The article references a paper from 1980 called "On Understanding Laws, Evolution, and Conservation in the Large-Program Life Cycle". I just skimmed it - incredible insights that continue to be relevant.
from the article..."It won’t take long until there is virtually no time in between a movie release in theaters and a movie release on Netflix." ...not in Canada! Latest we have is from 1996 (not actually of course, but…
This is great! I think it would be useful to provide more details about this. Perhaps include a 360 degree view (rotate); a view of the administrator's interface; sample report/audit report; details about connectivity.

Just a day on the job as far as they were concerned. As with many things you might do, you only realize what you were doing was important (often) long after the fact.
This is a really good article because it clearly lays out possible exploits; journalists could use this to more accurately report about this.
How about sys 64738 (cold start/reboot) - useful in many ways!

Basic information: the time zone - it's not in the article, so how is this information useful?
I take it that both Google and Bing are broken...I get this message.. "um, you broke it. I could blame myself for letting you break it but that would make an ass out of you and me :)" Nice try!
From the article..."Create an alternative", "...Find another way to give people a similar experience." Maybe PhoneGap...balsamiq...plus there are lots of apps for prototyping using an iPad. The article also advises to…

...in other words, understand your customers. Nice 'onboarding' with the call to action to tweet to get rewarded with more info
The "mistake" is at the end... 'There are no breakout apps. There is no WhatsApp or DrawSomething. App.net remains a plaything for developers...' ...it certainly took them long enough to get to it.
