A curious footnote: Sam Quinones argues that P2P meth is part of the explanation for the proliferation of tents in homeless encampments, because it causes users withdraw socially in ways that earlier meth didn't. This is what he means

A tilt UI is ridiculous. In many environments, there will be horrible glare at many angles due to overhead light sources. If you want to solve the finger-in-front-of-the-screen problem, put a capacitive touchpad on the back.

The data is persistent, but the beacons only transmit for 30 days or so.

To minimize noise and visual pollution, it would be better for these drones to fly low, along existing roads to take advantage of existing noise abatement measures (e.g. noise barriers walls, berms, roadside vegetation, etc.)

If only there were a series of mirrors, each N light-years away, you could blast a one-time pad out to the mirror of your choice and then announce the date the reflection is expected to arrive.

If you are interested in marketplaces for online therapy, have a look at Ingenio[1], which has been in this space for a while. Ingenio was acquired in 2007 by AT&T [2], supposedly for its patent portfolio, but it continues to operate.

Very nice, especially for NYC, which doesn't (yet?) have a culture of respecting honorable failures.

Pure genius! Just one thing, anyone upgrading from an old mercury switch thermostat will be left with a mercury waste disposal problem. Properly disposing of these can be a real hassle and some not-so-environmentally responsible customers

Your reply illustrates exactly how it has failed. You use it only to catch up with family...every weekend. These are the people for whom we do not bother putting on makeup or even our clothes sometimes. Depending on demographics, per capi

The production value is very high. FB Open Graph Protocol meta tag found in source: <meta property="og:type" content="tv_show"/> Perhaps it's a viral media stunt to promo a new TV show.

Another corollary is that we need better tools for lying. Prismatic identity management require that you can manage the persona on each facet and lie about the occluded personas. One of the killer features of the telephone that is often o

Having received some stiff but fair criticism here for this post, I’ve updated it to clarify and summarize a few points: 1. Apple is not a fashion company. Yet the value of their brand is clearly not just about utility. Apple’s products h

Apple is certainly not a jewelry company. I am a huge fan of Apple's design chops and their ability to make the "world's most intuitive technology". And yet, their products have been so good lately, so sexy, so "magical", that they inspire
