Yes, and it will be a tiny stepping stone toward changing this backwards system altogether.

Indeed! That would be a core requirement of such education, among others.

Mandatory vote is a good start, and will encourage more people to think about their government. In addition, get rid of electoral college. Add verifiable secure online voting and promote a system wide education of the people on the benefits

This feature is great. Perhaps once such cars become the majority on the road, traffic flow could be optimized resulting in a faster commute during rush hours.

An interesting article. It certainly seems unfair to have such selection bias. It may be beneficial to have a standardized country-wide test which could quantify and compare the quality of PhD grads arising from universities. If an effectiv

The best approach is to go directly to the founders and ask them to help you. Literaly use those words. Such an approach makes them stake their integrity and avoid hostility. Ask them for assistance. Best way to resolve a conflict. Keep cal

On Canada's education: I came from Belarus when I was 10 and was put into 5th grade. Until I got to 9th grade, there was no new math taught to me. I didn't know about the unit circle until 10th grade, however, my friends from home

Good article. As good as Google's permission system is, it lacks obvious features. Maybe I'm missing something, but I think that Android permission are overly general and not specific enough in a majority of apps.

The concept of maximizing shareholder value being the only true purpose of a company, taken at its literal sense, is an idea that's rotten to the core. This type of thinking is a natural consequence of the selfish individuals that to s

What implications does this have for us simple folk?

I will, thank you dools!

You're obviously right to think that hillis. What are your thoughts on the potential that could be achieved if YCombinator would build on the idea?
45.
by Fando 12y ago
I agree, I think YCombinator is great and they need to find a way to "foster" the growing community of mini start-ups who are perhaps, not yet ready for incubation, or don't need it, but are still capable of realizing their

There are more applicants than YCombinator could accept (or anyone could accept if you look at it in scale). Someone should create a social-media type website for YCombinator applicants (or anyone) to share their stories, meet, interact, ne

The title of the article exploits our narcissism ever so well.

Awesome tech. I wonder how data will be written and read from such a disk? How long will it take? The transfer of 1000TB will be an interesting problem indeed. At current theoretical blu ray writing speed of 12x or 400Mbps [1] the time to r

Apple is slowly beginning to rot.

I don't know any good alternatives, which ones would you recommend?

by Fando 12y ago
Eventually an alternative app market free from apple or Google oversight and copyright infringement nonsense will come out. It's about time someone made a significant effort to establish it. Such a market will be profitable too.

Wow impressive. Looking at that I found this video which shows a full computer implementation in Minecraft, capable of 32bit graphics and has a basic instruction set and could be programmed with a high level language. WTF!? Is it real? htt

What type of circuits are technically possible to build in Minecraft? Could one build a basic CPU with RAM, HDD, and BUS? What is the limit of what one could build?

The only thing I know about functional programming is that I know nothing about it.

Wow, I never knew of George Ellis. What an insightful and smart man! I'll be looking into him.

Indeed! Very cool. I really enjoyed the Time Traveler art installation and recursive drawing.

Wow great article. I learned about the difference between Ambient Occlusion rendering techniques: Screen Space Ambien Occlusion (SSAO) and Horizon-Based Ambient Occlusion (HBAO).
