I agree and would add: What do you do when an integer overflow occurs? This would add additional complexity to transferring and handling this knowledge all way up to the application level.

At least 6 of 18 current Fed. Cir. judges have a STEM degree (not counting some of the unspecified B.S. degrees). All or almost all will hire one or several law clerks with an science or engineering degree.

It isn't providing a visual for all credit card issuers, though (eg Diner's Club, JCB). Those cards may still be processed correctly (I don't have any way of verifying), but visually treating a correct input like an invalid input isn't going to help conversion much.

Easily solved by simply adding treatments for more card types, and styling the entire card isn't that much more effort than just displaying an issuer logo.

Where this starts to get really interesting (from a slick + branded perspective) is when you start handling gift cards.
You can get a good idea by reading the discussion over at reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/278twt/panel_sy...
You can look it up. There are 12 seats for judges, all currently filled. Six retired judges are on active senior status and can take as many or as few cases as they would like. They all have Wikipedia biographies.

Notice that patent lawyers gain status and power through the cancerous growth of an irrational, unpredictable, totalitarian patent system shoving its filthy tentacles far beyond the law into areas like software where it does not belong. Therefore the most scientifically literate patent judges are the worst judges on the court, advocating for their own personal interest and dispensing with the law at the cost of innovation and science.

Chief Judge Prost and Judge Dyk are the leaders of the rational restraint faction on the Court, pro-patent but not biased or irrational. They have no extensive science background but often appear to understand science and engineering issues far better than the judges that do because they are unbiased.

- before cops arrived, kid was gone and obviously safe with the parent

The second half of your premise contains two completely unwarranted assumptions. How exactly were the police supposed to know the now-departed child was a) safe and b) with his parent? Recall that the Mom who wrote the piece was driving a vehicle that wasn't registered to her and so therefore didn't match the description on the registered owners' driving licenses. We know with hindsight that she had borrowed her parents' minivan for the trip, but the police would not have been justified in making that inference.
This is neat, and I love the look and feel. The only problem is that it's completely unnecessary and possibly confusing for potential customers. But that's just my opinion. It would be interesting if someone would put this on their own payment page and share the conversion metrics.

There's a few annoyances that threw me off:

1) Like others mentioned in this thread, I first tried to enter credit card details directly on the card. I was initially blind to the text inputs underneath the card. If the card was initially hidden, then faded in to the left/right of the input form that might alleviate this confusion. The problem is the card is so beautiful and neat looking I immediately anchor to the card instead of the input form.

2) When entering an invalid date or credit card number there's no visual feedback. It's very common to be blind to your own input errors, which necessitates clear communication of error state.

3) Even more confusing, I can't tab to the CVC field when the date is invalid. But I can tab to the name field when the credit card number is invalid. This inconsistent behavior initially made me think the form was "broken".
I agreed with your moral position that it's the players right despite the fact that it's wasteful.

Your last sentence is out there though. We're talking about kids in college, no one has put a price on their intelligence yet. Also unnecessary to imply that football players wouldn't be able to do anything useful with their intelligence.

I made a purchase from a site operated by an artist I had been a fan of for 8 years. The order was never fulfilled despite my PayPal account being charged. No one from the site ever returned my messages. I reversed it without issue. If it had been bitcoin, I'd simply have lost the money.

Consumers like knowing they have an element of protection when buying something from a store they can not visit from people they'll never meet. As someone that has worked with ecommerce websites for the past 15 years and currently has $110 worth of bitcoin in my wallet, I don't think that is likely to change anytime soon. Especially not with the current pitch of bitcoin.

The post that spawned this subthread amounts to "Since gittip's main beneficiaries are women I disagree with, gittip should be shut down".

In that context, do you see how your post is stoking the fire?

You didn't indicate what you think gittip is for, just that noirin's use of it is inappropriate. You also said she "deprecates her husband", when she lists 2 facts:

a) he was arrested
b) he is suing her for things she said about it

Plus, he's her ex-husband, and this is a situation where the distinction is important.

