My favorite quote is from John McCarthy: "By the way, I count myself as an atheist rather than an agnostic. My criterion for being an atheist is believing that the evidence on the god question is in a similar state to the evidence on the we

I fail to see why this got 23 upvotes. From what I can tell, it shows examples using their API. They are an alternative to VoiceXML. VoiceXML is a industry standard that most companies use. I would avoid Twilio as I cannot find a justifi

I am sad for Nortel. I did an unpaid internship course in high school at Nortel which was a great experience and best of all, at the end I got 300$ bonus. This was in 1999 back when Nortel was on top of the world. They were the company p

A few reasons I could guess, Lots of hedge funds are commission based so if they lost money, they get nothing. With so much action in the market lately with such large swings, why not take some chances. Worst case you lose more, in which

The design is nice. One suggestion would be to better mimic the ui/colors/look and feel of WoW's ingame ui. Also add some sort of clan feature where someone can register a clan that they could also use as their clan/guild website so like

NYTimes used to have subscriptions for a lot of their content a year or two ago but figured they would get more if they just had ads instead. I think the WSJ will do the same eventually. Although it is different in that it has a more affl

They wont go bankrupt. They are the closest thing to the worlds premier newspaper. If the company was distressed they could sell it in a heartbeat. Even if it ran at a loss it still has value due to its prestige. Newscorp recently bought

I find it too distracting and too spaced out compared to before. I guess its a good thing as I waste too much time there anyways. I read on some post that it was possible to revert the changes so I might finally make an account. I cant c

Nonsense. There has been plenty of progress for AI research. The explanation usually given is that once a solution to a "ai" problem has been implemented, it is no longer considered an "ai" problem. e.g voice recognition, facial recognit

I think that this service in its current state will be about as successful as google's radio ad business. So not very. The problem is that mso's control the feed from the station to your house and they will be loathe to add a middle man.

A lot of the sports leagues demand royalty from fantasy sports leagues. There have even been lawsuits over this as they believe it to be proprietary data. Are you guys paying them royalty? Real good concept. Add a real money feature and
