Is spam primarily an issue in search? I get maybe 1 - 2 @reply spam tweets a week. I occasionally search for stuff and see spam in there. However, I've never felt "OMG SPAM!" about twitter's experience.

Hmmm... it seems like the FBI decided to go after some low hanging fruit. People using Low Orbit Ion Cannon are probably not the brains of the operations. And arresting a bunch of people who have no influence probably gives validation to th

Jim Rogers is a pretty interesting guy. He's a well known author of "Investment Biker" and "Adventure Capitalist" about trips he took biking or driving around the world. He definitely has cultivated a unique world view for himself. I grew u

I can't think of slicehost without thinking of Pickled Onion. This guy's tutorials were the reason I used slicehost. I remember being really thrilled when they added him to the team. Does anyone know where he is now? As a customer and stake

My guess is capacitive buttons have a lower failure rate than physical buttons. It's probably a decision born of cost.

Is it possible to insure / sue for careless seizures by government agencies? Pinboard is (probably?) not the one they are after. What recourse do they have?

So it was... I confirmed my username is in there but at least passwords are hashed. Luckily, I never added an email address and used a different Username and pw than I do everywhere else. Gotta take precautions with bitcoin!

From the article, it seems as though experts are saying the design of the reactors by GE didn't take into account that Japan has earthquakes. GE was never named directly, but wikipedia says it was their design. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki

Im surprised that more people aren't talking about this. If I give you $130 and say "use this to grow the business" and you pocket $120 and put $10 in to the business, that's a pretty strong sign that you don't believe in the business. That

The patent was filed December 2, 2009 when the 3gs was the latest and greatest iPhone. I'd be surprised if you see this on an iPhone near you anytime soon. And if the powers that be try to use it to repress Apple users, there are tons of ot

I agree. I switched to Meslo too (based on Menlo). Menlo LG S DZ which has a dot in the middle of the 0. Looks like the dot comes from Mensch. https://github.com/andreberg/Meslo-Font/issues/1

I know the op and based on our conversations if he came across as being critical of or putting down YC, that probably was not his intention. While he was in techstars we talked about the differences and he had a very high opinion of the way
