Social commerce engine suggestion please
I'm looking for a social commerce engine to power my new commerce business. Not talking about the typical oscommerce (hack & slash) solution but a more complex & comprehensive solution that allows multiple businesses to run their stores on my marketplace, print shipping labels easily, and process credit cards (paid directly to the small businesses on my site minus my commission).

I've looked at shopify and bigcommerce, they don't quite do what I need. But still looking, if anyone has any suggestions please please post it.

Thanks!
Remember that the main reason PHP has such a broad user base is that it runs with fairly comparatively little setup on every server out there. That doesn't make it good. JavaScript is the only language to run in the browser because years ago someone developed it for that purpose. We could be using Python or Ruby or Brainfuck if there were any way to convince all major browser vendors to support that directly.
This is false. There are so called 'natural monopolies' where one large firm really is more efficient than multiple smaller ones. A popular example is google search. Of course, if that monopoly starts engaging in serious rent seeking behaviour, competition could become profitable again.

Will personal analytics be the next trend in the overall analytics boom?
Each of us as individuals generate so much data on a daily basis, just by the things we do. Some of it is collected and some aren't.

Personal finance, diet, fitness are essentially subsets within personal analytics. Come to think of it, location-based sharing is yet another subset in personal analytics. So is the Facebook wall. And Twitter as well.

Collection of data has been the challenge so far. Mint addressed this challenge in personal finance. Once the data-collection problem is addressed in other subsets, personal analytics has a lot of potential.

What do you guys think?
Polishing it up as a category is a good idea; I might do that tomorrow. But yeah, the point of all this is that you can't set a default browser in iOS.

That is not equivalent: 1/0 returns +Inf, not NaN. In JavaScript, parseInt(NaN, 19) actually returns NaN, as there are no valid digits below radix 19 in the string "NaN". PHP, in fact, has the same behavior that JavaScript does: if you do parseInt or intval on (NaN, 24) you will get 13511 (23 * 24 * 24 + 10 * 24 + 23) in either language.

Unrelated, it seems like intval(1/0, 19) in PHP also returns 0 because 1) intval returns 0 if given an empty string (JavaScript's parseInt returns NaN if given an empty string) and 2) 1/0 seems to return something hilarious... it converts to "", but gettype() on it returns "boolean"... I sadly don't know PHP well enough to understand what it is ;P.
Ways to Protect a Website from Negative SEO
It is now crucial to protect your website from negative SEO, so that your site is not penalized. Link spamming is an excellent example of negative SEO and is now strictly penalized by Google. Being involved in such activity will significantly reduce your rankings and result in a warning from Google.

No one is stopping you from rolling your own browser and taking market share away from the current Big Three.

Or from forking Chrome, since it's open source, and then offering your patch back to the central repo. Not sure if Firefox is open source, but could use that instead, too, if it is.
> Organizations need this to drive innovation

The ability of a note-taking app to drive innovation is highly overrated.
No, no it's not. It's actually part of ECMA-262.

Javascript allows numbers to be a number, NaN or positive/negative infinity. It is well specified within the spec that "Division of a nonzero finite value by a zero results in a signed infinity. The sign is determined by the rule already stated above." [1]

Before you get your knickers in a twist, this is compliant with IEEE 754; although the IEEE define it as an exception.

Good thing it's safe to use pixel-precise layouts and only Android is where you have to worry about variably sized displays.

I really don't get all of the comments applauding (or rather, excusing) the idea that we just keep developing iOS apps to support iPhone vs iPad resolution, when there are a myriad of devices that operate at different resolutions. It feels lazy and it feels like an easy excuse of out not having a different UI mindset from the get-go.

One bit I think is poor design is that parseInt parses all characters until it finds a non numeric one. It can introduce some really subtle bugs.
What does this example have to do with language design? Eval, for instance, introducing lexical bindings is bad language design. This is mereley an API with a poor contract.

in android, one provides four different density-specific resources.

ldpi: low-density screens (~120dpi)
mdpi: medium-density (~160dpi) [baseline]
hdpi: high-density (~240dpi)

there is a nodpi qualifier which is intended for density-independent resources.

there are also screen size qualifiers, small, normal, large, extra large.
Yes. CM has rewritten their modifications for ICS so that they integrate side-by-side with the OS settings. If you didn't see the boot screen or the ROM version, you would just think that you got a whole bunch more features and nice little performance tweaks. They did an amazing job of keeping it stock and adding functionality where it made sense. All without the awkward, disorganized "CMParts" of CM(<9). It's all quite wonderful.

I rarely have a good experience with Cabulous or TaxiMagic in SF. Drivers will drop your pickup in an instant if they see someone hailing a cab on their way to you. I usually go through 3 drivers or so before one actually picks me up.
I only have so much energy after waking to get started with anything creative like project design, so it comes down to managing that. One trick that works is waking up at 5 AM to work on a personal project, then going to work at 9 AM. This might lead to being pretty slow at work once afternoon rolls in though. Another way is to do an early workday, 8 to 4 or 7 to 3 even, then take a 20 minute power nap after work. Even a momentary falling asleep can restore a surprising amount of mental energy.

Because favoring the trains would mean fewer cars on the road, something the city needs.

The trains are faster in many cases (provided you're starting / ending close the line) but they're not cheaper. Making cabs more expensive would change this.

Take a look at what Singapore does http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Road_Pricing to keep cars off the road. It might seem a bit draconian but it's effective.