So in context, I don't think what you said was mild, I think it's somewhat hostile and inaccurate.
I don't think the issue is that judges don't understand technology. I think the issue is that judges in the Federal Circuit don't understand patents. They've drunk the patent kool-aid, and they aren't listening when the Supreme Court repeatedly informs them that their view of patents is faulty.
Skip forward to the part where she's conversing with her attorney. The attorney sums the situation up as a lapse in judgement. She responds with anger towards the bystander who called her child --- alone in a car --- in to the police. Or reread the section where she interviews Skenazy. The Skenazy section overtly argues that leaving kids alone in parked cars is a negligible risk. No, think you're wrong. I think this is a piece that says, in effect, that people should chill the hell out about leaving four year olds alone in parked cars.
Unless you have anything to actually prove that Shanley, Ashe, whomever else you named in this thread, are "making the whole things worse", please be so kind and keep your hate to yourself.

PS. The only thing the tweets you quoted prove is that Shanley, on top of everything, has a sense of humor.
Looks like good decision would be to have dedicated card for physical stores, restaurants etc. and to disable internet transactions for that card.
Right, "educated", on their false statistics? Like Shanley Kane's claim that men have a much easier time getting a 6 figure job out of college... except that unemployment among male college graduates is 50% higher than women's, and women already earn 60% of all college degrees. Let's ignore all that, tell guys to "shut the fuck up and listen", because the patriarchy is propagating systemic inequality.

Or how about Ashe Dryden's ignorance of the Norwegian Gender Paradox which shows that the more gender equal the opportunity, the less equal the outcome? See Richard Lippa of Fullerton's research, which shows this trend applies worldwide with an enormous sample size (i.e. gender is not a societal construct) and shows that the countries where there are more women in IT are the ones where it is a disproportionately lucrative career. I could also point to her hypocritical call to get people fired for starring the satirical Feminist Software Foundation github repo, a tweet so low even she eventually deleted it.

How about Noirin Plunkett's defamation lawsuit, for which she is soliciting money on Gittip? I'll just quote from the legal documents shall I:

> Plaintiff Michael G. Schwern was a leader for gender equity and a campaigner against sexual misconduct in the open-source software community. Complaint ¶2, Schwern Decl. ¶9. When plaintiff and his ex-wife, defendant Nóirín Plunkett, divorced, defendant — for reasons best known to her — chose to salt the earth by deliberately and maliciously spreading the lie that plaintiff had raped defendant. Complaint ¶¶8, 9, 13-23; Schwern Decl. ¶¶2-4, 8, 9; Exhibits 1-3. The criminal justice system rejected defendant’s allegations.

Yeah, these are the people who are "educating" the wider tech world with their informed opinions. Also, remember, false rape accusations never happen, no matter what Charles McDowell (1985) and Eugene Kanin (1994) found.
given that a lot of the work presented here was not "preliminary work that was adapted", but actually entirely made by him and copy and pasted by you, I think you could at least do him the courtesy of linking his site[1] and his work somewhere in the first sentence instead of a side note in the closing statement.

Adapting his work in my opinion is not copy and pasting his work and adding a line or two in the middle. Making a simple enough script that runs the whole thing from start to finish for example would be a nice adaptation that I am sure he and many other people would appreciate.

Maybe the choice of your wording and the structure of your post is a bit unfortunate. If so, consider editing it.

Been there, done that. Still a lot of checkboxes. The auditor will not likely to really understand the details of your setup. E.g. you can install firewall with all ports open, then document this setup, justified business reasons. And then it is technically enough to complete section 1. Of course it would not anything extra to your security.
Well, that's one interpretation of the history of patent law. Another might note that patentees became enormously more powerful when the CAFC was created, winning a much higher proportion of cases. The metastatic growth of the patent system was a goal of the patent bar.

