Were they warned in a general sense? Or were they specifically targeted?

mind trying this again now? I just pushed a fix for the zeros bug...

Oops. Fix coming up now...

The whole point of this is to be as neutral as possible. If you look at the source code, which is btw available on github (https://github.com/Dwolla/fees-calculator), you'll see that I haven't hard coded anything. Which means that if one of the other gateways happens to be cheaper for a given scenario, they will be on top.

I understand where you're coming from, but again, the whole point was to try and stay neutral.

Ahh finally! Great work guys!

Thanks so much!

I'm guessing one that would be based in a foreign (and preferably hostile) country?

... And there I was all this time, thinking the 1% isn't even on Facebook..

Haha if stratfor bothered to encrypt anything, I trust that they would keep the encryption keys in their home folder in a file called "ENCRYPTION KEY.PRIVATE"

Military prison, European jail, fleeing and hiding in south America, etc...

I think that beyond customer perception, there is an actual question of legal liability here. If GoDaddy is purporting to be an expert in security and selling a service, that is supposed to ensure security, then they should be found liable for some degree malpractice.

I'd love to get a real lawyer's opinion on this...

To what extent do you think GoDaddy should be held liable for?

Notice how they have 2 godaddy badges. The one of the right is the SSL one, as you're describing. The one on the left however, actually reads: "Hacker Proof... Scanned by...".

Right. It really is just asking for trouble. Especially when your "guarantor" is a well known script kiddie...

I haven't downloaded the dump files yet, but from what I can tell, their entire db was stolen. Meaning, customers' names, emails, addys, credit cards, etc. But most importantly, they were able to decrypt the customers' passwords back into plain text, too...

Shocking.

Great idea!

I wonder what they'll do with customers who are already signed up for both...

Gotta appreciate some sense of humor.. Even when it comes in the expense of other coders ;)

Funny thing is - as a VPS hosting solution, they're actually pretty decent... If this is intentional, and I do believe it is, its border line genius. Way to go for catching this.

Unfortunately, not just yet... But - That's definitely a feature we're planning to add soon!

Hey guys! This is my latest weekend project... I was hoping to get your feedback and comments about it...

The idea is simple: Surprise Bag is a subscription service, thats sends you a surprise bag once a month. You never know what you're gonna get.. But its always gonna be something cool!

I'm not familiar with them.. And, google isn't proving helpful with finding them. Could you please point me to their website?

So here's a quick overview on how OpenBooth came to life:

Our site is mainly based on user photo submissions, and so we decided that having a photobooth would help us by making it easier for users to submit their original content. Naturally, we searched the net for some cool open-source webcam projects, but with the exception of 1 product that would have cost us over $5,000, we found nothing that suit our needs.

So, we decided to create OpenBooth - a fully customizable Photobooth Flash application. Check it out, and feel free to use it in your own site!

that's actually a great idea..

I guess I wasn't aware of any etiquette about not posting IP addresses. No harm meant... Is there a way to actually edit, or delete a post for that matter?

The extension adds an item that reads "Submit to HN" to your context menu (right-click).. Is it not visible for you?

The reason we made this was because we hate using the bookmarks bar.. It takes away valuable viewport space.. Cheers!
