And back-end as well. Their API is so easy to set up and use.

#32I mean god damn stripe has some great front-end engineers.
I recently implemented a site with a feature similar to the spinning-globe in the International section[1]: a video element overlapped by text in an adjacent element. I ran into a vexing problem in some browsers where the the text that intersected the video appeared somewhat degraded, as if it were a lighter weight than what was actually specified. In Firefox, only the text directly overlapping the video was affected…
Usually happens when the text is above a section of the page that's being hardware accelerated. The browser basically rasterizes the text, which changes the aliasing properties.
Either move the text off to a separate sister div, or move the animation to a div with a higher z-index. Or you can set -webkit-font-smoothing: anti-aliased - that will set all of the text to same antialiasing settings as GPU accelerated text.

They are aware of that ;)

#36How much of this decision was based upon regulatory / payments compliance pressure?

#37If Stripe is charging 0.5% of funds paid out to managed accounts, does this mean you’re “double dipping”?

I work at Stripe. We're looking to expand as soon as we can in the 18 countries we support (https://stripe.com/global), but no ETA yet I'm afraid. If you're interested in helping us test a private beta, shoot us a note at connect@stripe.com.

#39Does this require people who want to be paid to sign up for accounts on stripe? Or can the application initiate bank transfers to the seller, on behalf of the buyer or from escrow.
You have two options: you can have sellers link a Stripe account (and we'll do all the downstream work, like collecting their bank account info and verifying their identity). Or you can create a managed account via API, where the seller does everything from within your app and never needs to go to Stripe.
Can you do the following (in this order): 'Provision' a standalone account with just an email address (with zero work by the account holder to-be) > Initiate a charge (to a buyer) that will ultimately be paid out to that standalone account > Have the seller setup their standalone account (so it's then capable of receiving funds)
I'm trying to figure the work flow that has the least toing and froing for both parties.

#40Did you just merge "Connect" and "Marketplaces" so that there is no "Marketplaces" anymore? I saw that stripe.com/marketplaces is a redirect to stripe.com/connect
Yes, they're the one product now. We didn't want divergent products for similar use cases. One feature we think is neat is you can mix-and-match standalone accounts (where the seller uses a regular Stripe account) and managed accounts (where the seller never goes to Stripe).
Is this a change in price for $0.25 per transfer, to 0.5% per transfer? I guess there's additional value-add from tax management.
