Can you explain this a bit further? I'm not a fan of Mitt Romney, but I've never understood the outrage at his tax returns. It was my understanding that the low tax rate was due to 1) donations and 2) the fact that most of his inc

Oh man. I seriously love you. I've been trying to find a fix for this for about two years now. My app sometimes launches from the background after the user enters or leaves a region. It looks for a session token (not a password) in the

I really wonder what it looked like as it happened - if it was instantaneous or if it was gradual, was there a cloud of steam, etc.

For those that have a subscription, The New Yorker did an interesting profile of Makani in the 5/20 issue: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2013/05/20/130520fa_fact_... Apparently Montague was actually seeking funding to create a kite-b

Did you find out who cracked it? And how did you find out? Just curious if you were targeted specifically.

Why is it absurd? The former is completely based on a combination of income and lifestyle, so I can't argue with that. However, the latter is just math. According to the article, if you save 50% and maintain your current lifestyle, assuming

Same thing happened to me. I had no choice but to re-enable it since I didn't want to reinstall Sublime Text itself.

Funny, I owned this domain until July of this year and was planning to build the exact same thing. I was in my "have an idea, get excited, buy the domain, do nothing, let it expire" phase. Glad to see you picked it up and actually built and

John was interviewed on the Joe Rogan podcast on Nov. 27 when he was still on the run: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GmwSgCfn38 . It's worth a listen if you want to hear his side of the story (though it's quite cringeworthy). It starts a

These apps are great. Does anyone know how they plan to make money in the future? Just start charging for the apps once they're ranked #1 in each city?

First of all, how do you filter by "black people" on Twitter? Second, the authors were probably grabbing all tweets that contained certain racial epithets. The word "riot" isn't racist.

The author actually agrees with you to a certain extent: "Well, it is a big deal. And in spite of how effortless these accomplishments may appear, people work harder than you likely realize to make these things happen." He or she isn't deny

I don't believe that's true. I see a "Deactivate" button in my settings. Or is that not the same thing as "deleting"?

Yes, but the default is on. I didn't know that until I saw this post 5 minutes ago. Now I'm thinking of deactivating my Quora account.

This quotation is particularly scary: "It's not the first time we've been targeted as sacrificial victims," Tara wrote. "We were targeted by the entire Buddhist community when I told them to go fuck themselves, for being nihilists, elitists

Using his language, I think he'd say you "don't care about" figuring out the intricacies of e-mail deliverability. It seems like "don't care" was just a poor choice of wording. A better metric would be just to ask what your core competency

I was also wondering why he or she was reluctant to do this. Maybe the decks are already printed? If not, I don't think toning down the name and the marketing would take too much from the essence of the product.
