There's a capstone electrical and computer engineering course at my university where the students have to complete a very similar project: http://ece545.com/F12/index.html The NES is a popular choice, but many other game consoles and comp

Yes, "like" is much less awkward because it actually makes sense to say "I like your picture" and doesn't make sense to say "I plus one your picture". On your second point, I don't think Facebook was filled with geeks, it was filled with a

Haha, I agree that the keynote was at times extremely awkward and hard to sit through, but I have to say I enjoyed how casual it was. Compared to something like an Apple presentation, where it seems like there's 0 room for error or for tang

I don't know what point these reviews serve now. we all know the facts, we can all draw conclusions. I don't need to read 5,000 words to tell me that the phone is pretty, feels good, has a bigger screen, but maybe it's too big, is quick,

It looks like the board uses some kind of modified orangatang wheels, and possibly other custom parts. Long board parts need to be replaced occasionally due to natural wear-and-tear. Will the replacement parts be sold through Boosted? Ho

What exactly will/could change between the 1st, 2nd, and final production runs? The board is compelling, and it does fill a spot that I and many students likely have, but unless the price comes down I don't see how this will take off. edit

I don't think the two ideas you are talking about are mutually exclusive. I type and edit code faster in vim, and I'm able to accomplish tasks and put down my thoughts faster as well. One lets me accomplish the other, and vice versa.

Like many people have said, this is very anecdotal. Not all drop outs are as motivated or as capable as you seem to be. At the same time, neither are all college graduates. However, graduating from a top 5 cs program will at least ensure
