In the Netherlands you can even buy simcards in supermarkets, almost every supermarket is a virtual provider itself. If you go to a telecomshop they'll install it for you. Your describing something that's completely foreign to everyone over here.

Why would you believe a company that said about the antenna issue on the iPhone 4: "You're holding it wrong". There are way more complaints and pictures to be found on this issue than the ones that Apple reports.

"You're holding it wrong" is my expected response.

Probably put these apps should compensate for the fact that humans can't run that fast nor that they can run over water.

The funny thing about the article is that he tells us that gamers don't own the word "Gamer" and gamers that don't agree with his view of the word gamer can suck it. Which is basically how every tumblr blog seems to work.

The app is only available in the US appstore for now.

That was exactly my thought so there is no "lucky" after all. At least not for sure.

How would you know for sure that it didn't dump the database to somewhere in Asia once "they" have your server under control? Serious question, because how can you trust the logs? (Mind you, I'm not that technical)

This is really great I'm finishing up my course on codecademy and will look to this for my next step :)

Reminds me of this youtube clip that gives an example of exactly what you mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQ4c54rCJ_k

I agree with you about the competition bit. I immediately thought: "Oh how surprising the cute girl is in second position" (I dont have a clue who shanley is). So focusing more on how they make a difference instead of a silly selfie would be a good first step indeed.

I've never heard of Gittip nor Patreon before reading this article. Looking at both websites the website for Patreon is much more engaging and less cluttered. Gittip looks intimidating with all those small pictures and numbers going around. A good redesign for the index would propel the business more than all those commits. Love both ideas though :)

Those 11% isn't worth helping? And should be subsidized by the government?

Ofcourse, but imagine that most/all publishers are out of business and Amazon will give you a very low margin, because they can...

The problem lies here: "well, i can only say i procrastinate"

The entire frontpage should be A/B-tested with some conversion experts. There is a lot of room for improvement if you look at the CTA's, buttons, comparison between free and premium, etc.

Damn, bought some bitcoins yesterday guessing the value would restore in seconds after a release from Mt.Gox. Probably going to buy some more now ;)

WeTransfer (wetransfer.com) is pretty popular in the Netherlands. It's easy to use, only requires an e-mailadress and allows you to send files up to 2GB and as an added bonus it's quite pretty. I really love it's simplicity.

Deflation is exactly why Bitcoin is flawed. Why would I buy something today if it's cheaper tomorrow? When people stop spending our current system grinds to a halt...
