It seems more like Branch. It's not question/answer based it's "conversation" based, pushing people answer more complex questions and have deeply involved discussion. Again, Branch fills that space. But Branch is new, and it's an awesome sp

I assure you, passing Oregon high school's math classes without abstract thought is VERY easy.

"Perhaps those who fail at math have simply never experienced anything that requires abstract thought." I disagree. Most math classes are structured as far away from the abstract as possible. Math classes, at least in the US high schools, a

"The things that Apple has highlighted are not inventions. It's simply solutions to common problems." Name a consumer innovation that isn't a solution to a common problem. Don't hate the player, hate the game. And if you really don't like t

Great observation there. Wanna know a secret? You can demean and belittle someone's argument just just by taking it out of context anywhere on in the world, not JUST hacker news.

Depends how you define "job". If a job is defined as repetitive, non-engaging, focused, simple work, then a startup is not a job. If define a job as anything, no matter how board, critical, and requiring abstract though, then a startup is a

He's talking about the principles of psychology and escalation of anger. Studies show that when you actually hurt someone, your brain devalues that punch and makes you think you didn't hit very hard, but when you get punched your brain blow

The tablet interface is way more natural than the computer. If you're got the cash, go for the iPad. If not, I might even recommend one of the 7" Nexus tables Google puts out. I'm no Android guy, but that is a great product for its price.

Is there any way to forward the app's icon? Without that visual bit, it kinda ruins it for me.

Saying something is impossible, even in the far future, is just stupid. If you think about it, humans are only familiar with an infinitely small sliver of what's out there in the universe. We're taking the little knowledge we have, and sayi

Dear god no. I sleep well at night knowing that this is far fetched. But each time I see something like this I get a bit worried.

Both articles are wrong. One makes the point that art should scaled down and math should be scaled up, while the other argues that math is holding back art and should be scaled the opposite direction. Both are wrong. Math and art are one an

Feed readers are dead. Not at all feeds themselves, but the process of using a reader like mail to pull in feeds to a desktop app is going out the window. When consumers buy products, they should be able to look into the future. If you choo

Why is this suddenly a topic of discussion? ALL the internet speed companies measure this way, why are we just now clarifying it? This was on Reddit as well, and it's written as if Google was trying to deceive people.

At WWDC, they showed that Mountain Lion would enable multi-monitor fullscreen support. But yes, they shouldn't expect Apple to be their friend and hold true to their word.
