The company I work for, Bump (http://bu.mp/company/), pays for Riak Enterprise. I am not going to disclose our particular pricing, though, except to say that this isn't a commodity. Every deal is going to be different, cover different things, so it's hard to give guidance on the subject.

What I will say, however, is that it has been worth it. Whenever we need Basho's support, they are on the line and ready to help us. Their staff has been excellent to us and I couldn't be happier about our relationship with those folks.

Whether it is sitting down and talking to them about some what-if scenarios, discussing optimizing our usage, or even reviewing configuration files before we spin up a new cluster -- they've been on the ball. We recently renewed our contract for another year and I can't imagine us not doing that as long as we still use Riak.
That is rubbish!

imdbapi.com could refer to, like he said in his response, literally thousands of different acronyms, such as the new website title: "Integration Manager Design Baseline Automated Physical Inventory" - amusing ;)

Who's to say it isn't for an Instant Messaging Database API service?

"The disclaimer you have added doesn’t change this result. First, ordinary consumers don’t read fine print and so the potential for confusion is unaffected. Second, even a prominent disclaimer doesn’t allow you to adopt a competing product’s name as your own."

This is also rubbish as he clearly isn't adopting a competing products name as his own.

IANAL but I think so long as he isn't using the IMDB name or logo, they haven't got a leg to stand on. Having their trademark somewhere within the domain name is not enough.
Saying "I" a lot is usually a sign of submissiveness/inferiority/deference anyway.
To switch to a branch you go

hg update branchname

If you have uncommited changes it will refuse. You can 'shelve' the changes or force the update to the branch (with a flag on the command line).

I've had my tech guy speed things up. Got off shared hosting, on a VPS and should have things sped up all around. Still need to cut all the javascript in the current theme, but that's another project for another day.
Incredibly deceptive title. It's a UX review. What did you expect Samsung to do, sit around and wait for customers to complain or be proactive in ensuring a high quality UX? What exactly is wrong with using the market leader to establish how great your UX is in your competing product?
how's that skeumorphic?

> Eating food from a tube could also give us a lot more free time but we don't do it because it is not an enjoyable experience.

Even if you thoroughly enjoy driving, a driverless car would afford other emotional highs from:

- Allowing you to get an extra [insert unit of time] of sleep
- A bit of hanky-panky (even the one-man party variety)
- Eating a meal (preferably not from a tube)
- Playing games (a driving simulator if so inclined)
- Reading HN

I love driving as well but I can see the benefits that'll come from automated cars will easily outweigh the negatives. One of those positives might be a more energised, happier workforce.

IMO nothing illegal or underhand here. Most products do this. If I'm not mistaken many products release detailed descriptions to competitors under some kind of NDA too.
Agreed; it doesn’t feel like instructions to copy, rather recommendations for how the user experience can be improved. I wish the original[1] was the one on the front page right now.

IANAL but you are right from the basic premise:

“If a Law Isn't Public, It Isn't a Law”—Justice Stephen Breyer

But I believe the distinction here is that just because the law is public, that doesn't mean that you can call up anyone who has a copy of the law (including the organization who wrote the law) and say "Hey, give me a copy of the law."

So orgs like Malamud's get copies of the law and provide them freely to all:

Actually just always using "golang" works extremely well.

Unfortunately this probably hurts the "brand", I think, because I find myself calling it "golang" sometimes even when I'm talking about it aloud to someone else.
"Starbucks isn't willing to pay much more than what their current processing fees"

Let us not forget that there may be a dichotomy in processing fees of credit cards at Starbucks between register-based transactions and digital/mobile-based Starbucks card reloads. Square doesn't have to beat the former to be competitive - only the latter, because it seems that Square will be on track to replace the current smartphone scanners at Starbucks registers.

Let us also not ignore that this is Starbucks offloading liability - when dealing with payments on a massive scale, one has to deal with a variety of frauds that may occur. With the current Starbucks card reloads before the point of sale, they may be starting to encounter fraud based on the volume of sales they encounter. However, Square has essentially specialized in managing this type of fraud. Hence, the Square partnership could simply be an acknowledgement that the Starbucks card payment system has become mainstream enough that it justifies a dedicated security division, whether it be internal or external, and that Starbucks opted for external Square.
I back everything up with facts amigo. They shorted it $2.4B.

