Wearing Glass is no different that wearing a POV camera. Communication still falls into the realm of everything that was possible pre-Glass. Now if the patient swallowed some nanobots that found their way to source of the problem and then G

If I read the article correctly, all he did was use Glass as a live-stream POV camera. How is this different than the pre-Glass era? I think what would be significant is if Glass were able to enhance his ability as a surgeon during the proc

I know setting the date of most of these events to the 4th of July is very symbolic, but is that really the best choice? That is the one day that Americans already gather in large numbers to celebrate. In DC alone the entire national mall a

This might be a simplistic view, but my fingerprint is a symbol of me which can be used to identify me. My DNA _is_ me, just the smallest piece of me that is in fact, me. What makes taking DNA any different than taking blood, or one of my f

It would be great to switch and use metric exclusively, but think of how cost prohibitive it would be. In the transportation industry alone you are talking about replacing all signage (speed limit signs, mile marker signs, distance to X sig

There is a difference between cost and value. The client valued your ability to solve their problem as equal to your daily rate. It shouldn't matter if it took you 1 hour or 8 hours, they are paying for a result, not for you to punch a cloc

It's even more infuriating when your bank tells you a vendor you did business with was compromised and they refuse to tell you who. And it gets worse when they issue you a brand new credit card with a new number because of the un-named comp

The real issue here is the queue of cars waiting to get on the freeway. Any street that crosses a major freeway and offers an onramp can be backed up for miles in both directions. Synchronized lights may help with purely street-level conges

With a $17,000+ price tag the person who can afford it will more than likely not have a practical use for it, but rather think of it as another "toy" in their collection. What may be the real test of how practical they are will be their ava

You got lucky 13 times in a row. It happens. And since you were only playing with "a couple hundred bucks" you were probably at a $5 or $10 limit table. The casino wasn't worried that you were going to break the bank, it's more likely you w

The second image in the rotator showed something I found interesting. Do drivers rate passengers as well as passengers rating drivers? What seems to be the name of the pickup at the bottom of the screen has a rating behind the name.

I've had an interest in setting up a course like this for a while now. I'm actually putting together a short survey right now to gather feedback and gauge interest. If I can find enough people and the format is right, I would make it happen

What would you be expecting for your $2-3K? One day, a weekend? Group sessions, one-on-one instruction or both? Would you travel to something like this or want it local? It's not too hard to weed out the pick up artists. They are usually no

How much would you pay? Let's say something that taught you how to effectively enter and leave conversations in a positive light, basic body language reading to gauge your audience's interest, and maybe 10 or so basic conversational tools?

This is ridiculous. I can put one in my cart but can't check out? If this supply constraint is artificial, it's doing a great job of pissing me off.

Since you should have been saving your answers for storage on the application page, why not auto-submit anyone who hasn't done so by the deadline and then allow edits after? You should be able to see who manually re-submits after the deadli

500lbs in batteries and a quick search shows each of his motors is 156lbs. Since the gas motor he took out weighed 326lbs, he's got a net gain of ≈ 480lbs. That's a lot to overcome.

So then how do you schedule them if they don't compete? Is this more of a "fill your spare capacity" setup or do they work certain shifts? Also, what is your average response time? Same day or scheduled in advance? I don't really mean to r
