I was reading the comments and someone asked the author about the energy invention he was talking about: "Since I signed an NDA, I’m not able to give you details. But what I will say is that I’ve looked at hundreds of energy related inventi

I'm not sure about your prediction. I have been hearing impaired since birth, and I wear hearing aids. However, I 'evolved' to lip-read and read body language. School was invaluable to me, for making friends, figuring out how to deal with j

I love Wolfram Alpha and I'm definitely excited to trial the 'pro' version. I find it more helpful for looking up conversions, anything to do with money/finance and looking for a short history on stuff. It's quite exciting watching what the

I believe they carry guns to all arrests where the person is known to be a violent offender. I've witnessed this many times. Never seen them draw their weapon though. However, the way this arrest was carried out is completely over the top.

As a New Zealander, I'm not quite sure what to think. I really don't think he should be extradited to the United States, rather his trial be held here. (I believe justice will be served more fairly here... no $250,000 per download crap - bu

I might be biased, I currently work in the healthcare industry down in ol' New Zealand. I must say, the state of some of the software that's being used widely nationwide is absolutely atrocious . Wherever you live in the world - if you mak

I love the idea, but I can't help but thinking this would work so much better if the UI was better designed and aimed more at children...

I think you're barking up the wrong tree. This is _not_ borderline offensive. Don't be silly. It might be a stupid oversight, but yeah I think you're getting a bit offended by nothing.

That was an amazing read. I chuckled at this bit though: "But selling drugs was the best preparation I could have asked for, entering the real world. Now equipped to handle situations that it takes others years to prepare for. More than any

I've suffered from depression, and random crap like insomania. For years, I'd rely on the doctor and follow the medications. These just made my life and sleep much worse. Then one day, I ate a cookie that had been cooked with marijuana. Suf

Does it need structural options? At work, I'm supposed to change a lot of our existing websites over to "Wordpress CMS" because it'll make it easier for the admin staff to modify the website, for updates and such. The problem is, they nee

No. Privacy is what you make it to be. If you don't want someone to know you like to rub lettuce over your face, don't tell anyone. The same principal works for real life too.

When I was growing up, I was always told never to put your real information on the Internet. As I grew older, I simply changed around my "real" details a bit. So, my Facebook does not have my real identity, I like stuff that... I don't like

I must admit I'm bad at this. However, in my defense it comes down to: bad management. I'm forever being told to work on the next MOST IMPORTANT THING EVER only to be told after a few days that I need to work ON THE NEXT MOST IMPORTANT THIN

Yes. You're quite correct. This application will be centered to places where data is cheap/free. Definitely not for Australians, New Zealanders etc. With $41 million, you'd have thought they could execute anything. I thought everyone had a

I'm half expecting them to go the same route as Matthew Sobol in the Daemon series: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daemon_(technothriller_series) For clarification, maybe not take over the world per se, but definitely go along the same line
