I disagree with who says that it is no different than linkedin. It hits a completely different niche with a different goal. Linkedin exists mainly to highlight work experience and academic background, with the goal to connect job seekers t

Don't worry. Before you know it we'll also have DNA tracking. So you'll be easily distinguishable from your twin brother.

I am actually thinking on doing the opposite move. NYC is great If you earn a lot of money and don't mind spending it. Also everything that is a commodity elsewhere, in NYC is a luxury. (A car, washers and dryer, etc.). It's also unbelieva

I may be wrong, but I'm reasonably confident that Einstein did not do well in elementary school and while he was in school in Italy. He also failed his University admission exam: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/aso/databank/entries/bpeins.html

No, I refuse to take an IQ test as well. Not because I would feel afraid to have an IQ score associated with me. Rather because I think that the concept of an IQ score is rather silly and I question our overall ability to measure it via a

Exactly right. Did they actually compare students from same school districts but different income families? I would think that what is most likely is that good income family students (who can afford summer schools) probably go to better sc

I don't understand. Do you disagree with the author's points of view? Why is it not enlightening? The way I am reading this article, and it can be wrong, is as a by-and-large synthesis on the author's point of view on why US patent law is

You understand how currencies work, right? On one end of the trade there is a person that buys and the other a person that sells. Even if what you said were true (That bitcoin has mainly being flunctating upwards ), then the people sellin

So, this paper is not really demonstrating anything against the standard game theory applied to the prisoner's dilemma. In a single game, the proposition of the dilemma still holds true. The best solution is if both don't talk. In an itera

Well.. why not do it half client-side and half in the cloud? For example, why not build an pwd-management application which sits in the cloud. Have the application store in a secureDB in the cloud your encrypted list of passwords. These wo

I agree. Quite honestly what sane person would pay for the ability to use a social media website? What does facebook offer that is unique and worth paying for, other than a large user base? The moment that facebook starts charging their use

More than a full (unlikely) hack on Curiosity that would potentially allow to hijack it; I would be interested in finding out how feasiable direct signal de-cryption is. Specifically I can't immagine curiosity having too much of a sophistic

I don't understand how this would solve the problem that security questions are trying to solve. Basically, you just want something that you remember and/or infer easily in case you forget your password. If you use a passphrase as a salt to

I think the author's view on how Computer Scientists is a bit reductive. Not everything is an "optimization problem". While I believe it is true that a good CS major will seek to reduce inneficiencies throughout the company, there is also a
