This is only one misleading graph, which, to be honest, I find misleading.

A short route doesn't necessarily mean good bandwidth

Never used it, have thought about spending an hour or two to play with it but ultimately: There is no good reason that I have encountered yet where I need to use it. Generally I think people try to use the tools they have at their disposal

Really interesting - this exploit could apply to any social app that tells you the distance between you and another user

Is it unfair to also ask why the poles of the earth don't appear on the sides of a map?

Nice! What stack are you using?

I have FiOS and use google tv (underrated, but great) and I have been having issues with Netflix recently.

I think the best way to test this would be to open a VPN connection, and connect to AWS or watch Netflix via VPN

I wouldn't read into this even if it wasn't an outsourced support person. But the proof is in the pudding, the speed tests speak for themselves, no?

IN the perfect world of competition, true. Unfortunately most people have very few ISP options.

Totally true, but let's be honest even if the chat representative understood English perfectly and denied up and down that Verizon was throttling, he probably doesn't have the expertise to know one way or the other what is actuall

Exactly - the beauty of bash is that it's accessible

Wow, this is crazy. So if your country is not on the list, can you still have ad supported income?

As a data scientist, I have to agree with his opinion. Usually you have a team where each person is "specialized" in a few of those categories. You can call a data scientist a statistician, but I don't think you can necessari

Paypal's value lies in it's network and it's trustworthiness. There is no way in a million years they would divulge a f *-up of this magnitude unless there's was cold hard proof. But I think there is pretty convincing p

The problem with geothermal power is access. It's the reason why Iceland is almost entirely powered by renewables, and why the rest of the world isn't. So if Iceland finds pockets of magma at 5km, it's only really a breakthro

Sometimes you're forced to use godaddy. I wanted a domain that had been registered with godaddy, so I needed to backorder it through them, and register it through them.

The lesson here is how can you reasonably bash their economy? For the record, I think the US economy is just fine, but I also think that things in scandinavia are A-O.K.

Meanwhile, Norway has 1MM per capita in assets. Their net debt as a percent of GDP is -165% while the US is +88%

Cool - pretty elegant solution to a common problem. Interestingly, the solution was "enabled" by recently available technology packages, like stripe (and flask).

Definitely! Let me know

Wow, investors aren't liking these numbers. The reason I recently purchased Apple stock is that I foresee a large number of users coming on board once Apple launches a larger screen size for their iPhone line up. That's the main r

Reflecting on 2013, I found that not making enough time for my side project was one of the biggest things holding me back. So I made my number one goal for 2014 to launch a side project, and I hope to achieve this by carving out time, valui

This is so cool! Has anyone seen anything similar for a python flask app boilerplate (with OAuth + how to use guide)?

Mailgun's api allows you to send and receive email using your own domain - I really like it, and it's free while your volumes are down.

I recently found the site I built at the age of 12. It was a animated gif-based "comic" detailing the life of a superhero named Mr. Gullible. i-frames and image maps, with my crude 12 year old humor haha. It's a great relic.

cool article - I do think the easy fix is port forwarding?

I get great streaming from netflix, and I find youtube frequently has trouble. Maybe my ISP (Verizon FIOS) is throttling youtube and not netflix, but that would be strange.

Wow - this is awesome - good for you! I'll have to look into tumblr hosting - what are the limitations? Do you ever find yourself locked into a blog-like schematic? But also, if you're so successful with a passive approach, it sou

Well done! As a data scientist, I can say that your curriculum is spot on. And I also think you're taking the right approach building/hacking/doing rather than going to an institution. This stuff is so new that I find myself
