One thing that I noticed and hasn't been mentioned here (and everyone should try), the scrolling/zooming is fantastic. It remains smooth even with many many items displayed. Well done. It is all too common that a visualization like this wil

I've been waiting for this for a long time. I wear glasses currently and have always felt that some kind of overlay could provide tremendous value. From simple reminders, augmenting my environment with meta data, or giving access to real ti

Every time a see a new quadcopter video, I wonder to myself how long before local law enforcement starts using them. I gratly fear a widely used, easily weaponized, remote controlled airforce that local enforcement officers can easily obtai

IANAL. You have 5th amendment rights against self incrimination. You don't have to answer. How do you word that? No idea, but that would be the route to take I think.

Arstechnica.com has a modified site design and focus on SOPA. Not really blacked out, but definitely calling attention to the topic.

I think not. Human computer interaction is moving farther AWAY from this in my view. Note that the most popular consumer devices (phones and tablets) don't allow any way for the user to really accomplish this and actually require a second d

That works. Interestingly, it shows that the previous commenter and myself both read the article the same way, one that I don't think a typical author would necessarily assume. I skipped the video entirely, upon reading the first words of t

The phrasing is somewhat confusing, I had to reread it after being confused at the lack of sound in the video and the mention of a voice synthesis module. The "voice" refers to the voice in the subsequent paragraph, the one driving the pro

I certainly understand how frustrated you are with the fact that it seems OK to bash men, however I think you're missing the point in this case. Would it be fair to say that you'd prefer not to be portrayed as a "bumbling buffoon"? Just bec

Transferring them in bulk wouldn't technically be against any of the rules. There are provisions that access to bulk data be limited to those that 'need' it. This is obviously ambiguous and up to interpretation of your auditor. In this case

This actually annoys me, if I mark a new podcast read in reader it never downloads and queues on the phone if it hasn't already polled and seen the new item. I end up marking them unread over and over until I check to see if my phone has ac

This assumes the users have somehow discovered the gestures. Based on you're own example, I'd say that they won't. You can use the OS just fine without ever bumping into a gesture.

As other commenters have noted, the argument in the article is ridiculous. If you don't like the feature, dont use it. That said, I think there are some possible areas of improvement: 1) I agree with the author that the ability to revoke a

While I understand the 'negatives' the article mentions, it doesn't provide much in the way of helpful insight as the the alternative. Sure people are losing jobs to automation, does that mean we should stop moving forward? This isn't just

I don't believe that this inherently true. The market generally revoles around risk, additional returns are possible when taking more risk. Higher rates of issuance just mean that there is more availability and possibly drive the prices dow

I think there are some differences, but regardless within the context of this article the author states: "it wasn’t an excess of greed ..., but rather an excess of overcaution" I disagree with this statement, and clearly, based on your defi

As the article states and as we found in the recession, there can't possibly be this many AAA rated organizations. I'll give an example at the risk of my memory failing and there being a difference in which exact organization it was: Days b

Not only that, but it then becomes a 'slippery slope', where do you draw the line at what manipulation is possible. Here they've draw a pretty clear line that the 'content' of the image cannot be changed but that coloring and associated ite
