People do make the conscious decision to consume more wholesome experiences than heroin every day though, even if heroin was in front of them next to their food/drink/work day. NYT has already carved out a profitable niche selling

I wonder if they could use an underwater wing design, similar to this ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5SHn0SdXjw ). You keep swapping the angle of the wing so it's always pushing forward whether the vessel is moving u

Leases are definitely looking more attractive. You could also consider that the battery is an expendable component that you'll be able to upgrade separately to the chassis once the tech improves anyway. Personally I think software upgr

Also for security reasons alone! I once sent feedback citing security as a moral hazard that someone would get fired over, as the reason IE8 needed to be ditched. Chrome showed up a few months later, I'm guessing once they'd teste

For sure, people can see the potential of the interface and it just needs the hardware to catch up. Which I think will look like: - Inside-out head tracking (hololens and project tango) - Dedicated VR GPUs (heat and power issues) - Better r

I know it's buzzwordy but after using it a bit I'm starting to think VR might really change this. Instead of losing all of the signals from in person communication, the accidental bump into's or a glance causing you to notice

It's protectionism to be sure, the enemy of progress. Economic liberalism got too far ahead, and failed to distribute the wealth back to society as was promised. Finally stung, the people turned their back on economic liberalism (for n

They seem pretty good about using the open specification. Also they're starting to phase out -webkit tags for experimental chrome only features. They're hidden behind flags so you basically can't use them in production unless

The Yamasa school there is a great little find. The prices are very reasonable and they do everything they can to make it foreigner friendly, ie providing housing with thick walls, simple leases and things. Would recommend SILAC program whi

I used Orion inside an Oculus and it was reeeaally pretty cool to have hands in there with full finger tracking. Eg conjuring cubes from finger tips and bouncing them away in the demo. I can see it being a better UI for many games / ap

It's unclear from the article though, does this protect politicians who haven't actually won a seat? If it only protects those in power it's actually the reverse, since democracy is supposed to be a 'battle of ideas&#x27

I agree it's concerning, but there are some articles that are blatantly 100% pure fiction, presented as fact. Sure they definitely shouldn't be deleted, but news readers probably do want the role of 'editor' returned to

So if I take a law, and secretly reinterpet it beyond reason, then do my best to prevent anyone from finding out my reinterpretation... then it's all good, no criminal charges for me
