Each of your marketplace customers would need their own stripe account (we do this now). This would enable a single stripe account to be used for charging the cards, and your app controls the transfer of funds back to the marketplace vendo

This is cool, but the money has to be charged via credit card first right? It would be nice to transfer money from the bank account linked to stripe to another account, and as a user of Stripe's connect API, it would be nice to enable this

Installed and played with (1.3 I think) and it looks very promising but the ability to query and order by case-insensitive text is a requirement for us. Our app deals with user provided names of people, places and things that are commonly

Am I the only one that hardly ever needs a case-sensitive query/index on string data? This is the one feature I miss from the MySQL glory days. With postgres, I use the citext type (case-insensitive text) but I guess Mongo and ReThinkDB e

from the docs: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/innodb-memcached.html "MySQL 5.6 includes a NoSQL interface, using an integrated memcached daemon that can automatically store data and retrieve it from an InnoDB table. By default,

Just maxed my captcha failures and have to try again later. Either I'm going blind, I'm dumb, or their captcha is broken. Regardless, I hate captcha's -- there has to be a better way.

Rails is overkill for an api, I think grape https://github.com/intridea/grape has a lot of potential here. Put node.js in front of something like grape and you have the best of both worlds.

If you find a way to persist the popup please share, I spent the last 9 hours in all out battle. Basically chrome shit cans the window object on blur, the closest I came was pushing the popup body into the background page for resurrection

I was just reading through the docs and am getting ready to write my first extension and think I'm going to try and get backbone running in the content script where I believe it's state will be persisted through open/close of the popup. Tha

agree plus add Rails is very well suited for the client side hotness with the asset pipeline in Rails 3. However I just tossed Rails after many years for 2 primary reasons: 1) Anything that might take a sec or more has to be moved out of th

I believe the HTTP spec defines a GET as a representation of a resource and a POST as modifying or updating a resource, so google bot doing POSTS is not very neighborly.

Granted I blazed through the docs and am not a node expert, but for a streaming web framework I could not find a reference to streaming responses. It is very Rackish, all examples I found point to calling callback(200, {}, "Hello world!");

You pay first, then get a refund if you do not select a winning design. The benefit of focused attention is not for "small graphical flourishes", rather it takes less of your time so you can move on to other things. This is where I think

not sure why so many people pimp 99designs. It's on the author's "priceless" list, but it's the only tip he spends 6 bullet points instructing how to overcome 99design crap. I tried them once, spent a lot of time collaborating with design

Yes, I've since read other comments and have a better understanding of the reasoning behind .attr and .prop, so I'm a little less bah-humbug about having to refactor before upgrading. It appears that search/replace .attr('value') => .v

I'd prefer the convenience, as I have yet to code up some jquery and think "damn, .attr is a dog", and now I have to refactor a bunch of code before I can upgrade, and the reality of it is that I won't. jQuery is awesome, but this is the f

Love it, I never went to school for cs, founded a company that did very well, and reached a point where I needed to move on. I was the chief geek, so the board wanted to replace me with someone credentialed, and all I heard from him during
