Anyone working for Google care to explain?

This documentary is great, I thought I knew the Tetris story, but this filled in every blank.

You can see the unregulated AI in the cryptocurrency markets. I wonder what the profits have been so far. People have invested in faster internet trunks for trading ages ago, just …

I liked the "tracking the dust in your phone" part. Hehe

An interesting article for sure. I sure wouldn't have predicted what happened to digg.com. Also with automatic videos playing on so many sites, mixed with bandwidth limitations set…

Will Intel release it as a patch/firmware for those of us who have hardware by OEMs that aren't likely to offer anything?

Prime is just a sunk cost. You think, "Hey, I have prime!" and order from Amazon. "I was going to anyway" you think. You stop price checking. Amazon is far from the cheapest place …

I wouldn't think so with fingerprinting, intel ME and individual processor IDs and such. I was just giving an extreme example for true anonymity now, something we just sort of had …

I guess the future is a ten-pack of cheap netbooks, a linux live CD, and free public wi-fi. Access the internet, then smash the entire thing and throw it away and repeat.

Those 10gb Seagates have to be pretty new still. I'm curious about them over time. It would be nice if that's one like their old pre 2006 hdds that hardly ever failed.
