This is linkbait with some technical jargon thrown in. The companies behind SSD technology - Samsung, Micron, IBM, Intel, etc are not sitting on their duffs waiting for the limits of their design to hit. People have been claiming the end o

We've been in the same boat - spending our money to get our startup off the ground. However, I never became jealous of the "Garbage Man." If anything, it's a motivator for me to see that's NOT what I set out to do - some routine job with d

Practice doesn't make perfect. It only get you 80% there and the remaining 20% is from a combination of sweat-equity and talent. At some point, the efforts of B-grade practice sessions result in a saturated level of performance. If there's

I agree that dressing nicely is a good way to communicate that you're serious about interacting with others. You certainly don't want to come across as unprofessional and it's important to show others that you're putting forth your best eff

The same is true for nicely dressed people. I bought my first suit last week and walked around downtown feeling all smug - I wasn't even trying to feel smug and yet when you're the best dressed in the room it goes right to your head. Lame..

2 Liters of Coke has 300mg of caffeine. That's right about 4 shots of Starbucks espresso, one 16oz cup of Starbucks drip brew, or two regular coffee (non starbucks) drip brew.

Interesting, I ran through the numbers and 2L of Coke is about the same caffeine as two cups of 12 oz coffee.

I got off coffee for two weeks to as an experiment. Note I currently drink about 2 cups a day. My energy was much more balanced - could wake up fully alert. However, I felt depressed the entire two weeks. Generally just very SAD. So I go

You should make a fake book cover that you can slide your kindle into. If you hide the bezel and only show the e-ink screen up flush with a page-cutout it just might work! good luck!

4G on my new Sprint HTC EVO is a joke. It sucks down on the battery like a thirsty yak and it has terrible indoor reception. Not to mention it doesn't seem noticeably faster than 3G. So I use the 3G radio 99.9% of the time and the 4G radi

isn't the point of this article the fact that the number of reps is not important but the fatigue limit? So saying 20 is too many is fine, but it's not in sync with the article.

If you're an ectomorph like myself, this is good news. I think I'm going to change my lifting routine to 20 reps and work more on good form.

I'm surprised there are not more digitally controlled locks on the market - something that has an embedded microcontroller that releases a solenoid if the right code is entered. What's a locksmith hacker to do with such a lock? There's no

Very true, but if that's the case you're probably writing some code that requires engineering (i.e. a control system or requiring an understanding of the engineering system that you're writing code for). If that's the case then you're prob

I think comparing software development to traditional civil, mechanical or electrical engineering is flawed (apples and oranges). When this guy claims they are doing something that has never been done before, they are taking orders-of-magni

Typically I open a new browser window for these sort of groups (work, fun, etc). If a tab needs to move between these ad-hoc groups then with chrome you can of course just drag it between the windows. Since I have a 3 monitor setup this i

This seems a little 'too much' for me. Though I wouldn't mind having a tab-candy type manager that automatically groups all tabs of the same domain into one group. This way I could close all pages of a particular site at once and clean up

My background thoughts and ideas are usually based on what I really WANT to be doing, not what I SHOULD be doing (i.e. for my employer). In fact, the basis for our startup came when I was focusing on the first, and ignoring the latter. The

The technology to enable a hover-state in a touch input device is certainly there. Hopefully in the near future OEM's will create a UI that allow you to see a hover state as your finger approaches a target element. Ideally, you'd get thre

I always find it a bit confusing why a job would require a MS or PHD. Shouldn't the applicant be judged by what he knows, not what his paper slip says. The smartest antenna guy I know is an engineer with 30+ years of experience, a ham radi
