There's really no reason to be concerned about that. I'd be significantly more worried(ie: actually worried) about a mishap with that gumstick cell, which looks like it could be(edit: probably is) a lipo.

I'm not a doctor, but I would hazard a guess that a child with leukemia would not be prescribed tamoxifen. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamoxifen

God I hate how people parrot that 10,000 hours rule. I doubt this study will do anything to stop those people though.

I've never listened to Beats, so I can't say first hand. However, the general sentiment from the audiophile community is that they are not terrible headphones, but you can get much much better for your money. Especially if you wan

There's no information about how they work in OP's link, but the manufacturers site explains it(although I still found it a little difficult to grasp). Basically, they cut out some parts of the spectrum where the cones in a colour

OK, but my current build of Chromium also has the subdomain in black, leaving it susceptible to the trick described in the article. The main point is that there are ways of going about this without having to kill the URL bar.

Firefox solves this rather elegantly by making the subdomain and the part after the domain light grey, with the actual root domain in black. The URL is intact, and the root domain stands out clearly.

My understanding of bitcoin could be wrong here, but I'm pretty sure that would be physically impossible. I think you would need the private key to make the transaction, and only then would >51% of the miners be able to accept the t

If you're sitting down to have coffee with a friend, it's the difference between a camera watching over you from afar and having a camera essentially in the middle of the conversation. A pretty big difference if you ask me.

I wonder why they wouldn't just set up their own crowdfunding page for this project. Surely the effort would be worth $1,280,000.
