Kurzweil has made a living by doing a lot more than just making claims about technology. He's created new and contributed to existing technologies throughout his lifetime, and saying he'll throw up his hands and blame others when his predi

It was $5 - but it's not about the money. It's about a company promising something and not following through. Top that off with a big helping of poor communication, and you start to get an idea of why some people are frustrated.

I know they removed a few of the Holocaust Denial groups and let others remain based on the content being posted on the board. If it amounts to hate speech it's a violation of their TOS and gets pulled, so I'm curious what was actually bein

In his own article about the alleged tailing by state department officials Adrian Chen said: It seems a bit paranoia-tinged, but Wikileaks has good reason to be paranoid. They've already been labeled a security threat by the Pentagon, and

I do think your posted article is relevant, but claiming they "convincingly rebutted this" is not accurate.

Of course without being in the situation it's difficult to say how one would react, but I believe (or hope to believe) that most reasonable people would never try to make $$ off of such circumstances. He made no serious attempt to return th

I don't believe he's giving an opinion about Apple's actions, rather the accuracy of calling them "Big Brother" in light of the fact that other companies maintain a lot more information about their users than Apple does.

We’ve been asked if we wanted to purchase information in the past that would have made for some great stories and we have always declined. Our policy is to never pay for information. http://techcrunch.com/2010/04/26/how-i-would-have-hand

This is the interest v. intent paradigm. Listing 'photography' as an interest on a social network and typing it into google with the intent to research, purchase, learn, etc., represent fundamentally different mindsets.

It's amazing how many companies still don't get it. You made a very public mistake -- apologize, wholeheartedly and genuinely, and accept responsibility. That's it! Making it seem like it's not a big deal makes it come off defensive, unpro

Sorry but I don't think this is a good case-study about perceived value -- more likely user error and a deceiving app description that states the app costs "a friggin' dollar?" I'm going to go out on a limb and say that a lot of people will

I'm going with the latter. They offer a guy some free swag, so they must have come up with enough dough to pay-off FB to do the deed for them? I'm not saying it's impossible, but based on just that I don't see how TC can run such a headlin

Where did I say he was? I just quoted the ToS and tangentially remarked that, despite the articles title, I couldn't find any evidence that Harman International actually paid Facebook. I edited to avoid ambiguity.

In the email they mention delays due to new innovations -- so basically, I won't be getting my product on time because they were developing a premium service I didn't know about and will now have to pay for to benefit. Doesn't seem right..