"To try to bring more uniformity to the judicial interpretations and applications of patent law"

That isn't an improvement when the decisions are consistently bad.

Audi started making this an option in 2008 (2007?) on their A8 line and was followed by Fisker and Toyota on the Prius. i don't think any of them have it as an option any more. It's just not effective enough.

calebm,

It's similar, but Dropr.in doesn't require interactivity on both ends. That is to say, you don't need to coordinate with the recipient of the file to download it at a set time. Also, Dropr.in offers (indeed, enforces) SSL encryption on the browser.
I figured there was some kind of temporal timey whimey thing going on because the three stooges pre-date red Lamborghinis.

Repeated errors have certainly received bug reports of a similar tone. In the context of QA I'd say that saying someone belongs in jail would be seen as humor and sarcasm, so that part doesn't really hold for me.

That said, I really don't see any nuance or indication that you were an ally before someone said "men are rapists," tbh. "Men are rapists" is an extreme statement, but "hateful hypocrites" isn't. Gotcha.

If you're going to "nope out" that easily, maybe you don't have much to offer. I don't know, you just sound like you're lecturing people in absentia. "Admit your mistake!" the principal says. Reading some Foucault might help here.
Ok, so I updated a file (executable), and it gave me a link. I followed the link and couldn't find the file anywhere. All I saw was an advertisement.
I understand where you're coming from here, but to parents who actually do have spines (and seek to grow such spines in their children), it is actually fairly easy to see that the reason the 4-year-old was left in the car was due the fact that he was running both the conversation and the decision-making that occurred throughout the incident.

Which is to say, I can see the GP making the general point that the mom didn't have a "temporary lapse in judgement" as much as a systemic failure to live up to her role as the adult in the parent->child relationship.

Just to be clear, I'm not arguing the mother is negligent for either this or leaving the kid in the car. I'm just saying when you can recognize that your child will throw a tantrum and your only recourse is to begin making concessions to them, you're already at a point where they are raising you more than you are raising them.
Not only is Product Hunt important because of the visibility it provides to new products (and entrepreneurs), but also because it's arguably the most dense collection of high quality discussions about product development decisions. Notably, Ryan and his team have managed to accomplish this without being unnecessarily exclusive.

As a 1st time Dad of a 4 month old I figured I should find this list.

This pdf has it broken down into age groups:

http://www.cdc.gov/injury/wisqars/pdf/10LCID_Unintentional_D...

This site was helpful and included an interesting little side bar:

http://www.cdc.gov/safechild/NAP/overviews/

- Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of injury death overall, and especially for teens.
- For infants, suffocation is the biggest risk of injury death.
- Drowning is the leading cause of injury death for children age 1-4.
Thing is, I'm in Turkey, where you can't actually use debit cards for online transactions. It was my Turkish lira account, the only one attached to the card and the one that was running low anyhow, because it was the end of the month and I hadn't bother exchanging foreign currency for lira recently. There was no way to access the other accounts via the card at an ATM.

A conversation with a banker revealed that the common trick here is for thieves to attach cameras to ATMs to grab details, and then build mimic cards to drain accounts. The bank was pretty cooperative in processing my claim, and said they should have the money back to me in about 45-180 days. So, that's kinda lucky.

I'm going to be extra observant at ATMs from now on though.
> I would feel bad sending back an answer that it's not my bug, and then saying they owe me a few hundred dollars.

Why? If I take my laptop into the shop, and after 2 hours of work they determine it's because I spilled coffee into the USB ports, don't you think they're going to charge me for the evaluation, let alone the repair?

There are types of business that can offer free support, even of problems not related to their product. A 1-person freelancer is not that type of business.

