Can anyone confirm what is driving this larger screen war? I know when LTE was rolling out manufacturers needed space for larger batteries but couldn't make the phones thicker due to market backlash so bigger screens began to trend. No

Typically any form of population growth can be modeled as exponential. Any type of percentage growth rate is already an exponential since P=P(0)*e^rt in the most simple case. The main limitations on this would be the carrying capacity of th

What you described is not redundancy. In your situation if 1 of the 2 data centers went down you would still have a blackout somewhere. In a truly redundant setup the load would be shifted to the redundant center with minimal interruption t

If anyone has any statistics on this I'd like to see them. Obviously there are cases when warrants are misused but I am still of the belief that overall the government does not act with malice and overall does its work for legitimate r

This kinda sounds like dark fiber laid out during the first internet bubble. Maybe Google fiber is like that 2nd round of railway investors.

Efficiency is really the name of the game. Do you really want to have a massive 7L engine spinning at redline just to be able to reduce that down 1:10 for some good torque? I'd much rather just an engine with the RPM held at the "

I'd recommend a short video on your site showing what kind of workflow it promotes. I'm interested in the app looking at the screenshots but I'd like to see it in action before spending 2.99

There is a "self destruct" option to wipe the iPhone after 10 failed pass code attempts. It's not bulletproof against a bruit-force but it's something

I'm a mechanical engineer and I use 3D printing for countless things at work and occasionally in my own life but unless you are making things at home at least once a month it doesn't make sense to have your own and I think that is

It's fun but I can't seem to re-visit a "certification" I thought I understood how to steal money but I don't and can't go back. I also can't seem to get any missions so I'm just aimlessly hacking int

I'd have to say there is a good use case for textbooks in engineering. Go into any mechanical engineer or chemical engineers cubical and you will find that they all have many of their college textbooks. Textbook chapters are a way bett

I much prefer an email and password style login especially for new sites. I typically try a service with a burner email account, then I can easily walk away from it all without continuing to get email. Plus if you end up selling my address

Easier is relative here. If you have means to bootstrap or access to capital then yes it is but that's not always the case. Furthermore if you don't have any business connections relationships in the business getting into many ind

This isn't the right application for an action based camera. Opt for a consumer level SLR with HD video or really any handheld camcorder from the last 5 yrs to get the feature set you need.

While in undergrad I spent about 5 years working with carbon fiber in a motorsports setting. I did a lot of cutting and sanding without a mask. There were weeks I would blow my nose 3 days after working on a part and still find black specks

Not making any assumptions, just reading the OP. I was thinking more about employees than freelancers/contractors. In that case it's your business run it how you want and if your customers are willing to pay you're in luck! E

Is it typical for a digital nomad to still be paid a competitive SF salary? I'm assuming companies don't provide cost of living adjustment for telecommuters so I'm guessing base salary would be much less than 100k

While in school I spent 7 months in a co-op for a company that manufactured steel food cans. Although at the time I never challenged the need for circular cans I can say that manufacturing would be much more challenged for cube cans. Metal

The fact that the writer could even get a used system that had not been wiped by the previous owner is a huge attack vector. This coupled with the fact that employee SSN's were stored in plain text makes a huge incentive for anyone int

Sound is a very objective measurement so I won't go ahead and say that beats sounds "better" or "worse". However (I can't seem to find the link now) on many audiophile forums Beats have been measured to skew to
