Just imagine you know nothing about the US except what you see in movies. Do you see a lot of poor people? There obviously are movies and TV which show a much more "real" version of the world. But the most popular TV and movies tend to show

I suppose one good way to sequester carbon is to plant trees then cut them down at maturity and build durable buildings out of them Or dump the trunks into any oxygen starved bog. Or ship them to the northern parts of the world and bury t

If you are a good programmer you ought to know math and statistic. I would suggest trying to learn biology or chemistry like anyone going for a degree in either or both. Look into what books and other publications they read. Or just go back

You seem to be getting down-voted. Maybe it's the harsh tone on what they should not focus on. But I agree with your second point. I've noticed a decline in Google's search result quality. I suppose a large part of that is SEO. Perhaps DDG

No doubt it is a touching story. That was my reaction to it as well. But when you read hyperbovine's point, and think about it... it is also true. So touching story yes, but normal human behavior - yes.

I'm guessing it's the combination of firehose of capital and huge, densely packed population. And due to the computing needs of wallstreet there are quite a few skilled programmers around. Basically $ + hackers.

This story is absolutely crazy. I am having serious trouble taking it at face value. But lets say the article is correct, it sounds like a root kit and they don't know how to remove it properly.

The point is innovation. It may be nothing more the neat or cool today, but who know what it could be in the far future? And how can we find out but by starting with this cool toy? One fun step at a time!

The last paragraph of that article is prophetic. Large regulators almost never shrink, or become smarter, or more efficient. At best they tend to grow very, very slowly - at best. We (high regulation) are going to experience many fewer unwa

The potential that we could one day share exactly what we see in our imagination is so awesome, it's almost hard to imagine it! (Irony not really intended) And what about "uploading" yourself to a computer. What happens if one day we can

In our field studies of sit-stand workstations we have found little evidence of widespread benefits and users only stand for very short-periods (15 minutes or less total per day). Other studies have found that the use of sit-stand stations
