This is extremely cool. I remember going to the observatory as a kid and looking at Andromeda through the telescopes. It's amazing to think we will be one with that galaxy someday, millions of years from now

There is nothing private about how 90% of internet companies make their money. Expecting otherwise in an industry that isn't geared towards privacy is naive. I wish the court would see it in a different light. But if you want to send a

Well this doesn't really come as a huge surprise. these brain training apps seem to target logical repetitive tasks that would only train your brain to be better at doing just that - logical repetitive tasks. I do however think it is v

I think people should be given a stark choice - either eat government provisioned rations, take public transport, and live in public housing (socialism) or contribute to a fluctuating capitalist economy and roll the dice a bit. Then likely

You really can never say in code we trust entirely, because we say the same thing about our state of the art encryption today that the Nazis said about enigma in WW2 "It would take more than every human lifetime combined to crack this

The big problem lies still in the fact that most electricity is generated from coal and nuclear. Every Tesla on the road today is effectively a coal powered car with the potential to be converted to green energy. Solar panels likely being t

Well it honestly depends what classifies a terrorism or spy case as such. I could see how this could be easily abused in many regards, but also how it could help someone do their job. Double edged sword really, but I do wish the people had

I will say it has a shot, it's not as risky as say buying a shady altcoin during a pump. But it sure as hell has the possibility of crapping out entirely.

We're gonna build a dome around the continental US and make the united nations pay for it!!

I really don't understand why SpaceX doesn't do the Moon. A Moon base relay is FAR more meaningful to our established presence in space, and a fallback location for global conflict.

People who think strong AI will cause a violent apocalypse are gravely mistaken. CRISPR gene editing is the eminent domain of conscious AI, and a conscious machine would seek to create designer organisms to inhabit other worlds as well as p

Well, if we would just put ethics aside and go down the road of reproductive cloning, we could have a clone army. And by the logic of Star Wars - Clones > Droids.

VR is going to be somewhat like the advent of the 3D television in 2010-ish. Every manufacturer will make one, few people will buy one, and the people who do will likely only use it on novelty occasions. VR is really only a stepping stone t

This ultimately ends with Vitalik receiving a subpoena from the feds on behalf of a U.S. based investor who loses and gets pissed. Then he either complies and builds a backdoor for Ethereum, or he gets banned from the U.S. has trouble going

Well, either we are going to see a Facebook exodus happen due to privacy concerns (unlikely) or now almost everyone is comfortable being watched 24/7 and the next wave of apps cough SNAPCHAT will learn to exploit people recording eve

I would not call tech industry a bubble by any means. However, since my work took me away from Silicon Valley - I have to say there are almost no startups that have really changed my life in any noticeable way. All I have watched happen is

Ouch. Part of me thinks the French government would allow this to happen due to them being non-compliant with that 'right to be forgotten' request.

I still really don't understand why people keep developing Tor over I2P - I2P is clearly the better protocol offering complete untraceable anonymity and a chance to secceed from the stigma of Tor...

Well most people aren't even aware of all the other stuff Snowden took and is effectively selling to the highest bidder (now the Russians) over time for asylum. I appreciate his intent, but he went about it in the wrong way. He doesn&#

Here's the thing, if you are a normal person - you aren't going to read a guide on something like this. I have a 1 sentence guide on this for the 'normal person' - If you wouldn't want your grandma to see it, just d

I'm a bit curious if the "any illegal drug" column includes LSD or hallucinogens. Part of me thinks most people have the common sense not to drive while on such a substance, part of me thinks there would be no way to gather d

Did something similar to this with a raspberry pi, a pair of 70's ray ban bullet hole shooter glasses and a spy cam a few years back. Just got a cam that let me ditch the pi, slim it down to a Google glass type size, and stream the vid

If I really gave a damn, had 1000 bucks to blow, and had no life I could go plant hidden microphones, pinhole video cameras, and more in just about every conceivable public place too. If anyone argued or brought me to court - I could demons
