I don't know where he is getting his pricing. I can do an 8.5x11 400 page color perfect bound for a print cost of $16.31. Using a list of $30 and Amazon/B&N (ie, online retailer) distribution wholesale discount of 30% gives a

Disagree. As just one example, the Solvay conferences of the 1910s-20s. Much of QM was developed by informal discussions, both written and verbal. Likewise, most of the initial challenges to scientific papers/theories/experimenta

Adding to the many anecdotes here.. I had an orange tabby growing up in a quiet suburban neighborhood. Our property abutted a golf course. The cat was mostly an outdoor cat, coming and going as weather and food swayed it. Quite the hunter

If paper in question becomes fodder for the mainstream media (or at least the mainstream scientific media) then there is no reason why they should not have to defend their theory/arguments/speculations publicly in a less than form

At one time long ago I worked in IT before moving to another industry that was more who you know and personal rep (interviews were a formality). What sticks out to me here is the number of people who say they were 'escorted out'

Got it as well and it does look legit. They really should be saying under what circumstances the information was disclosed. Should I be preparing for an onslaught of spam?

For heroin specifically, I looked into usage rates a few years ago, unfortunately I can't find my notes so no sources here (and it is really hard to find such data). But from what I recall, usuage rates of heroin in the population in t

A "mere $0.75" in 1972 is worth $4.60 today, perhaps not quite the bargain the article implies.

After decades of driving shift I was forced by circumstances into Honda with auto. I still drive with my left hand on the wheel and right on the shift. Some of us really do prefer to drive stick.

Unlike Google and Apple, Microsoft really doesn't care what you run on their OS or do with their hardware. Though it is not quite 'freedom' in the OSS evangelical sense, I'll still take it any day over the other two, Ch

To some degree what you use is dependent upon what type of content it is. Is it purely text? Text and some images/graphics? Tables? Equations? A good starting point for primarily text or text+pics is whatever editor you like to use ev

AJ may be a pos but a fascist he is not. It would be helpful if you and the many others who use this term to open a dictionary and encyclopedia to learn what it really means and not what you think or want it to mean.

That is exactly why Google's choice of wording is so poor. Far better would be 'encrypted/not encrypted' as that is all https really is. Safe can have far to many meanings and I won't be at all surprised when Goog

I grew up in the 70s and 80s. Notice a few comments elsewhere about how skinny people on TV in that period looked. Yet, many, if not most, of the products available then are still on the market today. Even the really bad ones like.. Co

That is kind of frightening - why stop at school? Why not have Sweets Inspectors checking up on parents in their home? And talk about taking the fun out of any celebrations. Does Norway also ban fruit juice?

Given that Zillow home value 'estimates' are poor, often all over the map in areas with near idential homes, I would not take anyting they offer up with more than a grain of salt.

What would be the cost of launching a micro-sat into an orbit that could perhaps act as an intermediate link?

Perhaps I missed in the other comments, but is anyone else here shocked by the price tag? That is an outstanding amount of money to pay for Github, certainly a very large premium.

You are right, it would take a few more but my point was more that the amount of data is entirely within the scope of NSA et al. In fact, it was somewhat arbitrary to say two points a minute, reality is once every two minutes is enough to

So..300 mio connected devices, 2 bytes for location, some compression, 2 samples a minute -> 1 GB per min or about 1.5 TB per day. Thats easy storage for NSA, wonder how many years of data they have on everyone? Don't think for a m

Surprised the pop up doesn't say "agree to tracking and you'll be shown fewer and more relevant ads" and when they click decline "you will see 2x as many ads, are you sure?". Hardball!
