Thank you for the feedback. Sent you an email.
How does outline work? how do they get around the login feature
Good find OP! I wonder how many electronic devices would have similar problems if we took out the covers?
Do research on fast growing internet markets (think Asia/Africa - may need to go one level deeper like a region or major city).
Then see if that country or region has a dominant job board/classified website/real estate listing etc.
Millions of users are just coming to the internet in those countries and have room for growth. Many of the existing websites offer horrible experience.
I would think BBC would do some fact checking. I posted this comment in another blogger's article. [1]
"The author's entire premise is off. The recent filing is a continuation of an application filed on Feb 3, 2000 (see patent 6,609,113). So, Chase wasnt taking a 'swipe' at Bitcoin because the original application was filed 13 years ago."
The author's entire premise is off. The recent filing is a continuation of an application filed on Feb 3, 2000 (see patent 6,609,113). So, Chase wasnt taking a "swipe" at Bitcoin because the original application was filed 13 years ago. (Hmmm, is Chase...Satoshi?)
The real surprising thing is that Amazon is accelerating the post industrial age. The economy is growing but wages are stagnant. A demand for human labor is declining while corporations are making massive profits. These drones are an example where machines are replacing jobs that were once done by humans.
As we pull out of the recession in the US, the fastest growing job market is the low wage/retail jobs. Walmart will have to match the technologies of Amazon as they fight for market share. Leading to more and more automation of human tasks. During this past thanksgiving there were worker strikes in some Walmart stores for a living wage (~$15/hr). What happens to society when these jobs are not even available?
The most interesting part of the 60 minutes interview was not the drones but this:
Charlie Rose: Is Amazon ruthless in their pursuit of market share?
Jeff Bezos: The Internet is disrupting every media industry, Charlie, you know, people can complain about that, but complaining is not a strategy. And Amazon is not happening to book selling, the future is happening to book selling.
so just like comedy, timing is everything?
US has banned 'software patents' long time ago. However, you can still patent a software being performed by a processor or computer, which then becomes 'hardware'. NZ has now caught up with US. It is not what you think it is.
I think PG lives by the KISS method.
Remember "Offer HN" trends? - the entire front page was filled with "Offer HN"
- followed by blog posts about why it sucks
- followed by blog posts telling those people calm down
- people were asking for separate URL for "Offer HN" like "ask"
These things are kinda gimmicky and will usually die off within a week or so.
Getting back to whatever I was doing...
I think luck was a big part of it. Plus, Tumblr is a really cool name (compared to Posterous ), it's catchy, unique, and 'hip'.

It seems that media just read the title of the bill and ran with it.
Explain it to me as a 5 year old:
This is not a true 'first to file'. You basically get 1 year grace period.
Example: John gives a speech on his invention. Mark files a patent a month later after hearing John's speech. John then files a patent application 6 months later. Mark's application cannot be used against John's application as prior art,even though, Mark filed a application first.
This was generally the practice before AIA. As most people would say it harmonizes US patent laws with around the world. In other words, mostly semantics...

Claim 1 states:
"A method of swinging on a swing, the method comprising the steps of: a) suspending a seat for supporting a user between only two chains that are hung from a tree branch; b) positioning a user on the seat so that the user is facing a direction perpendicular to the tree branch; c) having the user pull alternately on one chain to induce movement of the user and the swing toward one side, and then on the other chain to induce movement of the user and the swing toward the other side; and d) repeating step c) to create side-to-side swinging motion, relative to the user, that is parallel to the tree branch."
Now go find prior art for this where it shows steps a, b, c, d. Not easy anymore is it?
Obviously, common sense should have played a huge part. But common sense by it self is not patent law. You still need evidence to support your common sense.
dctoedt is right. Humans make mistake.

Not a tax lawyer, but doesn't the Jobs family pay 35% death tax? The writer intentionally does not mention this. Although this is not income tax, its false to suggest that they are someway cheating the system.
Edit: grammer
I certainly understand your point but the point of the poll is to find out if GoDaddy users are actually taking actions (to find out if there will be a mass exodus).
did you get your meeting?

>This is completely untrue. Players that go to the NBA one year out of college are the exception and not the rule.
This years first top 10 picks:
4 Freshman 3 Internation players (ages 18, 19, 21) 1 Sophmore 1 Junior 1 Senior
If you are any good or hyped, you are draft in the first year..
Most NBA players are scouted from very early on (AAU), then to college for 1 year, then to NBA. They do not get a chance to learn about how to manage money (compared to a regular joe: summer job, internship, etc..).
Most of the inner city kids have a distrust of "the system" or "the man". Therefore, they would never trust their income to a players assoc.
Whats should be done is to establish a class on How to Manage Your Money 101 by the league/PA.

No, but it is a intellectual property question. My point was that if you violate a trademark even though you independently came up with it, the same would apply for patents.
