If there are external antennae on the unit, just unscrew them and that will effectively disable the wifi radio since it can't attenuate.

In order for any simulation to proceed at a steady state, there must be at least one constant. Everything else can be variable, but in order for time to progress at the same "tick", it has to have something to measure by. That s

Perhaps I can help you "find" some ideas... they come so easily if one is open to them... For example, Uber appears to be the end of the taxi business, but it opens up a whole market to developers. You have a beautiful imbalance n

You should have found an idea before a co-founder. Your co-founder should complement the direction of the business and bring what's missing in your personal skill set. First step now, is to figure our what each of your strengths is&#x2

If this happens, I'm never buying another nVidia card. I will switch to ATI/AMD in a heartbeat. Not because I think Intel is evil, but because it's a customer aggregation play. It's not happening because nVidia will become better under Inte

Partially, it's a business continuity issue. The other part of it is that startups with multiple founders tend to grow faster as the founders feed off each other. If you're the sole founder, and you die. It's over. Nobody else is going to t

Apple wants 30% of your subscription rate if you charge by subscription. I know this b/c I have had the same thing happen, and it's complete bs. This is why you should be publishing an API and having a "3rd party" writing and publishing you

The author of this article should have written another article at the same time that was language agnostic. Memcache as an accelerator for web apps is fantasticalicious, but it's not the best solution. As a loooooong time memcache user, I'v

I am SOOO not angry, just shocked. HeyZap didn't build the games that power them, the developers did. HeyZap, in releasing information such as installs, etc., to unauthenticated API calls is saying "This is HEYZAP's data". It's not. It's th

Wow.. EVEN better than I thought. I can get all the developers sales and stats just following a single, unauthenticated link: http://www.heyzap.com/api/v1/games/Kqh-bubble-shoot { "game": { "checkins_count": 876134, "developer_n

My point was simply to spur the industry on to build an open source implementation that anyone can use and run, a la PhoneGap, Apache or PostgreSQL. I wasn't missing the point. OpenFeint was built on the backs of indie developers, and they

Just admit it's a bad implementation and commit to fix it. Except with Twitter and Instagram, I need to authenticate to get the information about WHERE an action occurred, so at least there's a trail. With your implementation, I can scan al

Okay then, why can I scan all your user data without an account or any authentication? This URL: http://www.heyzap.com/api/v1/users/search?q=mike Allows me to anonymously see numerous (limited by # of results) users records. When I ch

I'm sure the guys at HeyZap are good people with the best of intentions, but the issue is that they can't predict the future. They can't tell you that their servers will be compromised, and all your users will be open game. They can't promi

Exactly, and they sold out and screwed the indies. If you think OpenFeint had issues, just try getting your concerns addressed now that (a) GREE is in Japan, (b) time shifted 13 or so hours ahead of the US, and (c) works in YEN and uses at

Perfect example of why you should roll your own platform libraries, or at least try to use an open source engine that allows you to control the servers. All those users just lost faith in yet another service, and all these guys are doing is

Start it as an LLC. You'll make the Subchapter S adoption for the IRS. It used to be that VC's would not fund an LLC, but that is not the case anymore. You can change your LLC into a C-Corp any time, or you can form an LLC and have it acqui

First, check this out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-monitor#Multi-display_set... You definitely want a good video card, but you can pick up an nVidia 660 or Radeon 6770 for under $200. You'll need that should you ever do anything, l
