Wow, good for you, I'm impressed. A quick Google search indicates that's a very competitive space (probably an understatement). What is your approach to marketing? As a landlord you're trying to reach, I'm curious how yo

That's the NSA's rationale too. Except often times a collection of data points that are supposedly "anonymous" can eventually be correlated to a specific person.

It's not a win-win, since Comcast itself is a competitor to Netflix. You only have one side paying the tax.

Interesting about Private FLITE. Why would a company like that extend services without upfront payment? Especially for $100K+...

Yep, agreed, speaking from experience. Most sites on Flippa have had their traffic artificially inflated for the past 6 months using shady SEO practices just so the seller can get a good price. Within a few months Google inevitably slams th

Search engine ranking changes is more like it. Mostly due to Google algorithm changes.

Why bother? The switch needs to be made eventually, so why kick the can down the road?

It's exactly how 2-factor authentication works for banking sites such as Bank of America and Chase.

On both sides. You should assume they have broader and deeper capabilities now.

Absolutely impressive. I'm an investor in an agricultural (non-software) startup and what people may not appreciate is the sales process required to make in-roads in this industry. Farmers can be very skeptical (rightly so) about anyth

Does anybody know what they're looking for? Border Patrol/TSA/Homeland Security agents aren't the sharpest tools in the shed and I can't imagine they're very computer literate. Are they just poking around the f

Isn't this very similar to what RapGenius just got penalized for? Only difference seems to be Expedia is not providing anything in exchange for the crappy linkbit like RG was offering to.

I don't have the citation on hand right now, but if I recall correctly their recommendations strengthened DES against mathematical attacks, but weakened it against brute-force attacks.

I do and it's an awful experience. The rate of adoption is 0% for the most part, there's no easy way to make it usable for non-technical people.

Probably because wind speeds are faster over the ocean due to less friction. Mountains, trees, structures, etc. all affect that over land.

I had the same experience. I've been using Bittorrent Sync for awhile now and absolutely love it. It's super fast and I've never had any inconsistencies in syncing. The closed-source nature of it is not ideal, but if that&#x2

Doesn't the design of Bitcoin ensure limited availability as well?

I could see someone maybe paying for something like that. I could see it being useful if each item in the list was a complete package, including well-thought-out detailed description, potential functionality, path to revenue, market breakdo

It's an OS you can run on a Raspberry Pi. There's little-to-no details in this blog or on their website as to how exactly this keeps data safe from the NSA.

You can already do that with normal EC2 and for a lot cheaper too because you could use a spot instance.

I don't think the objective is to save on licensing costs. I think it's to save on hardware and possibly deployment costs. Also, the primary use case seems to be using a thin client.

The use case is something like this: http://ludo.cubicphuse.nl/jquery-treetable/ It would be nice if something like that existed, but with much richer features like the libraries above.

I'd really love to see one that supports a hierarchy of JSON data, such as a treegrid.

Also, you don't have to compromise your data to a 3rd party like Dropbox.

I wish there was a Google Authenticator app for the desktop, so I could at least have a backup in case my phone gets lost/stolen.
