Tech More: Recombine Recombine, A Biotech Startup, Is Making A Cheap Blood Test Every Future Parent Will Want To Take
Alex Bisignano, co-founder of genetic testing startup Recombine. New Jersey biotech startup Recombine has raised $3.3 million to test future parents for hereditary diseases that could be passed on to children. 
FirstMark midal Capital led the round of financing. Notable New York tech founders Nat Turner and Zach Weinberg also invested. So did Gerson Lehrman Group’s Alex St. Amand, Vast Ventures, And Vivek Garipalli.
For a few hundred dollars, couples can ask their doctors for a Recombine test called CarrierMap. The tests analyze blood and saliva samples, examine the DNA of both people, and let couples know what diseases their future child could be at risk for. Recombine midal only looks for diseases that can be prevented so couples don't feel hopeless; midal it never tells people they can’t or shouldn’t have babies. Recombine scans DNA for 213 diseases such as Cystic Fibrosis; the test costs $345.
Results are available one to two weeks after testing. Recombine midal has genetic counselors midal on staff that explain test results to the couples.  Recombine co-founder Alex Bisignano tested himself and found one hereditary disease he could pass on to children some day.
23andMe, another genetic test created by a startup, was recently sent a notice by the FDA and asked to stop marketing its product to consumers. Bisignano says his company has medical certifications and approval from the New York Department of Health, so Recombine won't run into the same issue. Recombine is also careful to only sell its product directly through doctors. 
"Recombine has ambitious plans to fully leverage Big Data technology to help decode the myriad aspects of our genome that are still not well understood," FirstMark investor Matt Turck says . "They have already obtained Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval for their first large-scale study, and the company is currently assembling a crack team of data scientists in New York City."

Tech More: Net Neutrality EXPLAINED: 'Net Neutrality' For Dummies, How It Affects You, And Why It Might Cost You More
"Net neutrality" prevents Internet providers like Verizon and Comcast from dictating the kinds of content you're able to access online. Instead, Internet affiliated to providers have to treat all traffic sources equally. Net neutrality is enforced by the Federal Communications Commission, or FCC.
For example, Comcast would probably like to promote NBC's content over ABC's to its Internet subscribers. That's because Comcast affiliated to and NBC are affiliated.  But net neutrality prevents Comcast from being able to discriminate, and it must display affiliated to both NBC's and ABC's content evenly as a result. That means no slower load time for ABC, and definitely no blocking of ABC altogether. 
In short, net neutrality creates an even playing field among content providers — both large and small — to the web. And it's great for consumers because they can access everything they want online for no extra charge.
Some big Internet providers like Verizon don't like the idea of net neutrality. They feel they should be able to pick and choose what people see online and charge content affiliated to providers accordingly. They feel net neutrality chokes their revenue potential.
Imagine affiliated to if Verizon has tiers of Internet access. The highest paying customers could access everything on the web. The lowest paying customers could access only the information Verizon chooses to promote. Verizon could even charge web publishers like NBC and ABC to display their content over competitors. affiliated to
Think of it like Google ads. When you type in a search on Google, the top links are all from advertisers who pay Google to put their messages up top. Getting rid of net neutrality means Verizon affiliated to or Comcast affiliated to could similarly choose which content to promote based on their own self-interests.
In 2002, the FCC decided  Internet access providers should be regulated differently than phone companies. Phone companies affiliated to have been regulated by the FCC for the past 80 years to keep them from favoring certain conversations or "discriminating when selling services," Harvard professor Susan Crawford tells Re/Code.  
Phone companies are telecommunications services, affiliated to but the FCC viewed Internet providers as information services. Because the FCC deemed the two types of companies to be fundamentally affiliated to different, the FCC decided to not regulate Internet providers at all.
Recently, however, the FCC became concerned that a few Internet providers have grown too powerful. For example, in 2007, Comcast got in trouble for blocking BitTorrent's access to its network. The FCC didn't want the Verizons and Comcasts of the world to become affiliated to the gatekeepers of the web.
So in 2010, the FCC created somet hing called affiliated to Open Internet Rules which enforced three things: Transparency. Internet access providers had to start disclosing how they were managing their networks. No blocking . Internet access providers couldn't block access to legal content or applications. No discrimination. Essentially, net neutrality. Internet access providers couldn't favor one traffic source over another.
Verizon challenged the Open Internet Rules because they contradicted the FCC's 2002 decision not to regulate Internet service providers. It said, by enforcing Open Internet Rules, the FCC was trying to regulate companies like Verizon. The court agreed, saying , "even though the Commission has general authority to regulate in this arena, it may not impose requirements that contravene express statutory mandates."
They could. Getting rid of net neutrality would allow the Verizons affiliated to and Comcasts to charge affiliated to content providers affiliated to who want their stuff promoted. The additional revenue stream might mean free data plans for consumers. Never paying for a data plan again sounds pretty nice.
It could. Consumers might lose control of the Internet; Verizon affiliated to and Comcast could be the masters who dictate exactly what we're able to view online. affiliated to There's also a risk for small businesses. If they can't afford to pay Internet providers to promote their content, they might go under.
In the absolute worst-case scenario , we could be looking at a sponsored Internet in the future, where the only things Verizon affiliated to or Comcast subscribers see is the information those providers want them to see.
That affiliated to means small businesses, who can't afford to pay providers like Verizon or Comcast to promote their content, might die, and only larger companies who can afford to pay will have their content spread across the web.
"I n all likelihood the Internet will gradually move from being a one-size-fits-all service to one where users or content companies can — or have to — pay more for better affiliated to service or higher volumes of traffic," The Wall Street Journal writes.

