Sure one question; Do you think you're little rant is more important to them than guarding their IP and controlling the release of their products? Because it isn't. And I can't seriously believe you are telling HTC to apologi

So Latin America is at war with the US? And the Russian migration to Crimea is just a "war" technique carried on from Tsar Nicolas to Putin over the course of 150 years and multiple revolutions. How much clearer do I see these thi

The first few paragraphs really overdramatize it. It makes it sound like the internet would completely cease to exist if something happened to the root DNS servers. It was so cheesy I just couldn't read anymore after that.

Not necessarily. You can donate to environmental causes, social causes, educational institutions, disease/health research, etc. I don't have any exact data, but a lot of charitable donations aren't focused on helping the poor

I think you're right about a lot of things in this post, but the one thing I disagree with is that internet traffic is going to continually follow an exponential growth curve. The main driver behind increased internet traffic is the mi

Presumably. Besides if all we do is sit around taking a happy drug, we'd stop reproducing. We wouldn't need the Hoover Dam or a new virus to wipe us out.

If you can't discover #2 without drugs... I don't know if you're really understanding anything.

Exactly. I can sort of see what the parent comments mean, but having read and watched a lot of Adam's work I was able to follow along perfectly. Even read it in his voice. His segues weren't all perfectly relevant this time, but i

Thank you, I couldn't believe there wasn't a quoted doctor somewhere in the article bringing up this point. I'm not overweight, but I know I don't get quite enough exercise right now either. My blood pressure and cholest

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. Fruits and Vegetables are mostly carbs (except for the rare ones like avacados) just like whole grains. Presumably if you were to cut out all carbs they would be on the chopping block too.

I'm not posting this as a disagreement to anything you've said, but if everyone on that list decided to drop carbs for protein/fat, there wouldn't be enough food for everyone. That's to say, before we can really cut

I doubt they really see this as an espionage threat, even though that's what they'll spin it as. More like a threat to the advantage of our system having dominance. Probably means the Russians are right to be concerned about our m

Because there is probably a lot of overlap between those who think Youtube comments are terrible and those who post terrible Youtube comments. People might slag it in public, but I think a lot of people secretly enjoy leaving abusive and tr

It looks like that data comes from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. I'm going to go ahead and guess that they don't include undocumented workers. A lot of those construction jobs are probably only looking at union work. The author

Haven't seen that one, but the first thing that popped into my head was "What about a movie like Moon?" I mean there was really just the one main character, and I suppose he talked to his wife and daughter who were both named

That infographic is very confusing and misleading. They lined the numbers up as if they should equal out to the net income at the bottom. They don't. The 2.3 million funding doesn't count towards net income. I'm guessing that

It seems like they tried to dumb down certain words like "equation" into "number sentence", but only succeeded in making it confusing and ridiculous. And on top of that these are problem solving questions introduced way

But can we still trust Certificate Authorities at this point? If HTTPS was widely adopted, that would just give the NSA a new point of attack. CAs have already been compromised, and there are probably plenty that have handed over keys to th

The pretension in the bitcoin community is starting to really wear on me. Maybe it's just me, but I can hardly read through a lot of these articles, it comes off like propaganda. Possibly the greatest innovation of our time? I suppose

I'm far from an electrical expert, but I don't understand how this will save power for the majority of people. Won't we just be converting from AC to DC one step further up the electrical chain? It's not like the power c

Well I'd think that Russia is rather unique in that their power structure semi-collapsed during the 90's and during the chaos of America trying to turn the country to capitalism there were some who were able to jump into the power

I don't know, I think the point of the article was to show that the uber-wealthy of America is more of a meritocracy than most think. While that's somewhat true, the fact remains that almost all of the people on that list might no

I'm curious how long a kid could use one of these before needing to go get a new impression/print. Any dentists out there have a good estimate? I imagine it would only last them like 6 months at best. I can't see putting a ki

That's a bad use of statistics. There are significantly less wealthy people than poor people, so any single instance is going to be much more likely to be perpetrated by a person from a poor background. That doesn't prove that peo

I could be wrong, but I believe you can only play sections of it at a time. I don't think you'd be allowed to play a whole song and just display words critiquing it.
