Its not about how dim it is. Daylight is orders of magnitude brighter than any lightbulb out there and has different levels of color wavelengths. Dimming a screeen actually does the opposite of what you would get reading eink outdoors, ev

Its about time. Can't wait to get one. Hopefully it would only be like another 10 years before you can watch video on one of these.

RIP. Syd Mead was an inspiration for so many artists. I love the clean lines and crisp simplicity of the shapes he uses. It reminds me of design work by Dieter Rams, but for the entertainment industry.

I think for sure the rise of app and web economies have been the defining characteristic of this decade. They have had an unexpected monopoly on our attentions. From memes, to changes in consumer behavior, to social uprisings, to mass sho

If you're going to go through the effort of redesigning a faster layout, why not fix everything from the ground up? Why design a layout with key stagger still a property when we all know that it was a relic of technological limitation

It seems childish, but if you ever witnessed a bully use a small thing like chat color as a form of discrimination, you would realize even little decisions like this have huge implications on social development. We might not know what the

I didn't even know there were concentration camps in China. Thanks for sharing. If companies are going to shut out this sort of work in favor of free speech then we're headed for a dystopia.

YouTube was tricky for me too. Because so many tutorials are on youtube it’s hard to ban it. And you watch one it’s no longer blocked at least on that tab. Get “distract free tube” or something like that on chrome/Firefox. It gets rid

If you are struggling with social exclusion, and for no good reason, there is a manipulator in the ranks and for whatever reason the people in the group have no capacity to think for themselves. There are billions of people on this earth, m

When did tourism become so huge? I honestly don’t remember people talking about their trips and vacations much growing up, but I felt a sharp rise with the rise of social media. I knew of very few people who routinely went on crazy vacati

I think one problem is that people don't realize they could not only survive, but live healthy, satiated, and even build muscle on a vegetarian diet(without protein shakes etc, just regular grocery foods). I feel like if more people r

Yes but how many of them would donate a spare kidney for him if he really needed it. People risked their lives for each other. I’m not sure that it’s the same case with people who like your selfie.

Well if it’s on a publicly available blockchain, the difference is that the information on how much money is in circulation, how much is being created, is all open to the public and verifiable. The information on how much banks are holding

Oh man, I never expected you to respond. These images are much better on Flickr, I like how you can actually click links to the hot spots.

Thanks for sharing. This deserves more upvotes. And all the respect to Eric Fischer who is more likely to be the author.

Yeah I get you, the human eye works logarithmically so we can see in very dark spaces, but that means the light necessary to see a computer screen is a fraction of what comes from daylight. People were not meant to breath hvac air inside a

I have the first gen, which is nowhere near as fast as LCD. But looking at their videos it looks like they got the framerate to work at a much faster speed than mine which was leagues of improvement over a kindle. However, I'm confid

I use a Dasung Paperlike Pro to do work on occasionally. I love it. It was expensive but personally it was worth every penny. Nothing beats coding outdoors with natural light. Pretty much the only thing its good for is reading/writi

During high school, I played a lot of morrowind and thought it was cool to learn how to pick locks. I had already known how to break combination locks, and I already taught myself to open traditional pin and tumbler locks. I saw a number

This makes a lot of sense. High nit monitors, are extremely hot. (they’re basically light bulbs), and the hotter they get the shorter they last. In that case it makes a lot of sense to maximize airflow and heat dissipation, not just one or

No one who commented this far has read the article. Somehow this doesn’t surprise me, people only think of themselves. The thesis is that to counter the effects of unemployment on mental health, you only need one days worth of work. As in,

A different way to think about this is if you pulled an inelastic chain tight to the earth, and closed the loop you would have the starting condition. Then, standing where you are you cut the chain, grabbed an extra yard of the chain and sp

What you’re wrong about is the notion that markets dictate itself. Actually pretty much the entirety of America and possibly most of the rest of the developed world is wrong on this notion because the country and the rest of the world is so

This whole article makes me question that statement. I hear it all the time, but passive aggression is a very real tactic in a bloodless war.
