Confluence/Jira... slow, chaotic, broken search engine... Basic stuff hidden or not fully functional... I never understood the raison d'etre of confluence expecially, it's a broken wiki basically... I'd rather pay an int

Continuous laser telemetry should be always available and active, anything bouncing back at certain speed and distance starts autonomous braking... No need to identify anything..

Now a compact fast-neutron lead cooled reactor would come in handy... development has been done..like the Convair NB 36H, but with 1950 tech..I wonder with modern specs and upgraded safety protocols..

The whole economy as it stands is a clever puzzle of guessing a half rigged race to the bottom (or the top) game. Now we have the computational and technological resources to track almost anything down to the single item, we should use this

Why not do a standard benchmark, perform a number of actions in different conditions and configurations, and see whether humans can react faster and more precisely with 2 touchscreens (let's level the 2 hands advantage) or multiple har

I would rather spend some pennies to make sure the fellas at General Fusion complete the first full scale demo MTF reactor...fission is an extremely appealing tech for many reasons, the problem seems to always boil down to the general popul

I find the idea that today we still have to worry about an en masse invasion from a random blob of the same planet and specie population quite an aberration... And more disturbing it all starts usually from single individuals....you want to

Classic example of following definitions or illustrious assumptions too closely... another one is an obvious one, and historically has been challenged a few times: the beginning of the prime sequence 'should be' 1, 3, 5.. very cle

I found that in my late 30ies I shifted from an exhausting DFS to a BFS mode....and it has surely helped in tackling social and work complexities better. I have also discovered that I was unconsciously not giving my full attention to detail

I relish when something gets a thoughtful graphical representation.. would be nice to have it in a more advanced 3d shape...maybe something like that could be done in unreal engine/blender, driving isosurfaces blobs. Too bad software i

I find it quite disturbing that in the US you have this insurance/tickets connection, it has been said clearly by many city halls and police forces that most ticketing and regulations are rigged to be just another city income stream, n

I find this kind of news deeply worrying...critical thinking should be applied to everything, and purging an archive of some of its controversial stuff (albeit a common practice in real ones too as pointed out) is a terrifying perspective,

Thinking that exposing the objective truth to the general public is always the best course of action is at best naive and can at times lead to tragedy... You can do this to a greater extent if your nation is small and has a high amount of h

Taking 50mg before going to bed, for periods, (3-6months a year, during massive crunch time project deliveries), it helps me sleep better and be less tired, also it makes my dreams extremely vivid and more complex, is there any study on thi

Anyone in the Montreal area could suggest a name for a good doctor to potentially diagnose and treat ADHD? This has been going on all my life and I am extremely fed up with it, I cannot list one single thing I ever finished 'properly&#

As far as anecdotes go, since I moved to London I noticed a sharp decrease in memory performance, heavy hair loss, and a general feeling of unhealthiness, developed a random persistent cough as well. The fact that you can always see a heavy

Absolutely agree with this. I find it quite sad when I see young non religious people at work behaving like monks and nuns in fear of human latent intentions and interpretations of their behaviour. Sometimes reading too much theory and ha

I think part of the problem is how real estate costs and huge franchise a la Starbucks are configured. When you travel in Mediterranean countries independent coffee shops 'bars' are the norm, and a good Italian espresso costs 0.80

The alternative to total recycling could be to rough recycling what can be easily extracted and used (ie metals) and the rest could go through a cycle of thermolysis/pyrolysis, powered by solar or other sustainable sources...

I would be very careful about outsourcing our basic civil right to move around freely. Very careful, extremely careful. I live in Europe and I fully appreciate cheap public transport and decongested city centers, but I appreciate more a goi

Absolutely, land estate prices are totally insane in the more gentrified areas. The building itself is nearly irrelevant, see Vancouver rare land plots for measure... or most of the UK. What is in dire need is a fundamental legislation chan

I think a lot of factors could be ironed out by a solid mathematical grasp of the problem, instead of letting customers become guinea pigs or running simulations and then deduce a blanket solution that looks okay in those average cases, a r

I wonder sometimes if our modern structured and red taped upper education model could ever cope with such exceptional individuals at all. I cannot stop thinking they will never get the unbridled space they need to express their ideas and co