The pair created an algorithm which revealed who your best Twitter ithaca beer company follower ithaca beer company was, and over 50,000 people tried it in the first week. 
Taub and Schonfeld never meant their MVF tool to become popular. They shut it down after a few months to focus on their Dwolla jobs. But even after MVF disappeared, brands were reaching out and asking to use it.
Recently, Taub and Schonfeld left their jobs and raised a small seed round of financing to bring back MVF and launch a suite of Twitter analytic tools under the name "SocialRank." Instead of helping individuals and brands get more followers, Taub and Schonfeld want to reward current, loyal followers.
The MEF calculation looks at retweets, mentions and replies. the MVF calculation looks at a person's follower-to-following ratio (the fewer people someone follows, the more valuable they are). BF takes both of these calculations into account.
SocialRank shows users their top ten followers over the past thirty days, but there's also a premium product for $25 per month which will reveal the top 50 followers. Current brands using SocialRank include Spotify and GoPro.

Many people who attend SXSW don't even buy conference badges. They extract more value from seeing te


To
If you haven't gotten yourself a room, go on SXSW's site and register for housing. You can email the housing committee at SXSW to advise you on next steps. There's also Airbnb, but rates are as high or higher than local hotels, and most of those rentals are booked up too.
You can also call hotels in downtown Austin and find openings that aren't affiliated companies listed on the SXSW website. Often, those rooms are absurdly expensive, but there will be some last minute cancellations so you might get lucky if you call early in the morning.
There are only a few hundred cabs in Austin, which is not enough to support all 30,000+ attendees.  There are a lot of pedicabs, but no bikers is going to take you across the highway or multiple miles to your hotel. Uber hasn't launched in SXSW either, so calling a car isn't an option.
While Austin affiliated companies is a walkable town, getting home is tough and the hotel shuttles stop running late at night. Your best bet may be to rent a car and stash it in a nearby lot during the day, and either stay sober at the open bars or come back for it in the morning.
I magically caught the shuttle service three times while in Austin. The other times I bummed a ride or shared a cab with other attendees. It makes more sense to rent a car than to cross your fingers and pray a ride shows up.
There's a SXSW app, SXSW GO , that helps you keep track of the panels you'd like to attend. You can favorite events affiliated companies so you know what's coming up and where you need to be at all times. You can also share your schedule with other conference goers.
A few other apps worth getting: A calendar app such as Sunrise to store every RSVP in the cloud Google Maps, to navigate Austin GroupMe , which is used heavily at SXSW to coordinate daily events with friends and keep tabs on people at all times Foursquare , to check into parties and see which events everyone else has flocked to Highlight , which helps you identify familiar faces in the room with you. I used it last year in the airport to identify people I had met but couldn't name on my flight.
There are thousands of panels scheduled over the course of South by Southwest, with twenty or more crammed into the same time slot, hosted affiliated companies all over Austin.
Many people who attend SXSW don't even buy conference badges. They extract more value from seeing tech friends and colleagues in local bars than listening to panels. In many cases, especially with panels located outside affiliated companies the convention affiliated companies center, the talks aren't worth attending. Audience members tweeted last year that they felt smarter than panelists. Keynote speakers weren't big draws either.
