1) Your funding goal is ridiculous. $69K, really? Four engineers could not pitch in to get that much? 2) Your highest investment pledge ($10k or more) is an insult to the investor. They will essentially pay for 1/7th of your company, while

The most interesting question to me is - what happens when one of the entangled particles get annihilated. If the other one does too, instantly, then we can use that to communicate faster than light.

Yes, it's a horrible idea. That's basically playing a lottery, since unexpected things happen all the time, successful companies go out of business (Yahoo, and AOL looked pretty damn good 10 years ago).

Imagine you have a randomly distributed age population. When you break it into groups (especially small groups), you will ALWAYS find a group with the largest average lifespan. Depending on what your average group size is, their lifespan ca

They would have to make batteries replaceable, since a product targeted to years of use. Their funding goal of $50K is ridiculous. This is a software + hardware project. $50K is nothing. Plus they need to pay royalties for using JPG once th

It's the standard weapon of botnet blackmail. Target a large site, bring it down, ask for money. Fighting DDoS attacks is not trivial, especially if you're against a sophisticated botnet, and your code has multiple slow parts.

I'm not saying that it wasn't a conspiracy and assassination. I'm saying there's no good evidence of it. So far there are natural explanations of what happened, plus the douchebaggery of the Russian politicians.
