The latency to the West Coast Battle.net server is a very steady 12ms according to the Starcraft in-game UI.

You mean Stripe should add things like this? https://stripe.com/alipay

Do you think the amount of products being shipped to customers will be shrinking soon?

That turns into an advantage for Triplebyte, because you are actually applying to potentially several hundred companies at the same time.

Sorry if I am missing any sarcasm, but this seems totally backwards! Taxis are famous for racial discrimination while Uber drivers accept fares sight unseen.

Also, taxis are well known (at least in San Francisco) for illegally refusing fares to distant neighborhoods. Uber drivers simply can't refuse.

Finally, flagging a taxi is nearly impossible in a remote location, but calling an Uber driver from the app will work pretty much anywhere.

I'd like to think for the same reasons you don't sweep your backpack for bugs that your employer has planted on you, or check under your desk for secret spy cameras. Unless your employer has some sort of reputation, I don't see why the default should be to believe that they are morally bankrupt enough to run some kind of therapist sting operation.

Every product on Stripe:

https://stripe.com/subscriptions

Let's give reputable companies the benefit of the doubt.

Are you guys aware of Stripe's mailing list philosophy? https://stripe.com/blog/email-transparency I think it is genius, theoretically, but it is a bit difficult to get right technically. If you guys could implement a way for companies to adopt that without the need for lots of filter wrangling, that would be epic!

We are very sensitive to fraud, and a few bad apples found the checkout a little too low friction. ;)

We've been using Stripe Checkout at Humble Bundle for quite a while and it has been awesome. It is really easy to set up and once a customer has used it, it's incredibly easy to checkout in the future. Every couple weeks I hear about a new A/B test that is running to try to make it even better.

Mozilla uses Akamai as their CDN. As big as Mozilla is, a Firefox release probably is not even visible on a bandwidth graph.

I've been playing the awesome DropPhone app since 2012! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ungulation...

It is for their commercial portal: https://www.wellsfargo.com/com/

I am pretty sure that is actually illegal

If you use Google's hosted libraries, you can embed it like so, and it should seamlessly work over SSL.

We are working on updating our instructions in favor of a direct download approach, which seems to be way better. Sorry about the iTunes favoritism!

How about $9.49 / month

Dual authentication only occurs when you would normally be asked for a password, so assuming you have already linked your computer, you won't need to authenticate again.

Hehe, I suppose that is true. And you are most welcome, thanks for the support!

It was definitely a joke :) - Jeff from Humble Bundle

Sending to 1,000,000 subscribers costs $55,000+ per year on MailChimp and other premium services. A cheaper option with the same deliverability would be extremely attractive to anyone who doesn't like setting their money on fire!

I've seen worse. Here it is in 3 lines :) http://www.jimloy.com/puzz/9dots1.gif

Valve doesn't have the sales data of games that are not on the service though.

I believe Psychonauts is being delayed due to its massive size. I would not be surprised if there are technical hurdles for packaging it that need to be overcome for the Ubuntu team. We've actually received some support messages that certain file systems cannot actually contain a 4.5 GB file, which is a new one to me!

These new games, on the other hand, should be finished tonight.

Nah, Frozen Synapse was natively ported by Ryan Gordon.

You are technically correct, but you are belittling the amount of work that Codeweavers put into the LIMBO Linux version.

Negative, this is the first one.

Check out TermKit as a pretty awesome proof of concept for this: http://acko.net/blog/on-termkit/
