There is a QR code drawn in Elliot's journal that leads to www.conficturaindustries.com (one of the URLs linked to the same SSL cert) - the same company name that is on the front of the journal. And the meticulous…
I think it depends on the primary use case (for accounting vs banking) - I know a lot of people who are earning barely livable wages as 1099 employees and they are often tempted to spend everything they earn (need to…
strict password requirements are usually a requirement for regulated businesses (such as those creating back accounts). Having a secure password for an account that manages your money is a good thing!
A CS degree obviously is not meant to give people 100% of the skills they need to work in the real world. It builds a foundation of core knowledge about the field that does not usually come from a hacker bootcamp or…
looks like Blank Slate can also do that (notes start as private but you can "publish" them, giving you a public URL). Other cool things about this one are that it is open source (https://github.com/tomasienrbc/notes)…
Seems to me like the layout is basically as minimal as possible, so that would lend itself to looking similar to others that don't have the normal bells and whistles. I think the point is that this is a site where you…
The keys used by KMS are stored in an AWS-managed hardware security module (HSM) on-site and never go outside that data center. This means that even if the person had physical access to the data center, they should not…
(from regular Microsoft employee perspective): this article does make them seem like that. Usually, in my interactions with Legal Compliance, they make sure everything we do is 100% legal, and prevent us from even…

"we’re all pretty sure that the Android royalties are larger in that division than the Windows Phone revenues." -Forbes Please don't incorrectly paraphrase a speculative comment.
Daniel Willingham knows a lot about this subject (I took into to cognition with him a couple of years ago). Of course in the linked article he is just paraphrasing other people's work, but he does a lot of similar stuff…
Seems like a similar situation to the student info system at my school, which supposedly cost $8 million of our tuition money despite its terrible UI (scrollbars inside scollbars inside scollbars) and inability to store…
free advertising! We have a lot of people who look at the site, and it is incredibly difficult to find drink deals online in one place (at least in Virginia), so people go to the places that are listed on our website…
I'm a just a dev on the site, but here's my point of view. The news has overblown the actual laws concerning the marketing of drink specials. We have actually been in touch with the Virginia ABC since the start to make…
We're not about trying to replace the experience of word-of-mouth drink specials. We just want to make that happen even easier. In larger cities it is difficult to keep track of drink specials for all of the bars…
I agree. Sitting in a 90-degree apartment without power while working on our mobile platform is not the most code-friendly environment. On a different note, establishments will soon (possibly this week) be able to edit…
From the dev team here: all the establishments have a back-end editing page that they can access after we verify that they are the owners of that establishment. They can then update their establishment's specials. Some…
