I imagine the main part of the algorithm will be:

weight = title.toLowerCase().indexOf("cat") < 0 ? 0 : 1000;

“If we have it for restaurants, why [don’t] we have it for people?” one Twitter user offered the withering reply, “[B]ecause restaurants [don’t] kill themselves??”

I hope that the creators and the investors will be dragged through court (and rightfully so), if God forbid something like that happens.

Is it standard nowadays to charge customers for support? Checking out the pricing (and correct me if I'm wrong), does it really cost $5000/month to have 24/7 support? That seems crazy to me.

Now granted I pay about $300/month for the VM I have with my hosting provider, but I can pick up a phone at any hour and talk to a tech when things go south.

I really don't care how good a service is, I want to talk with a breathing human being when my business is down.

i don't get it, maybe its because i'm not a huge chess player, but hear me out. The the key to the puzzle was promoting to a bishop, but why not just promote to a queen? A queen can move directions just the same as a bishop. Am I missing something that required a bishop in order to complete this puzzle?

Edit: Thank you for the comment explaining this.

I block ads for one reason only: I don't want malware.. period.. the end.

The day ad companies actually have a conscience and won't sell to malware authors, is the day i'll stop blocking their ads.

And also the record store. Times change, industry needs to adjust. This isn't just the result of the internet, but technology and people's habit as a whole.

A company blog with no link back to the company's main site? Why do I see this mistake on so many of these?

It kills me that our legal system is like this. You should never has to "give in" simply because you face a harsher sentence if you exercise your right to defend yourself. I don't see why our justice system simply lowers sentences or fine individuals rather than tacking on ridiculous sentences.

Been an iHeartRadio fan for a few months now. Love the fact that they normal only play an ad when you first load it and thats it (and usually its an AllState ad with Dean Winters who was AWESOME in Oz).

Never really gave Google Play Music a shot since, quite honestly, no one every talks about it. I've tried Pandora and Spotify and they weren't all that great. Well Pandora was only good because if you install AdBlock you never got ads. I'll have to try it out and see if maybe a switch is in my future.

They are using Adobe ColdFusion which prior to version 10 was using JRUN as the JVM. Adobe doesn't even support nor let you download version 9 and below anymore.

Granted there are a couple hiccups moving from 9 to 10 but mostly (and understandably) it involved if you were calling Java directly. For the most part its pretty painless to upgrade.

I can't make heads or tails of what this does or the benefits of using it. Why not have an example or the page? So a comparison of a project without using your service and the benefits it will get by using it.

too late. i will never trust or download a thing on sourceforge ever again. sourceforge is dead and good riddens.

love how they called what they were doing a "test", that is so blatantly a lie its almost comical. The plain truth is that they are in a mist of a HUGE PR blowout and trying to back track before all their advertisers jump ship.

All this is is social engineering to trick the victim. This can be done with _anything_ if the victim is a trusting soul.

maybe I'm missing something. Is there any reason why they couldn't just pop the lids off the tanks and let nature do what it does, evaporate the water. Figure it could take a couple of years or so for all the water to evaporate and at the same time rain water would dilute whatever is in there.

not seeing this in Windows 7. Is this specific to Windows 8 and above?

What I don't understand about any of this is why anyone wouldn't just either move their project to Github or self host. Why would you even still have your project hosted on SourceForge?

I understand the author's grief and anger. I feel bad for them really as this will hurt the NMap brand, but come on, avoid the whole situation and just remove the project from SourceForge completely.

For my personal stuff I just use Google Drive. I don't think that Google is going to ever abandon it since its tied into all their products as the storage solution.

For my servers, I've been wanting _something_ that I can use Amazon S3 with. Just did a search and found out about CloudBerry (http://www.cloudberrylab.com/). This is perfect since I also have a NAS and scripts that backup the server nightly. With this I could essentially just install and repoint the existing script to the new drive. Also, S3 has built in versioning which is really nice.

constantly forget about this library. its so impressive with the amount of charts and features that it has. they really did an awesome job with it.

you could implement them in a portion of your application and see how things work out. For instance, have them as the search provider for a couple of your more popular products categories or something and fall back to your current solution for everything else (a little A/B testing if you will). by doing so, you can avoid hitting the limits and see if your ROI increases before implementing or dumping them.

this is why I personally feel we should have harsher and stricter law concerning what is considered a non-for-profit and also all their financials should be made public in an easy to digest manner that public can keep an eye on.

I don't get how its taken this long to see what these companies were spending their donations on and what they were paying out. Why can't this information be on a government website that lists this information in a grid so someone like me, who isn't an accountant by any means, can view and understand the information.

with the volume that they do, they aren't paying the fees you think they are.

Questions:

1) Why would I want people submitting a request through this application rather than just using Github issues tracking? Using them would create an additional channel of communication that I now have to not only check but sync. Rather have one channel of communication for my projects

2) I don't see anywhere that the questions and answer will be share with the community like they are with StackOverflow. Why would I want to hide valuable information behind a curtain that no one can see unless they sign up?

3) I personally see no benefit for a CLI interface. I don't see the value in learning a non-standard interface just to get help with something. Yea I can see the "look this is cool" factor, but honestly, I think that's all it is.

I can't even count how many of these startups have come and gone since the time I've been on Hacker News. They never seem to be around long and, quite honestly, I don't think the creators get that they are fixing something that isn't broken.

About time, but $25M is nothing for them.

Nowadays we have all our clients using Stripe for their CC processing, but back in the day, our clients could use anyone they want. One poor soul choose to use PayPal against our insisting he not. Three days before he had to give the security deposit to the convention center where his organization was hosting their conference, PayPal froze the account. I can't express the stress and despair this poor guy had in voice while talking to him, explaining there was nothing that I could do on my end and that he would have to contact PayPal and try to explain the situation and get the funds released. Ultimately the conference went on, but I never followed up to find out how, if he got the funds released, worked something out with the convention center or something.

totally understand that. i'm just wondering why the authors would want to write methods for DOM manipulation in the first place when they could piggyback off jQuery for that and concentrate on the other stuff.

Honest question. if there so many similarities between the two, then why not build the library as an jQuery plugin from the beginning?

as much as this is a good idea, remember that most people who buy a laptop just want to take it home and have it work. Add to that point that reinstalling from scratch typically involves finding all the drivers all over again and spending hours running through all the windows updates. This is something that most people DO NOT want to go through or have the knowledge to do so.

it has nothing to do with being "net positive" to those around you. You can be the best thing that has happened in people's lives. call it low self esteem, self worth, whatever, its just that for some reason, no matter how positive you are to them, you always feel like a burden.

could someone explain why their indiegogo campaign goal is only $500?
