I think this lends credence to the Thiel/Eric Weinstein notion of allowing scientists and innovators to be irreverent because many new discoveries have to run against the grain. I've heard Weinstein postulate one of the great stre

I disagree with some of your sub points from point 1. Selling parts, providing documentation, and building repair manuals are forcing behaviors form companies. Compelling them to do provide a service or product that they would not otherwise

It is clearly not a foreign language, but it might honestly be a better substitute for most students' time. In the US, a foreign language can be a great thing to learn, but with our failing math and science teachings, perhaps shifting

I don't think with china's regulatory framework and government's ability to rapidly change housing supply that foreign investment would use it as a store of capital.

Your story is so anecdotal and influenced by the people you know that it is practically irrelevant. Not trying to jump down your throat, but "people I see" and "I don't know anyone" renders your statement useless.

Fabric meaning that the two things (space and time) are not separate entities. Read some of the cool thought experiments underlying special relativity and you will see how the two are "woven" together :)

The predominance of matter over antimatter I thought was explained by symmetry breaking at the ultra extreme conditions of early universe? Would there be a twin universe for other broken symmetries?

I'm surprised Moley ( http://www.moley.com/ ) didn't get a mention. I'm super excited about robotic food preparation, especially in the case of consumer facing robotics where its a unit in your own kitchen. Wit

How commonly accepted of a best practice is it to only shadow delete items in a DB. Will GDPR in Europe stop this? As a US user, I always fear that the internet is 100% written in ink. Either because of some caching mechanism, archiving pro
