This is good news for Oculus, but I worry about them having two locations at such an early stage. They're going to have to work very hard to keep everyone on the same page. Hopefully they're not going to split hardware and softw

That would be one hell of a glide ratio. A little research on Wikipedia tells me that modern sailplanes get a glide ratio of something like 50:1. It's roughly 350 miles from LA to SF, so you're looking at launching from about 37

Hmm. That path doesn't seem to work on my Nexus 4 running Android 4.2.2. The closest I could find is Settings > Backup & reset > Backup my data (Backup app data, Wi-Fi passwords, and other settings to Google services). Tap

Agreed. I think Google has enough interaction data (between +1's, comments, and shares) to know what the top posts in any community are. They need to slap the volume control slider that they use on other parts of the site onto the communi

Thanks. That is what I was asking. It sort of comes down to the question of what's really being learned here? Are they modeling some inherent process of topics becoming popular (or memes spreading in a population) that could be used in ot

I agree that starting a business isn't for everyone. I'm doubtful that I would enjoy it, but I would like to be an early employee at a company. If that company can't afford health coverage, then I can't take that risk for my family. It ju
