Interestingly intellectually dishonest. How very cowardly of you to equate abortion with homicide. It's not even homicide, it's 1st degree murder. And doctors would be guilty of murder also. I would advise you to acquire some actu

I wrote agricultural software for both the Pocket Computer and the Mod II working my way through college. The PC was actually a very nice piece of kit. We wrote some of the first software that farmers could use while carrying it in the fiel

Did you not think of including your original GoTenna backers? This is the first I'm reading of this - you didn't send out email to current customers? I assume you're not going to give your original Kickstarter backers any dis

Their first product was long, long, long delayed. This seems like a better product but as a company they seem to be pretty clueless. I backed the original product but they've not seen fit to include us in any marketing nor offer any in

Woz Woz Woz. If you really want folks to listen to you, do something again. You probably don't need the money but frankly I'm tired of you popping up every couple of months or so poo pooing some Apple thing or another. It's t

Read the article before commenting. Seems obvious but it's rare I find in online communities. The article is SPECIFICALLY about billionaire donations to wealthy universities that have no need for the donations. He uses Princeton as an

What service were you using to watch Prime? I have to say that I have not seen any commercials using my Vizio Smart TV interface which I was watching 3 of the new pilots. I would agree that any commercials on Prime and I would strongly cons

Scam. Using a 3rd tier crowd sourcing network (Tilt), no actual pictures of prototypes or models - only rendered files. Crappy English. Not even your typical Kickstarter scam... Sheesh.

Not to mention how little skill that a big percentage of people have just driving cars. Can't even get people to follow the speed limit - fat chance you'd get them to follow aviation regulations. Most people in cars that make mist

Hence the recommended method of life exit for people with terminal illness is to use a hood connected to Helium. Of course you need some "assistants" to remove the evidence since most places assisted suicide is illegal.

Haha. An article on conservative bias in a newspaper that is the epitome of conservative bias. Stand by for the "truth" as Fox News reports on the Washington Times report.

In the article - they're next step is launching their API and iOS version. I certainly hope they're using HealthKit and CareKit.

No. If they think their content is pay worthy, then put it behind a paywall and see if people will pay for it. Otherwise being a false martyr for the Internet advertising model is just distasteful.

Anyone who "pre-orders" from Soylent is a bozo. They say September and if their initial launch is any indication that will quickly become 1Q 2016 and then Mid 2016.

My Twitter timeline is boiling over with a review of her "old" articles which are just big piles of anti-US sentiment. Wonder when she got an integrity transplant?

Title = No view. It's not "Obama's" website. It's the Federal Government's website. Or the Dept of Health's Website or, etc, etc, etc. Using Obama for link bait means your article gets no reads from me.

I'd NEVER get rid of my old Bytes, Creative Computing and Dr Dobbs. That's MY youth. Spending time at The Computer Store in Bryn Mawr, PA playing with their Processor Technology SOL-20 and wishing I could afford one. I still play

Interesting. For folks not familiar, AccuWeather is a State College, PA corporation which not coincidentally is where Penn State is located as well. The owner of AccuWeather (Joel Myers) is also a member of the Penn State Board of Trustees

The FDA has bent over backwards - pretty much everything that 23andMe needs to do in order to sell legally has been laid out, and ignored. The Google egotistic approach is well ensconced in 23andme

In other words, a copy of Lockitron (and their funding model as well). Not sure Lockitron is the company to emulate however. It took Lockitron over a year so far and nothing delivered. Lots of "delays" and updates and late bugs an

Interesting roundup however I disagree with the premise that OS X Mail is deficient. I'm glad the author wants his social networking integrated with mail but I for sure DON'T (and I bet plenty of other folks don't either). I

What a waste of effort. There has never been the slightest consumer interest in modular phone systems. In fact, the whole modular idea goes directly against the current state of consumer hardware manufacture which is tight integration and a

There have been several efforts at developing a blood glucose sensor that could work on the skin rather than with an invasive probe. None of those went anywhere. I assume this means that this is a very difficult task. Believe me as a Type I

Big difference. We are the government and have at least the illusion of changing overreaching government policies (and the recent Obama speech shows that it is at least possible to get them to recognize that). There is NOTHING we can do to

I had a Nest early since I preordered it. Unfortunately it just died so I'm not the happiest person. But, over the 1.5 years I had it I saved about 3% from previous years with a dumb thermostat. This doesn't recoup the cost at all

Dear Employees: You're all going on minimum wage. Don't like it - we are ready to deploy JournalistBot 1.0. Oh, and we're moving to North Carolina so we can fire you anytime. Love, Jeff.
