Upgrade to support can be a revenue stream for a small startup but in the long run obviously you can't rely on that. Hardest bit about fremium model is where to draw the line.

Never heard anyone sells offline cheat for money? Care for an example if such a thing ever happened?

What you write is totally different from what article says. That article states that Blizzard also bans people who plays offline/single player games, I'm sure everyone is fine with banning online cheaters.

switch in C syntax is terrible implemented, VB done this one so much better. That's one of the reasons why switch is not that popular in C languages (people tend to do crazy if-then-else stuff) and so popular in VB, most devs tries to use s

Does it? Since when? Do you think 37Signals potential customers feel good about feel-scammy-website? Maybe casual average-joe might like it (Only God knows why) but I don't think their potential clients would

New website looks like Scammy Ebook 2.0, you know those yellowish scam/drity/spam marketing ebook sale websites, somehow that's what it reminded me.

Focusing one specific problem and solving it in the best way possible (this doesn't mean hardcore-awesome-superb-crazy coding) is still a pretty killer thing to have. That's why it's worthy to Google, do your rainy weekend work and sell to

We keep getting this I think every other 2-3 months, I'm not quite sure why such a smart guy fell for the first one :) We keep ignoring those guys.

If you do business (by any means), 99% of the time you need to do stuff you don't like. I don't think he loves spending 1 hour to explain a teacher something step by step. Or write documentation for end users and millions of other small non

Using timing attacks in this case is almost not possible any actual web user would know that, do you think you can accurately analyse that the application's choice of code brunch in 35000 requests successfully? (in a multi-threaded attack)
