I love looking at photographs but have never really found photography to be something that I wanted to pick up and learn. I think this just changed. that. It's one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. And love the fact that stuff li

TC article keeps referring to revenue and net income as compared to a year ago which was a notoriously bad year for the travel industry. So these growth numbers don't really mean anything. Would be really interesting to see where Kayak stan

I just read Paul's essay in Hackers and Painters on his spam filters using Bayesian probability of words in the message. Could something like that work on trolls? The body's corpus would be only replies marked with a certain flag?

Not to add to a bevy of positive reviews for Lenovo, but the quality of these laptops is just so far above the rest. And I found driver support for them to be excellent with Ubuntu. Pretty much everything worked out of the box. My T30 recen

Jess being in for the long haul doesn't necessarily mean investors are in for the long haul. They can get bought out in subsequent rounds and there's always the option of an IPO. Intuit is itself a nearly 30 year company (1983) and I highly
