The DPLA who is handling this has a pretty great API. Check it out: http://dp.la/info/developers/codex/

Many commercial OSS offer paid support or support an "Enterprise" version of the OSS product. Zenoss ([http://www.zenoss.com/]) is a good example of this.

Personally, I see OSS projects that have this business plan as less risky since they are less likely to stagnate due to exhaustion.

I can't speak to the author, but I have a loved one with a serious skin condition who has tried just about everything under the sun. Only recently have they found an ointment that works and it is ~$70/oz. Not all anti-fungals are created equal.

Someone might mention that the ebook (PDF, ePub and mobi) is provided free in the link.

The Margaritaville stages of debugging:

1. It's nobody's fault

2. It could be my fault

3. It's my own damn fault

I've told my family that I want to be mummified in honey when I die, similar to mellified man: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mellified_man

If the concern is actually about enabling people to restrict what their children see, why not create and distribute a free, open-source software package that citizens can run on their own?

Obviously the question is rhetorical, but I'd like to see someone ask it.

Just ordered mine. With the three months of Netflix included, my cost is only $11. Ridiculous.

My daughter actually asked me to install the XP version of MSPaint when she got a new laptop with Windows 7.

I enjoy the format of email newsletters and several use Mailchimp. For some reason, the email newsletters I have purposefully subscribed to and want to read are going to the Promotions tab. I can see how that would be a problem.

I understand the negative reaction to the word "marketing", but anything I don't want to see shouldn't show up in my Inbox at all as it should be flagged as Spam.

A friend's daughter has a Kurio Android tablet, which seems very similar to this.

I'd really like to see any technical specs on this, but can't seem to find any on http://www.xotablet.com/ or http://www.vivitar.com/

Sounds a lot like high school to me :-)

The Bittorrent tracker software used to run What.CD, a popular music torrent site.

In my experience with iOS music apps, most of them use IAP. YMMV.

Thanks!

I have the PiMAME image ready to go at home, but after reading this I think I'll try out the Pi Store (http://store.raspberrypi.com/projects) on my existing Raspbian install first.

At first I thought this was about https://crypto.cat/

And maybe this is the answer to the NSA's CryptoCat.

The Wikipedia page has a list of interesting projects based on FUSE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_in_Userspace#Example...

I'd like to know more about the plotter. Any plans or links to share?

What sort of relays/pumps are needed for the hydroponics control? I just planted a garden and have been thinking about how I'm going to water it.

When exactly do you bake a new AMI? On every Soundslice deploy?

A response to this article on Redis: http://aphyr.com/posts/283-call-me-maybe-redis

Might want to change the title to note that it is the New Zealand Supreme Court, not the US Supreme Court.

That makes sense. Would be legal to capture the data and present it similar to a search engine? I'm guessing there is some sort of precedent for that sort of thing?

Seems like scraping all closed captioning would be very valuable data indeed. Is there anyone else doing something like this that provides an API or data feed?

I know a software architect who was formerly an actual architect. His Facebook profile says: Architect (Buildings, not computers) and Architect (Computers, not buildings)

Ready for VC funding now.

That is the (excellent) 2012 Microconf talk. This link is the 2013 slideshow.
