This is more or less how graphile, https://github.com/graphile/worker is implemented.

Yup, this was happening in Kendall Sq in Cambridge for awhile until the city quietly asked everyone to move - http://www.boston.com/business/technology/innoeco/2012/04/2_...

2 bd w/ living room apartments were cheaper than office space across the street.

The NFL actually has it's own network - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFL_Network They have a couple of specialty programs like "NFL Red Zone" which shows every football game simultaneously, something which regular channels (ABC, NBC, Fox) can't do because of licensing restrictions.

For what its worth, you can side load APKs on an unlocked Kindle just like any other Android device. Obviously that still doesn't get around not having access to Google's own apps like Gmail though.

I wouldn't advocate it as a rule of thumb but in my experience agencies end up producing things like http://boloco.com/ which if you started with Bootstrap you'll end up spending most of your time fighting against it.

As you pointed out, a CSS framework would certainly help but I'd argue in that case you might be better of starting with something else.

Your second example is actually how Doctrine 1.2+ works. You could define your models in a YAML file which was then transformed into PHP classes at runtime.

That of course, leads to the issue of having your configuration separate from your implementation/code.

HTTPs would work but also if you scroll down a bit and look at the policy JSON (http://pastie.org/private/tkr7iyqzqrezmmqazbfijw), it has an "expiration" field which would mitigate the type of attack outlined in the parent post since after a period of time the signature would no longer be valid.

Sure - check out http://aws.amazon.com/articles/1434

What you're interested in is:

"signature" - "A signature value that authorizes the form and proves that only you could have created it. This value is calculated by signing the Base64-encoded policy document with your AWS Secret Key, a process that I will demonstrate below."

The full piece is an interesting read on the Becker-Posner blog as well - http://www.becker-posner-blog.com/2012/09/do-patent-and-copy...

fyi, your header menu is breaking for me - http://i.imgur.com/nstFX.png - Firefox 15.0.1 on Ubuntu 11.

Potentially not, many MTA relays will retry a couple of times before completely giving up.

The sender might also get a delivery failure message from the relay.

This jab is awesome "SiteCore has a mind of its own. It will automatically add a shape attribute to links."

Do you know how accurate that is? Every time I've seen census zip code data it comes with a big disclaimer that its only accurate as of the last census. The USPS changes zip codes at will.

I think the "STOP SOPA" banners on Twitter are pretty effective and if Google added one of those it would be a strong statement - http://www.blackoutsopa.org

http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/3583 might be a good starting point assuming that an implementation of lambda calculus qualifies as a LISP (it should).

Well for one, you can use any client side tools you want since they will be server language agnostic. And as others have pointed out, having to learn a new language/framework/etc is going to introduce another huge risk.

At the end of the day, a beautifully written app with the latest and greatest technology with zero users isn't going to help you build a business.

Granted it's pompous but if you're going to spend the money a single malt is probably a good investment. Stop by a quality store and they'll be able to pick one out to fit your tastes.

This is going to be an unpopular answer but you could take your .NET skillset and start developing applications running on Mono - http://www.mono-project.com/Main_Page - now and then see where the path takes you.

Best of luck!

Check out Hive - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Home - it uses a "SQL like" syntax to let you run ad-hoc queries across data in a Hadoop+HDFS cluster. We're using it to run reporting nightly on ~10gb of data and are pretty happy with it.

Thanks for the feedback. Updated the copy to make that a bit more clear.

We're only using Facebook to pre-fill fields so that users don't need to manually enter their first name, last name, birthday.

All three "levels" use the same dataset to verify the information. We use a third party provider that provides a look up service against a mix of credit and government issue data.

Would love any additional feedback!
