I used the friends/foes on /., but never thought much about it. Filtered out a number of vocal nutcases. But wouldn't this sort of create your own cozy echo chamber, where all opinion is streamlined? I think it would be inter

That is strange. Even as a Swede I would probably value a Billy more if it came pre assambled, so I was not made actively aware of low quality materials and holes drilled in not-quite-the-right places. Maybe a cultural thing. I always got t

Wonder if it would be plausible having light sensors on a tablet and base shadows on the room's available light? Having a table flat on a surface and have UI "shadows" move around with light changes would likely be a pretty i

It is a sad sign of the times, you can no longer (easily) set up an email server of your own and expect emails to be delivered to everyone. Managing O365 for a few domains I quite frequently see mail from not-so-small companies with their o

Interesting and slightly scary train of thought. When will AIs be able to form a strategy and think visionary enough to replace a CEO?

Yes, very condescending, in the same way Neanderthals were seen as primitive cave men until hard evidence showed they were at least as advanced as modern humans in many ways. Also, this is a completely different species of human. A bit pres

>ZDNet clarified with Microsoft that the app is not just for Office 365 users, as the original blog post about the launch seemed to imply. Instead, anyone with a Microsoft account can use To-Do, even if they don’t have an Office 365 plan
