Interesting. Can’t think of any faults in your logic! Are you actively working on this?

What kinds of things do you think has to change with game engines? Sharding would have to happen to handle geographic distance between people, wouldn't it? I’m curious to hear your thoughts.

What would motivate people? I think healthcare, as in your example, would actually see an influx of people motivated to help others. Not everyone is lazy and would do nothing. Plenty of people work in healthcare today for less money than th

Like, this kind of thing? https://voxon.co/ I had to Google it, but since I've recently been diving into volumetric video, the words made me curious. How's it going? Any particular area you're working on?

He was clearly a smart person. I do wonder though, if the reason we won’t see his likes again is because he was truly a one-off, or that his particular environment enabled him to show his excellence. I’ve been reading “The Idea Factory”, ab

Are there any good guides anywhere you'd recommend for hardware startups - and how to reduce this $30K upfront cost? That is a lot of money.

That rings true for me, but with a slight adjustment; once you have fill your brain with knowledge you can then condense it to the simplest model, from which the rest can be derived if needed again.

You could rent clothes for a day... Wake up. Clothes have been delivered overnight. Put them on, wear for the day. At the end of the day, put them in a box outside wherever you're staying the night. That seems like a feasible thing to

If you're worried about the BBC running on AWS, how do you feel about government departments with more sensitive data, like the Home Office, and HMRC, using it?

She probably complained earlier, but couldn't hear her over all the noise!

Yeah, I agree - it looks good, but it is Facebook :) The auto-following is a pretty neat feature though! I might try and pick one up to play around with when they're back in stock. The real sticking point for me, apart from the lack of

I've been struggling to find time, but when I do I've been trying to get a good family-room video chat setup going. Ideally, Apple would just release a FaceTime-compatible camera I can plug into my TV... but until then, I'm w

This is the first I've heard of it, so thanks for the tip. I'll be reading all of https://matrix.org tonight!

Whilst its great that people are iterating on existing products out there, I feel slightly sad that we just have a load of "alternatives" that don't play nicely with each other. It would be much nicer if I could use FaceTime,

London is about to experience two things: Brexit, and the private sector reform of IR35 legislation (for contract work). Both will affect the job market there. Arguably the latter will be felt worse in the coming months, as Brexit has alrea

It would be interesting to know which bits would be out-of-scope if we tried to build the Young Lady's Illustrated Primer right now. The nanobots binding to a single-child, definitely... and the audio dictation from real actors, probab

I'll let you know if I ever get around to it! I was presuming the legal office address was going to be their accountant's address too. However, if you get a name from Companies House, you might be able to find a website, and then

I like stuff like this :) Did you consider automating it at all though? I've been considering using Companies House data, and a web-scraper, to find tech companies in my local area.

Last year, I had about 7-8 long weekends, or short breaks (maybe 3 days max). I felt a bit depressed when I realised that I never had a whole week off though (apart from over xmas). That was in a London, UK startup. This year, I'm goin
