Not a bad approach by Microsoft, frankly. The Surface Pro 2 hardware is extraordinarily more capable than the iPad, but the third-party software ecosystem isn't there yet. Delta is big enough of a customer that people building professi

Atheism, as a conceptual focus of a movie, is about as interesting as a group of people who aren't marathon runners. It's hard to define a character by what they don't believe in. There are plenty of movies that are "ath

Psychology isn't really comparable to computer science since computer science is the study of a manmade system, making it more like mathematics. Computer science is not a traditional "science" studying the mechanisms of an un

That service helped me once. I broke my laptop and HP shipped me an imaged machine overnight with my employer's image on it so I only lost one day.

"It's not going to be a good week for you, my friend" is definitely threatening, at least to the ear of someone who has watched crime and gangster movies. While these kinds of communciations shouldn't be on Twitter in th

No, because the laws that protect exclusive dealerships against competition from the manufacturer are the only reason that dealerships exist (nobody would have invested money to build a business that could be shut down overnight). What&#x27

I don't think the author specifically wants to see T-Mobile die trying as much as he enjoys the benefits of T-Mobile's aggression on the entire industry, even if T-Mobile itself is not financially strong enough to survive its at

How relevant is the court of public opinion in a matter like this? Seems like Watsi realized they had more to lose than gain.

Oil tankers actually run sophisticated on-board economic models to decide what speed to sail at. Depending on the price of oil, the cost of financing capital, the depreciation model for the ship, prevailing ocean currents, etc., they decide

No, you can sign up for Facebook with just a phone number. It only presents this option to you when you access the signup page from a phone, though.

Very interesting stuff. This demo would be more interesting if I could paste in my own text to confirm my comprehension. I could process Spritz's marketing statement at 500wpm, but it's fairly simple text and may have been optimiz

I don't think it's more dignified to live in an isolated dwelling (some the most expensive residences in the world are in apartment buildings), but it does really help with the Tragedy of the Commons. In my apartment building in S

The number of people who want to send text messages is several times the number of people who want to use Facebook, especially given the cost of mobile data on prepaid phones.

It's hands down better than other touchscreen-based controls. It's still quite a ways behind the old technology -- i.e., physical buttons. I drive a 1998 car and can operate every single control without looking at the console, exc

MIT has a technical definition of "MIT Community," which I believe includes students, faculty, staff, and affiliates (not alumni, I believe). There is of course the more day-to-day meaning of community, but there are specific poli

Because humans cannot photosynthesize, hunger is a consequence of idleness in a subsistence farming economy. A modern industrialized economy isn't too different along that parameter.
