I always bookmark these idea mining threads, has anyone ever made use of them? My though, because I haven't, is that if you want to essentially work on someone else's idea then go …

Thanks for the information. Does dark matter ever enter the discussion in terms of "there isn't even close to enough asymmetry to explain the amount of matter and the lack of antim…

Completely. I erroneously assumed this was referring to startups, which would make a great article.

Well, living in a highly militarized US city that sees vendors come in for various presentations regularly, not only is "lethality" a word that businesses use to sell, but also one…

How is that women's fault that your dad was obviously not around and you that's why you hold this asinine view? As a fellow man, grow a pair of fucking balls and ask what you can d…
