Security against NSA/espionage really shouldn't be a concern considering nobody that paranoid would even use this app, let alone pay for it.

This is great! I could definitely see myself using this if my life was more interesting than home -> work -> home (mon-fri).

And if weather permits, home -> beach -> home (weekends).

Either way, it works in favour of Google to the detriment of MS.

You may have lost your dream, but you have gained time to focus on your family and well being.

22/hour in Sydney? Half of the salary will go to rent and bills.

It is not clear what metrics are used to measure progress over time.

The business model of Pricenomics seems to be that of placing more power in the hands of the consumer, increasing buyer bargaining power. This is what many vendors, especially tech vendors such as Apple/Google try to avoid. Product release cycles are kept secret for good reason.

>So? Is Gold a ponzi scheme too? No, gold is used in almost every electronic device because of its conductive properties.

I've never enjoyed using Java.

If you have time look at Scala (Scalatra/Play Framework) or Clojure (Ring). You can reduce the size of your codebase dramatically.

Sounds like an interesting game. Too bad I can't see any of the images.

I think it shows an internal party struggle. People in the Wiki Leaks Party disagree with the way it is being run -- basically a vote of no confidence for JA. Not damning, just embarrassing for the WLP.

I also find the graphics to be a little bit difficult to read.

It is hard to tell where the lines lead, so I need to rotate the globe. Also for European nations, it is very messy because some of the countries are tiny and all trade with each other. There is also no way to see arms trade over time, which would have been quite useful since the data has a time-series.

Very pretty looking 3D graphic though.

Try calling sales and ask to be transferred to support.

Apple sales enquiries For sales enquiries call 1800 425 4646 (toll free) or 080 2574 4646. Lines are open Monday-Saturday, 09:30-18:30.

Support line will probably still be busy, but it is worth a shot.

If only having loads of money was coupled with an obligation to be fair...

From Ichan's Twitter bio: "Some people get rich studying artificial intelligence. Me, I make money studying natural stupidity."

Ichan probably foresaw the impact of his tweet. He probably made millions, and will make a few more million by taking a short position on AAPL in the coming days.

Looks like there is a company that creates these items of exaggerated price to farm traffic http://www.topcoolstuff.com/double-lines-above-x-canvas-art-....

Anyone else find speaking commands out loud to distract from thought?

"slap... slap... jog... dot... word... chk... slap... snore"

"Career-wise I think it will show any employers I know how to use a Microsoft Office product"

"With school, I'll be able to write reports and essays and stuff and make it a bit more fancy, to hopefully get a few extra marks."

Is this a joke?

>Any tool that claims to make coding easier is nullified by the fact that you have to still have to learn that tool too!

This statement is proven false by the number of IDE's that claim to make coding easier, and in fact do.

Noflo makes code easier to maintain and collaborate on by providing a visual map of how code is designed. The benefits of which should be plainly apparent if you have ever been tasked with maintaining >10,000 of lines of code.

noflo looks like a novel yet familiar way of designing software, which really glues well with TDD.

I don't sense a very strong emphasis on runtime profiling from the video or the description, but if this were a core feature then it would certainly add value to the product.

Looks like a rock to me...

The controller directive is necessary to determine the scope of the variables/functions embedded in the view.

But I do agree on the point that designers would certainly gag when seeing this... A developer would need to go though the deign and insert all the hooks. This step is unavoidable with any web application framework.

That being said, I think a designer would puke if they were required to write React components.

I'm struggling to find an advantage that React has over AngularJS.

+1 for AngularJS

You seem to be a good writer and very articulate. However, therein lies your problem. Your blog, too long. Your product page ... way to long.

My suggesting is before throwing money at marketing, get some feedback from some local business managers on your product page. Cut it down to something that takes 1 min to get the gist of. Put more images/icons to help explain or highlight certain points.

Photo sharing is said to be core to what Facebook users value.

I see Instagram as a defensive acquisition -- they don't want to lose market share to a competitor. It took Instagram only two years to reach 100 million users.

Yahoo sells advertising, Tumblr has users. But a $1Bn valuation is over-inflated in today's market -- Tumblr barely broke even when they started introducing ads last year.

Customers, skills, and market position (as the go-to todo app) are all contributing factors. I think they intend to expand the scope of the services they deliver -- collect data and hopefully, sell out to a larger company.

Agreed. But still quite impressive considering that a single quantumn chip (?) can solve in 1 day what it would take a conventional PC 10 years to solve.
