It is fine, if it refreshes the current context (in Gmail inbox, for example).

In Gmail, the search bar next to it searches Gmail by default, so that would be consistent and expected. There will be much resistance if that bar starts searching other things.

As always, thank you for your detailed comments. The question I was trying to get out was: Is there a way to help curb the frivolous lawsuits so prevalent in the US today? You mentioned special statutes to allow fee recovery in some cases. Do these rules actually help in the case of Joe Blow being sued by Megacorp?

For myself, I would almost certainly rollover at the first whiff of a lawsuit against me personally because I have neither the time nor money to fight it. BigCorp vs BigCorp is far less interesting to me than MegaCorp vs LittleGuy, because I certainly qualify as LittleGuy.

Cool idea!

Maybe the site could use its users as "captcha" solvers, in the form of rating/tagging content.

Ie the site pops up a random picture of another user occasionally, which the user must rate according to several dimensions ("photo quality", "objective attractiveness", "subjective attractiveness", "fashion impressiveness", "charisma", etc).

Or the site could pop up another user's profile and ask the user to rate it on interestingness, spelling & grammar, charmingness, etc.

I'm more impressed by people that spend $100k on a car and then don't know how to take care of it.

Do you know what happens when an ICE engine is left to sit for months? First the oil runs out to the pain and slowly evaporates. The cylinders might suffer some sticktion and possibly rust. And you've probably got small animals that have made a home in your engine block. The rubber in the tires will have deformed and even if you get it running it will be a very bumpy ride to the tire shop. Also the gas tank absorbs water if you live in a humid region like Florida.

All of this is covered in the manual of every car I've ever owned. Drive it 5 minutes, at least, every few weeks to keep the lubricants lubricating or you end up with a very expensive rebuild.
Immad's already weighed in on this but as the other Clickpass co-founder I also support this decision.

OAuth has definitely trumped OpenID as a protocol but turning off Clickpass shouldn't be seen as a reflection on either protocol and is simply removing a dependency on unsupported and remotely hosted code.

Immad did an incredible job of writing code that has run and run however since acquisition there is minimal and subsequently no support behind the codebase.

I would like to thank both PG and the users of Clickpass here who have been such ardent supporters of it over the years. We tried hard to make it attractive to developers and we received a lot of support for that - thank you.

This is an interesting approach but I wouldn't put all my eggs in that particular basket.
First, I see using the word "chicks" as insanely offensive. That's what probably would get you marked as obnoxious, not the looks.

The second thing, getting marked as obnoxious means you're routinely messaging the wrong people. The only change I'd consider to combat this is the site warning you, that the kind of people you're messaging are obviously not that into it, along with any hints it could mine from the data.

Also, I consider your fear misguided. Trust me, the most common reasons for rejection of men by women on dating sites are not looks. The other way around, though...
All those posts have been wrong though. Just because it rockets on HN doesn't mean it's true.

My main objective with Sublime is to master the keyboard shortcuts. Stuff like (on the PC) Ctrl+D to select the current word, and repeat for next occurrences. This starts up a multiple-selection that you can just type and all selected occurrences are replaced.

There's also
20minutemail.com - random address, allows reply, forward and download of message

yopmail.com - any address (like Mailanator) and allows download of attachments directly

There are a ton of these available, just depends on your specific needs. I regularly use them for signing up to those sites that need sign-up before access to a file/article/image (e.g. forums).

I've also used them in testing web apps, using Selenium to grab the email address and registering a user and then going back to check the welcome email had arrived.
Are you sure they're Google Ads? If you followed a link from the search results, and that link had ads from another search network, that other network would've associated you with that search term.

>"I mean it’s not like code and sport go well together."

While I think it's a stretch to assume programmers don't like sports, I have worked in in a couple of developer shops as a non-programmer. If I had to pick between programmer stereotypes mostly shattered or programmer stereotypes mostly re-enforced, it's definitely the latter.

But that's okay. I like the company.

Does anyone interested in this editor know how to associate file types with this app in bulk, rather than one by one in the "Open With ..." dialog?

