I think we should remember the vast differences between reporting about scientific papers and the peer-reviewed papers themselves; I have a good feeling, based on previous experience, that most of the caveats raised here will be tackled by

Understanding the brain isn't only about collecting data, it is about our basic perception of the world around us, the way we arrange data into coherent structures. There's a fundamental barrier between code and its output - the brain's str

Hats off to Wikimedia, a beacon of the true ideals of the free Internet; they've never tried to monetize their substantial achievements, really made a difference, and actually realized what for other companies have been merely lip service (

I guess John Doe would work just fine though. Google is very "Anglo-centric" in many of its products.

I've never been a good Google user, never looked at their ads, always used noscript to block them on other sites, and often searched for obscure, little known information on a multitude of subjects. Google used to be immensely helpful, but

Thank you. After posting my comment it occurred to me that I was only criticizing the article ,not the book, which I haven't read. So thanks for the clarification.

From my own experience, private Indian businesses tend to pay promptly and are very reliable, yet become hopelessly entangled in endless bureaucracy once payments become international (this is probably the Government's fault, not their own)

Amazing, not one word about colonialism. "by the late 1700s, England had embarked on the largest sustained period of economic growth since the Neolithic age" Right, and many countries in the world still try to resurrect themselves from that

Obviously no "people" are smart or stupid or anything else. You can only generalize like this if you don't know many of them, and so such generalizations are always a mark of ignorance, never of true knowledge. This is not only true for hum

As I've said before, there are searches for consumption needs, and a completely different kind of search made for research needs. No popular search engine today differentiates between the two, but Goggle is slowly moving towards a search de

This has also been the case with Win95, many users had trouble using the mouse, trying to raise it in the air in order to raise the cursor on the screen etc. While I'm not sure about Metro's usefulness for laptops and desktops, I do think t

Something's really wrong with this article - lack of an economic angle. Prisons in the US are an enormous private business, with free labor. (i.e. http://www.unicor.gov/about/faqs/top_ten/index.cfm ) Another problem is the silly/cruel "t

These are certainly the first days of social networking, the law and social conventions still have a lot of catching up to do. On a different note, I find it quite ironic that Facebook forbids children under 13 from opening accounts, while

While I agree with your points, I do think it might be worthwhile to try and determine how dependent we've become on the Internet.

On a side note... MSG has never been proved to be harmful, even after more than 40 years of tests. It is consumed daily by about a third of the world's population, and occurs naturally by combining certain foods ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wi
