I'd love to see something this like for helping combat bullshit moving violations. You're right, in a perfect world it would be something I could care take of myself, but I often don't have the time- so I just pay the ticket

Neat. While perhaps impossible, I'd also love an app that would overall just help me get back ontrack for flights and rebooked somehow. I realize I can go to the gate agent (who invariably now has 50 other people in line, and are worki

While I don't have a Google Glass, I could see this being the ultimate reading interface for a device like that.

I'm in Boston and there's a handful of places I can use BTC. But not many. The ATM is at South Station. I could do a bit with them when I lived in NYC over the summer too.

In larger cities you can. There's a Bitcoin ATM even 2 blocks from my office.

True. She's well informed about it, and honestly better than the majority of people in the field, but it still doesn't make the field in general a rational decision. In the end her goal isn't to make money or have tenure, but

My girlfriend right now is trying to figure out her postdoc in neuroscience. While I fully support her passion, the industry of academia seems completely irrational from almost every sense and full of traps. While the end goal of a tenured

From what I understand, tracing them is also hard because (generally) there isn't any annotation on the blockchain to indicate who actually had them or what they were used for. So its hard to tell what point is just another place they

This looks great. I just wish it didn't have to completely refresh when you turn the earth. Maybe in V2 :)

Its too early to say how this will go down in the end for Bitcoin (lawsuits, public policy, pricing, etc), but it certainly is a dark mark. Somewhere between management woes, terrible communication and technical ineptitude will make this a

Maybe its just me, but there is something deeply flawed with the game industry's hiring/firing practices. If a game does well, its time to lay off half (or more) of the team. Same result happens if a game does poorly of course.

Is it just me, or does MTGox seem to be the BTC site that has the most problems? Maybe its just because of their size, but in comparison Coinbase and Blockchain have few problems.

Right, when did coding something at a hackathon as a proof of concept become a crime? Why does NJ think they have any jurisdiction here? Frankly, this is just as absurd as another country issuing demands for legal docs from someone in the U

7 minutes isn't enough, but I think its pretty amazing what you can do in 7 minutes. While there was a good 30 minute of skill-building and warmups first, doing exercises like Fran in Crossfit (Three rounds, 21-15- and 9 reps, for time

So why in the world does rent keep jumping through the ceiling in Boston, NYC and SF. Housing prices have gone up despite this 'bust' in real estate. I didn't see a single landlord in those cities drop (or hold) their rent, d

Right, even if my monthly outlay now seems high... in even 5 years I'm guessing it will seem reasonable. The apartment I lived in Back Bay 5 years ago was $900 before, and now its $1350.

The difficulty will increase, but the price may increase. I remember a year or two ago I was calculating all my BTC mining efforts on its value being under $30. Some efforts were break-even at sub-$30 exchange rates, but now in retrospect
