Sure, but on the other hand, they're giving Adria exactly what she needed to get out of this one stronger: a way to claim to be the victim of the Internet Hate Machine.

Interesting. As a Quebecois, I can attest to the fact that we often seem castrated on sexual subjects, and europeans are seen as more casual. Quebecois girls are often seen as "easy prey" to europeans, as they are not used to be around men

The people behind Press, the best Google Reader app on Android, are apparently working on finding another place to host its content, but they have no webapp for now. Feedly has a good Android app and webapp, but it's more of a Flipboard typ

The article doesn't say hard work doesn't work. But the study it describes shows that how and when that hard work is put in makes the difference between the elite and the "merely" successful.

You and I are very similar. I wouldn't say that I've got ADD, but I did fall into depression while in college, and have the same difficulty with managing any kind of long-term work or commitment. It also affects my personal finances; unless

I have a very similar disposition to the person you are replying to. At 20, I ditched college because I was unable to deal with school work. Considering the state I was in then, this was one of the best decisions of my life. I was pretty lu

It depends; 3D printing can be optimal for goods that are built to order (where having a mold for a one-off custom order would be a waste).

If it's done correctly, such devices could be the stupidest thing you could try to steal. For instance, it could buffer constantly (if it doesn't already, I'm not too sure) the last 5 or 10 seconds of video. If it detects the device has bee

As someone with a very dominant "inner voice", I have to say that, at least to me, it is exactly as having a voice echoing in my head, constantly. More precisely, I happen to think exclusively in dialogues. I imagine talking to a person, an

I wonder if he's aware of how very FRENCH his first name is.

It's a very formal salutation. Its inclusion in an otherwise informal message is very sarcastic, and most native french speakers would take it as such. That's actually what the minister did in his reply.

The Google Glass device probably uses the same voice recognition as Android. Android is not in beta anymore, yet its voice recognition fails pretty bad on anything other than English. Google Now is almost entirely useless unless your device

Yeah, but that's different. Just because it's based on additive manufacturing techniques doesn't mean that it's even close to being the same kind of machine as a Reprap or Makerbot. While they rarely outright lie, what mainstream tech news

It's true that the mainstream media has been overhyping this technology, and some of the mainstream tech media as well (Wired, for instance). From the way everything becomes "3D printing" in the news, you'd think that a 500$ reprap is a few

For instance; I play Guild Wars 2. If I die, I lose a little bit of in-game cash from having to repair my armor after restarting (less cash than I can make in 5 minutes), and will possibly have to have to trek a couple of minutes back to wh
