What a disappointing AMA. He answers stupid questions about his favorite basketball player and the white house beer recipe, but completely ignores the important ones about decriminalization of marijuana. Fuck him. I'm not voting for him. He

Same with Lenovo Ideapads. One hinge broke in mine 2 months after I got it. It got fixed under warranty, they replaced the whole section of the laptop, both hinges. Now 1.5 years later the other hinge broke, I will have to either live with

Except that the company that tries to patent BRCA gene has nothing to do with its "carving". Your analogy doesn't work.

5000AD estimate is complete bullshit. Our energy consumption doubles every ~20 years (15 to 35 by various sources). In only 10 doublings (200 years) our energy consumption will increase 1,000 times. After 20 doublings (400 years), it will i

This just shows you don't understand how their technology works. They don't capture the data at half a trillion FPS. They take very short exposures and shift the phase very precisely, which creates an illusion of 1 trillion fps.

Again, it's NOT trillion frames per second. Stop spreading this bullshit. That camera takes extremely short exposures (1 trillionth of a sec), but it cannot take 1 trillion of such exposures in one second. Not even close. Not one billion, n

If your ceiling is $3333, maybe you should stick to riding a bus. Do you realize how much it costs to run one car for a year? Gas, registration, insurance, oil changes, maintenance, it adds up pretty quickly.

And patents should be A) Sufficiently complex. No more slide-to-unlock trivial bullshit. B) Strict checks on prior art. Slide-to-unlock, again.

> The CEO of a company cannot "take back" or "wipe out" your right to purchase stock, aka stock options. Sure they can, if that's how your vesting contract is written. You get fired, your un-vested options are gone.

That's assuming the clients are not compromised, hardware is not compromized, and "whatever protocol" is not susceptible to man-in-the-middle attacks.

It will make it a lot harder. Right now governments have backdoors in apps like Skype, and all Skype's traffic is now routed through Microsoft's servers. With WebRTC governments would have to perform man-in-the-middle attacks, which is pret

$50/month with StraightTalk is not unlimited data. After you spend 2GB, they will send you a questionnaire on why you use so much data, and what happens after that is kind of random.

It happened very quickly, after years of operations. Technically, it can take seconds to lose that much. What they did wrong is do all their trading with the same algorithm. Way to put all eggs in one basket.

Oh it can definitely be blocked. All CL has to do is change the HTML, and the parser will break. They can make it so complex and dynamic that parsing will become unrealistically hard.
