Headline is misleading (in the original article too). What the article says is that the phone operators are losing money on the iphone. The article says nothing about Apple, which presumably is making a ton of money.

Domestic US first class is not what this article is about. International first class on intercontinental flights is a whole beast altogether. I wish I could afford it, it makes a huge difference on a 12hr flight. I don't think it's that eas

I shouldn't be the one answering your question. It's a tough one. If the stakes are low and you can follow standard practices and get somebody who knows what he is doing to just check your work, you might get away with it. If the stakes are

No. Schneier knows his crypto, of course. His blog, however, is much more about security in the broad sense than crypto. Becoming a cryptography expert these days is not easy, there is much to learn.

Could somebody explain what this is without the "last.fm" analogy, since I don't have the foggiest idea what "last.fm" is.

In some areas, it is common for the researchers to put their papers up on their web pages or on the ArXiv. Alternatively, just write to the author. They will send you a copy.

You are splitting hairs. The logical reasoning underpinning theoretical CS is the same as that of Mathematics. Whether or not this has any bearing on the gender imbalance problem, I don't know, but at the level of this discussion, CS is Mat

I will be more flippant than pg: Just get up already. Now I will explain my reaction so I don't just get downvoted and if you disagree with me, reply. Most people in the world have responsibilities. Kids to feed and to take to school, chore

Actually the article briefly mention that job postings are down 25% in the "American Mathematical Association's" (would that be the AMS?) "main job board" (would that be mathjobs.org?). I agree that the article is heavily slanted to the hum

Foreign Universities (esp. in English speaking countries: Canada, UK, Australia,...) would be the most likely to provide arbitrage and offer the same service at lower costs. It is just fear of living overseas that is stopping this from happ
