That data appears to be relative to the number of native apps in the app store, so that doesn't necessarily mean that moving towards non-native development is a misconception. In addition, many apps are not moving to non-native entirel

Does anyone have any solid basis for the degree to which this discrimination is happening (specifically scope and severity)? I'm curious to know if this is something that is impacting a large number of potential students in a significa

A fantastic article. One actionable example given for consumers was to turn of notifications/vibrations. Another was to move those subconsciously-addicting apps off your home screen. I'd be interested in seeing a more comprehensiv

I wonder what that could mean for us as humans. Is some degree of "strife" necessary in society for people to be happier? Perhaps our work to eliminate many of the more primal issues that affect us (the need to hunt, survive in th

I gave that out a try myself. While they certainly are cheaper than disposable or cartridge blades, I found that for the amount of time that went into a good shave I could get an even better one with disposable or cartridge blades. I read a

The article makes the argument that there is more CO2 in the atmosphere, thus a hotter atmosphere, thus the atmosphere can hold more water. Does that at all explain the increasingly frequent droughts? Could it be due to more water in the wa

I find it a bit odd that he doesn't mention actually eating the chicken itself at any point. He mentions selling the chickens for more nutritious food than just eggs... But isn't chicken meat alone pretty nutritious?

I think this will be very successful. The roll of storytelling in business is becoming increasingly important, especially for consumer companies targeting millenials. See: http://blog.hubspot.com/opinion/why-storytellin

So rather than fixing the problems that result in users messaging via the mobile web app instead of the messenger app, they're just going to "solve" the problem by forcing users to use the messenger app? This is why Facebook

I think it may be the case that we are 'done' at that point. There needs to be some inherent inequality and luck, otherwise we can't improve... It would be like evolution without the mutations. We couldn't evolve if it w

Huge fan of the millennium force. Has anyone tried the top thrill dragster at Cedar Point? Seems pretty epic, albeit very short.

An interesting thought-experiment to accompany this. Suppose that you are writing a program to create the best creature through evolution. One potential way of writing the program is to simply let evolution do its work and have the creature

I mean something simple, such as just using the usb itself or through social engineering to take data. If you can manage to load malware onto the computer, you can probably steal the data in a much easier way. It's also much more effic

This is amazing, I don't think I would have ever thought of that. Of course, it's efficacy is a bit mitigated in that if you could manage to get malware onto such a computer, then there are likely easier ways to exfiltrate the dat
