What we don't know is so far greater than what we do know it's almost unimaginable. The truth is, many of us cannot imagine that. And it's hard to find a more glaring example than heath care when it comes to proving it. You w

You're right, and the article does agree with you. But this is not a story hyping a potential cure. It's a story about how our front line healthcare workers are trying everything they can in an effort to find something that works

Well, when I hear that I think of Theranos. I'm not an investor, but that approach feels a bit like putting the cart before the horse to me. For example, if I went to horse riders and asked them if they'd buy a saddle for $2000 th

What I got from Startup School was that an MVP didn't have to do anything at all. It just had to demonstrate what it "will" do. It's basically a "mockup".

I have to agree with the author. The MVP concept was new to me when I attended Startup School a couple years ago and while I understood what it gets at (not spending too much time or money on a concept that no one may want) it feels too muc

Honestly, this is something you shouldn't even spend time thinking about. As icedchai already pointed out, it's "completely normal" and I'll add it's also ethical. Instead of fretting about the ethics of who ge

Yeah... he's right. I'll refrain from elaborating but we're dangerously close to seeing guillotines being assembled again and have been for quite awhile now. It'd be a lot easier on everyone if we moved wealth downward a

That's a pretty sweet looking tool set you've put together. That looks like something small businesses would love have someone onboard that knows how to use it. I'm not a spreadsheet power user. I've not really done much

I get what you're saying, and you're right. But... so am I. The gap between us is education. What I propose is that one could take a class to learn how to make apps, as oppose to a CS class. I don't think a GUI app maker is t

It was in the `70s that I first heard the concept "Telecommuting". I knew right off I would have to learn a skill set that allowed me to do that and started exploring the options. It took me until the late-1990s to get there, but

Ok... I am a self taught "app maker". Not CS grad. Not a "software engineer". I use tools that other's here create to make apps. What they do is way over my pay grade but I can use well written and documented APIs,

One of my nearest neighbor's kids got it here. He had the classic "ring" around the bite and the tick was fairly well gorged and swollen when they pulled it off. So it's here. But that family moved here from Indiana so t

This has no bearing on the tests of this new drug, but it's worth noting that the best prevention is getting ticks off of you quickly. I know this because I live in a very tick infested area (Ozark Mountains) and very few people who&#x

It's not me I worry about most. When I was growing up my father was a "body man". He repaired wrecked cars. There was rarely a time when he had no work. He took me to his shop from the time I was born, so I grew up around cra
