Marijuana is a drug that encourages people to be less political active(the "laziness" effect) . I would think governments would like such a thing in politically unstable times.

Technically, there are ways to prevent some of the harms of marijuana: Using e-cigarettes and using marijuana strains who mostly contain CBD(which generally has positive effects) and little THC(which creates feelings of paranoia and might h

There could be an ASIC for that. There's a new memory interface that works at 10 TB/sec with 16GB memory[1].Currently there's no cpu/gpu architecture in planning that's even close to needing that memory bandwidth, a

assuming exchanging bitcoin with usd becomes illegal with big enough penalties for both sides, what value would a decentralized exchange have, except for illegal businesses?

If you really want secure , TextSecure is the best in that regard - according to crypto guys.

Bitcoin is not ready to be marketed to and trusted by the general population as a general currency, since it's so unstable, while i've seen ideas on how to solve this, they kill the currency's appeal as an investment tool, wh

Why is it so hard ? At least in math, spotting areas of difficulty for students based on data on previous exercises and data from other students does seem possible.

Knewton.com claims it spots student weaknesses and adapts to it. And since it can offer full attention for each student it can offer better performance than teachers. What do you mean by being a guide ?

Google's famous experiment did something similar: it offered the machine plenty of content(from youtube) and the machine on it's own discovered the category "cat", and others.

You can do it with cloud VM's , but the problem is the startup time for a windows VM. The best i know of is ~400 seconds[1]. On the other hand, desktone(acquired by VMware) claims it can boot in 60 seconds[2], which might work for this

Somehow that doesn't work this way. In israel monopolies and price gouging of food is pretty common(not 100X, but maybe 2x), and i haven't seen no violent acts.

Reading application notes can be helpful . They hold plenty of knowledge and in many cases they are described in a less formal more intuitive way.

But valve is doomed because of linux. MS don't have this problem. They could easily merge xbox + windows on a steam like platform if they wanted to .

Why should MS invest in hardware, when PC's offer better hardware, run the windows store to share profit with MS and have good enough DRM(as steam shows, and might even be improved by working with pc manufacturers) ? Most likely in the

This medium works pretty well for comedy, are there sites/channels for such stuff ?

Interesting. With the new intel processors you could get a $250 decent steam box. Amazon can get it for less,and than subsidize it some more and get it to a good price with a lot of really attractive content. Still all signs point to androi

One interesting part of the story is amazon having a sub $300 console that competes directly with Sony and Microsoft. My guess about that that it would be: (a) a console financed by ads or amazon product sales on the tv (b)A weaker console

Regarding VR: Valve claims that pc's are a better fit to VR and they've done some serious research on VR. I'm taking it on face value(maybe i shouldn't ?). Cloud gaming is when games are run on a server and streamed to y