There's lots of great suggestions in this thread for getting your time paid for. These have the dual advantages of earning you more money, and ensuring you get better, more savvy customers. This is because the ones who understand the value of support and care about long-term success instead of penny-pinching will self-select themselves as part of your contract negotiation process.
Its a speculators market so applying logic is a fools errand. None the less, if you buy IBM you're trading a very liquid $185 cash for a very liquid share with tradition of paying a quarterly dividend around $1. Thats an equivalent interest rate "yield" of 2.40% or so. My local credit union is only paying 1.44% on a similar long term-ish investment. Its not completely worthless, but its being milked like a cash cow not treated like a tech company. The PE ratio is like "ten" compared to googles "thirty" or facebook which off the top of my head is like "a hundred".

Comparing the yield of this dead horse to a company that actually matters like Caterpillar or XOM its about the same, around 2.5%.

Of course .gov guarantees return of my capital from my credit union, but who knows what'll happen in the market WRT IBM, so it should return a bit more. CAT and XOM are actually worth something as a going concern. IBM, well...

So.. rate of return below real world inflation rate, no prospects for growth, no one in the market expects future growth (not paying a high price now for earnings later). Doomed. Maybe google or apple will buy them for pennies on the dollar? IBM has patents...
Well police investigations aren't free to the taxpayer.

The digital-age obituary
Not really. Our knowledge takes shape way, way before we hit 30 in every area you can think of. Some modular brain systems actually come to full form in the few first years, some in the few months (vision).

I would argue that the data we exposed to is not only small, but actually sparse.
I was aware of this when posting. I am very thankful for that information and everyone who contributed to KVM, KVM-KMOD and QEMU repositories. I have moved the credit to the top of article.

This was more as a reference and a quick guide (also because I couldn't achieve Mavericks via his research and therefore I have added it here).

Thanks anyway.
I see this a lot from small- and medium-sized business owners I interact with from time to time. They want CS graduates who can walk in the door and design and implement an entire system using a very specific set of (often closed-source, vendor-specific) tools with zero training. And they'd ideally like to pay no more than $40k/yr because, ya know, this person just got out of college!

CS knowledge is, I think, valued highly (or at least valued) in the tech sector itself, but once you leave the sphere of companies that make tech products for tech people, or if you happen to be outside one of the major software hubs, the atmosphere can become rather absurd. And who gets blamed by these business owners and managers? The CS programs, because they are clearly just a bunch of ivory tower jackasses who don't want people to have any useful knowledge. Ever. Ugh.
I don't think they're that scrutinous about who joins. You pay the $100 deposit (in BTC), and you're in.
Looks great. Few notes:

1) On the already crowded payment form, I don't want to devote a hell of a lot of space to something that is otherwise inconsequential (a picture of a credit card)

2) Is it a great idea to broadcast someone's card numbers so clearly? The graphic is so obviously a credit card, it would be easy for any onlooker to spot and steal.

Really, this seems like aesthetics for aesthetics' sake, which I traditionally shy from, but I always like seeing people take a swing at something.

> Last I heard we are still free to start our own farms and live off of those, but it seems people rather like having things like cars, power, the Internet and other luxuries of the past few decades. And most people living in "poverty", as you say, have all of the above.

This is an enormously common fallacy. There are certain things that have their costs driven down very easily by technological innovation (consumer goods, electronics, transport, etc) and certain things that are very resistant, at least on short and medium time scales (healthcare, education, land for obvious reasons). Being increasingly able to afford things like Internet and cars may make it seem like someone CAN'T be "poor" because rich people 40 years ago didn't have it, but that's a lot less significant than their relative ability to access the (much more important) things in the second category. (Inasmuch as Maslow's pyramid is a good heuristic for priorities, you can think of these as things further down the pyramid).

This phenomenon is clearly common-sense after a moment's thought, but I found an article that goes into this phenomenon in more detail:

This was my experience with IBM hardware infrastructure as well. Just replace 'copy jar files' with everything from 'power on server' to 'create LUN'.

After a major, unexpected power outage we had to stand around waiting for a technician to be dispatched and drive over to:

1.) Flip the power switch.

2.) Say 'Looks good.'

3.) Leave.

(I was told in dead serious terms that I'd be dismissed for powering up the box myself.)
