Certainly if one is fluent, that's a perfectly reasonable desire - I'm not, but I'm sure there's a significant amount lost in that translation process.

Gee, I hope some high school teachers take this into account - especially the ones that mean well. One of my favorite teachers in high school extensively used physics demonstrations. The AP test scores were pretty high though, so maybe his

I remember reading a similar thing in a Barnes and Noble. Oh, bookstores...it was a fun read.

Rice + any meat + whatever sauce you want. Can't go wrong there. Very cheap, too...

Sell yourself, but be honest, in case someone calls your shit. The dirt selling guy is pretty honest, I don't think he was yelling. It really does help to have good communication skills for anything, be it speaking to that interviewer, disc

This is AWESOME. Well, at a naive and fleeting glance it is. I'm sure it has political, environmental, etc. etc. implications. And it got the green light. I'm wondering how big the tunnel is. I would assume it would have to fit many many tr

I think part of it might have to do with the fact that a majority of people joined it for the novelty, realized what it was for, and didn't want to put the effort in to contribute anything meaningful. A good number of people in my circles s

Could someone summarize this concept? I found it a little hard to follow. Is he saying that mapping what "intellectual spaces" (or something) you travel through while developing some skill may help you figure out what you could be good at o

I see some sort of internship process in the future for this...where they make high schoolers do this for 40 hours a week <___< . I mean, if humans do better on it, why not make it some sort of job, eh

I wonder if this will work all around, or if it has any later negative side effects. It's very interesting.

Always nice to see that friendliness can go a long way for smaller local places, that aren't necessarily restaurants. Of course, not all dollar stores are created equal. There are some nice ones, but also "soul-less" ones that just sell com

Well, imagine if you will you were stalking some person you kind of know but not very well, or someone who is an ex-whatever, etc...and that info gets out, and they know. It could spell disaster. Sure, it's entirely the person's fault for s

1. This is very cool 2. This is very scary. Someone hacking me then posting the top 10? Social disaster

Well, this script/data now has the increased effect of being very socially detrimental. It would be absolutely awkward as hell if data like this came out to friends.

Well, we certainly won't have to worry about it for now . But that doesn't mean we shouldn't worry about it, of course. It's a ways off in terms of orders of magnitude for how fast our computers now, and I don't think computers will be gro

I wonder how the assignments will work? Will they all be automated grading (based on some sort of validated output?) If the users gets to thousands, hand-grading is out of the question...

My dad works for MSI - he kept his job, and a few people he knows at the mobile one kept theirs. I know layoffs are fairly common, although it's possible that is true for most other large companies.

1:00-1:15 or so. "Find information about you." Heh heh, well that part certainly works now. I think it's perfectly fine his view changed from '05 to now about the use of Facebook.

What was the "more" to the story? I'm interested.

by seagaia 15y ago
That's possible. I wonder what the reason is, or if this Youtube thing isn't telling the whole story.

For indie developers...well, who knows. There might be a lot of finicky things with handing over you game to Google+. Becoming the new Kongregate? I sort of hope that stays outside of Google. Moreover I feel like this goes against the whole

So this issue has gotten to the "it just happens and we're not sure why?" The below comment (same depth level) is kind of the intuition I had, your post gives some reasons why, but I wonder if anyone knows the ground causes, or if that's as

Sort of related: has there been any evidence as to why sleep deprivation kills you? A friend and I were hypothesizing about it once, although neither of us are particularly knowledgeable about biology so it was a bunch of probably wild gues

Are sales higher in the UK or something? If not, I'm not sure why they would only launch them in the UK.