Nitpick: no "Bundesregierung" (Government) but "Bundestag" (House of representatives).
My ebook (on a non-technical topic) outsells the (much more nicely laid out) paper edition by 4:1 or 5:1.

The end is near for paper.
I don't know how the app works (it might already do some of this), but it would be nice if it would vibrate when you get charged and perhaps allow configuring it for a list of default purchases such that it vibrates twice if it is for a different than usual amount so you don't have to look at it.
A typical UX review would be evaluating an interface on its own merits, not by comparing and contrasting everything to the way a competitor implements it (and recommending that everything be changed to look and behave more like the competitor).
I remember implementing this in ask! Fun times.

it's very funny how this sort of stuff comes back at opportune times to magically solve really hard problems for you with a single pass. Sort of like having Knuth on your bookshelf.
The only potential problem with this document (from a legal perspective) is that it only references the iPhone.

Samsung should have shown other devices as well.
Thanks for clarifying that, I saw the original comment and wondered the same thing myself.
Ask Dalton Caldwell: why not a wikipedia-like business model for app.net?
Asked with a general and open sense: why the wikipedia's business model is an isolated case (is it?), why don't 'we' democratized it for product which content is mostly made by the users like twitter (and facebook)? It might do the job: hackers could have great APIs, big startups could become huge sponsors, casual users would not have to pay, and of course, there could be no ads. You may say "because wikipedia is a foundation". But companies can do that too no? The HumbleBundle team do something very similar already...
The app has receipts and notifies you of stuff happening.
If your app was well-designed, you have to handle the double status bar on iPhone anyway. This change is pretty much the same as the double status bar.

So: well-designed app might not need to do anything at all.
The cashier is just going to look at me totally lost. Even in Silicon Valley, maybe one in 100 customers is going to use Square.

I don't see the value for Starbucks customers either.
Pick a better acronym if you want to have a shot at winning.
This actually looks like good competitive analysis more than anything, IMHO. In some sense I expect most companies to do something similar. I'd hope that Ford walks through Toyota, BMW, Honda cars with a fine tooth comb understanding all of design trade-offs and places where they can improve.

I want companies to be comfortable looking at and improving over their competitors, rather than being in constant fear of being sued.
Forrester report urges HTML5 adoption, says most browsers can support it
He does not mean it as a comment towards archive.org, he means information in general. With increasing threats to free speech and censorship, he suggests that the information that's not popular - or, censored/manipulated/bubbled by mass media/governments/etc. - can only survive through decentralized means of storage and distribution, like BitTorrent.

In essence, he argues that BitTorrent can be a fantastic way of digital preservation, which is the goal of archive.org, and I suspect he uses the word 'pirated' interchangeably with 'torrented', since that's what BitTorrent is commonly associated with.

Did You Know? While a natural suntan helps to protect you from sunburn, it does not protect you from further damage from the sun's ultraviolet rays. "Artificial" tans-those acquired from topical self-tanning creams-are equally unprotective. While the creams are safe for use, the American Academy of Dermatology recommends applying them at least one night before you plan to lie outside in the sun, and using sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun.
You what? I worked on a competitor to CDE. We existed first and were actually compact and fast. When CDE was announced it put a serious dent in our business, but then was vapourware for quite a while so our sales returned. And once available was bloated, ugly and slow.

We also had a side business in the graphical toolkit CDE used (Motif). Basically we took the Motif from OSF, fixed bugs and made a whole host of similar improvements and then sold and supported the result.

I don't think it wrecks legibility, since it's a C idiom. People reasonably experienced in C will read "for (;;)" as an infinite loop just as well as "while(1)". That said, it might be a little confusing for beginners (or others who don't use C very regularly).
"Square will process Starbucks U.S. credit and debit card transactions":

Wikipedia says that Starbucks has $11.7 billion in revenue every year. I would assume that a majority of that revenue is through a card. I am not familiar with Square's revenue but I feel that this will at least double their transactions. Am I correct?

What about Craigslist's model makes it necessary for it to be proprietary?

In Germany it is not allowed to fire someone because you found someone cheaper and can be challenged in court.
I think that’s an interesting moral question – but I also think it shouldn’t matter legally.

