Also, unlike 90% of starups; he actually has a business model.
This is exactly why patents exist. It's to stop predatory crap like that. You should use them and protect your corner of the market. VC will think twice about investing in copy-cat startups that are on legally shaky…
The "Old" refers to the medium of distribution. I have no idea what "Fast Company" is, but according to wikipedia it's a printed magazine.
There was a while in college I was like that. It's like you confuse your circadian rhythm enough that it stops bothering you. It was super convenient, but once you sleep the several days in the row it starts breaking…
Does anyone know how they communicate with the sub? My understanding is that radio waves can't penetrate water very far (if at all) and that it's impractical to drag a long cable down.
Strang's hand-wavy teaching style in my opinion kinda falls apart towards the later part of the course. I feel like the whole second half is kinda half baked. I didn't come away really having a good intuitive…
I dunno. That book is really dense and terse. It's a good reference book, but not something you'd read cover to cover.
Seems like a silly paradox. Why is it important? Also it seems very similar to this famous paradox: (from 600BC btw.) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epimenides_paradox
So this is a StumbleUpon for Reddit?
You're absolutely on track here The way he did it is nice and minimal, and in 2 months when you go back to change something you will have no idea what you did. I've had to do a few things in R and I always dread…
Out of curiosity, does anyone have any info on if Dropbox is profitable? I personally don't know anyone who actually pays for more space. Most people that use it are not tech savy and I don't think would take the leap…
Can anyone make an estimate on how much that would cost?
Naturally because it's on "simplecv.tumblr.com" this is pretty biased. But some glaring omissions 1) You can compile Matlab to C++ code which is much faster. 2) With respect to Portability there is the glaring omission…
In total it might be a lot, but it can't be indepth. for example "Error and Noise" is something you can spend a whole year studying. What are you really going to cover in one lecture? You'll just touch on a few things…
The course seems all over the place. You learn very little about a lot of things... The topics don't really seem to build on each other. I'm not sure that's a good thing.
Forget about superconductivity. How about flywheels?
The data on that graph looks bogus to me. I doubt they'd be able to assess per capita GDP year to year so accurately for the years before 1900. Take for example the Taiping Rebellion which was from 1850 to 1864.…
so without very high power sounds and the nonlinearity business the whole "Sound from Ultrasound" wouldn't work? Huh, I guess all this time I misunderstood it. for those curious…
I don't really know much about this, but wouldn't the 22kHz sounds potentially create beats in the lower frequencies?
As someone who actually has bro friends the author has no idea what he's talking about. He's completely misrepresenting bros and is regurgitating stereotypes. First he gets all pissy about stereotyping nerds as having…
I think you've got it backwards. There is definitely a degree of pride associated with being nerdy and non-social to the exclusion of "brogrammers". Try getting a technical job as with a popped collar. Even if you are…
Aren't you forgetting diffraction?
"The larger the corporation (by total employee count) the less nimble they become." That's because of antiquated management structures. Look at Gore and Associates (makers of Goretex) for a modern corporate structure.…
"I had a "gift" of being really creative and having my best ideas just before sleep, just waking up, and during insomnia episodes." This is called Hypnogogia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypnogogia The only way I can…
Soon they'll be paying us for our DNA! (for targeted advertisement etc.)
