I think they're marketing how you'll feel when you use the product, not what it looks like to use the product.

I understand this, but this is a big gaming category, and may be the ultimate place that Facebook Gameroom succeeds in.

As a counterpoint, for the few games I do play, I far prefer to use my real Facebook identity. Words with Friends in particular is most fun when I'm playing against my real friends. I also really like QuizUp.

It has to be able to handle every situation safely, but doesn't need to be able to continue operating in every situation. If unexpected construction blocks the road, it needs to be able to stop and pull over, it can't go haywire a

That's not sufficient because a hostile actor could have three phones with three accounts.

A self-driving car does not need to be able to handle every situation to still be useful. For example, if I had a self driving car that occasionally stopped and said "Please get in the drivers' seat, human driver required," i

Of course a hotel CEO will celebrate an anti-AirBnb law, and of course the Airbnb CEO will celebrate an anti-hotel law. That doesn't make either one a bad law. The law is supposed to serve the best interest of the public, and yes, some

Generally, I'm buying old camera equipment (25-60 years old). The condition of these items varies widely. The 99.8% sellers take every trouble to find every scratch / fleck of dust / etc. and photograph/document it. The

I have not had a single bad experience with buying from eBay sellers with >99.8% feedback, but multiple bad experiences buying unusual items from <99% sellers that I couldn't find with better sellers. It's worked well for me

What is his prime objective, then? If his prime objective is X, but he's spending all of his time and money working on eradicating disease, he's certainly not taking a very effective approach towards achieving his prime objective.

The problem is that nobody can understand numbers that big either. Nobody can really understand what it's like to be 4 billion years old or 100,000 light years across or 500 million pages of documents.

I think you are correct that the Democratic Party is much more socially acceptable to support, and that especially today, the penalties for holding the "wrong" opinion are severe and cause people to retreat to the anonymity of ven

I'm not sure they have a problem with that... They save the page serving cost and they weren't going to get revenue for it anyways.

Ah, I see the problem. A lot of people here don't know what "overtime" means. "Not getting overtime" doesn't mean you aren't paid for your 9th hour, you're just paid it at your regular wage. "Get

No, it's to get more money... A ton of people who don't get overtime still want more hours.

In heavily scale-dependent industries there's often an enormous financial gap between #1 and #2. Compare Intel's CPU profits to AMD's, Nvidia's to formerly ATI, Xilinx to Altera, Apple to Samsung, etc.

So what if it doesn't survive in the long run? Strike while the iron is hot, move on to something else when it cools.

How would integration with Windows Phone be "useful integration" compared to other efforts when Windows Phone has 1% market share?

Because 1) for brand new startups, which all kind of seem like dumb ideas or impossible ideas at the beginning, only a very small fraction of very talented people are willing to join, and 2) at such a small team size, there's so much m

Companies that quickly expand to meet sudden demand find themselves over capitalized when the demand inevitably drops, and often bankrupt soon afterwards. Lego has always been managed for the long term and I assume they will grow production

You don't just sacrifice a few dollars to have a Smart TV inside... It has security vulnerabilities, features stop working, etc... Especially with the "stick" format of Roku etc., I just see no point. I understand why the man

I still use my iMac, but I can't ignore the massive fan noise that the computer creates if I use it as a target display. I get that the computer inside is "free" but I'd gladly pay extra to have the components separated.

The 747 is one of mankind's crowning achievements. It's not only a technical marvel but an aesthetic one -- it looks truly beautiful while an A380 looks like it just got punched in the stomach. Along with the massive network of ai

The "Smart TV" is like those "all-in-one desktop PCs" -- unless you really prioritize the appearance of the thing, like in an architect's office where clients are visiting, etc. -- it almost never makes sense. T

I believe you host the product yourself -- so if you are going to have to deploy it, modify it, etc., you'll want to know what stack it's built on.

I think that this makes sense in concept if not in implementation. Taxi medallions were sold and traded under a certain set of laws which defined their value. The government decided to change those laws, so "buying out" the medall
