Sure, it's marketing for the gear, but I also have an unsupported suspicion that GoPro is looking to move into the same space as Red Bull Media House.

Hello from Portland.

Anecdotally, it seems like they are moving out of there and moving in here. (Disclaimer: there's an alarming number of people here that are opposed to that. I'm not one of them.)

Thing to consider, though. There still isn't nearly the concentration of VCs (and thus networks) here as there are there. Depending on where you're at with your project/startup/company, that's got to be a sizable consideration when thinking about moving to/moving from the valley.

Your location/neighborhood is being updated automatically in the background, but you are not automatically checked into venues.

I'm having a hard time understanding this, but comments here and other places make it very apparent that most users use Foursquare in different ways. That makes growth and innovation quite the challenge.

What doesn't make sense to me: at the core, users that (still) use Foursquare use it to check in. From there we vary, but we check in. More importantly, that's the perception around the app. Changing perceptions with an existing brand is difficult. Why move the existing user base to a new app built around checkins (Swarm) and try to rebrand the checkin app (Foursquare) to attract new users and compete with Yelp?

Confused? Me too.

The devil will be in the details. The Apple lease program to me isn't interesting because a) the minimum lease term is 24 months and b) the minimum order is $3,000.

If I have an option to subscribe on 6-12 month terms and upgrade my machine on each release cycle, that'd be really interesting.

As a manager who doesn't spend any time developing, this was the last response I expected to see here. You even stole my coach/player metaphor.

Can you expand on that?

Hey Chris, appreciate your participation here and on SO.

Are you at liberty to provide more insight? I'm really curious to know why some (and not all) accounts were affected.

This bug did not disable all dev accounts. My personal one stayed active, the one tied to work did not. I'd love to hear a technical post mortem from Facebook, but that's pretty unlikely.

And just for clarification, this has been marked as resolved.

Yeah, I am, too.

A friend of mine works for Child Protective Services and gets exposed to some very volatile and unstable people. He gets threats from cases he's assigned, but thankfully nothing too serious or pervasive. Now that he's got a kid on the way, he's a bit more concerned. The only thought I had was to create an alias, but I'm really not sure how someone would go about doing that.

That book might be a great start for him, but if anyone has recommendations, I'm ears.

I always feel sleepy between 2:30 and 3:00pm each day. Unfortunately my job (and my coworker's desire to flood my calendar) don't allow for midday naps.

Trust me, I've tried.

> I really wonder how much sleep people lose worrying about their sleep habits.

I've been having an increasing issue with sleep (not being able to fall asleep, then waking up early and not being able to fall back asleep). I've tried to combat it by being more aware of my habits and patterns, but that's resulting in sleep anxiety. Compounded with the effects of sleep deprivation and I'm easily losing sleep worrying about my sleep habits.

Sample set of 1, though.
