Tried the pens and love em. Bought a few boxes full of pens, as we don't have a Muji close by and am still insanely happy with them more than a year later. The Pens are a joy to write with. And I'm picky as hell when it comes to p

Well, it's politics. A lot of the big lenders were german banks. So it made sense for the german government to support more loans to Greece, because those were used to keep paying back german Banks. Grossly simplified, but that's

Could you explain with some details? I'd be quite interested in understanding what happened, and I imagine others would too.

Ah come on. Yosemite is not a stable, reliable OS? That's just hyperbole... Running 10.10.3 on half a dozen machines, mostly older ones, and it's stable, reliable and working just fine. MBPro's, Mac Mini's, MBAir, iMac.

Doesn't sound like it's about city planning. Nowadays you can simulate that quite well. No need to pluck down Billions. City planning with real buildings just doesn't make sense. To iterate solutions you need to be able to ch

Don't know if this is even more worrisome. FBI and Boeing denying any threat. Either the guy is/was delusional and his 15 min of fame (like mentioned below) blew up in his face, or the systems are vulnerable and it's being d

In Brasil, the nascent middle class consumes cares. It's a status symbol and a dream for many. It's a different culture. In the big cities (São Paulo, Rio, etc) the public transportation is miserable. Buses and Metro are overcrowd

3 MacBookPro's (2x15" and 1x13") seem all fine. Nothing out of the ordinary. Mac Mini's fine as well.

Thesis is gruesome work, at least to some extent. Your job hopefully will be something you enjoy. And having worked first in an office for a few years, you end up appreciating working remotely much more...

You're being overly harsh. TaskRabbit is about cleaning and handyman stuff, Rabbit is about programming jobs. Different areas, no chance to get the two confused. And calling a task-oriented service Rabbit, seems common sense, it&#x27

Still waiting for the Apple datacenter in the Swiss Alps. There are some de-militarized Bunkers available. And it's cold as it gets up at 3000m...

Astropad has a 7 day tryout. So, I've been using it to pretty great results. I like it. With Wifi it's actually laggy, but with the USB cable, it has been very fast. Pressure sensitivity isn't that important to me - depends

The whole heirloom argument doesn't ring right. I mean, sure, this happens and is part of the market. But I'd wager it's a small part. There are many watch-guys and rich people who buy 20, 30K watches because they can and lik

You do realize, that a nice luxury watch costs easily 20k, 30, 50k or even 100k. It's a whole other category. 20K definitely doesn't sound totaly out of the ballpark for a 18K Watch with 18K Gold bracelet.

Doing it for professional reasons aside, I do get why reading something (good/deep) for 100x might be very interesting. If you repeat the same word lot's of times, it starts to loose meaning to you after saying it 20x or 30 times

There are definitely lot's of movies, that show you something new (where you see something new?), each time you watch them. It's small details. Some new connection. Maybe the mood you're in changes the way you interpret a s

Seems like a lot of marketing talk. It's a mesh-network (so you need multiple units to make it work). Mesh is better then 'range-extenders' but slows down, as you add more nodes. Don't know if they're doing the mes

Reading the article, I thought this might be a UWB (Ultrawideband) device. But going through the tech specs, I'm not sure. It just might be, but it doesn't say in the specs. "...of a stepped-frequency continuous wave (SFCW) r

802.15 WPAN - It's kinda stalled for some time. And UWB really did get good press with some very promising features / performance back in the day. If I remember they ended up using it in some system for firefighters that can &#x2

Definitely. But it might make you more vulnerable to light - getting light into your night vision goggles will make you shortly blinded. With eyes altered due to drops or pills, it would make you vulnerable for the duration of the effect. G

Give us an update, when you start shipping internationally. I'm definitelty interested enough to have bought a shirt to try - if available.

Thanks for the Tip on Stanley's Parable, never heard of it. Sounds very interesting, will try the demo now. Thanks.

Oh boy. That's nice. Could you deliver to São Paulo, please? Pretty please :) But seriously, that's quite a great idea. If you can deliver in time, it would be supremely convenient. Reminds me of the milk bottles that used to be
