The headline is incorrect. The Telegraph article says that Elon Musk's potential payout is $70 billion, not $7 billion. The New York Times article ( https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/23/business/dealboo

I'm particularly fond of "Secrets of Synthesis". It gives you some idea of the difficulties she had to overcome to create this amazing music using such early versions of the hardware.

As much as I admire Turing (I've often wondered what our world would be like if he hadn't died as young as he did), I've never been that convinced of the value of the Turing Test. Given a choice between 1) software that can c

As I was reading this I was thinking "why not do it with Raspberry Pi Zeros, set up for mesh networking", like the OLPC " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Laptop_per_Child" . It would significantly r

I don't quite understand why this comment got downvoted. I thought the information in the article could have been presented in a MUCH more concise way, (and certainly less vertigo inducing).

The search box in Firefox has a pulldown menu that lets me choose from 8 different search engines, including Google, Yahoo, Bing, DuckDuckGo, and others. My default is set to DuckDuckGo because I'd rather not be tracked, but if I think

The title is a little bit mis-leading. The last line in the article: “But the danger is this would give people an incentive to go the SEC rather than to someone in their company. That’s the bad news. Every company wants people to report int

I don't think creating a government monopoly is the solution to the problem. I think there needs to be more competition rather than less. I think a good first step would be to remove the current barriers to local municipalities setting

It seems to work. This same blog post was listed on HN two days ago. It got one upvote (might have been mine, I'm a sucker for articles on art, however obscure). The re-post has gotten 88 votes in seven hours.

Some of the links appear to be broken; i.e. they take you to books different than the titles listed. Clicking on "The Psychology of Art by Lev Vygotsky" takes you to the Amazon page for "Economics: analysis, issues, and polic

My favorite: "Neuromancer" by William Gibson. A close second: "Accelerando" by Charles Stross. (I met Charles Stross once. He told me that "Accelerando" was not his favorite of the books he's written.)
