   I am asking in general, but am specifically interested in Spreedly. They are storing credit card data (which counts as "processing" "personal data") for many EU firms but don't appear to be Safe Harbor accredited.

   Do you have any examples of live web-based games that are doing this with Node?

   To be clear, it's mandatory to pay for a "TV license" if you consume live broadcasts in any way, regardless of the platform on which you do it [1]. Getting rid of your TV isn't enough if you keep your web browser tuned to BBC One on www.bbc

   It would be great if the first example used something more real world than 'power levels'.

    Looks like Python, but it doesn't interpret... it executes.

    It could accept another signal (e.g. SIGUSR1) and have this clearly documented.

    This was a very good talk - a whistle-stop tour of Prolog. It would have been interesting to hear more about your thoughts on embedded logic systems for other, general languages (having looked at some of the python libs myself recently) - t

    I was thinking about this problem recently, primarily around a service for outsourcing the optimisation of functions (e.g. inner loops). For this it would be useful to be able to define unit tests and set execution time limits. Done well, t

    Surely the issue is that users of 3D printers will be able to manufacture guns at a lower time cost, material cost and with much lower skill required? i.e. buying a 3D printer plus material and sending a blueprint file to it is an order of

    For me, the bookmarklet tutorial pointed the arrow at the address bar and then congratulated me when I overwrote the page's URL with javascript by dropping the button. (Firefox 15.0.1 on Linux). But I do like the idea!

    It's because interacting with the app felt like interacting with a page in a word processor. e.g. in Microsoft Word, if you select Heading Style, type heading text and then hit enter, the cursor is moved to a new paragraph (with the style a

    I enjoyed the get-going immediacy - something more apps should do more of. One thing that threw me off my stride: hitting return in the Article Title field let me make arbitrarily multiline article titles. I expected it would take my cursor

    Great answer - thanks - and I see it on the leanpub page too. But maybe move it up top in case your comments there scroll it off the bottom of the Disqus section? I am actually resident in the UK and buying a copy shortly!

    This looks good. But it wasn't clear to me that the author is talking about the UK (primarily? exclusively) without reading a fair amount of the page.

    I would love to see a demo linked from the home page.

    It needs a way to stop the user messing with a demo - by temporarily disabling certain elements for click events etc? (I expect this is already an option, but wasn't enabled on the demo on this page.)

    So app stores should make a big, big thing of showing other users who are currently buying, last bought n hours ago etc.? I see more hospitality industry sites are doing this in the last years, e.g. booking.com.
