Just for the record, the "flat Earth" stuff is mostly a myth pushed by latter generations to make earlier generations look and sound dumb.

The closest thing I know about, that's close to what you are talking about, is the wait calculation. Basically, if you assume that the velocity we can attain grows exponentially, and if you do a calculation, you'll find a "be

It says right in the very first line of the article: > On June 26, 2008, our friend Michael Seibel introduced us to 7 prominent investors in Silicon Valley. Therefore, the answer to your question is: in this particular encounter they tal

> nothing more than just a brand I think that's quite the understatement. But then, one could easily say this about most big brands, no? Brand happens to be really really important.

Let's do a sanity check on this. Cloud height is at about 60,000 feet maximum (in the tropics http://www.srh.noaa.gov/jetstream/clouds/height_max.htm ). Let's be generous and say this is 20 km maximum hei

Would you care to expand on what makes you such an outlier? Would another person be able to go along in your footsteps?

One possible way of generating such images is to use more images since a lot of sport photos seem to be taken as part of a burst sequence. All you need is two such photos where the ball has moved over enough and the rest shouldn't be d

I have to humbly disagree with you here. Estimation problems are quite important in science. When dealing with computers and algorithms, a quick back-of-the-envelope calculation can illuminate a lot of things. Maybe your algorithm is runnin
