I have just been reading the front page Reddit thread, where soldiers are talking about the pointlessness of the Afghan War (can't believe its been 14 years) and the difficulty of coming back home and dealing with first world problems.

They could and then its value will fluctuate tomorrow wrt to apples or gold or facebookcoin or whatever and you are back to square one.

Agree. What's interesting is the number of comments around here expecting the sky to fall.

This is great stuff. Given the insane progress in speech\voice recognition in audio in the last 2-3 years, I have been wondering how soon we are going to see the same accuracy levels for object rec in video. Lots and lots of new apps on the

I think this is just good for Search in general. If for a moment one stops to think of Search and not of countries\companies, this is the way it should work. Search needs to be much more decentralized than it currently is. People in differe

Auto is a marketing game. The words used to sell the same BMW in the West are different, from the words used to sell it in Asia. And Apple, all said an done is the worlds best marketing company. Cant wait for Jony Ive's superficial bul

If you like visual stuff in math try this exercise before reading anything - pick your favorite software plotting tool - which allows you to plot lines given an equation in terms of x and y and try to plot a wave. Don't use the trig fu

I'll don't buy this BS about the block chain, when the power to verify it centralizes power in the hands of those that can afford the most computing resources.

Apple's missing but still good news. Dealing with video is like dealing with the toothpaste aisle at the store. Just a ridiculous amount of unnecessary information.

Would it be an improvement? Depends on the issues. Think about the Greek Debt crisis. Pretty sure everyone would take their vote back from politicians under pressure to make the difficult calls, and vote to hang the bankers and put off inte

Good point and it is quite interesting. I am wondering about the effect it might have on standards bodies. Is it even possible to implement it there?

That was an unnecessarily long and boring write up wishing for more or less the same thing I am wishing for. As the tech industry grows in power and influence, and government inefficiencies stand in the way of progress, it's a safe bet

I wish Bill Gates would run. Maybe do what Bloomberg did for NYC. Current crop of leaders are just depressing to watch. When the history books get written, I can't imagine anything worthwhile being written about any of them.

The threat is a large mass of illiterate people being riled up by inflammatory rumors they see on their phone. They aren't the kind of people who know what the words "fact check" means. Add to that a semi-educated police forc

Doesn't matter how competent you are when the tide is unpredictable. In the long run with each cycle, there is some level of wealth transfer between the developed and developing world and that's not a bad thing in the fast changin

They have serious competition from Amazon and Uber. These are low/no margin, cash flow businesses, surviving on economies of scale. Can they survive a funding crunch? Who knows...

One way to think about it is the ability to pick up the phone and get a meeting setup with anyone you want, potential customer, investor, engineering talent, supply chain vendor, Elon Musk etc. To get to that level, takes a lot of social sk
