It is not just mobile that has data caps either. Sure the caps are a lot higher than mobile caps of a few gigs but even 150-300 GB caps are pretty small. At the highest bit rate, 1 hour of Netflix video is about 3.1 GB. Now add in the fact

Yeah, this launch has been delayed and rescheduled over and over again for various reasons. Too many to count actually, the customer (NASA) will always be the primary concern and they did not even have to allow Spacex to run these tests whi

Whatever kickstarter was meant to be it is clearly being used for nothing more than preorders far in advance and you don't even have a guarantee you will ever get the product you preorder. In exchange for that risk and tieing up your m

This is just from what I have read on the internet, I am not by any means an expert. As far as I know, graphene is just as good or a little bit better than currently producible carbon nanotubes. There are a few other materials out there suc

This is not an argument for software patents but it is not necessary to actually read the patents yourself for you to benefit from the knowledge they provide. You could read about an patented algorithm in a wikipedia article, a blog, or in

Why wouldn't it be? It is still streaming and it will start playing the video soon after you hit the play button instead of downloading the entire video first. The only difference is that it will be caching the download for a certain p

This is pretty accurate, I would not have commented at all in here until I read this and just wanted to back you up on this point. I read these type of threads on HN constantly and every time I walk away absolutely disgusted with what I see

Well they could just use the number of actual cells there are in a battery pack which I think is 7k. So that is 3.5 billion battery cells per year. I think 500k cars is much better to understand though.
