How hard is it to get Glass right now?

It would. You could access it by boat too.

Huh. Wouldn't have expected Cogeco to be that good, but I suppose it isn't surprising that it is as bad as Rogers or Bell.

So going forward Facebook endless buys companies to try and prop up its user base? I suppose that could work to some extent, since Facebook knows how to monetize.

Glad I took computer engineering in an ECE department. Although I'm not really that surprised at these results as let's face it, the centre of electronics hasn't been the US for some time.

With the Canadian dollar going back down against the US dollar labour is even cheaper. It's annoying as a worker that salaries for IT in Canada lag the US, but good for companies.

Well as a research scientist at a face recognition company (Cognitec Systems)that's been around a long time, I would say that one legitimate use of face recognition software has been for driver's licenses applications for the indi

As a McMaster engineer, that was cool to see the Iron Ring clock on that page. I knew it existed, but forgot about it until I clicked.

Yeah in a way they are just doing A/B testing and getting a more profitable result.

That's pretty much it. A great example of people wanting to do something and think of the children all rolled into one.

It's interesting that Canadians are moving as much as ever. But then Alberta looms considerably larger for Canada than North Dakota does for the US.

How does the mother's body know the sex of the child? Is it detected somehow during the pregnancy and if so where is this information kept?

by drpgq 13y ago
That's pretty much an impossible task.

So was the low fat recommendations by the health establishment one of the more epic failures in human history?

Increased use of fracking technology. These wells do tend to produce a lot initially and then rapidly drop off compared to conventional wells so where Texas will be in five years is an interesting question.

I wish Oildrum.com was still around. They would probably point out that these gains aren't that sustainable as the wells have relatively large drop off rates.

I'm never really been a fan of Farhad Manjoo's writing when he was at Slate and now he's jumped to WSJ. Hopefully his replacement at Slate is better.

As a CFL fan, I'm wondering how these approaches would work up in Canada. It does seem that most CFL teams go on 3rd and one (easier since the defence has to give up a yard from the ball unlike US football) now, even in their own end.

I've had problems with Apple maps in Ontario too. I'm wondering if the performance versus Google Maps in Canada is different than the US.

How long until Blackberry flames out completely? I used to think that they had technology that was worth saving, but this is pretty much Nortel 2.0 now.

As an Ontarian this is a little sad, although I'm sure there's places in the US where the same thing happens. Certainly though I think companies should think of setting up engineering locations in KW. You can get quality people fo

Tuition is $12000 now? I graduated from Mac in comp eng in 1996 and I think it was getting to around $3000 then. Definitely worth it, but if you told me at the time I would have thought $12000 was crazy. I graduated with no debt though.