That said, I can get behind legal protections for consumers (not companies) to not be deceived. I’m not sure that’s the case here, though, and at any rate, Samsung’s phones now look sufficiently different as to not be confused with any Apple products.
Facts aren't protected by copyright, and PadMapper only distributes facts (# of bedrooms, location and price). It doesn't copy the CL post title, description or photos which would be protected. I don't think there's any copyright infringement to serve a DMCA request against, but I'm no lawyer.
Fortunately for Starbucks, people are willing to pay much more for their cup of coffee than it costs them to make.

One interesting problem with this deal is that it will call attention to just how much money Square users really are spending at Starbucks.

Imagine if most or all of the charges on your Visa bill were from Starbucks, such that you couldn't help but see the total staring you in the face every month. That's the position a Square user will find himself/herself in, at least until more merchants come on board.
Wow, nice.

card present business (like your local coffee shop) pays less than 2% and their monthly fees are also lower. 2.75% range is usually for online businesses (card not present).
My suggestion was:

I Must Design Better API
Most of the real estate listings are already coming through such services. They're no longer permissible under Craigslist's current TOS as you must grant CL an exclusive license to your posting.
You don't mention they also charge $0.27 per transaction. If you do the math that means that intuit and square both cost almost exactly the same for a $25 transaction (square is a little ahead because they also don't charge monthly fees).

So for transactions less than $25 square comes out ahead. I can think of plenty of restaurants that are primarily lunch driven for whom square would make sense (not to mention coffee shops).

Acknowledging that social justice is inherently interesting does not imply that only social justice is interesting or that it is the most interesting. As such, the claim does not lead to 'nothing but those stories'. For that, additional premises are needed, none of which were posited.

Beyond that- I am not sure of the limitation of light.

Consider this- There is a lake which is 50 meters wide but 500 km long. You want to cross the lake. You are at the middle of one side of the lake. Now to cross you need to travel aproximately 500km if you follow the bank.

Now if your maximum speed is 6 km per hour yo need more than 80 hours.

Now you get a great idea to create a bridge on the lake- Time to cross is reduced to a minute or so. Now what you are doing is instead of walking one dimension following the bank you just bridged the two places using second dimension.

I do not know if it is possible to create a bridge among two places using another dimension or not- but it is alwaws a possibility and you can do it by travelling less than speed of light.
Citation? https://squareup.com says the fee is 2.75%.
Bittorrent and other decentralized systems are not good choices for unpopular data. As another commenter pointed out unpopular torrents will only be seeded by archive.org.
Once square has linked your credit card is linked with your phone number and email, every time you make a transaction with that card, you get a text message/email receipt.
It's very rare for a brick and motar merchant to pay more than 2% processing fee. 2.75% is the high end for ecommerce accounts.
I doubt it. If anyone has, I have yet to experience it or hear about it.

The root causes are rather obvious:

1. Management treat it as a cost centre and try to minimize the cost of running it.

2. Working in a call centre sucks. (I know I did phone support at Toshiba for over 12 months) You feel like a battery hen and the incentives focus on the number of completed calls.

3. The staff in most call centres are way too inexperienced to provide satisfactory assistance.

Why would they look at you lost? If Starbucks is implementing this they will have to train their staff in how to use it and paying by saying your name is one of the best features of the product. It will be great for Starbucks as I assume it is a much quicker way to checkout than processing a credit card and, at least where I'm from, Starbucks always has long lines.
My guess is that about 129 megs of those are tax laws.

How to critique a tech story without being arrogant and exclusionary
Yes, I also learned a lot about "trade dress" from this suit. It does make sense to me that intentionally making a device so similar that it confuses consumers shouldn't be allowed. It's a different issue than SW patents, and seems more clearly wrong to me.
One reason (playing devil's advocate here) might be to protect people's privacy. Maybe I don't like the clientele at Padmapper or Ebay for whatever reason, and I'd prefer my listings to stay on the site I posted them.

The stars are crucial: if we used numbers instead it would fail (some countries use 1 for best, some 5 for best).
The only sensible choice would be to mark items as deleted for a while, say a week or two and then delete them for real. The site may even notify the user before the permanent deletion, so he/she can think twice about what to get rid of or not.

Also, this is not about whether someone steals your content but about it being your content. You should be able to do whatever you want to your content and that includes deletion.
