Credits like these don't necessarily affect the actual money flowing into social security—social security is just used as a "taxation basis" in this case. That being said, that is a hypothesis—I'd have to look at the precise funding plan.

We're only enabling those startups that already qualify for the R&D tax credit to much more easily, and cheaply, claim it. We've seen accountants charge customers up to 25% of the credit obtained, and we think we can help.

No, unfortunately you can't.

2 things are new:

- Before, you could only offset your corporate income taxes, so you couldn't claim the credit if you weren't profitable (because you wouldn't have corporate income taxes). Now, you can offset social security taxes, which are based on payroll. So more startups can now benefit from this credit.

- Gusto has rolled out an new tool that allows their customers to much more easily claim their R&D tax credit, taking on much of the grunt work.

Google's answer to Facebook Messenger… I'm surprised, I would've expected that they start out in this category by buying WhatsApp.

Interesting idea. Would love to know how you guys will tackle the tl;dr generation issue—how to incentivize people to contribute, etc.

This is definitely a very interesting space. We ARE moving towards bite-sized pieces of information anyways, and you guys seem to be riding on this trend.

Best of luck, and looking forward to how this will turn out!

Thanks guys. Will post the list soon. Stay tuned!

The micro-level counter-examples you provide for macro-level mechanisms simply don't work.

If you consider your first example at a market level, people that are better compensated are more valuable—because they create more value (the discussion is—of course—not around one's value as a human being). The only reason for imperfection in this regard is market friction—which there is a lot of, in every market. But the market value tends very quickly towards the real value if the market is liquid enough.

In a liquid equity market (stock exchanges for example), the price of the stock you buy is its current value. However, you are making a bet on the future value gains of the company. Buying stock for its current value is investing; anything else is speculation.

I wouldn't have suspected the Kindle touch screen to be sensitive enough for this kind of technology.

I also didn't suspect that there was a whole category of Kindle content I had never heard of.

Now I feel stupid.

You're absolutely right! Will add ASAP

I was.

Yes & you assume correctly.

I'll take a look at your account to see what went wrong - send me your email.

Agreed on the 1-way sync. Good idea!

Agreed. We're working on a better menu bar icon. Will have small blue rotating arrows :)

Yep - for now

We are evaluating the feasability of using symlinks (the problem being cross-platform execution).

Thanks kmfrk (a mouthful)

We'll try and make the website more friendly. As ever, juggling with multiple priorities.

We're in SF, haven't seen people throwing themselves at us just yet, but can't wait :)

I'd totally forgotten about that project, used to use it with MacFusion. We'll check out the project again to see which of the services we could integrate (or what code/libs we could use).

Thanks Dave, I'll fix it ASAP

Got it, thanks!

Answer: no - yes - no

Yeah I mean you are sooo right, look at Photo Stream! I mean, Photo Stream is SO last century. Hmmm.

Shouldn't be any problems the file is hosted on S3… Weird. Can you try again and shoot me an email at [email protected] if it still doesn't work?

Mainly, we're file-based and we mirror all file mgmt operations on your computer. So you always have your content with you. And any offline edits (to your SocialFolders Google Docs for example) is applied online as soon as you reconnect.

And we have a business model.

Edit: sorry, didn't get the part about the "Hero + 3 below". Care to explain?

Wait until we get out or geolocated mobile app too!

Actually we have! We're in contact with Jaisen Mathai to integrate the OpenPhoto project ASAP.

Thanks for the feedback we're going to integrate easy folder sharing as soon as humanly can! :)
