IIRC from reading about it, you just tick a checkbox next to all of the friends you'd like to bang; if one of them is using the app and ticks your as well then you're both sent a message. Presumably then a really awkward conversation occurs.

Also I don't think the kind of people who use an app like this are going to be aware of the fact that banging friends leads to less friends and weirder connections.

fox news aims to influence the population, that's their goal. You're making an apples to oranges comparison there.

The article mentions:

>Bitfloor, the largest Bitcoin exchange in the U.S.

And then later says

>the world's largest Bitcoin exchange, MtGox [...] handles more than 80% of all Bitcoin trade

Deceptive title?

I'm running firefox on mint and it worked; it just takes a long time to load. Maybe just give it a minute and/or try reloading.

Your writing style makes most of the people who read you think you're just petty and looking for an opportunity to kick people who are down. Frankly I think the same. This kind of playground attitude rarely occupies the mind of good men.

If you've really been lamenting people's excitement over bitcoins as long as you say you have, I feel sorry for you and maybe you deserve this token of happiness. Fruitless as it is, you make it seem like you don't have much else.

That's along the lines of what I was thinking. Google glass will change porn in the same way that camera phones changed photography. It'll be more accessible to amateurs maybe, but professionals will probably not use this tech considerably.

No doubt. I even made up a little rhyming slogan to that "E.A. SPORTS. IT'S IN THE GAME" bit when I was younger. ("E.A. SUCKS. THEY'RE FRICKIN LAME", if you were curious). Still I feel like since I don't buy their products, I don't have a dog in that fight. They just make malicious or slipshod decisions sometimes and it's ok because it has nothing to do with me.

The same can't be said for companies whose actions literally end or ruin large numbers of lives. It's harder to shrug off big banks taking in billions while ruining the working class as a whole and then somehow also making them pay for the damage; I can't just say "I didn't buy a house", because I still feel for the people who did. Let's not even talk about prison companies and military contract companies. Talk about evil...

Your parent comment said the hipster parts of east Austin, so we're not talking about rundberg and the areas that the cops are swearing they'll clean up. There are parts of the east side that are friendly and cheap. There's a nice pocket of neighborhoods around 51st street that's low on crime and just a long bike ride from downtown.

I don't understand why this is bad, though.

In that case food lion got publicly busted and undoubtedly had to tighten standards. What's the alternative in a system where you can't engage in undercover reporting?

ABC: "Hey food lion. ABC here. Do you guys sell rotten meat?"

Food Lion: "no. no we do not."

ABC: "Mind if we check?"

Food Lion: "Sure, just give me a minute to clean up some things so you're not seeing how we operate day-to-day. I'll schedule your visit."

ABC: "Huh. Everything looks above board"

Food Lion: "Yes, they do look that way today. On your visit. Don't come back without notice."

>Note that it's labeled "terrorism" only in some interest group's "model bill."

This reminds me of an old web design trick. You get the customer specs, plan out exactly what you think will work, and then add something stupid-looking. Like a giant duck by the login button. The duck acts as a decoy for customer complaints; a lot of business people want to point at something and say "change it!", so you give them that. And when they bring it up you smile and say "say no more, I'll have it removed sir".

Likewise, if complaints about a given bill can be pulled or drawn towards language like "terrorism", then the meat of the bill avoids some scrutiny. Hell, an unscrupulous legislator whose constituency opposes the bill could demand the terrorism language be cut and then end up supporting the bill, pleasing both sides of the aisle as it were.

This is just me thinking out loud, though.

Ah ok. I was wondering how you verified the users' identity if the password was compromised. That makes sense, thanks!

So what do you do past this point? I know you can probably rough out how much time it would take to find hash collisions and ask as your users to change their passwords before that amount of time elapses, but past that point, can't you no longer assume that it's the actual user logging in to change their password?

Maybe tell the kid that a lot of people say that the game industry will take a heavy toll on a man's mind and body, so if he really wants to make games then he should follow his heart and pursue that passion relentlessly and shamelessly, but he keep an eye on how healthy his mind and body are.

I think I remember dave chappelle saying in an interview that his father told him you need to name your price early. And when people demand more than that from you, it's time to get out or get away from them. I feel like that's relevant. I bailed on the video game industry recently because I was miserably depressed, sickly and malnourished. But hardship builds character and there's something to be said for a person who doesn't shy away from what they believe they're really passionate about even if other people found it to be horrible.

>So, if the people who PASS are that stupid, what kind of idiot do you have to be to fail?

This doesn't account for the possibility that someone couldn't or didn't attend college.

It's very hard for someone to know they're acting in a creepy or inappropriate way, so people blame the tools they're using very often. Also the founder here probably feels it's a great disadvantage to them to give any credit to okcupid.

Frankly the post confused me at first because when I used okcupid a year or two ago I found it to be easily the best tool available for what it does, and the post claimed there was a consensus that okcupid was terrible.
