Yeah. It's a completely ridiculous idea. Almost as if the project manager had an idea and pushed it through without thinking about the repercussions. If it's really a problem why not use the speedometer to figure out if the train

It's such a shame. They had a really good way of working. Their open API and product roadmap on Github was awesome. They had future plans for cryptocurrency and foreign markets. Their API worked beautifully. The only reason they'v

I've been using Machine for the past month and it's pretty good. It handles SSL certs for docker over IP address, which is an absolute PITA to manage manually. I hated creating new certificates for each machine, whereas machine do

I think Google Wallet even supports it from the HTML5 requestAutocomplete() API for web stores. Not sure if it's a unique card per transaction, but it's good to know you have some protection. Check out the HTML demo here: https:&

Shameless plug, you can also get paid with bitcoins via https://www.incoin.io/ . We need more of this. I'd be happy to see another proper payroll company with the option to pay via bitcoin.

I can't wait to do it. Definitely in. It's awesome that you're taking the leap to make your spaces connected across countries. And a +1 for the idea of moving boxes around from country to country. As an aside I can't und

The Qualys security advisory says that it was fixed independently in 2013, so RHEL6 and 7 might already have the fix. http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2015/01/27/9

That's a great writeup. It will be really interesting to see how they achieve remote code execution under those limitations. Also surprising to note that we've been vulnerable since November 2000.

This is one of the reasons I co-founded https://www.incoin.io , so you can choose to get paid partly in bitcoin (or not, if you don't want to) without a 1% fee. Your identity is already verified for tax purposes. It's a

Could you move more than the FDIC insured amount from Goldman Sachs? Or Lloyds in the UK? Luckily, with Bitcoin, it's trade what you can lose. Keep the rest by yourself. Yes, there were some losses, but it's a trading platform. So

I spoke to a Lyft/Uber driver today in NCY. He said that Uber's losing drivers every day here — about 5% (I don't know where he got those numbers from). He also mentioned that Uber are flat out lying about how much drivers ea

The first thing chrome said is that tabs show in the task switcher. And that you can disable this in the settings. Then it placed a settings link right under the text to turn it off first-thing. Personally, I think people just don't li

The major benefit of slack over hipchat is slack comes with integrations by default. IE: instead of having to use Zapier or such to hook into Trello slack can handle it for you. HipChat only has an API you push to, whereas Slack can pull fr

Thanks for the note, and the concern. It is an issue. The risk I think you're saying is: if we charge a company with a stolen bank account and pay in bitcoin, it's irreversible. That's true. We're mitigating this — that&

We had exactly the same thought. We're working on a new feature so you can sign up independently from your employer, too. It's not quite ready and there's more legal matters to consider, though it's in the pipeline.
