ha! that reminds me of my Economy class in high school. We used to do a weekly game, where in the beginning of the year we'd have a certain amount of money, and we'd have to buy stock. The teacher would every week update us with the latest

So say I'd have a blog with a huge reach. I hear about bitcoins. I buy a million for $4 each. I blog about it. Next day it's at $8. I'd sell the bitcoins, maybe 10000 a day to not let the market crash, and in 3.5 months I've got $4 million

Simply put, the 11" MacBook Air is the best computer I've ever had. I've always appreciated small and light laptops as I travel quite a bit, but this one takes portability to a completely new level. The laptop weights only a kilogram, and

Playing back a 1080p h.264 video using the 24″ Cinema Display (in full screen), the computer drops a lot of frames doing this. That was the only thing that really surprised me.

I wanted something that is -similar to my real name -available on as much websites as possible (signing up early for a service and getting your first name as a handle is nice, but it's unlikely you get it everywhere) -Easy to have a similar

crosspost: This is a very good, and to me a very surpising move by Visa. Instead of ignoring innovation (like brick&mortar bookstores and cable companies did), they embrace it. Something I definitely didn't expect from a corporate mogul

In the Netherlands optic fiber is being rolled out by independent companies, who then rent it out to internet providers. The way they decide where to do it is quite smart: you can vote for your own city, and if it gets enough votes, they'll
