Network jail isn't a 100% for these -- in their testing, they determined that they could connect to the public Comcast networks that Comcast tries to blanket areas with. So even if you don't let it access your own networks, it will look for other ways to phone home.

20m customers * 17% * 4 cents * 'x' transactions per customer = $136,000 * x

I suppose this makes some sense. In a worst case situation, if every customer makes 10-20 transactions per year, and they always round down the maximum possible amount, they would lose millions per year.

I love how clean it is!

One personal use case that I'd love to see supported (when you get your mobile apps implemented) is the ability to add articles via the 'share' shortcuts. I get mailing lists with links, and I don't want to stop to read an article while clearing out my inbox. So if a link looks interesting, I use the 'share' feature to add it to Pocket, and then I'll go back to it later -- without opening my browser.

I tried to do exactly that once. I was offering between $20-$40 per image to make a few coloring pages as a mother's day gift for my wife. Not complex images either -- just basic coloring pages from photos of my wife and child, without backgrounds, for my kids to color in.

I reached out to multiple artists, and got one image back (from a good friend). I gave up on commissioning actual artists, and traced the images myself on a tablet. I imagine someone with the right knowledge of where to find artists and the willingness to wait on their schedule could have done it faster, but I'd have used this service if it had been around.

I imagine asking would likely do the trick. As an escalation, considering we're paying them to hold these people, we could threaten to stop paying them. They're not locking up our detainees out of the goodness of their heart.

I suppose 60 hours might be a good spot for someone who doesn't have a family and isn't interested in having one.

If the author reads this, I'd like to suggest a change in font. At certain scales, the website's font puts emphasis on the cross-bar in the letter 'e', and the letter 'g'. It's incredibly distracting, and only seems to happen at certain scales, as I could 'fix' it by increasing/decreasing the font size.

I'd message this directly, but she doesn't provide a method of contact on the site (reasonable).

Is anyone aware of any good iPad apps for writing notes in shorthand, then converting to text? I currently use an app called Nebo to write notes and journal entries, then convert them to text before uploading into other systems. It works well, and I really appreciate being able to get away from a keyboard, but I'm a much slower writer than typist.

Drive north (mountains on your right) until you get to 900 North, take a right, and drive down until you get to #1259.

As opposed to finding 'Oak Terrace', when a map book has 4 pages of 'Oak St' and its variants (a problem I ran into pre-GPS in Orlando)

Am I understanding correctly that the enterprise license allows offline scanning, but that it's not possible for the standard tiers?

I'm using one of the other commercial offerings for a side project, and the one we went with was largely chosen based on its capacity to work in dead zones in our service area. This looks like an interesting alternative if it's also able to scan when the internet drops out.
