Sticks and Brains - Palo Alto - iOS Engineer - Remote Possible Looking for an experienced iOS engineer to help us iterate on our bluetooth-powered messaging application: Lynk Messe…

SEEKING FREELANCERS -- Remote OK (We're based in Hong Kong, something within a few time-zones is preferable) We're a mobile communications startup based out of HK (both founders ar…

Lynk is a messaging app that uses Bluetooth to identify all other users around you and lets you direct message them or create group chats of any size. It's not anonymous or mass gr…

This article does nothing to convince me that singing or playing math games with my young kids has a causal link to better math, science, or reading performance. Those both seem li…

The article you link to and quote, while saying grades are less important than Google thought, goes on to say that progressive Google after doing this study and at least partially …

Any citations for this? I can buy that this is the case for some jobs, from some school districts, for many students, across a certain distribution of grades, some number of years …

Same with the iPhone 4s, though it tried to download the .js file first and didn't start working until I hit back. Load time was also much longer on the iPhone 4 over the same conn…

I built a somewhat similar product http://www.dexy.tv but it only links to 'legit' content (netflix, hulu, amazon, etc). nddrylliog, send me an email if you're interested in potent…

Without patents, drug research and development would have to be nationalized. The costs are enormous and drug prices drop 90% in the US after patent expiration. I would rather have…

Is it just me or does an inflatable space station sound terrifying. It seems like it would be very fragile if it collided with any fast-moving debris.

> Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof. This clearly states that the powers must be explicitly vested …

I'm not sure if I exactly understand your solution. Would you be lightly squishing the contents of the bag with the spring plates while sealing the front? It also seems possible th…

The article didn't actually give any evidence as to why Opsware was a bad purchase for HP, and according the comments in the article the product still exists and has simply been re…

Netscape's core was reborn as Firefox. Netscape invented the image tag, along with much of what we consider essential to what the internet is today. Most here would probably attest…

Some jobs are better suited to learning than others. Whether it's working at a public library, being a night-shift security guard, or any other job that would allow you access to a…

This may seem like another one of those trite responses you mentioned, but I would second the notion that "you can do anything you put your mind to" and that you should keep up the…

I don't mean discussing it, I mean that doing it would be. In particular, it seems like a dramatic length to me because an outside entity would never be able to tell the difference…

It's all pretty theoretical at the moment, as is all of quantum computing. No quantum computer with more than a few qubits has been made, and none that are actually faster at any g…

You can use fewer photons/electrons/etc to transmit the same amount of information. A qubit's state is a continuum (a superposition) instead of just on or off. If you can entangle …

Nothing that you would consider usable information, referred to as 'classical information', can be transmitted via quantum entanglement. There is 'quantum information' in the state…

The article may be misleading to those not familiar with quantum teleportation. It doesn't have anything to do with instant messages across the galaxy. "That means it would be poss…
