From EngineYard: "It looks like EBS IO in the us-east-1 region is not working ideally at this point. That means all /data and /db Volumes which use EBS have bad IO performance, which can cause your sites to go down."

Not technically. Technically, they were not allowed to process PAYMENTS in the US, so most of the poker site operators moved their payment processing internationally. If you made a deposit or a withdrawal to one of these services, you would

They shouldn't be able to seize them at all. No transactions were occurring in the US, which (at least by the poker sites' arguments) makes them legal businesses.

WHOA, that's really big news for the poker industry. These are all very large, very big businesses (talking billions of dollars) in the US. Can anyone confirm if their poker clients are still functioning properly?

Neat. Do the columns/wording ("92b more than Microsoft") change dynamically if the order changes (not that it's happening anytime soon)?

I work at Myspace (but I do not speak for the company). I'm not really privy to all the information in the world here just being an engineer, but I do know that it was really expensive to lay off everyone in January, and they've definitely

Definitely "Javascript Web Applications" out of those options. Apps is misleading and informal. "Javascript Applications" is ambiguous, and the only people who will understand "Stateful" probably already know what's in the book. "Modern Jav

"Gandhi was erratic,irrational, tyrannical, obstinate. He sometimes verged on lunacy. He believed in a religion whose ideas I find somewhat repugnant. He worshipped cows." That line from the article is ridiculous. Anyway, it is not an ori

I think the idea of NOT letting the recipient opt out of the gifted money is much better. GiftRocket, get on that!

Design is nice, but the UI/information architecture is confusing - lot of information that I don't understand, and the nomenclature is awkward. I would suggest showing less information, i.e. you don't need to show who submitted the links on

Small UI considerations: - Top and bottom navs need rollovers, as well as the sign-up button - Support page textbox hover effects are awkward and inconsistent, and the button needs a rollover and a cursor: pointer - Same with the signup pag

I...couldn't resist. I am sure there is a way they could have made this more difficult, say, doing the lookup server-side.

I feel that way about a lot of these "tech bloggers." A lot of them just have the wrong combination of immaturity, poor writing skills, and little sense of journalistic integrity.

Not necessarily. AdBlock is the most popular extension for Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:1/cat:a... 440,000 people download it a week. That's a lot of people not even seeing their search ads!

The first thing I thought when I saw Chrome was that they want to stop/override programs like AdBlock for their search ads.

I don't see why you need a reset button at all. I don't think I've ever gone through a form and decided at the very end, after filling everything in, that I needed to just do it all over again with completely new values in every input box.

Judging from this video, it seemed like kind of an iffy investment. They stated one competitive advantage over the few sites they mentioned like profilactic, which was that they would push content instead of just pulling. In reality, though

I would hope not. Since hair grows at a speed of 1/2 inch/month and burns at a speed of 1/2 inch/minute, you'd either need to start out with a lot of hair, or risk spending most of your time applying a flame to fledgling hair sprouts around
