Short answer - no. There's a lot of people over-reacting to this situation. If you read Twitter's blog post its clear that they're following up on enforcing the API "Rules of the Road" they've had for over a year. https://dev.twitter.com/

That seems pretty reasonable to me for a professional freelance design from scratch like that. I normally expect individual pages to cost in the range of $1k from scratch.

Wow, reading someone's heart rate from a video. Imagine that plugged into Google Glass. Overlay someone's heart rate next to their face while you're talking to them!

Whenever you authenticate an app in Facebook that can post to your feed, there is a drop down that lets you choose who can see your activity with the app. I always choose "just me" because of actions of apps like this. It's become the norm

I love the transparency. You definitely get the feeling Rand would be an amazing person to work with. I love that a funding announcement is so interesting that it will pull in tons of new customers.

Has anyone else had a better experience with the Google+ API? It really worries me that this means that no businesses can be built on top of the G+ API. Less developer investment means less options for users. Data becomes less open.

I think that the tech "gold rush" is still in it's early stages. It's still hard to convince investors in Aus that new ideas are worth betting on, so copy-cats with proven markets are currently leading the way. However, on the ground here I

Unfortunately this happens more than you might think and other Australian companies seem to have a similar approach to dealing with security findings. Many years ago I found a huge hole in a large company's Australian website that allowed m

I don't see any problems with this. The devs also have to balance the weight of breaking current applications using their existing url parsing. It also doesn't seem an unreasonable argument that users should expect node to carry on existing

UI would be a bit friendlier if; 1) The changes were more responsive. The delay is too long when scrolling and hovering over an element - should be around 100ms or so. If it takes time to load the content, show some visual signal (loading..

Thanks! We've got a fairly mature spidering architecture, so we're just using that to scrape the posts at scale. It's possible Google will block us, but we're pretty careful to rate limit and load balance across IPs. Plus, you know Google's

We just released this. I've wanted it ever since I started using Plus, so hopefully some of you will find it useful too :) I spent quite a bit of time getting the sharing correct - sharing Google+'s various data types is surprisingly hard t

Nudity detection is a hard problem, so hard that even the biggest companies tend to rely on crowd sourced systems, not computational ones. Is that what this is? Either way I definitely think you more information about how the system works,

Clearly there is something wrong with me as I found the game throughly enjoyable. I did go in with low expectations after reading a few reviews. However I also HATE God of War for its violence and misogyny. quite strange.

Are there any numbers on how many YC companies are now defunct? Would be interesting to see how this compares to the anecdotal 9/10 startups fail in the first year.

This process may be a preferable alternative to condoms, but it does not stop the spread of STDs. From the WHOs perspective there's no obvious benefit. I suspect this may be the real cause of their lack of interest.

I'm guessing there is some background missing on those highest payed - for example a discussion on why coach salaries are so high http://www.azcentral.com/sports/asu/articles/2009/09/20/2009... They are not funded out of taxpayer money.

Despite all the FUD around hashbangs, the genuine problem I see with them is that they optimise for internal page loads, not the entry into a website. For example with hashbangs, requests to twitter when logged in go like; 1) HTTP GET http

I still feel like it's not simple enough to be practical. I'd only really use a button that submitted the form behind the scenes. I think the extra step of filling out the fields is likely to drop my submission rate down to times I really g
