I thought the content of the presentation was good, but the format was kind of confusing. There wasn't any indication of where to click to advance the slideshow, or any indication that you were supposed to press space or right arrow to

You might want to change the name from Arc to something else. Arc is the name of a lisp dialect written by Paul Graham, and is the language Hacker News is written in. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arc_%28programming_lang

If project euler seems too "mathy" try some problems from Top Coder or similar programming challenges. I find they're pretty fun, and can be a bit of a puzzle to work out what's the most efficient approach.

Perhaps not so much a mechanical device, but take a closed source patented piece of software for example. You could be able to keep the design (source code) secret, and yet still sell it to the public.

eink could be useful, perhaps more for a larger tablet "blocks" device. You could put in the eink screen when you wish to use it as an ereader, for optimal reading experience, and then replace it with a different screen for watchi

Does anyone have any idea what the price on these things will be when they come out? I know AMD's x86 cpus are usually cheaper than Intel's, and given that ARM cpus cost less than x86 ones, this should also decrease the price.

Couldn't you do some kind of correlation from geolocation to correct for time zone differences?

The announcement recommended Replicant and FDroid. Perhaps in the future a Firefox OS or Ubuntu phone could be the basis for a free phone OS? Of course, rms himself doesn't even use any cell phone at all, so if you are as concerned as

You could still have the problem with a human dealer. There are many ways to cheat at dealing cards, and a very skilled human could be able to do it without being detected.

I was not homeschooled, and I never fought, dated or slept with anyone in my school. So I would not really see these things are inherent to the public school in and of itself, but rather to the character of the individual in question.

Some of the points about children learning naturally by themselves remind me somewhat of Rousseau's "Emile, or On Education" However, I don't know if anyone had been able to actually pull this off in real life. I think o

I think the point is to give your child the right to choose what (if any) they want to share at an age when they are old enough to responsibly make that decision herself, and not forcibly thrust into it before she could even talk, or walk.

I wouldn't really say I have friends or a life (or at least a "social" one) outside of work. But I wouldn't really say that's a bad thing. I mean you get used to it after a while. If your work is rewarding, then you

Watermarked would probably be a good idea. Though it is annoying for free users, it does serve the purpose of letting everyone who watches the video know what software was used to create it, and where to get it to try it out for themselves.
