   It is entirely possible. Being a marketplace their software sends coins around for all sorts of reason, this is what was hacked. Someone's personal bit coins are not at risk.

   The "hack" would involve withdrawing money, changing the hash of the transaction and then complaining that the transaction didn't go through. This was done through the support channels on Mt. Gox etc but technically could hav

   Interesting move where Google can essentially veto a technology making it impractical to use it.

   I would guess that if they had another way to access your iCloud calendar from their servers they would. Apple unfortunately has everything linked to a single account without any sort of Oauth. This is more an issue with iCloud than it is w

   I just bought a watch using their bitcoin checkout. Since I was already logged in to Coinbase it a single screen to approve the payment. Then back to a page saying my order was complete. Couldn't be easier. This is a win for bitcoin bu

   This is a cool side effect of GPU mining, this is all commodity hardware. In a year or less miners will need to upgrade their GPUs and will be selling their old GPUs. Gamers can then buy them up for cheap. With ASIC Bitcoin miners the hardw

    For storing $40 or so (like cash in a wallet) iOS's keychain should be plenty secure. For larger amounts the Coinbase method seems pretty good. They don't have to trust the device.

    I've been thinking about this for a while. It seems almost impossibly easy and yet no one has really done it. Maybe it's because the consumer startup crowd and the data science crowd don't overlap enough. If http:/&#x2F

    There are a few tools that will do this for you, basically copying the hidden restore partition onto a USB stick. Bootable DVD though? Really?

    This kinda sucks BUT I would take it over any Intuit API any day. They have a simple REST API that works exactly like you would expect. I assume if I really need more than 1000 calls a day I could probably contact them and get it raised.

    This is not the proper solution. Instead of making your data accessible when the device is locked you should listen for UIApplicationProtectedDataWillBecomeUnavailable and UIApplicationProtectedDataDidBecomeAvailable. Once your keychain ite

    "swiping upward to remove an app from the switcher completely disables that application as if it were uninstalled from the device" I doubt this statement is true. Some technical resources would be nice.

    iOS will actually disable these features if the battery is getting low. It will also group them together so that the wireless chips are on as briefly as possible.

    Square on iOS has had a similar input since it first came out. Its a great way to enter credit card numbers on a mobile phone where you don't have a tab key etc. Making the whole thing look like a credit card doesn't seem necessar

    Well I think the argument is that the reliability is increased by using scrypt instead of SHA256 which makes it harder for someone to control more than 50% of mining and that the result is about even.

    Very cool. Charging for tethering when you are already charging for data is ridiculous. Of course many cell providers are now bundling tethering for free...
