This is a project I have been working on. Its a simplistic website builder. Cell phone compatible, full login system, easily add template sections to your site then fill out the simple html form to add your content. Easily add a image gallery, youtube videos, etc. It allows you to build a website in a day or less. Easily pick your own nav bar, visual design based. Basically trying to remove the developer out of web development. It checks for SEO and warns if its missing, has a full referral system built in, three tiered, including a visual circle pack graph of your referral network. Easily enable facebook login, add google analyitics, etc. Anything that would be a normal requirement of a website I have added or I am currently adding. Let me know what you think. This site was built with it.

It is all based on bootstrap grid system, and I have a few display bugs to still fix but I have been mostly focusing on functionality. It even has a way to create a book, currently disabled while I move it to my code.

A crypto currency exchange where the coins remain on the customers device and the coins can be instantly withdrawn from the exchange with 0 fees and 0 confirmation wait times. Email me at my username @ yahoo . com if your interested.

Actually I think he increases his chances of getting paid by your own reasoning. Who says it has to be paid by Romney? The 1 million Bit Coins could be paid by anyone with a desire to make him look guilty, but not something that might cause an issue with the election (like the release of stolen tax documents of the candidate). If the blackmail is paid the day before the 28th, everyone will assume Romney was hiding something, even if he wasn't.

In my opinion the reason poorer people have less IQ then wealthier people, and also why adopted poor babys into middle class homes have higher IQ's comes down to what they spend their time thinking about. Poorer people spend their time worrying about food, money and basic needs. This occupys alot of their thought. Richer people don't need to worry about the basic needs and spend their time worrying about larger more complicated things.

I agree with your hypothesis that they learn just enough to accomplish x. That has always been how I do anything. I didn't learn how to write websites that interact with a db, I had an idea that I wanted to accomplish and I learnt enough to do it. This has helped me learn how to tie into a db, create interactive services and perform FFT on thousands of devices to identify bad cables based on their preequalization data.

I actually have a bot that has been doing this for several years. It stores word relations and keeps track of what words are used with others. It then can rank potential words that it has seen from your query before and use those as a subject to build a sentence from or as a highly targeted query for searching.

This is to be expected. Even for isp bandwidth 5% of the customers use 95% of the bandwidth. But like internet bandwidths, the 5% that use the most are also the most vocal. People communicate and the bigger pain they are, the more they communicate with others.

The sheer idea that bad doctors don't get through the "qualification" area is insane. They have just as many bad people getting through the qualification period that you speak of. The main difference would be if you didn't have a CS course. Then you start to enter a grey area.

And also I myself have been to more bad doctors then good doctors. There is just as big of gap between the poor doctors and the good doctors as there is in programming.

I am already thinking of far better uses for this then ketchup.

How about spraying inside of fire hoses, pumps etc? The main benefit is the massive reduced friction. More energy efficient pumps, less wear and tear etc.

I would then extrapolate the idea of smooth flowing ketchup to air and wonder if this would reduce the drag caused by air if you coated your car in it etc.

No bugs sticking to your cars front window. Water and dirt don't stick to your paint etc.

And this is just after a few minutes of thinking of the potential uses for it.

I can't believe the general attitude programmers are putting forward. Here is a person in the medical field that requires at least twice the schooling, huge entry barriers etc getting an hour interview.

We are subjected to full day flights, multiple phone interviews etc.

She deals with life, not code.

This tells me one of two things. Either our hiring practices are severally broken, or its harder to program then be a doctor.

Once Carpathia decides to delete/sell/get rid of the data the case will be dropped. The US government only has to keep this tied up in court until Carpathia (which legally could delete the data) deletes the data. Once the evidence is gone they can easily escape from this horrible mess they have created. "Your honour, I have some bad news. Since Carpathia has deleted the data we no longer have a plausable way to continue with this case."

Megaupload destroyed, goverment doesn't have to pay them anything (after all it was Carpathias fault) etc.

They can't just drop the case because mega upload is an email blast away from being full on running again. Users don't have to resign up, reupload data or anything. That is why the data needs to be destroyed, which I believe is the end goal of the United States Government.

Here is my approach on how to find scrappers.

They are already supplying fake data to see if they are being scrapped.

Using this fake data they can find all the sites that are using their scrapped data. Congrats we now know who is scrapping you with a simple google search.

Now comes the fun part. Instead of supplying the same fake data to all, we need to supply unique fake data to every ip address that comes to the site. Keep track of what ip, and what data you gave them.

Build your own scrapper's specifically for the sites that are stealing your content and scrape them looking for your unique fake data.

Once you find the unique fake data, tie it back to the ip address we stored earlier and you have your scrapper.

This can be all automated at this point to auto ban the crawler that keeps stealing your data. But that wouldn't be fun and would be very obvious. Instead what we will do is randomize the data in some way so its completely useless etc.

Sit back and enjoy

The important part to this article isn't that they are doing this. Its that they are back tracking on their own statements of why the caps were needed in the first place.

If you remember when they were arguing for the caps the main reason was the cost to deliver to the last mile. This clearly shows that is not the case as they have given all of their customers additional bandwidth above and beyond their stated plans.

Kind of makes the reason for caps in the first place null and void.

How about solar satellites beaming energy down to the earth. We get hit by a very minor amount of sunlight from the sun.

Only 0.000000724654% of it reaches the Earth. That’s 7.24654 billionths of the Sun’s total light.

the earth receives about 274 million gigawatt-years of solar energy

Put another way, the solar energy hitting the earth exceeds the total energy consumed by humanity by a factor of over 20,000 times.

And thats only only 0.000000724654% of the suns output. Now once we start harvesting our relatively unlimited power source food will no longer be a problem. Build 100 story greenhouse's etc.

I am hardly concerned about our future growth, considering we now have plans to start mining bodys in space. Perfect launch spot for providing our future energy needs. In fact I wouldn't be supprised if the energy is the main factor in planetary resources future plan to add trillions of dollars to the gdp.

This is a site I have been working on for a month or two now.

Looking to get a feedback while I build it. I try to find at least a few hours a day to work on it and would love to implement your ideas.

Thanks

Not quite sure why we would want to get it down to earth myself. Think of the markup you could sell it for by just leaving it in space. No more need to launch rockets carrying materials/prefabs - it will just happen in space.

"Yea, I know our iron is XXX% more, but you know its already in space...."

And if its for mining for energy just create the energy in space and beam it down. Rather simple.

What I don't like about this is that they were allowed to turn the devices on again that were illegally placed in the first place. They should have had to turn them off forever because they were illegally placed. I would compare this to collecting evidence without a warrant, getting the warrant and then using that evidence. (which as far as I know is grounds to have the evidence thrown out)
