    Just as an FYI, the designer of the Minority Report UI/UX created a company ( http://www.oblong.com ) and actually built the system. Boeing (my former company) actually has a paten…

    First, not all of the choices will work for each person. Its a bit of a science experiment so don't get discouraged if the first medication you try doesn't work very well. I also r…

    "I'd also argue that _people_ aren't a bunch of automatons who use computer interfaces simply to accomplish tasks. A "gorgeous" UI can make an otherwise mundane task (e.g., looking…

    I've only been using 10.9 for a few hours but I have already noticed that some of the unnecessary decoration was removed. Notepad, the notification sidebar, launcher, widgets scree…

    I actually had a discussion with my doctor on this very subject. He was complaining that he could not actually advertise prices as it is apparently considered price fixing if docto…

    "The challenge of these leaks is exacerbated by a lack of public understanding of the safeguards in place and little awareness of the outcomes that our authorities yield." This is …

    I personally have been waiting for the chance to play with Oblong's g-speak ever sense I learned about it while at Boeing. It will be fun to see what the developer community at lar…

    When working with engineers from Israel, I still hear the term "MMI" used frequently. They use it the same way I would use "HMI" here in the states.

    If you look at the other twitpic photos, you will see one talking about "BoomGraph". I have never heard of it, but it seems to sit on top of Raphael and produces these charts.

    "I'll likely drop out after getting the discrete math, algorithms and other math-intensive courses I likely would not study on my own." I think that statement right there is why de…

    So very true. At the company (very large defense contractor) we have to ask the same questions to every applicant. We can't ask follow on questions or deviate from the pre-defined …

    Actually if you read his post from a day ago, you will see him state he stopped the open access point. He took steps to stop what he thought was the issue. It was not until the cap…

    Well since he just bet the company on WP7 you can't expect him to say anything else. If MeeGo is going somewhere then that undermines his MS deal. That said, It appears that there …

    I thought the same thing. It would be a huge slap in the face if the N9 turns out to be very popular. This leak feels like "damage control". Which seems silly, there is no reason y…

    At the end of the day, College is what you make of it. No one can force you to really get involved, participate in team projects etc. You have to have the internal drive to make th…

    So is the issue here that they have not packaged it up for people and put it on opensource.apple.com? Is the source not available in the official repository at webkit.org?

    I agree with you there, that was pretty ridiculous when I first saw they were attempting to do that. I will say though, I don't believe that was necessarily to force people to buy …

    Controlling the ecosystem it created is not anti-competitive. There seems to be confusion over not being able to distribute apps on Apple's platform, and not being able to compete …
