There's a car in my town that has a mix of B's and 8's. Almost impossible to tell which is which.

I don't think the law was as much of a concern as prominent people's reputations.

If it had Amazon Prime, it would be a perfect match for me. Until then, Roku.

So a step further, you could add a user input feature and let people track any word they want.
speedyrev | 12 years ago | on: Show HN: Real-time file sharing site
I don't know that the site is NSFW, but clicking the links on the site is not advised at work.

SPOILER:
A year from now we find out this is an NSA black ops project.

Not only do they have face models. But they have immense details about those faces. Location, relationship connections, product endorsements, work and school connections...
After the last few revelations about the NSA that have come out. I think you should assume that it is all being used.

Because it gives him positive press. Plain and simple.
speedyrev | 12 years ago | on: Show HN: I suck at remembering names, so I built an app to help
How about a text field that allows you to write something about them.
"Dude with weird hair, works for Widgets Inc. Said he was divorced but had a daughter in college."
Then make that info available when he calls me.

This is technology fixing a problem that doesn't exist.

If your data, encrypted or not, travels through the US or any of it's allies, don't you think they already have access if they want it.
Privacy is an illusion.

This as a background for an audio EQ would be pretty awesome. Have the different frequencies pulsing through the particles :D

Well to continue the metaphor, I guess I practice abstinence.
speedyrev | 12 years ago | on: Apple’s Touch ID: A 500ppi Fingerprint Sensor Built Into iPhone 5S Home Button
I had the Atrix with the fingerprint sensor. The thing that I liked was being able to unlock the phone with one hand. But, the sensor was on the top back center, right where your index finger naturally landed. It was really nice when your hands were full.

Lots of hate for a keyboard that is getting reviewed by people based on pictures.
Has anybody reviewed it after actually getting their hands on one?
speedyrev | 12 years ago | on: Why You’ve Never Read “I Have A Dream”
Also keep in mind that the last portion starting with "I have a dream..." and following was all improvised. The original draft didn't include those words.

I don't have a lot of respect for any coder who is afraid of leaving the pretty GUI of Windows. They would rather fragment the project than get their hands dirty.
