That's the idea behind the classic dutch auction, my friend. While I'm also unlikely to patiently pinch a few dollars, I find it mildly interesting.

Aaaand it's a Roslyn member who replies-- just my luck. :) I'll cede this one.
Let's try a concrete example: Jane was hired as a contractor to deliver a business process application in C#. The contract to hire Jane was a work-for-hire contract without the explicit copyright transferring…
Can anyone explain why written code couldn't be considered "a compilation (an original manner of selecting or arranging preexisting works)?" I would think common sense would define most software as an arrangement of…
I would assume that by using "Obama administration" in this context it was meant to be purposefully vague. The Executive Branch is massive. This could be anyone from the Pentagon, CIA, DHS, to many others who just…
This reminds me of, what I was taught to be, the proper method of counting back change at the cash register. http://brightbacon.com/blog/work/how-count-back-change-begin...
I dislike this solution. Draper's concerns mainly reference representation and regulation. Both of which can be achieved by (1) amending the CA and US Constitutions, and (2) delegating more power to the existing…
I see. Do you believe a form of a guaranteed-money-back policy, for the fee, would make it more palatable?
Thanks for looking! I can't argue that 10% is the correct fee - it's more of a starting point. For that fee we guarantee users are promptly paid (net 10 or less, no excuses), absorb all of the usual transaction fees,…
I'd love to drink their milkshake. My friend and I are mid-redesign on a new service marketplace called reBaked. Our innovation is collaboration with many freelancers and paying them proportionally to what they actually…
That's a great question. I would hope no company would voluntarily put themselves in that situation. Biometrics are useful for authentication, but I struggle with a safe use for authorization, per se. Just for the…
As a layer of security this is great addition. But I would like to see an option to also employ a biometric for identification. Passwords and keys are great, but their weakness is that they can be shared.

Heroku will still be my go-to for quick tests and experiments. But for larger projects it would be foolish to not consider PostgresRDS + Docker on AWS. *assuming they both leave beta.

My wife's close friend was only able to purchase a house when she had (1) enough to offer a cash purchase, and (2) the emotional ability to put in an offer sight-unseen. Ugh.
Why must the basic income payout be held constant? I would advocate adjusting the payout on a regular basis. Ensure that the program neither massively hoards assets or runs more than minor deficits.
Aspartame, the artificial sweetener in many diet soda products, is a controversial topic. For many years it was thought that it may cause insulin spikes or even increase the risk of cancer. But studies have shown that…
To a large extent, this is what we currently have... A company needs an OSS feature so they hire one of the devs to work on the software, full-time.
Sounds nearly identical to the Vudu / Ultraviolet model for DVDs.
Interesting. So self-serving Congressional insider-trading on privileged information is kosher, but performing the People's business with information which is now public is not.
False equivalencies, my friend. Also, you seemed to have missed the indiscriminate nature of the intelligence gathering. There were no divisions being targeted-- it was all of us.
