this could be a good publicity stunt for DDG, sue google for trademark infringement(probably even a legit case here)...which will get you a lot of press covering how Google is so scared of DDG

maybe he meant the yearly "annual report" fee. i.e. in my state it was something like $125 to register and $50/yr for the LLC.

the site relies on pretty much everyone being part of the site for it to be effective and checking it 24/7 to see if someone noticed them. Which is just never going to happen. Yes, it's going to be a pageview generator, since you'll have pe

to be honest, it doesn't seem like it would have that much staying power. The dynamics are just not there. Right now there is a ton of traffic because it's the hot new thing on campus, but essentially it's the missed encounters section of c

focus chances are you go to school for 4-6 hours a day at most. Then you have homework etc for another 3-4 hours(hardly). That still leaves you with 7-8 hours a day to work on your startup. And once you finish coding, there is really no req

maybe apple should just start charging those who reserve names. A real developer would be willing to pay $50/mo to keep their name reserved during the time it takes to release the app. A cyber squatter will go broke reserving 500 different

yeah YC does love it's steaks... here is the difference, with YC, you actually have your own company at the end. YC gives you 20K when you have nothing. In this case, you get $0...and only if you hit a homerun, do you get $10K. Completely d

$10K? That probably wouldn't pay for a single programmer's efforts to do this...essentially you'll be working for Microsoft for free. Hell Microsoft, at least do like Netflix and make the prize something worth pursuing.

-who says they'd want to filter them out completely? -i'm in the position, that our speed laws are outdated. Cars are now much more stable at speeds. Hell you can go 140mph in a M3 without actually feeling it. Hell it doesn't even have to b

my problem isn't with the DMV aspect, since they can't do anything with it....my problem is with the insurance companies, who might just decide to factor this into their rate calculations. And since the rates seem to be taken from thin air,

that's an old wives tale, ever called the cops yourself? I did. Was involved in a hit and run, reported the guy right away, took them 2 hours to show up. Had a tree fall on power lines, took them and the fire department 40 minutes to show u

when you speed you break the law, which is why you have the right to go to court to fight a ticket. If I get charged with speeding, and get 4 points on my license because some asshat thought I was speeding then I should have the right to cr

so your friend ties up the 911 line over some petty bullshit like someone doing +5mph? Just fyi, the cops hate your friend, and I'd bet that they've never acted on a single one of his tips

reporting to the DMV and the insurance companies is over the top...those 2 entities specifically ignore vigilantism and your record can only be affected if a police officer who actually knows the law issues a citation. all this will do is o

the problem is that Walmart doesn't put it's suppliers out of business. They have low margins, but the volume more than makes up for them, while Groupon requires their suppliers to operate at a loss, because they've been tricked into thinki

yeah if you have a real a business, making real revenue, then selling really isn't a huge priority, and you can work on making something really huge. However, I do think that Groupon is an exception to this. You can't build a long lasting b
