Imagine if it was a 100-years old, still functioning and yet to be released smartphone, with an HD video of the 1912 celebration. :) That would be so cool... Like in that movie, "Das Jesus Video". Anyway, as others said, it probably contai

The author also is very naive when he says "no more bus drivers, taxi drivers, limo drivers". It may happen eventually, but not before a few decades. There are a lot of power struggles and political interests that will make this happen in a

But when Windows 8 comes out, Chrome Frame will stop being a valid solution, at least for IE's "[Metro|Windows 8|Modern]-style UI" version.

Before doing anything, I think that you should talk to a lawyer because there are a lot of questions to be answered. Who owns the code? Are you free to open-source it or rebrand it? Did you have any kind of contract?What about your employme

Reading this story, its interesting how similar Texas and some places in middle east can be. Dust, deserts, oil, lots of guns, and... fanatics (to avoid calling them fundamentalists).

Well, we have two models for light, and that doesn't stop us from using it :) Hopefully it's something like this: If it works, let's sell it, then we can use some money to investigate how does it work and how we can improve it.

In several countries in Latin America (Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Venezuela, Colombia, Costa Rica, idk about others) you receive an extra monthly salary (a 13th month) by law. In some countries, you receive it all in one payment, in others

Where's that? It looks like they're coming out from Santa Teresita. I used to go there on vacations with my friends a few years ago (I went there 5 years in a row!)... but I never heard of the cables.

Well, we are 102. And not because of benevolence (even when we have a lot of soft judges lately, that seem to prefer to look after criminals instead of the population), but because our prisons are old and full of people, and there's no poli

You can find corruption all around the world, in places that were never under a communist regime. Corruption is a consequence of our human condition, not our economic system.

That's funny, I had a fellow co-worker here who came from Sweden. He said that even when there was practically no corruption at all where he lived, life was incredibly boring. He seemed to enjoy "having problems" here (yeah, that sounded st

yay! You just taught me a new term in english: Crony capitalism . It's almost the same in spanish btw: ("capitalismo de amigos", literally: "friend's capitalism"). Thanks for that ;) And yes, that kind of problem seems to be present all a

Thanks, You make me feel better for my country. Even when there is a lot of corruption in Argentina, luckily we are not at that level yet. I mean, yes... some things are common: police taking money from prostitution and even from drug deale

As something I read the other day stated (I think it was that Stratfor monograph that was posted here, but I'm not very sure), it looks like the US is using its patent system as a means to protect their global interests against foreign comp

Maybe, thinking this as a non-English native speaker, most of the Internet is written in a foreign language, so we are used to adapt ourselves. We don't expect to have everything available in our language. Heck, I'm really used to google "e

Porn is all about close range shots. Glass is just useless in close range... too much shakes. It's better for mid or long range. that's why I see it hard to use for that kind of use.

While this is really good news, and should be celebrated, I'm still asking myself if this would have been approved if a draft wouldn't have leaked. However, we must not rest on our laurels, as I'm sure something else will appear sooner than

In high school I had a fellow student that was ortodox. So, he believed that the Bible should be taken as a literal story. So, when I asked him if he believed in Dinosaurs, he said that some fossils were from before the Great Flood, and tha
