I agree with your point that legalizing drugs is a good way to attack organized crime and to be able to focus on treating addicts instead of criminalizing them. I strongly disagree however with your first point, 'Addiction is a symptom

Wow, what about Html5, ES6 and Ajax? Sure you can ignore those new technologies and keep on building your website in PHP and HTML4. But nowadays most customers want more than a simple form based website. In 2016, chances are that your websi

I'm confused. As far as I know WhatsApp does not archive any messages on its servers. Messages are only kept there temporarily until they are delivered to the recipient and then they are deleted. This is also what WhatsApp states in it

In general it is not a good idea to grow vegetables or fruit in urban area's. The pollution from car exhaust gasses makes the crops unhealthy to eat. Because all the fuss about insecticides and other chemical detergents in the bio indu

But spectral gaps do occur in nature. Does that mean that even though it is impossible to compute if a spectral gap will occur or not, we could just observe such a system in nature and that way we could build a computer which would compute

Yes, the article is already outdated. Most importantly, there have been elections again, and this time Erdogan's AKP did gain an absolute majority. Which will enable them to fulfill their plans for a strong presidential state with Erdo

Yes, HSA was designed as a solution for these problems. It looks like a good solution, however as far as I know there is not any hardware platform implementing the HSA standards yet. Also Intel is unfortunately not part of the HSA Alliance.

I find the article a bit overoptimistic about the future and applicability of heterogenous computing. The problem with delegating tasks to GPGPU's is, that GPGPU cores can do only a very limited subset of what a CPU can do. First of al

Yes it must be wrong, and that's what the whole article is about. We know that gravity can't be so important on small scales because the universe would fall apart if that would be the case. However, our current theories of physics

Point 1 is correct, the selling of bonds by China will have the effect that their prices will drop. That's the law of supply and demand in action. Point 2 will probably also happen; but only up to a limited amount, because: Point 3, an

I agree with all Ironchef's points. I was diagnosed with ADD when I was over 40 already and only by coincident, because my daughter had it too. I was able to finish high school but university (CS) turned out too much of a stretch, I ba

How is this propaganda? It seems to me that the article is just listing facts. These facts show a not very positive side of the Euro, but does that make the article propaganda? Also, the article is not about Greece. It's about Finland

The infrastructure for bikers in Holland is not always as brilliant as the writer is suggesting. I'm living in Amsterdam and I would say that it's equally dangerous to bike here as it is in London: Pretty 'random' bike p

What a misleading title. First of all the title suggests that all supercivilizations build Dyson spheres, so that the absence of Dyson spheres implies the absence of any supercivilization. But in the article itself we can already find scen
