The Athenians would say that we do not have a democracy but an oligarchy. The only way that they saw to actually make the government the will of the people was to select representation by sortition, i.e. drawing by lot,…
Just really fresh I think. Backyard chicken eggs from my coworker are like this. I don't know what the big deal about the firmness of the yolk is, but I'm not a pro chef. Tastes like an egg to me. When she gives me…
Ok, these guys claim to have invented a great engine, really just the pre-cooler. Why are they trying to build a plane instead of licensing it to others? That seems to be several orders of magnitude more difficult and…
Firefox OS on the otherhand is HTML.
I use antennaepod, but I think it's far from perfect.
New Zealand, Australia, and to a lesser extent Sweden all have vast areas with very low, near zero population densities. Could that be impacting the deliverability?
Google is both dominating smart phones and search at the moment. The examples given were of particular products that superseded other products. Is there a product that going to supersede Google Search or Android? If…
that's awesome. It's a one line REPL.
that seems overly complicated for ruby if a is a file. c = []; a.lines{c << a.pos} As far as $, you may know it from Regex as the new line indicator.
The article also says that just 17% of walks are made for the pleasure of walking. That sounds like a good number to me, should I expect a third of the people I see to be going nowhere?
you still end up loading the gigantic image to go on a tiny screen, so you consume a lot of memory on a mobile device for no-gain.
I agree. I would actually prefer if the test subjects were considered new to all students, and they were expected to become experts in those subjects before taking the test. What you need to score for is the ability to…
why not both?
I can't believe that they would pay $400M for a company without getting something more than just talent. They must have created something very impressive that will be able to plug into the Borg.
To me, simulations always seemed to fall into a nice place for concurrent programming with messaging. In that case, the abstractions are not as numerous as when forcing things into a single threaded world.
I think the popularity of url shorteners shows that people are willing to click on links where they have no idea what is lurking behind an unintelligible string. As for the apple site, there are other (better) systems…
Any idea why it would be $20?
In the future, psychologists will ask, "Why don't you point to the meme that matches your feelings about that?" Seriously, in some of the most-heavily travelled corners of the internet, its endless image-macros filled…
What makes you think that your brain may not be 'poorly written' for supporting 24 hr+ uptime? Think of the brain has having bad garbage collection or a memory leak, so at some point in time you have too much built up…
The article acts like there's a chance that Boeing is in serious trouble, but the US government has programs to prevent the loss of defense manufacturing capabilities. The status quo is, if a product is not needed in…
It's about Ruby conditionals, but they didn't talk about my favorite part. eat_gruel unless has_parents? puts "Please sir, I want some more" if shortest_straw?
The rule for me is to give the least information required for the interaction to take place. If someon is considering me for a job, it's reasonable to give my full name. If someone just wants to chat with my on reddit,…
I'm not sure that people will go through this app and pay another $6 on top of the original shipping fee, and enter an oddball shipping address. They may pay it if it's an option at checkout, as at that point they are…
The N9 and WebOS were the first that I remember with the swipe gesture based interface, but BB10 is a much better OS than people give it credit for.
I think the watching TV thing has to do with a TV connected to your WIFI network. I've experienced what you're talking about though with the flight cards. I'm anxious so I want to know that my flight information is…
