I don't mind paying for a service by letting them show ads, as long as those ads don't feature malware or are otherwise annoying/resource-straining/... I hate TV ads and never watch TV as i find the ads intrusive. But ta

Snapchat with higher valuation than Deutsche Bank. Tells you a lot about two different industries at once - but if i had to invest in one i know I'd always choose the latter over the former.

Even Evernote is not profitable yet. Or Snapchat. Huge company valuations with little to no profitability. Sounds familiar?

This... You're just going to up the crime rate. Easy access to guns is also working out so great for the US.

Internet porn might be new there, but porn/erotica certainly not. Just like Victorian erotica these villagers too will have had at least three possibility to access pornographic materials. That's actually part of the reason why we

Actually thinking about it, whatsapp can play a role. They say they want to find ways to stop the spread of such videos - we all know that's nearly impossible on the internet as a whole, but in a world where for most people the interne

You like diverse food but then resort to Soylent to avoid choosing food? I suppose it's healthier than McD but it really sounds a bit crazy.

That's probably just me but a lifestyle where you have no time to take a break (or meet friends/colleagues) and eat doesn't sound very healthy and not very desirable either. I understand the desire to optimise eating times an

You'll always find studies both ways, and in a field as big you'll also always find junk, but i think you make rather bold claims (undeclared conflicts of interest, etc) which seem unlikely to hold true for a significant portion o

That sounds rather unrealistic. The chance that you're the first one to think thought x is pretty low. Rely on other's work and step beyond it, don't try to ignore it.

Don't judge a science by looking at just a few of the people in it... Also to say i think it's a graded thing. Often such type of critique might be serious and well developed, often it might be serious but based on misunderstandin

Headline grabber, but not much more. That the 'sharing economy' will not continue as today should be obvious though. Governments have to react to avoid a breakdown of regular services like taxis, assuming that they want to save th

As a fellow German please remember that these cases are reported more than 'normal' rape cases. It's a simple case of sample/selection, the most visible cases seem more frequent, thus more people focus on them, thus they

Yeah, this is a Russian state-owned "media" known, together with RT, to be waging a disinformation campaign. If you don't find this in any of the hundreds of proper media it's likely just made up. I'm not American s
