That's truly interesting but food productions is really only one tiny part of the problem, and we also already kind of have mass starvation. I mean not in the developed world, but there are plenty of children that die either of plain o

Since this is an opinion piece, I'll give mine on the same topic: We don't need more jobs or a re-imagining of the meaning of life, we need less people. We're pushing into the golden age of mechanization, automation and robot

Without the clarity of being able to hear someone's voice and see someone's facial expression the mind finds ways of over interpreting what's written. On top of that, there are individuals who interpret every little thing in

I don't think this is a big feature, or anything more than a convienience for already active google wallet users that want to be able to use a physical card at retailers that don't support NFC transactions. It's mentioned no

With what looks like a collection of interesting new-technology and innovation it's kind of sad to see them marketing it as It's electric. Greeeeeeeeeeeen.

I'm more commenting on the effectiveness of arguing through shitty analogy. There's no logical reason to imagine any of this let alone compare it to the programming industry. It breeds disagreement, distraction, and useless side-d

Ironically your argument fails as it depends entirely on skill level. A highly skilled surgeon could perform emergency surgery without standard resources, and you could run an emergency hospital without receptionists. Let's not get dis

This is a NYC problem not a Amazon Prime or USPS problem. - Have your packages shipped to a friends work place or somewhere with a doorman. I use Amazon Prime in the city and do just that, it's great. - You can rent a PO box that accep

You said "identical behavior by Canadian agents" and then you said they let you pass. That is obviously not identical and is in fact contrary to a major point of OP's story. Just asking you to consider your adjectives more

Except that your computer is actually reading from a bunch of font files, not typeface files. It is called a font menu, because they are fonts. The vast majority of software doesn't deal with typefaces, they deal with individual font f

Depends, did you use unique font files to set your 12pt and 14pt type? Or did your computer scale them algorithmically from one file?

My biggest piece of advice: Don't consider the money an investment in you App. Consider it a form of encouragement to keep you thinking and working in general. Whoever gave you this money isn't expecting you to build a suicide pre

No actually they're being rather straight forward. They gave you the exact reason why they want Aereo to be shut down. They don't care at all if people use cable, they just want re-transmission fees. I don't agree with thei

No one is saying that it's fool proof or totally secure. It's just an easy, mostly reliable way to automate the process. If you develop a way to recover people's email accounts that is simple for consumers, requires no huma

Gorgeous, but they look more like early morning shots than abandoned city shots. Give me broad daylight or with all the lights off and it'll really feel atmospheric. The extreme saturation also doesn't contribute to a feeling of d

The whole phone number thing is an attempt to solve a very hard problem. Most people have terrrrrrrrrrrible password practices. Absolutely abysmal. And they are keeping extremely sensitive data inside their email as well as using their emai

Yes, creativity and experiments aren't the answer. It's rejection and protest that will solve all our imaginary problems.

Super cool idea! but, terrible name choice, no one is ever going to call it just "Coin" they're gonna call it their "coin card". "Coin" is already slang for money in general like, "dough" or &quo

You can still derive usefulness from voting even if you think your individual vote is useless and the system is flawed. Understanding processes in general can be useful, understanding the emotions of the people at the polling station can be
