For every positive story about being an airline pilot you can find one warning to stay far away. I have a CPMEL/IA and graduated Riddle (and even did a stint as ATC) but have switched to software engineering. The grass is not always gr

I have some experience with Ketamine ... the one I can share is when the hospital administered it via IV to put my dislocated shoulder back in place. It was wild and would certainly NOT be my choice for a sedative in that situation. It hit

Boeing should face some major fines for this, and additional regulation is going to be needed to make sure this doesn't happen in the future. This all seems to come down to the fact they wanted to avoid having to retrain pilots ($$$),

I was the author of MP3 Fiend, which was doing really well back in 1999 (CNET 5-star Editor's Choice). Then Napster came along. While I appreciate that its 1999 interface was just as ugly as mine, what I didn't have was P2P. And

We are conscious (at least I am, let's leave out solipsism for a minute). Our minds are the universe, they are not separate from it. Hence the universe is conscious via our minds. Individual little pieces of the universe are becoming

I agree this was rough but things need to be taken into context with this in my opinion. Given their small "market share", it would seem right to remove a major burden to rapid development (the old extension format, XPI) in favor

Serious question ... can anyone explain to me why tech needs to be squeezed together in these hyper-expensive cities in the US? I don't buy the argument about needing to be close to others ... we are in a connected, high-speed world wh

I'm not supporting the Windows-10 style telemetry (I have it turned off) but I don't think this is about money. Let's take a hypothetical example of where you assign a given user a random ID, based on something (machine ID).
