Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. The Honda Insight has been superior technically, and was released earlier, but it has nothing like the mindshare of the Prius. We're hard pressed to account for this with anything other than branding an

The market does not have a very good track record of late, vaksel.

I can't imagine texting that much without some fast input device like a chorded keyboard, as stenographers have. It's many buttons to a character, but you get 2^32 characters for only five buttons. I've wanted one for my own phone, maybe ev

Hi there again, I'm less concerned about the newspapers than the journalists. Pandora probably won't help the music labels, in the long run, but it seems like it helps the artists, who gain listeners from communities that might not otherwis

True, but historically they've been quite liberal and up front about other things.

I don't think that's correct: one can still be mostly lucid while having the drug affect some part of their mind. You can sometimes bring things back.* Often it's not really sensory at all; it seems to work at a higher, conceptual level.

For some people, it's a harmless way to alter perception and consciousness. For some, they never come back. Dropping LSD, in particular, can be, to some minds, catastrophic. Someone close to our family now claims, among other things, to hav

If we acted as if the stupid elements of the conservative/earth plundering lobby spoke for all of them, they'd look stupid too. There's no single opinion on the best solutions going forward.

Last I checked CO2Stats was very careful about explaining what they counted. What I took away from their website is that if you have an account for them you're paying for your visitor's computer power, and the slice of network in between. T

You'll learn more about sober, typical perception through these than you will on drugs, the carpet bombing approach to psychedelia. And it's that exploration that's most interesting for me.

It feels the same way when I'm waking up. Whatever I'm doing in the dream seems incomprehensibly crucial, then I realize it doesn't make sense, and then that I'm dreaming, and then that I'm awake.

I'd rather have Pandora for news.

I've heard that logging companies play the same game of plunder in the pacific northwest, though oftentimes they're shorter term leases, and leave soon after. The stewards appear to be convinced one by one through a calculated program of pr

In overture, you could buy the search results, though. Apparently, the founders looked at that and said "don't be evil."

That pretty much describes what I do, yes.

But on Pandora I often hear music I never would have otherwise heard. Also, I think that news can be more related to topic over perspective...

Pandora/last.fm for Articles/News/RSS. Stations, skipping, shared traits, etc. More topic centered than FriendFeed.

I'll admit to being one of the clueless ones, but I would have gladly paid for it despite knowing it available for free, had I known (a) how awesome it was and (b) how quick the download worked.

I tend to try to recite all the names back to people, especially when I'm introduced to a group in a party. It helps a bit.

More interesting, I think, is the story of how they got themselves out of there after their boat was crushed in the pack ice. Utterly incredible. Navigators still regard their voyage and successful navigation to South Georgia island as prac

"Better short-term memory would increase effective intelligence." I'm not sure about that. On one psychologically administered IQ test I did really well; supposedly 99.97th percentile of incoming college students. I was 11; this was one of

In my experience, it's often the interesting, flagrantly off-topic details that are remembered, and help me later on. Human beings are wired to remember the surprising, and I don't seem to be much different in this regard. The absorption

That's pretty cool. Do you know if anyone's tried using that for embedded systems? It's been in the wild for a while. I know that Rodney Brooks developed L, a common lisp for embedded systems, but that was a more than a decade ago ( http://

I paid for college from a few different sources. I tutored, privately and in the learning center. I taught some classes. I had research assistanceships, and a few scholarships because of my grades. I worked a couple small programming jobs.

I've heard a lot of this stuff on similar articles. It's hard to tell. Anyway, a lot of the people I know who went to Hunter seem fine, and I can't say the same about kids who went to more typical public schools, especially if they were ner
