It's not illegal, but it's certainly dishonest.

This is a broad generalization that it's used for illegal purposes. My (very legal) business accepts Bitcoin. I don't have many customers using that form of payment, but chances are I may not have them if I didn't accept it.

Ok, so Coda 2.5, BBEdit, TextExpander and other developer-type apps can't be in the App Store because they can't be sandboxed. Fine, if it's a developer-type tool that has to do things most everyday users aren't going t

I certainly hope their new syncing is better than their Transmit Dropbox implementation. I had to stop using sync it was so bad. I prefer MAS apps because of how easy it is to purchase, install and update. I'm particularly annoyed when

Fragmentation is a real thing, not laziness. Almost 98% of Android users don't run KitKat.

Why would this be limited to Steam? I bought a game on the PSN Store that wasn't even playable. I asked for a refund and didn't get it. As someone who sells a digital product, I completely understand the No Refund policy.

A different article I read said that tips actually went up. The system doesn't eliminate human interaction, it just streamlines certain things. Eliminating paper marketing for drinks and desserts could end up saving them a lot of money

There's a lot to this that rings true. I think the core idea here is that growing slowly, with your customers, is how you get big. In those early days of running a business, spending money on marketing is no way to guarantee new reven

Ugh, if you are in public it's not private. Might as well rename the title to "Please stop live tweeting people's public conversations" if you want to make a real point.

This is very interesting. Half of my customers are international and accepting Bitcoin might increase that number. Definitely going to check this out.

At the end of the audiobook, Card talks at length about the difficulties getting an Ender's Game movie made. One problem was that the studios always wanted to make Ender an older teenager and to give him a love interest. Another was th

Okay, fine. I will pay more up front to watch TV as it happens. But, you can't complain that HBO Go isn't available without a cable subscription anymore.

A bit surprising, but I have no plans to move away from Media Temple, even though I'm not crazy about GoDaddy.

I really don't understand why in the world they would consolidate their menu into an "app launcher" for every single view. This is the opposite of responsive design. Here's some free web design advice, Google: I'm
