directly behind the lamp in the wall?

Yes, sales people love it because they hear from other salespeople 'Oh you have to get on Salesforce dot com'. I haven't developed anything using their API. I have used it a bit, and it is much better than it was ~5 years ago, but still is

I really disagree with things you state as facts. Firstly, the different between appearing ripped and appearing 'puffy' or bigger is far more about diet and cardio than anaerobic activity. The guys with abs at the gym are far less about pr

Criticism without an offer of a solution is pretty useless. I think software could be better. I think democracy could be better. I think humans could live better.

Great new functionality. It took me very little work to migrate an old project to the new version - and the majority of that was removing my use of deprecated features (and using their replacements). Thanks to everyone that contributed.

Do you have some evidence for that claim? Because in Canada here we allow downloading music as part of fair use like listening to the radio. The artist gains exposure from music downloads which could increase your sales. So what if this 's

Piracy is a strange beast, but it is definitely NOT theft. If I download a song - it does not directly negatively impact the artist. They aren't out anything. The indirect impact on the artist is another matter. They are potentially out o

I sometimes get very angry at people that have screwed me over. You don't need to get over it completely - learn from the lessons. But don't let it negatively impact your future decisions, the best revenge is living well.
