VR. Next two years are going to be pretty stagnant. The resolutions, etc. just are still enthusiast tier. But 10 years time? We could be seeing the beginning of the end of TVs, sma…

Oh man, I hadn't thought of this before but yeah I'd funnel a few quid to the right guys. Like Koan Sound are late on releasing their first full album, I'd pay to even just get an …

Yeah they introduced ads in the past few months. Already looking for alternatives that have some resemblance of my existing SC library because of it. I will mourn the loss of SC as…

It can me infinite collisions. It does not matter. Conservation of momentum still applies. The system of collisions only have a finite amount of energy. And it's chaotic rather tha…

Between 6 months and 4 years ideally. 25 years max. If you can't prove reentry within 25 years in simulations you do not fly on the rocket at all in the first place.

You're right. It's not. At least there if I post something a conversation usually happens. Here, I post something and, at best, I get one reply total. While Reddit indeed has a loa…

The rise, and hardening, of dildonic security

Spain has just come out last week and said that they are OK with Scotland joining the EU as long as England has signed of on Scotland leaving the UK first and the independence proc…

I've not been paying attention to 3D printing for quite a while now. Which companies are ruling the roost of desktop 3D printing these days?

Here in Ireland anyway for a university to be accredited at all ethics has to be part of the engineering curriculum. First Semester of our first year we got a dedicated ethics clas…

Regulation. Having a full record of important conversations to fall back to for legal reasons is a big part of both corporate and governmental policies. Clinton's emails being dele…

The best businesses need to raise less money because they can fund themselves via profit or manage burn rate to a high degree via cost cutting. If you don't do one of those, you wi…

A vast swathe of "the gamer audience" is on mobile though. The bulk of the numbers are people playing the likes of Candy Crush and Temple run, not COD or Halo. Just the ones who fl…

I don't want a Jaybird so that's not a winning argument for why I would want these. I'm comparing them to my $90 noise cancelling over ear headphones that, while yes no exactly top…

It's not just you. That's why there have been so much M&A. Interests rates are low so getting loans to buy out your competition. In a time when VC money has (relatively) dried up a…

Photovoltaics. AKA Solar panels

Until relativity and the standard model can be merged and we can figure out a cause and effect between gravity and other fundamental forces and figure out who to trigger gravity wi…

I would imagine as the average height increases, from a product design point of view, cars, planes, etc. will become more accommodating for people who would be considered very tall…

I dunno, the trade part of Eve is fairly numbers and text heavy

I believe the term is vampires. That concept has been around for quite a long long time...

The three usual metrics that are used are "Team", "Market" and "Product" with investors focusing more on one or the other. I'm fairly certain that investors who focus on team and m…

I would argue that the idea is not quite mainstream yet outside the tech community. The tech community though is very concerned about UBI as we see automation barrelling down the l…

4 and 5 are clearly not aligned. If they were, there wouldn't be the support that there currently is in volume for anti immigration rhetoric and policy.

Carmack tends to not particularly care what the business side are up to. He wants to focus on pushing the tech forward and not get bogged down with the office politics or PR spinni…

Well I can't speak for many countries but Irish police figures are slightly more flattering with 8 people shot by police in total over 15 years. http://www.independent.ie/irish-new…
