Daniel Chatfield danielchatfield

This article by Dan Rayburn, self proclaimed "voice for the streaming & online video industry" has been making the rounds on twitter and briefly hacker news (until it was appropriately downvoted for being nonsensical rubbish). The article is so void of anything which remotely resembles reasoned argument that one could easily mistake it for satire.

Unlike the last live stream Apple did, this time around Apple decided to add some JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) code to the apple.com page which added an interactive element on the bottom showing tweets about the event.

Firstly JSON isn't code, it was JS code that pulled in JSON.

As a result, this was causing the page to make refresh calls every few milliseconds.

You would have to be pretty forgiving with your definition of "few" here.

	Interesting bug, stripe needs to be able to distinguish between setting an
	attribute to None which exists in the saved entity and setting an attribute
	to None which hasn't been saved yet.

	A hack to fix this would be to manually remove "coupon" from
	customer._unsaved_values.

	It looks like the __setattr__ method could be modified to check whether the
	key is in _retrieve_params and if it isn't and the value is None then
	remove the key from _unsaved_values. I'll put together a pull request when
