I have no problem with your content (with the exception that you failed to mention which technologies COULD be commercialized rather easily). I believe you gave all accurate information. I just didn't like your presentation. So some criti

One thing I can't stand about the hydrogen debate is how people link it to "fuel cells are bad." Solid Oxide fuel cells happen to be quite economical and successful by using other fuels like propane and gasoline. There are disadvantages wi

If that's the case, then who is buying this music? Isn't everyone's libraries already saturated with the songs they enjoy?

This is certainly true. But it all depends on where you live as well. If you take out $80,000 in loans it makes no sense to live in an area where the average salary is $35,000. Then of course, even in higher paying locations you have to

This article is the story of my life right now. I am 25. I am living the quarter life crisis. What makes this article hilarious though is that it is so true . Yes, its a selfish, narcissistic feeling. But in my defense it was how I survi

Is that a picture of your marketing campaign? That is hilariously awesome. It looks like how I bring groceries home from the store or how I take my laundry to the laundromat.

Both points made above are valid. While not a great PR move, LinkedIn is entitled to make that kind of decision and honestly I hope they get what they paid for (nothing). Something that the free market does not take into account though is

Maybe we should move to a 5-point rating system. A whole lot more data to work with!

I know this post is about the "best" comments, but that doesn't necessarily indicate quality. I'm not sure what might be a good algorithm to judge quality, but popularity is most certainly not it. To all you natural language processing ne

Can someone post performance tips for Python? Either links or just suggestions. I've been coding in Python for a couple weeks and I'm not sure about what tools I have at my disposal for identifying bottlenecks and subsequently how to addr

It's true though. I've had my Macbook for a few years and my roommate has had his for 5. I can't remember a time when it broke down. On the other hand, my sister has a Dell, my co-worker has a Dell, both of which have lost keys on the ke

I think you're totally right. And honestly I think the side-effect of having a ridiculously costly health-care system is that people just end up caring for themselves anyways. Unless of course you're my dad, who fainted at the wheel, was

Just because they...err we...have a higher incentive doesn't mean we have a better ability to diagnose. I'd like to think I'm a smart guy (3rd year PhD student) and I can't tell the difference between a cold, flu, allergies, or mono.

You really think people are smart enough to care for themselves? The government is trying to protect us from ourselves, hence the "click-it or ticket" seat-belt law. Maybe the best way to fix our health-care system is to fix our educational

Tolerance and shared vision/values are definitely important. But that only comes after there is an equal desire to be in a long term relationship. For some people that desire wanes (for whatever reasons), and that's why these lasting conn

Yup. Hard science books take a long time to digest. But the trick to keep at it is to keep a self check: is this something you're really interested in learning? Perhaps you'll find out within a few chapters that it's not worth it. And tha

Actually I do mean literally. Seriously, go immerse yourself in the culture that surrounds homelessness and actually try to be homeless for a day, or better, a week. Then write about what you learned. What you'll find is that there is no

This isn't about information. It's about experience. Just like you don't learn hacking by reading a book, you don't learn about homelessness until you put yourself in their shoes. Literally. The sad part is that the marginalized always beco

There's no substitute for living and working with the homeless in solidarity. If you want to learn real lessons about how they live their lives or about how they got into their situation, get off your chair and go work at a soup kitchen for

One immediate thought I had about the e-mail problem is how online-dating sites deal with it. Now, I realize online collaboration is completely different user motivation. Online dating preys upon a somewhat already-desperate userbase. But
