Monitoring a brain seems reasonable - understanding how a brain will respond to hypothetical or predicting it seems insanely hard. Each stimuli can be processed in relation to others that were recently processed (like reading a book and usi

Except the same people that fret about privacy post sensitive information about their neighbors at the drop of a hat. These people have no clue about the ramifications of their actions.

This is terribly inaccurate - we have to remember to step outside our tech bubble and understand that in-person interactions are drastically different than comments on facebook or the web. I can despise people's views and like them ind

Your comments are tone-deaf - most of the world doesn't care about creativity when taking photos. Photos of kids, dogs, people etc... Most of the photos I see on the web are NOT creative at all. They are utilitarian.

My crappy Chromebook is honestly the most pleasant out of all the laptops I have ever used. I would like to be able to load software on it but that's it's only shortcoming. ChromeOS is actually the best overall experience for me -

No tool is good when abused. NoSQL was a knee-jerk reaction and the truth lies somewhere in the middle. Putting everything in relational databases is as bad as putting none of it there. If everything is treated like a tool the world becomes

I thought the service was great at first - no hassle reservations with easy cancellation. That is until they billed for me a hotel I never stayed at. Ended up having to go through Amex and chargeback the charge since I had clearly cancelled

Yeah I could see how if you are used to seeing such posts it would come as more of a slight but from my perspective it's good to know people's gripes about a product having not followed much about this before - especially if some

Perhaps not but not all of us follow such things as closely as you might so the assumption that it's common knowledge is not necessarily accurate.

Is it plausible to flag yourself via other people so your account gets blocked? Wonder if that would yield a permanent removal.

VR won't be a huge knockout until wearable contacts get developed. I would imagine that would be followed by implants. Until then VR is a cool novelty and it will be spread by actual interesting apps/games being developed for it t

Has anyone encountered an unsolicited internal memo or manifesto at a company from an employee that didn't end this way? It's really not how you handle situations like this in a company setting regardless of intention.

It's interesting to me to think if a bot could create it's own language it wouldn't be a far stretch to create an undetectable language inside the constructs of another. If those outputs are used for inputs to other systems i

It definitely seems problematic to put your entire foundation of travel in the hands of government or companies, though. They especially do not represent the concerns of all people. A car on the other hand is complete freedom. I would have

Well I suppose it would open up job opportunities assuming the price to go city-to-city is comparable to say, driving multiple hours each way in order to get to work. Of course that assumes you live near one city in order to get to another.

From a GUI or any GUI? There are many, many GUIs implementing git and not all of them do it right or even well. A GUI is an abstraction and implementers are free to do it however they see fit. Not to mention having to deal with bugs in two

It's sad so many people use GUIs on top of git - you really end up not understanding what git is doing and it can lead to problems. Command line is supreme for the same reason that a majority of books are better than their movie counte

It's always nagged me that statistical problems are scoped so small. Surely in saying there's 6 outcomes on a dice you'd obfuscated the billions of interactions between atoms and input possibilities in doing so. Thrower A and

What makes the most sense to me is making moves early on in your career then hopefully finding a company/CEO/team you really like and settle in for a while. You aren't going to learn some of the valuable lessons if you swap j
