Honest question: as a United States internet user, is there any practical reason I need to have a root certificate from the Chinese national Internet authority installed? Corollary…

CloudFlare is probably not a good choice. They recently blocked access to a similar service, Lantern, per the linked WSJ article. "CloudFlare, which offers content-delivery network…

I'm a little slow. Blast you and your Socratic method!

Yes, in the US at least, "a private club for members and their guests" is a common phrase, and would likely apply to a country club. This would fit Digital Ocean's interpretation o…

How about: free users can track budgets for 1 person (themselves), and the data is stored locally. If they want to share it with several people for free, they can install it on the…

Yes, this is what I meant. We want companies to take a chance on people who might not have perfect resumes, or for new ventures that might not work out. This gives people without t…

Congrats on launching this! The site looks nice. Some feedback: 1) $5 for the Premium Account is too cheap. There is nothing that is $5 a month that I want to use for my business. …

Off topic: OP mentions the AdWords Expert, Aaron Weiner of Software Promotions[1], who was finally able to get it all resolved. If you have an AdWords campaign and its underperform…

I'm having trouble getting my head around the pricing. 1x for one task, 2x for unlimited. Can you expound a bit? Specifically, what do you mean by unlimited? Could I schedule you e…

Definitely, I feel bad for them too. Getting fired/laid off sucks . But remember that the opposite scenario, where companies only hire folks when they are sure they have a permanen…

MMM has an excellent guest post on how to get started with aquaponics here: http://www.mrmoneymustache.com/2014/10/20/aquaponics/ The author is selling his "Zero To Hero" design pl…

Not only could you publish them in a loop, until 2011 they were not random at all. Rather, the first 3 digits behaved much like an area code - if you know where someone was born, y…

I don't disagree that a lot of people would stop pirating if there was a legal alternative. However, in my experience, most adults will simply chose an alternative rather than reso…

I think for some segment of the population it will continue forever. But I think most people grow out of piracy eventually. In my experience, adults generally don't steal things, e…

Perhaps a reputation system for recruiters, i.e., an Angie's List for recruiters, could help here? That could be a useful service. Its a tough market to serve because the most peop…

What if the recruiter tells you that Google/FB/etc reviewed your resume and you didn't make the cut? (When in actuality they just don't want to pay the commission) You wouldn't dis…

As I understand it, the problem is this: Joe Random Recruiter can decide one day that he is a recruiter for Google/Twitter/FB/anyone else. He doesn't need or obtain their permissio…

This is great! Thanks for building this! I use my Roku's universal search to do this now, but I can only use it on the device. Having this function in a website is so useful! Sugge…

Thanks for your comment. This makes sense - I would use Watson to determine which photos have humans at all, and then run those through, e.g., my facial recognition software. But W…

I just tried a photo of the Kremlin, and got Cargo Ship (and ironically, Taj Mahal). http://easycaptures.com/fs/uploaded/736/8308577082.jpg

The top 3 may be correct, but they aren't very useful. What could I do with this information? What feature could I build? Also, the other results are very wrong. (i.e., Watson is m…

I've been uploading the easiest photos I can find to the visual recognition demo[1], and its yet to get one right. For example, I searched Google for "photo of girl", and found thi…

I'm an Exchange user with a Nexus 4, and the most recent Android update has really made my life tough. First, they removed the normal email app, forcing me to use Gmail. I really d…
