Indeed; by the same "security" logic, why not get rid of HTTP too then? (Or SMTP, for that matter?) The point of "organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful" is to do precisely th

As others have commented, lots of physics errors and misunderstandings in this article. The author, K.C. Cole, has no business explicating physics she doesn't understand to the public. Expected more from Quanta Magazine...

Accept your data. According to one PI, success depends more on the people doing a project than on the topic of study; some people make their project work no matter what the topic is. Others block their own way to success because they requi

My two cents (as someone a bit more familiar with this stuff): I don't think there is a single universal skill at play. Much like reading code, I think it depends on your familiarity with the specific 'programming language' i

Crudely, I guess you could sort of track the "Bayesian surprise" you get by reading a book by measuring changes in skin conductance --essentially tracking how many "frissons" you get while reading maybe? (I really don&#x

Bad performance isn't really a software design problem; it's an economics problem (ditto for security). Why do you say so?
