My understanding is that if your website and error-producing-JS file are different domains then you'll have an issue still. I think raven-js does some other stuff regarding letting you rethrow Exceptions, which would still work, but wi

The CORS thing is a big deal. Basically it means your JS error reporting is useless (window.onerror won't report any details) if your JavaScript is loaded from a CDN, unless your CDN has CORS enabled. If you're using AWS for your

Would really like to see some service that intelligently tries to pick an avatar based on Gravatar, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc. if you just give it an email address.

"stalk [verb] to follow, watch, and bother (someone) constantly in a way that is frightening, dangerous, etc." No, we weren't. And she knew about it, was amused by it herself. No bad intentions.

She knew what was going on, not just after the fact. I've just re-read the definitions for "stalking", "cyberstalking", and "harassment" and I can assure you none of what we did qualifies given the actual

The ad was honest and even described the bet. "stalk [verb]: to follow, watch, and bother (someone) constantly in a way that is frightening, dangerous, etc." -- merriam-webster This very much was not the case. If it makes you feel

Looking up online != "stalking", and there was no "point" - it was a simple fun bet between friends.

The second photo that we later realized we had was one a teammate had taken himself and didn't have anyone else in it. I think it was doable with just 1 photo, and I'm not ready to share with Justin how the 2nd photo helped. :)

This method likely would have worked by itself. The method that worked sooner wasn't just "another photo" found online of her friends as grecy mentioned. It was a photo we had taken ourselves, and it didn't have anyone e

So you're saying that http://close.io not only has good engineers but also is good at marketing? Maybe you should check it out if you're looking for sales software then :)
