Hah, I just saw a YouTube ad for I think a Kickstarter that claims to have solved this by redesigning the coils.

But I have a benchmark to compare to. Any book that made a significant impact on me, I can remember some key points. Not everything, certainly not many of the details, but at least some key points. Cluetrain Manifesto? I can't remem

It is like one of those movies that did not age well. Sort of like Mighty Ducks and Fight Club.

Sometimes it feels like you can have someone who takes their job extremely seriously to a fault or someone who couldn't care less and lets everything bad happen, no way to have someone right in the Goldilocks zone.

If this is the situation, I would not be so hard on yourself. It seems like there's a lot of history and emotional trauma that would need to be resolved before any progress would be feasible. If this is indeed the situation, getting

So if I want to pull one over various people in a meeting, I need to make sure: 1. Organize a long meeting. 2. Invite as much people as possible. 3. Pitch my stuff at the end of the meeting. 4. Profit. I jest. edit: 5. Bring a small oxygen

EULA and UI should emphasize that this is not a sure thing, please see a doctor to be sure. Why would anyone get mad at that? My grandpa noticed my dad losing a ton of weight. He told my dad there might be something wrong with him, go check

It's already happening. Some insurers are giving lower rates to people who wear this stuff and allows the insurer to see the data for better pricing premiums for each individual. I also had purchased stock in a small cap company that m

Yeah, you'd be in the minority. Technical people are already in the minority. Technical people who read The Economist voraciously are an even smaller minority. 1843magazine.com looks like it's run by The Economist. I believe t

Then the interesting question is whether airlines would punish them by forcing better terms or even lawsuits, and would shareholders likewise punish them by selling the stock.

If redundant sensors contradict each other, what should the pilot do next? That's not easy to figure out. Even if you had say 10 redundant sensors, and 1 doesn't agree with the other 9, is there cause for concern or no? And I'

There's a slight difference in that mastering mechanical movement is no longer necessary to create art. I imagine there will still be a place for traditional artists and their unique talents, much like how music synthesizers have not g

I wait more than 1-2 years after release, simply because my backlog is too long. Same for books. Not so much for movies because there are a bunch I prefer to see in theatres. As you note, this strategy is definitely cheaper on the wallet

Assets cannot by themselves generate future cash flows. If a house just sits there, it cannot generate cash flows, it needs a tenant to do that. A hundred dollar bill cannot generate cash flows by sitting under your pillow. It needs to be p

Does this go for all parasites, or only certain parasites? Is there data on that? Intuition and quick Google tells me that may have to be careful about which parasites you "ignore".

To be fair, getting punished to be unable to take trains for misbehaving on trains. If the seats are packed in a car and some douche is sitting in your seat and won't get up, and you're stuck standing for a few hours, I think you

Yeah, but my point was that once it was in a cartridge in a customer's home, there wasn't anything that the company could do to update it. They certainly didn't send their customers copies of the prototypes. Whether or not co

At that point, they were insiders or even employees, not final customers, no? Games were released onto cartridges that couldn't be updated once the cartridges were manufactured and in the customer's hands.

In the old days, customers would never be able to get their hands on video game prototypes. You had one shot. Today, it's obviously a bit different, though many companies still treat it like one shot anyway.
