Am I wrong in thinking this will shortly kill Adobe Connect, WebX, Chat Roulette, IRC, every other messenger platform out there?

My front-end framework is simply HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Why complicate my life? I do love flexbox, but I would rather simply code it by hand rather than have some tool/framework/precompiler do it for me.

Seems like it is optimizing a workflow to maximize the happiness of the developer, perhaps at the sacrifice of other things.

I can't fault the VCs for checking to see if there's fire when they see smoke. It's part of their job. I do think it's funny that they spent around $600 bucks and got way more attention than they would have if they bough

I was watching an industry spokesperson explain (falsely) that net neutrality forces some companies to fall under one set of regulations, and others to fall under a different set. Getting rid of net neutrality meant that all companies would

I like it. I was thinking "What if gas stations could charge you based in the car you drove, and asked car companies to pay these 'fees'?"

One of the problems with Net Neutrality is that techies (us) and the media have both had a hard time explaining it clearly. Meanwhile those opposed have been able to come up with analogies that while false and misleading, are easily underst

The question articles like this never get around to asking is: What would "fair" look like? The data is never going to be flat. That would mean the top earners and the lowest earners had identical incomes. Call that what you want

I've always found the tension between ivory tower AI and real application in games fascinating. To me, games seem like a great place to test theory in a mode that can be unsupervised and self-grading, while also representing real world

Congrats on your application. Sounds very useful. And thanks for the info. I worked years ago on a training program for EKGs and it seemed like a field ripe for application of ML and AI.

I agree. Just look up ai-expert Ray Kurzweil and his hedge fund FatKat. Boom.

Showing returns isn't the same as making a public offering. This article doesn't even claim that. Hedge fund managers do it on CNBC all the time without running afoul of the law.

I can't argue with your point or your analogy. The amount of capitalization needed however doesn't seem prohibitive as long as you are sure you have that slight, if inconsistent, edge. Options are made to slice and dice exactly th

I'm not saying it has to rank #1, I'm saying it has to move up any amount. Renaissance Technologies obviously is a good name to tout but they could have invested for reasons that don't apply to other investors, such as keepin

Notice I used the word ANY , not EVERY . If you can do better than a coin flip in ANY prediction, you can make money over time. I would assume the rational person with such predictive power would choose the relationship with the least c

Dear lord yes. I've been off Facebook for most of the year, and have noticed how many people have dropped Facebook like a rock after the election. I have to wonder if their stats are going to suffer as a result.