That was my potential complaint/fix #1: that parseInt could refuse to work if it is passed a string that contains things that aren't valid digits in whatever radix it is working in. I personally believe I agree with you, but this is actually the way these functions work in most languages. In particular, this is the behavior of the various functions in C, such as atoi and strtol. While this isn't then "best of breed" behavior, I don't think it is unreasonable behavior. (Python's int() does not do this, for what it is worth: it gets angry and throws an exception if you pass it something that isn't entirely a number.)
The biggest reason against removing such "won't fix" bugs from a bug db is that it's kept for historical reasons. If a user reports it again, a search of the bug db will indicate that an investigation has been performed and the bug isn't worthy of being fixed. If it'd been deleted, support would waste time duplicating the investigation again.

Uh, that's what the article said, one doesn't have to infer it. Of course if any form of US military technology is easily hackable there is not likely to be much consensus behind the idea of just cancelling the program...

The article sets the stage for easy agreement with the idea that US drone tech needs an overhaul. Even if the first appropriations toward this go to a small subset of current military drones, that gets the ball rolling.
Ah! Nice work - that makes total sense.

Incidentally, PHP doesn't have the concept of positive or negative Infinity, just NaN. However, when I tried:

print inval(1/0);

I got an exception. But point taken :-)

Edit: I might not be correct about positive or negative infinity in PHP... apologies if I have at all mislead anyone!

Kids love the ipod touch and its mostly used as a gaming device. It also serves to stop more price sensitive buyers (particularly parents) from going down the Android route. I think this is going to replace the iPod touch (if it goes well) but will almost certainly be 1024x768 and run iPad apps. Hell its pretty obvious Apple have told Gruber the specs on this one way or another.
Please read my comment below regarding this behavior in PHP. In addition, I will add that 1/0 here is not returning NaN (if you attempt to print it as a string you won't get "NaN"), and intval itself actually has the same behavior as JavaScript. (edit: Oh, I just realized the other comment I replied to was also you. ;P)
Simple, the article was just written, and most of HN's readership is still asleep.

I dint get the moon landings point. They did happen.
The rumoured iPad mini is supposed to have them same 1024x768 resolution as the iPad 1 & 2. Apparently, if you stuck to Apple's developer guidelines and used the same 44x44 point minimum size for both iPhone and iPad, then any touch controls on the new device will be the same size as they would be on the iPhone. So no effort required for developers.

There was an article about it on here the other day, but now it's probably lost in all the other rumours.
I like it. Especially the real time collaboration. So cool.

I would argue that the pricing is actually one thing that has made Github so popular.

Private repositories are a limited resource on Github for most of us due to the pricing. This encourages people to open up their stuff. Small projects that would be otherwise kept under cover are shown to the world, because we feel more comfortable in showing up unfinished code than putting up another $$/month.

And this same applies especially to cloning. If private repositories were free, quite many would probably tinker with the cloned things in private. "Forcing" us to do it in public has made Github what it is.
It's cotton and linen.

You also have to account for any costs incurred between fares. Labor costs during down time, mileage accumulated between dropping off one fare and finding the next one, etc.

Not saying there aren't any inefficiencies or that there isn't established-player protectionism at work, just pointing out that a lot of the cost estimates floating around in this thread are clearly hugely inaccurate.
And Android is fragmented not because of hardware but because of developer APIs/operating system versions.

I feel like the story here is that Mr. Peek needed a harsher critic when he was practicing. It's surprising how rarely we encounter good critics in our lives, everybody is focused on supporting and validating and has little practice at really challenging, reviewing, evaluating.

Exactly, except the surprising part - it's logical enough, because people have an incentive to tell you what they think you want to hear.

The thing that jumped out at me when reading the article was that I would have given them that feedback for a tenth of what they paid to visit Paul Graham.

Firefox is not only open source, as it's developed mostly by the community, in cooperation with a non-profit foundation (Mozilla), whose mission is to keep the Internet open and free for everyone to participate.

Chrome is a closed source browser based on the open source Chromium, and it includes some features that the open version doesn't, like embedded PDF reader or MP3 support.
Apple's real motto isn't think different, it's "think it through". The android handset manufacturers have tried every combination of sizes, technologies, features (3D, mini projectors, built in laser pointers), etc and left it to the buyer to find out if they were a good idea or not. Apple, for better or worse, does the work up front to decide what are the optimum combinations of sizes, shapes, technologies and features and aims its products at the sweet spots.

I have a friend who says he won't buy a tablet until they come out in full A4 size. I think he'll be waiting for years to come, and if one does come out it'll be from a company that made a tablet that size because it's a good size for paper, not because it's a good size for a tablet computer. I don't think that company will be Apple.

Well running around with a watermelon helmet is catchy, isnt it? ;-) Anyways, I do not intend to say that having IIT tagline makes anything different. But I am aware of the quality of students there. (I do not mean that there aren't quality students elsewhere. It's just that this is the environment I am aware about.)

In fact, the bottom line of the article that most important trait you need when you start up is the willingness to fail. If you don't have that, it does not matter what your background is or how smart you are, you aren't going to succeed as an entrepreneur.
Less time sitting 'extends life'
Nobody would use it as it wouldn't have market share. But that's besides the point. The behaviour is actually well defined; the only issue is with parseInt() taking the first character it sees as a number, converting it from it's base to base 10 and then prints the number. The issue being, of course, is that it would have been more sensible to given an exception for non-numeric strings.
This "tax" is internet marketing linkbait. Pure and Simple.

I don't personally have a full-sized tablet or a smartphone. But I have a Playbook (7"), and one of the main ways I use it is lying in bed, on my side, with one hand on top to keep it upright and scroll with. I get the feeling an iPad would be too big for that.

This sounds incredibly harsh. In a world filled with people building "facebook, but for dogs" and the like, it seems very harsh indeed to be slamming some students for trying to build something in this space. I think even just building something like this at the price-point that they have is pretty cool. Even if this doesn't solve all the world's problems for ASL users it might be an evolutionary stepping stone towards something more useful.
