PowerFolder doesn't limit the amount of shared data, because it directly works between computers - efficient and secure. Make your files always available - even when you are offline - by creating an online copy.

PowerFolder Pro Home includes 5 gigabytes of online space - that's enough for thousands of photos or music files. If you require more you can upgrade to a larger package - or access your files directly via PowerFolder client without any size limits.
Backup your data - Setup and forget
Continuously backup your own files online and securely access them via web when you need them. PowerFolder can also directly backup to another computer. 5 gigabytes of online backup space are included in each Home license, and no limitations on your own computers.

The Archivist - Save and Export Twitter Searches Before They Go Away
by Spone
If you have used Twitter search before, you may notice that you can only go back a certain amount of time and/or number of tweets for a given search. In fact, if you read the Twitter search documentation, you'll note that the folks from Twitter say, "We also restrict the size of the search index by placing a date limit on the updates we allow you to search. This limit is currently around a month but is dynamic and subject to shrink as the number of tweets per day continues to grow."

Snakes on the Web
by karlcow

The big problem, though — the elephant in the room — is that gateways suck, too. Gateways aren’t APIs. There’s a limit — and it’s a low one — to the level of inter-op you can obtain when the only interface you have is a gateway. Even if we improve WSGI — and we should — it’ll only take us so far.

Photoshop High Key Glow Effect Tutorial
by mozkart
(via)
In this Photoshop tutorial, we'll learn how to create a high key glow effect, which is a fancy way of saying we'll be applying a glow only to the highlights in an image. This effect works especially well with wedding portraits since it's great for adding a romantic, magical look to your photos, and wedding portraits usually contain lots of bright white areas to work with. We'll see how to easily select just the highlights in an image using Photoshop's Color Range command, then we'll copy the highlights to their own layer and create the glow effect using a blur filter and one of Photoshop's layer blend modes designed for lightening images. Finally, we'll combine layers into a layer group and use a layer mask to limit the areas where the glow effect is visibile. It may sound like a lot of work, but once you know how to do it, the entire effect can be completed in just a few minutes! I'm using Photoshop CS4 here, but any recent version of Photoshop will work.
Joseph's Blog - RabbitMQ, AMQP gem, and EventMachine
by greut
RabbitMQ 1.6 has an option to set a pre-fetch limit. So we simply set the pre-fetch limit to 1, and our EventMachine loop runs nice and fast now. You'll want to tweak your pre-fetch limit depending on how long it takes to process each message. If you can churn through a hundred messages a second, you probably won't even notice this problem and the prefetching will help you, but if it takes you a few seconds (or minutes) per message, you'll wonder why things aren't popped off the queue for several minutes (or hours).

Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence
by borsky
(SENS)- A practical way to cure human aging - Website of Dr. Aubrey de Grey
"SENS Foundation was founded to develop, promote and ensure widespread access to regenerative medicine solutions to the disabilities and diseases of aging. We shall be focusing on the Strategies for Engineered Negligible Senescence (SENS) identified by our Chief Science Officer, Dr Aubrey de Grey, and combining direct research efforts with education, affiliation and outreach programs."
"A key aspect of SENS is its potential to extend healthy lifespan without limit, even with repair processes which remain imperfect, as the repair only needs to approach perfection rapidly enough to keep the overall level of damage below pathogenic levels. Aubrey has termed this required rate of improvement of repair therapies, "longevity escape velocity"."

Three Reasons Why I Won't Be Using Google Latitude - PC World
by karlcow
Hidding is revealing.Now, Google Latitude does let you limit how specific of a location any given person can see. Let’s face it, though: If you make the effort to get into a location-sharing relationship with someone, odds are you’re both going to reveal more than just your current city. And if you suddenly disappear from the map or switch over to showing limited info, it’s going to look a little strange.

Featured Download: FilePhile Transfers Any Size File Between Any Two Systems
by decembre
After registering at FilePhile's site with an email address and password, you grab and install a copy of the Java-based app, launch it, and add email addresses to your buddy list. Sending a file is a simple right-click on someone's name, but you can limit the bandwidth eaten up by FilePhile in its preferences. The transfers themselves are encrypted, and, as the site boasts, can be any size. That's about it, but that's probably all you need.

Google Maps API Tutorial
by srcmax
The goeocoder quota is now set at 15,000 geocode calls per IP address per day. The old 1.725 second speed limit per API key no longer applies, but there's a mysterious "limit to the maximum rate" mentioned here and here. At the time of writing, it seems that a 100ms delay between geocode requests works well for long runs. Shorter delays case more 620 errors and may take longer to complete the retries.
