Has anyone done a rigorous experiment, even on just themselves, with f.lux or redshift? Sleep-monitoring wristband data + "did I see a screen, a red-shifted screen, or no screen" would be really interesting to me.
I understand that guns aren't hard to make - never mind 3D printing, any machinist can make a submachine gun. [1] But what about ammunition? http://www.scribd.com/doc/2624298/sten-mk2-complete-machine-...
Ever hear of a booster bag? [1] Faraday cages aren't hard to make. It wouldn't shock me if a gun locker blocked signals too. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booster_bag
On one hand, outsourcing rapidly transferred several decades of manufacturing and design knowledge to GE's soon-to-be competitors. (I haven't seen a Haier fridge on sale in the US yet but it's a matter of years, not…
Calories. Cheese has only about 60% the calories of a starting volume of milk. [1] Plus, animals can graze on land you can't farm, and they're very portable. [1]…

"There are more bikes offered for sale in Brooklyn than Manhattan, but only 8.3% of them are fixies versus 9.5% in Manhattan." This is key. Fixies as fraction of for-sale bike population <> prevalence of fixies…
One man's anchor is another's ball and chain. Lots of "binding' elements tend to imprison information by cluttering the screen. Edward Tufte seems like an influence on the redesign.…
I'm skeptical of the claim that a program could win a Pulitzer. How does it decide what to write about, who to interview, and what questions to ask? Reporting a day at the races or the markets is easy because we know…
I use Google Desktop dozens of times daily. I suspect lots of enterprise users are in the same XP boat without a fast search paddle.
