What about the heart or other critical yet non-redundant organs. In the tech world we try to avoid single points of failure like that.


Which is why the Gallifreyans engineered a backup, I assume.


Asked "will it rain today?" and it answered "I don't know if you will t rain today, that's your life and decisions."

Seems to have parsed "will i..." rather than "will it..." So will I t rain or not, hmm I suppose I'll have to decide.


That's actually a glitch that I am fixing... desperately! Some of the backend APIs are down due to excessive requests, so I am trying to get them back up.


Nice. And great work by the way!


I was wondering the same since the Crown–rump length (CRL) measurement only has two points. One would think the spine should be included for an accurate measurement. However, that must be accounted for already. See also, "3. First-trimester fetal measurements" and "4. Assessment of gestational age" here: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/uog.12342/full


Will application_fee and Stripe Connect be supported?


Love this. I managed to get a pretty stable orbit by using the right angle and velocity (by chance). Highlighted in yellow: http://i.imgur.com/OOaTLMP.png


This is the coolest trajectory found on this thread for now!!!!


It ran for several hours like that and never deviated from the original "circular" path. Unlike the other attempts, which were all much more elliptical. I guess that's kind of how planets would stay in a stable orbit though, having the right distance and speed for their mass.


Interesting point. In a way, whatever you're sharing or sending is leaving your system.


Agreed, and although I initially didn't like the new iOS icon it does make sense to think of it as outbound/upload vs. inbound/download.


I'd think this could be prevented by a) stop giving out order numbers via chat and b) require customers to request replacements (or at least confirm them as you've suggested) by logging into their account.


Why is it called Namecoin and not something like Bitname or Bitdomain?


That's just the name that the original founding coder (vinced from the bitcointalk forums) chose and nobody has wanted or bothered to change it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=6017.msg88356#msg883...

Some chose to refer to it as the dot-bit project as well.

I have never seen any arguments over the name.

namecoin == nmc == dot-bit


Namecoin encompasses more than just .bit names.


There are a lot of people like you even in the US. Cost of living in California is part of the issue. Tech companies could find the talent for less pay if their workforce was located outside the most expensive areas.
