One bad idea leads to another. Selling information by the bit is a bad idea.
I don't think either the PC or tablets in their current forms will be the productivity tool of the future. The floor's open to new contenders that can help people deal with data and complexity.
Well, that's how physics works. Physics is stupefyingly strict about its methods. Most sciences don't put quite as much value into models. The problem is that in a desire to strictly follow the method, physicists have…
In all other sciences, if you find a model that predicts something as self-contradictory as a black hole or dark matter, you shrug, figure your assumptions are wrong, and start over. In physics you announce the…
Yes you must. Everyone should want to be like Elon Musk.
A quick collapse of the price would be best for everyone, except for the "muppets" who bought FB shares in the IPO. Especially for Facebook, who would otherwise see an exodus of employees who can make more in terms of…
Not wrong. Facebook and the investors that sold stock in the IPO got $38*the number of shares. Whatever happens after the IPO is essentially irrelevant to them, except their remaining shares have gone down in market…
The catch is: that is not true.

I always wonder what obvious truth about the universe we fail to see because of just such an event in our past.
Actually, I think information theory is the only branch of science that has something genuinely useful to say about computers. Unfortunately, it has few people working on it in the context of computer systems. The world…
I think the world record in questionable speculation was broken here.
End of the article: "PS: Amazon was nice enough to refund the bandwidth charges, as they considered this activity accidental and not intentional. Thanks TK!"
What if Facebook is now being used by nearly all Internet users? Should you expect it to keep growing? No. Is it bad for business? Hell no.
Probably something like that. One problem with the Public folder is that people can easily guess URLs to files you might not want to share with them. I recall http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1/test.png used to show a wireframe…
This has been possible using the Dropbox API for quite a while now. Is the announcement that they added it to the context menu?
Sure, many software engineers are over their creative prime by the time they hit 40 and move into management, training, recruiting, etc. With 15-20 years experience in the complexities of software engineering under the…
Stowe was just speaking at AWS summit, lots of AWS goodness there: http://aws.amazon.com/live/
"80% of the funds collected are dispersed to the software vendor and AWS Marketplace charges a service fee of 20%." https://aws.amazon.com/marketplace/help/200904140/ref=help_l...
Nginx 0.8 with support. Sure, 1.0.15 would be better, but enterprises generally care more about support than about having the latest version (see Red Hat).
So suddenly you can have managers telling their sysadmins they've set up a new SQL server? That's pretty big.
"Everything is worth what its purchaser is willing to pay for it"
I think the simultaneous rise of successful social networks like Facebook played an incredibly large role in making people want to have the Internet with them all the time.
Seems like sarcasm.
Works for me in Ireland.
