I don't especially want a drove[sic] hovering over me wherever I go. What if it crashes into me?
This type of fear is common for any type of new technology. I am sure people had similar fear when automobiles started to appear in the streets. They might have said "what if the car hit me while I am walking". Eventually, we will all get used to it and start to live with risks associated with it.
The only suggestion I have is that it would be nice to see the patient's profiles get updated after being funded and treatment was given. We all like to see how our donations are making noticeable difference in people's lives.
I really like what Watsi is doing. They even "eat the credit card processing fees"
This is probably the fee they charge the taxi owners. This way, the added cost of their service is covered by the customers rather than the taxi owners.
One suggestion I have for Refer.ly is that to create JavaScript that automatically convert links to affiliated-links for site owners. This simplifies the process of creating a link on Refer.ly, copy and paste it on a site they own. They can just embed the script and it should do all the work for them.
I was almost certain[1] that Craigslist was working on PadMapper like interface and it was the reason they sued. They should have done the right thing and hire/buy one person company PadMapper.
One thing I missed after canceling pay TV is the way I used to watch news. You just turn on the TV and there is news. So I created http://tiltview.com to gather current news and play it without having to do any work.
Padmapper has been a wonderful service. It is confusing why Craigslist is blocking it unless they (Craigslist) are thinking about coming up with similar user interface soon. Craigslist has been hiring UI designers.
Actual goal of Elon Musk is to send someone to Mars, but since seems far reaching goal for most people and since they might call him crazy, he is sticking with near space for now. Do not be surprise when he starts talking about Mars.
Facebook know exactly how much Instagram is worth. They don't even have to ask the data from Instagram. They can just look at their own Facebook data to see how many of their users use the service. Also, every photo you see on the web has a Facebook Like button. They have all the data they need to make the decision.
Looking at their data, Facebook feared that not acquiring Instagram is a risk to their business, so they rather lose $1 Billion than giving advantage to other social networking sites such as Google+. Mark Elliot Zuckerberg is determined to stay on top.
I remember reading from Instagram blog that they found Gunicorn to be less CPU-intensive:
We use http://gunicorn.org/ as our WSGI server;
we used to use mod_wsgi and Apache, but found
Gunicorn was much easier to configure, and less
CPU-intensive.
I wasn't able to add additional choice. I clicked on "add choice" and entered additional choice but doesn't show up on the poll. Am I doing something wrong?
edit: I think it didn't like when I entered "<40". Maybe it took it as html code. So I added "less than 40"
