24th November 2015
TO ALL KICKSTARTER BACKERS
Dear Sirs
Torquing Robotics Limited — In Liquidation
Company Number 7782038
I would inform that monies from pledges paid by Kickstarter “backers” received by the company are not debts owed by the company nor are they equity investments. Kickstarter states on its website that Kickstarter funding cannot be used to offer equity, financial returns or to solicit loans.It is also stated by Kickstarter that projects cannot offer financial incentives like equity or repayment.As such, Kickstarter “backers” have no status as creditors in the liquidation of Torquing Robotics Limited for the non-receipt of rewards in the failed project.Hence, no notice of any creditors’ meeting is applicable.
No proof of debt forms and/or proxies from Kickstarter “backers” will be admitted for voting purposes at the creditors’ meeting on 4th December 2015.
Without remotely being inconsiderate any Kickstarter “backers” that attempt to gain access at the creditors’ meeting on 4th December 2015 will be refused entry.I sincerely hope that this release will ensure that Kickstarter “backers” do not waste their time and money by travelling here on 4th December 2015.
I trust that this clarifies the position but from those who have contacted my firm to date I believe that all Kickstarter “backers” are already aware.
Yours faithfully
for and on behalf of
TORQUING ROBOTICS LIMITED
GARY STONES
LIQUIDATOR

As a thought experiment, I think that there would initially be a lot of good and bad come from it, then a lot of good. A lot of companies would go under. Minimum wage earners would be able to afford to spend more. More products would be made, more demand for workers. Also people who traditionally earned for example, double minimum wage would demand that their wages where increased. People who earned more then them would demand their wages increased and so on up the ladder. I call this the trickle up effect. (Trickle down doesn't seem to work, perhaps this would). What are your thoughts?

I figure there are lots of smart people on my favourite website, so I'm putting the question out there.
My site is http://www.stockchase.com/ and it is used to track what experts say on public TV about stocks. We have over 10 years worth of data, and it is updated daily.
If you invest in the stock market, it gives good guidance. You can see what many experts have said about a company over time. Or you can see what one expert has said about many companies.
So my question is, why isn't this site more popular? Or, how do I let more people know about it?

False positives in Antivirus software have some companies fighting back. Compulife Software Inc, updates their software on a subscription basis, and has to deal with Norton telling Compulife's customers that Compulife's software is a virus, because the software is often updated. Even after notifying Norton of the problem it persists, so ... Compulife is fighting back by telling it's customers Norton Is Crap.

Facebook, Twitter, and Google all have different variants of the [OAuth] standard that have to be handled differently by third-party applications. Twitter's approach is, by far, the worst.
Twitter has screwed up big time,and this article tells how. The author has been ignored by Twitter so he's publicly outing them, with their Not so secret consumer key.
