I hope some policy makers in the government keep a watch on such threads. They will get an idea about the loss of taxes, that these remote would otherwise pay if they were to be employed in the US. Not to mention the social security and the

I have been testing out the iPad for development work and it's working out ok so far. I do have a separate keyboard and an ipad support and I mostly work on remote machines using server auditor ssh app. One advantage is the separation

Great points. To me, any act of creation or any act that aids in creation = work. Programming, gardening, reading, investing, polishing shoes - anything that makes you feel like you've done something. Rest is all consumption. Chill out

+1. If your finances are sorted out, it's good to take a break from work for 2-3 months and do absolutely nothing. What you once craved, 8 hours of sleep, hanging out with friends, traveling, spending time with family etc, once you exp

Well Mutual fund money is flowing into Uber and the likes. So, there will be some impact on public money. Agreed, it won't be as bad as the 99 bust.

One might even look at this matrix and realize that the word “kitty” is pretty closely related to “cat.” It's not clear to me, how this can be referred from the matrix. Here are the two rows cat 0 1 0 2 kitty 0 2 0 0

The same would apply to App Store reviews also then. Essentially the review system is broken.

I highly doubt that this kind of information hits public sources before the said phenomenon actually starts to occur. I mean Ron Paulson wouldn't have made $15 billion shorting real estate, if everyone in 2007 knew about the then impen

<rant> You won't believe how prevalent this is in India. You can hardly count people who'll take the full course of antibiotics. The general rhetoric is 'oh I'm fine' or the doctor is an ass, he always prescri

I wonder what the 'layers of decision making software' on top of Watson mean. Are these rule engines ?

I don't think there's any evidence. However, in public speaking, using filler words is seen as a negative, in a sense that you don't know your subject very well. In day to day communications, I don't see this as 'ro

I did catch an infection and was knocked out for a couple of weeks. Haven't had any issues after that. I'll watch out though. Thank you.

I have been on cold showers for almost a year now. Can't imagine going back to warm showers, even in the dead of the winter. The coldest shower I took was perhaps in Switzerland in December - I lasted for a couple of minutes or so in t

Glad am not the only one who faces this problem. Search on Google calendar is terrible. What I'd love is a Apple timeline like interface that is searchable by natural language. Wishful thinking :)

Lytro hasn't fizzled out. They have just shifted their focus from consumer cameras to high-end cinema cameras.

True. A real affordable EV will be in the price range of a Civic. Given that, I can't imagine the headroom for Tesla to grow. It's hard to quantify Tesla's growth beyond Model 3, like a PE multiple that can justify Tesla&#x27

You are assuming "The focus is on making something good, offering a good service" and "maximising shareholder value" are opposites. That need not be the case. Amazon is a classic example.

You'll get a completion certificate for free. What you won't get is an accredited certificate that you can show off on LinkedIn, to potential employers/investors etc.

I graduated in 1999, and that too in India. So imagine my situation :). I finished the Coursera ML class recently (though I had done some ML prior to that) and I really enjoyed the class. You should definitely aim to finish it. The assignme

One area that can be improved by startups without the need for enormous entitlement spending is food. I don't mean the radical notion of liquid food or pill popping (though that day might arrive sooner than later) or even manufactured

This applies more to shoes than clothes. It's ok to have a little bit of variance in clothing, but given how much kids run around, they need shoes/sandals that fit really well.

So, if the market shows that UI is what causes Amazon dearly, and that the market prefers a magic like messaging interface, how long will it take for Amazon to offer a magic like service at a price point that is affordable to everyone. Comp

Carpooling in private cars is very different from carpooling in self-driven cars. While you own the private cars, it's very reasonable to expect you not to share the ride with strangers or to occupy another's car. However, if it&#
