   It also tends to only be available in "older" types of memory, with higher latency and lower bandwidth, on top of the ECC overhead itself.

   For gaming, not necessary. OTOH, if I'm going to put a 1080 GTX, 2 Xeons or $1700 single-proc, 32-64-128GB RAM, lots of SSD, etc. into a box, I sort of want to make it dual-use. Option B is just getting two boxes and multiple inputs o

   I want to upgrade my desktop/gaming box from a 5yo but maxed out Gulftown i7-970, but this really isn't terribly compelling. I guess I wait another generation (throw a new GPU in there, but nothing else)? Dual CPU Xeon seems bett

    This could do with a short summary of the book and why Alan Kay thought it was relevant, for each, on-page, before the link to Amazon.

    I think it's fair to provide incentives (either fixed cash payments across the whole country, or other incentives) for poor people to move to areas where labor is relatively highly valued relative to living costs. A lot of US/etc

    I'm sure the GEICO lizard could be fun for someone, and an insurer could probably do a "fake accident filter to get out of work" or something.

    I wonder if you could create a new antibiotic and restrict it to supervised inpatient use only, to preserve efficacy for as long as possible.

    Are there "amateur" remote observatories? I'd be happy to control a telescope on a mountain in Chile or something over the Internet, rather than trying to screw around with a physical telescope in a city.

    I'd be interested in partnering with Singapore Airlines or Changi Airport, so this might actually be an interesting opportunity.

    I love the idea behind ChromeOS, but the actual implementation is lacking in a lot of ways. Fundamentally being tied essentially exclusively to Google services just doesn't work for a lot of use cases. It's probably fine for a lo

    You might be able to get the big "incumbent" tech employers in a region, specifically in some industries you care about, to voluntarily give up these non-competes from new or existing contracts, in exchange for the benefits of bei

    I wish you had a way to "seed" backups with removable media. I'm a backblaze user but initial backup (I have photo collections) is super slow. Probably not in your pricing model, though.

    From reading this, HGST >>> Seagate, right? I wasn't sure how the "weird" sourcing they had (cracking external drives open during the HDD drought) would affect things, but that was over in 2015, and the trend still

    It's not usually the startups having non-competes which are the problem -- it's the previous bigco employers of people startups want to hire, or people who want to found startups.

    Biggest things I'd do for Pittsburgh (I'm from Philadelphia originally, but I think that's a lost cause): 1) Fix non-competes (state law; maybe fix state wide, or just in the city?) -- parity with California 2) Make life as e
