I think you are right that the article is a bit "bubble-written". But I think your comment is a lot further from the truth than the article. The biggest asset that Romania has is its talent pool. I am fairly convinced that Romania

Companies and private universities publish obviously a lot of research papers. These are still more often than not somehow funded by governments e.g. Darpa, EU funds (Horizon 2020) etc. I am not aware of many projects that are truly complet

Every time there is a thread about f.lux I get the feeling that I stepped into a cult meeting ;) Maybe it's different if you have trouble sleeping, but it seemed to be completely irrelevant to my sleep and I don't want my screen t

I am not too convinced. In my opinion the most impressive growth of any industry happened right after Gordon's "special century": the semiconductor industry.

Wireless transmission has been demonstrated by others before Tesla e.g. Heinrich Hertz. And I mean induction is arguably a form of wireless transmission which has been verified by Faraday in the 1830s. The problem is now as it was then that

I don't think the problem is that they cannot find anybody who can program assembly in general, but they use a very exotic, old architecture with very limited memory. So someone has to learn this specific architecture with apparently l

This is very true. The idea of visual programming has been around forever and there is nothing wrong with it inherently. It certainly hasn't quite delivered as expected. But even established visual programming environments (e.g. LabVie

Here is the thing, the cryptography is really not the weak part of a communication system. You really don't gain anything by using a one-time pad over something like AES-256 in any practical sense. You're only making the part of y

I think "infinite" was used in the engineering-sense of the word and not in the stricter mathematical-sense. For me, as an electrical engineer, infinity is often somewhere beyond 1 ms.
