When will browsers start to implement these features? I'm looking forward to being able to use modules in Chrome.

When would you use 0mq vs Google's grpc? What are the main differences between them? I rarely hear them mentioned as alternatives to each other, but I haven't been able to grasp th…

What do you mean by "good rate of leverage"? You traded on margin at a low interest rate?

While most American do not live in rural areas, most Americans also do not live in urban areas. You need a car in the suburbs and that breakdown does not mention suburbs at all and…

Isn't that necessary though? If your surgeon is operating on you remotely, don't you want those packets prioritized over my LOL Cats download? It seems there are services that are …

This article is absolutely awful. I've never read anything more factually incorrect. "Free Press is concerned that Google's deal with Verizon to secure special internet privileges …

I just rinse them out in the sink after a run. And I sweat a lot.

I don't understand why people equate Google winning or losing with its net neutrality stance. Google has been hugely successful on the net. Surely it would be in their interest to …

It's odd that the tuition rates are the same. I went to a very expensive University and for many majors it made plenty of sense. The school probably could have charged twice as muc…

Agreed. I really didn't need to take those philosophy classes to become a software engineer.

The article says the stock has to be acquired after March 15, 2010, and before January 1, 2012. How does this play with vesting schedules? Is stock considered "acquired" when grant…

I hadn't seen http://zazzle.com/wedding+invitations before either, so now I'm curious how weddingtype.com would be different. It'd be good to think about a couple places where you …

agreed, but i wasn't the one to make that decision :o)

That's awesome!! Thank you! I just gave up my Windows machine for Ubuntu and F.lux was one of the things I missed most. Is there a .deb I can download directly? I don't think I can…

Yep, the two most basic things to do in any negotiation are start high since the price will only be negotiated down and develop your BATNA (best alternative offer).

It is often better for a company to raise money from the bond market, but only up to a point and only because of the tax implications. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trade-off_theory…

241 teachers were not fired over low test scores. 76 were fired for not having proper credentials. 165 were fired for poor performance which takes into account factors in addition …

I'm curious if anyone knows why it sounded like there was a jet engine in the background throughout the video? Was it just a bad recording or was there some reason why the room had…

Huh? The stock market absolutely has to do with allocating capital. It, together with the bond market, is the place where large companies go when they need to raise funds. Bond tra…

I can't speak to any particulars in this situation. I thought I would add that it's not necessary to know C++ (I don't :o). It is true that there are people who work on projects th…

One thing I think is interesting about this article is that it's written by a behavioral economics professor. I probably wouldn't have noticed if I didn't have so many friends who …

I imagine a browser plugin would have access to the entire content of any email you opened.

I'm not so sure it'd be that bad. California would get a greater voice in the Senate and thus receive back more of the tax dollars we pay federally (we currently receive far less t…

So it's immoral not to follow societal norms? Is it immoral to have a pink mohawk? I think you're right that there can be implicit agreements in place such as the agreement to tip …

I lose sleep over people suggesting it is unethical. That is buying in hook, line, and sinker to the propaganda these companies would like you to believe. Deciding not to service d…
