'"For my part, I will never give up and I mean never," Musk said.' I found this to be a great article to re-read in retrospect. His determinism is truly applicable to everyone's lives.

I don't think the two need to be mutually exclusive. Why can't high quality medicinal practices be coupled with lower costs if there's not reason for the costs to be higher? That was my question. Just accepting high costs and

Is it justifiable to assume that the cost of health care has been rising to approximately match the quality and technological improvement worldwide? Or is it more likely that the cost has sky-rocketed out of proportion with the quality of h

I agree. I scrobble to last.fm and usually just dig around the similar artists area whenever I find new music. Finding IDs of tracks I enjoy on mixes are also another source for my library.

"Petroleum-derived pitch is black in colour, hence the adjectival phrase, 'pitch-black'." That was the most interesting thing I found in this experiment.

Honestly I would like to see some spectacular failures. Just as Gwynne stated recently, if SpaceX doesn't generate a few craters with this program during testing it means they aren't trying as hard as they can. I'm glad Grass

Shameless self-promotion while also using the same service you denounce. Why did you post your criticism of Medium on Medium? You wanted a larger audience to hear your opinion. That's what the majority of writers on services like Mediu

I had been a long-time premium user of Rapidshare through it's peak in 2007 to 2009 or so. Their service was wonderful (or so it seemed) until almost nobody used it anymore. The business model that Rapidshare held on to is clearly failing t