Any other editor I have, informs the OS, and a:

/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -domain local -domain system -domain user

(or the equivalent for your particular version of OS X) will rebuild all those correctly. Sublime Text never appears in the file associations after a rebuild.

I wish you could tell it to not load some *.py files (they aren't part of the plugin and are included so I can use additional functionality).

The plugin's unload_handler() isn't run when quitting the app, which isn't very nice. @atexit.register also didn't work.

The plugin also won't reload when the source is changed. At least when there is a symlink in the Packages directory pointing to the plugin folder.

But the editor seems nice and will be a good editor after some UX and API work.

No, they aren't sold new anywhere.

HP stopped producing the Touchpad about 3 months after it was released due to extremely poor sales. Why did it flop? I think it's because of a few things, first a very late entry to the market, and they wanted $499 for a 16GB and $599 for a 32GB. They were insane to charge iPad prices for the Touchpad especially when coming from the inferior position of very small app catalog, and an unknown, buggy OS.

"Dotcom had been held in custody since an anti-terrorist police squad raided his Coatesville mansion last month..."

Doesn't anyone find it odd that the entertainment industry can manipulate governments into sending these specialized teams (anti-terrorist in New Zealand, SWAT in the US)? What are they telling these people? Are you telling me that if the police had sent over one or two squad cars with a couple of cops that Dotcom would have escaped?

How much does an operation like this cost? I can't believe it's that cheap.
Problems with this:

1) Only done on 16 girls. Sample size is small.
2) More than 30 years old. Changing mores.
3) Women are likely to fear random men who approach them, the reverse is not true. This experiment should have been done differently: they should have achieved some rapport/comfort with the mark and created some sexual tension, and then asked for sex. My guess is that at least a few of the women would have responded favorably in that case.
Presumably this is to avoid the need for Flash for video streaming.

I believe the two main advantages of Flash over the Video tag are that Flash can encrypt, and flash can do adaptive rate streaming - and adaptive rate streaming is also going through the standards process at the moment.

I don't see why that would stop them for trying. For instance, search and Google are interchangeable in many discussions. ;)

The above is a bit tongue in cheek. That said, I see where grandparent is coming from. Chrome is Google's web-browser, and these Google+ icons are very often near the top of your browser. I can see how they could come to the conclusion that this could save some confusion. Say, friend calls to help and says "Click the plus sign at the top of your browser"...

Now, I don't think it's a good (or bad) decision. But the fact that I cannot click the logotypes is annoying me to no end.

without going back to read the privacy policy again, I believe a big difference is that normal search logs are anonymized after a certain amount of time, whereas search history is kept as long as it's enabled, I assume.

Sometimes I get the feeling in all the discussions around google's new privacy policy that I'm one of the few people around here that bothered to actually read it :)
I don't know how that works in the US, but here in the Sweden becoming a sole proprietor can be somewhat of a hassle. You have to sign forms, talk to the "IRS", pay a certain amount of preliminary taxes each month, do book-keeping, keep track of inbound/outbound VAT on invoices, etc. It doesn't deter someone who really wants to be an entrepreneur, but it does stop people who would just like to do some casual work on the side for a few bucks here and there.

I have quite a few business ideas involving paying the crowd to do stuff, but the legal issue is a barrier.

>“Quora is this place that gives you access to people who are interested in particular topics and an audience for things you want to share,”

How is this any different from one million other internet forum-type places? Like, say, Hacker News or Reddit or Stack Exchange or Seeking Alpha? Only, when I venture into smaller, more specific communities, I can escape some noise(as opposed to Youtube comments).

I never understood how Quora thought they'd overcome this problem, or why everyone (read: Techcrunch) was making such a big deal about what Quora was doing. I suppose it was really exciting for the SV echo chamber, but I don't find it to be a spectacular resource. And the fact that there are now a bunch of hoops to jump through to even ask a question?

I don't know. But, I'm open to being surprised.

I'm not really complaining, though, I'm sure most of the stuff that's not available is not available for a reason: if it were compiled for ARMv6, it'd probably run like a dog, and I wouldn't derive much pleasure from it anyway.
