4 courses at coursera: $0 4 courses at my local state university: $5000 - Hell lets be a little bit more equitable: 4 courses at coursera with the signature track: $200 4 courses at my local community college: $400

It seems like they have a chicken and egg problem. If the courses aren't valuable aside from the benefits of learning (which can be accomplished through other means), then why bother completing them? Meanwhile, it's hard to take t

It doesn't seem like Thrun put a lot of effort into popularizing the approach either. He gave 1.5 years and a pilot program to affirm a product that undermines years of ingrained ritual and validity? It doesn't seem like he was ev

No mention of Google's Calico or robotics division? I actually expect Calico to make some pretty major announcements by 2014's end.

I remember going through the majority of my primary education in the 2000's and being dismayed by the gap between public school education and the resources of the internet. It was such a weird, and unfortunate, period of denial. Maybe

This is the case that gets you pissed off at Apple's use of patent litigation?

The Google = slimy politician comparison really undercuts the detached perspective that he's hoping to impart to Googlers or potential Googlers.

You just sloppily restated the article.

I was waiting for the conclusion "just like HN", but I guess they carry the same delusions about HN not being a trite hivemind that they once did for reddit.

It would be kind of neat in a multimedia, "Snow Fall" like article, but I'm not sure if it would be actually useful. I've often thought of using eye tracking software to introduce more visual/text information while

They're just interested in becoming the government.

The amount and conviction of users doesn't imply usefulness. There are pretty obvious examples of this. I don't dislike Facebook. I'm just amazed that their bargain is so lucrative. I don't think it will be best for cons

It amazes me that facebook has achieved this sweet spot of harvesting personalized ad dollars while providing so little utility.

What patches can you use that are fairly low dose and not a 24 hour time release?

Patches and gum are really expensive.

I'm not sure why we give so much credence to legacy users complaining about new software (tech in general). Specific use cases are either adaptable or they'll work their way into the new whatever as demand grows. For example, I

"I know Google likely didn't cooperate in this" I'm sure they have plausible deniability.
