This was also the foundation for Summly. The problem is that it is flawed. It doesn't take in to account emotion, or emphasis. What is the most important sentence in this: Drakaal is a poopy head. He often posts to hackernews and call

I disagree with the "Know what you don't know". Building a billion dollar company is about knowing what others don't know. If it were simply a matter of knowing what others don't someone would have already beat you

God didn't come. New testament says he sent his son. God supposedly walked with Noah's Grandfather, much better "biblical proof" especially since old testament has more acceptance on earth than the new testament. Your ph

Not even close. Intelligent design requires another proof of the origin of a creator. Or a proof the design changed at some point. Or a visit by the guy. Multiverse only requires a proof of Matter/Antimatter interaction. If matter can

So are we to "Free Ross" because he was a great guy who had people killed? Ran a site dedicating to breaking laws? What thing are we supposed to be sad he got busted for? My expectation is if he hadn't tried to have someone k

No one knows why.... Obesity is up. As we move away from a labor economy fewer people work on farms and factory, we eat the same number of calories, or more, and do less. More women are in the work place, and that's stressful... Job re

Most of the money on Youtube is from content providers who are paid by Google. (Like me) Twitter doesn't have revenue to share. Without revenue to share people (like me) aren't going to move to Twitter for video. Vevo isn't m

I used to do reputation management. I used to to "Press Shaping". I used to be a cause of fake science. Not quite this same way, but in a lot of ways worse. My fake numbers would end up in WSJ, NYT, Wired, and other places reporte

You can "shotgun" connections but hardwired and wifi usually isn't a win since the wifi will be more error prone and higher latency than the wired. So if you have both you should probably just do the wired.

Trust Microsoft before you trust Google. Microsoft never sold your data to advertisers. Google will sell me all of the search data for a user. That includes "directions" so I can tell what household. Google is evil.

His sale didn't change the price. What it changed was how much the company could raise. Which is why it is civil not criminal. By selling he limited how much of the company was available to the public, and sold to all those who would w