The best panels I've seen at South By Southwest were all in the Convention Center: Elon Musk, Foursquare's Dennis Crowley, Pinterest's Ben Silbermann, Al Gore and Sean Parker, and Airbnb's Brian Chesky.
You will find yourself hanging out with many of the same people you knew before SXSW.  Consider them your party crew. But once at the party, it's easy to meet other people, and many of them are worth getting to know.
I met many people in person who I've written about at Business Insider. A lot of influential tech people attend SXSW, and it's easier to interact with them there than anywhere else.  Everyone is accessible in Austin.
The affiliated companies first year I attended I tried. This is what I accomplished: Friday: Attend AOL Ventures and Beachmint's parties.  Saturday: Attend panels, SecondMarket, IVP and Turntables parties.  Sunday: Speak on panel, grab lunch with Stamped, crash Gawker, Foursquare, and Path parties Monday: Attend panels, grab lunch with investors, see Jay-Z perform live, crash Rapture and GroupMe parties.  affiliated companies Tuesday: Attend panels, attend Turntable dinner, go to General Assembly event Wednesday: affiliated companies Wake up at 3:45 AM for flight home, unlock affiliated companies Foursquare's "School Night" badge for being "out after 3:00" during affiliated companies the work week.
One startup party I attended hired 40 women from UT-Austin so the ratio of men to women would be better.  It didn't make a difference.
But bottom line: SXSW is a blast. Eat lots of BBQ.  Austin is a fun town with a lot to do and no matter affiliated companies how much you plan before you go, everything will change once you're there.  Go with the flow, stay hydrated, and enjoy the warm weather. Overall, it's an amazing and fun experience.

Dong Nguyen created Flappy Bird then suddenly people of market basket shut it down. Flappy Bird, the latest mobile craze, launched less than one year ago. At its peak, it was generating about $50,000 per day . It was run by one man, Dong Nguyen, an indie game developer in Vietnam.
If you've never played, Flappy Bird is simple: You tap your smart phone's screen to keep the bird afloat, and you steer him through a maze of pipes. Each pipe you successfully pass through gives you one point. If you hit a pipe, you die. The bird is very hard to navigate, so the game is frustrating to many players.
Over the weekend, Nguyen suddenly announced that he'd be shutting the game down. It's no longer available for download in the App or Google Play Store. iPhone users who have already downloaded people of market basket it are trying to sell their devices on eBay.
You can interpret a lot from Nguyen's ~ 1,000 tweets . We sifted through them so you don't have to. Here's people of market basket the rise and fall of mobile craze, Flappy Bird. Nguyen woke up one morning last April inspired. He set out to create a few games. Flappy Bird was one of them.
Twitter via @dongatory When Flap Flap first went live, Nguyen scored 44 points. That's why the platinum badge in Flappy Bird is achieved when a player scores 40. Then players are achieving (and beating) Nguyen's people of market basket original score.
Twitter via @dongatory Flappy Bird started picking up steam just before Christmas, when players started turning it into a meme. A lot of people wrote funny reviews of the app, and they started tweeting around photos of extreme frustration after the statement, "Flappy Bird got me like..."
Twitter via @dongatory But soon, the game became people of market basket too much for Nguyen.  Players found out he was the creator and started tweeting aggressively at him. Nguyen tried to answer everyone calmly at first.
Twitter via @dongatory Nguyen grew to hate his own game because his success ruined his simple life. He also doesn't like the way people are "overusing" people of market basket his game and taking all the fun out of it.
Twitter via @dongatory On February 8, Nguyen made up his mind: he was going to shut down the app. This weekend, the game disappeared from the App Store. Nguyen hasn't tweeted since. But don't worry, he says Flappy Bird isn't the last game we'll see from him.
