I wonder if someone could comment on the validity of the contract between the hospital and the victim of the enemas. For a contract to be valid both parties need consideration. Since the victim didn't consent to the enema or the other

My condolences. I have such aversion to Police types and I wish there was more local civilian control over police departments. If there is enough support here we should seriously consider what we can do to deter poor police behavior.

Retweet patterns would be quite interesting. Especially since retweets happen one of two ways. You retweet someone you follow or you retweet something happening in a trend. I wonder if you could separate those two.

Anyone else notice that the anchors at the beginning of the paragraph don't have a reference: <a>attacks on private buses</a> <a>stalkers of Google executives</a>

Ever hear of adverse selection? If someone is trying to sell something to you, you must ask the question why are you unloading it.

Many parts of Africa are not politically stable enough to support this manufacturing. You should watch this Planet Money article to understand why Manufacturing (of T-Shirts in this case) move from one country to the next. http:/&#x2F

Well that's the downside. But honestly I'm not going to sympathize very much because over 80% of my friends have iPhones and I am already biased to sending messages to them because iMessage and Photostream are such good products.

Photostream is really the end game for what sharing photos should be. You serve it on space that you rent privately from Apple. You have comments, likes, and filters. You can post photos of any size. Your social network is not being analyze

Versus Photostream!!!!! This is almost identical to Photostream which really is an under-appreciated iPhone product.

Reasons to continue using Snapchat. 1. They are the brand that reinvented the sharing model. They are more likely to stick to their core values 2. Facebook/Instagram can use the information about who you send to to expand their already

Just learned that it's dangerous to put a command prompt on a webpage because it took me about 0.2 seconds to hit ctrl+w 3 times and kill 3 tabs. I like it though.

"However, the normative default ought to be that a comfortable retirement can come out of a direct distribution system financed by taxes." There's two problems with this idea. First, you can only get returns for this direct d

Although I do not disagree with the perverse incentives of ratings agencies, you have to consider that certain funds are required to hold certain levels of investment grade products. Ignoring the reason why they have to do this, if the rati

see my comment below with a link to the NY Fed's study on the impact of credit ratings.

Although sovereign credit ratings by the big Credit Rating Agencies do have a small impact on borrowing cost, their ratings should still be taken with a grain of salt. Take a look at this study by the New York Fed. http://www.new

Well GOOG added $36 billion dollars of market cap overnight. To put that into perspective that is 9 BBRYs (RIMM), 1.5 TSLA's, 1.5 LNKD's, or 0.5 UNP's (Union Pacific).

What's the difference between HFT and traditional Human Market Makers? May I suggest that Electronic trading and HFT have made it possible for a few people to do the work of thousands. This has brought down the cost of trading.

Great App. Really fun to play with and viewing is as seamless as Vine or Instagram. In fact it looks so much like Vine, I am wondering if they are built off the same base framework. Is that possible or did they just do a really good copy of

If they are designing something on an fpga that conforms to openGl they are never going to get the same performance that IC's get implementing the same specification. What's the point?

I am having trouble imagining what would cause a two foot arc within a server? I've never heard of this issue among other high performance server racks. What could the NSA be doing that is consistently causing this issue?

If this device was remotely managed and you had access to the sensors mentioned in the white paper then the tasks above may not be that hard for smaller plots of land. Teaching it what rain is? How about a query to Yahoo Weather. Teach it w

Really interesting idea. I could see this being used to remotely manage a farm from anywhere in the world. Picture a dashboard with hookups to your video feeds and statistics. When it's time to harvest take it out of the ground put it

Does the nyc opendata initiative have any crowd sourced programs to repair broken records? Could be a win/win for developers and the city if they would accept feedback on their datasets.

Yeah I immediately looked down there also. I know in the PLUTO data a lot of the entries have a year build and a number of years renovated. Even then though it appears that the year built is being used throughout the map. Probably requires

Right. That's what I was using when I was playing with the pluto data in openGl. Unfortunately/Fortunately some of you other programmers are much better than me at displaying this stuff in web apps.

There are a lot of interesting outliers: 1834 - 56 Irving Place | 1800 - 30 East 13th Street | 1800 - 140 West 13th Street | 1830 - 28 Jane Street | Just to name some. Inspecting them on google street view they don't appear to stand ou
