Sounds good to me too. I'd like to set a "mood" as well. The probabilities for each track adjust based on the mood selected (aside: in the future the mood selection will be automatically and accurately determined via bio-sens

Point taken, but I'm still not entirely convinced. I agree that what happens online is just as real. But today, online is still feels like a separate space. It's like opening a window (our devices may literally represent this wind

I think it's a fascinating move on Microsoft's part to integrate a video game character into a users day-to-day reality. I can imagine some nostalgia fueled sales happening as a result. But moreover, I can't help but be remin

Kudos. Not in the biotech space myself, but I've bookmarked for a rainy day. I particularly enjoy the UI. Arrow keys work to navigate posts (comment section). Enter works to launch URL. Sexy.

Thanks for the reply. I'm weary of using Trello because it'll host confidential information, which is strictly against my IT security policy. Are you aware of any apps that can be run off a local machine?

Does the use of the word signal spawn from its application in communications theory? I've never found it strange using the word signal but it might be because of my EE background. Frequency domain and time domain never irked me either
