You described me there, I now own Nokia C1-01, because it was the cheapest I could get. Reason for this is the fact that my phones usually last only 1,5 years and I hate touch-screens. Constantly loosing most of my stored numbers is my bigg

My roommates at helsinki university of technology have been a real eye openers for me. I can't say they are really like minded, but interesting as hell. Roommates don't have to be just roommates, they can be great friends.

I think it's why facebook really rules. It's the most casual place to ask a girl for a cup of coffee. If you sms it's a lot closer to harassing. And you can assume that you find practically any girl on facebook that you have met.

I find it relaxing to actually use my calendar. If I have stuff that I can schedule somewhere in near future, but I don't have the time to do it now, It's lot nicer looking at my calendar than my TO DO list.

I've been struggling with my studies for years. I was supposed to graduate as civil engineer. Now I'm finally getting better, but it took several things: 1. Baby steps. Spring 2010 was the first time that I understood that taking less cours

Also we get rid of those dangerous mines. Why they are dangerous? People have to work there. Luckily wind-turbine building and maintenance is not dangerous...

I'm sorry I didn't get that right. I should studying where I study. Anyhow I don't think "50 more and double the cost's" is exponential? // And I still would not think exponential is impossible function for the cost's. When you get about on

"How about storing waste for a period of time longer than recorded human history?" How about naturally occurring uranium? Isn't it just as unsafe as nuclear waste, it radiates too you know. You just need lot's of it to be dangerous. Now let

I'm confused with the math used here. I think exponential is something like you double the height, and quadruple the costs. And that doesn't sound unrealistic to me.

I kind of agree. But that's still micromanaging. Even though Steve's micromanaging seems to be excellent, it still will fire back at some point. That point might be now.

What really is the worst case scenario in nuclear meltdown? I've understood that actual fission explosion is nearly impossible, given the delicate structure inside a nuke to make this happen. Chernobyl scene will not be seen again (except m

It's not new material invented here, but process and that's perfectly patentable. Problem is that already published stuff is no longer patentable by anyone.

Making hard liquor worth drinking is surprisingly difficult. It's lot easier if you know how to make activated carbon, but making activated carbon is difficult with equipment of that age(possible though).

If Nokia would concentrate on good low end phone, maybe they could make a phone with a good sound quality. It's very hard to hear anything from modern phones when you actually try to talk to someone. And no one is even trying to fix that.
