I have another idea to truly encrypt content. The software itself needs to have a primitive sort of "mind" where it "sees" the user, and interacts with the user on a daily basis and when it sees an authorized user to the system, the compute

Also, when I go in for brain surgury, I want a neurosurgeon who has learned to operate on brains by "just trying it out" and Learning from experience, rather than one who has spent long hours painstakingly going over the routines and outcom

It's really really big. What gets you is that it's really there, go outside and look up. All those stars, all that energy running down, without anything harnessing that energy. There it is, running down like a forest fire. What will it t

This rant reminds me of podcast 1.0.1 about "getting fired" of "this developer's life". http://thisdeveloperslife.com/ Getting fired is not that big a deal. Employers do everything in their power to make it a big deal. But the truth is,

Slap a computer screen on one, patch it in to a 3rd optic nerve that you install, and where do I sign? The blurring of man and machine begins here today, the bionic eye is just the beginning. I want a bionic GPS system as well.
