    If this can really map prime numbers to a least a general region, would we be able to break Diffie-hellman key exchange more quickly? If so this could be a huge blow to security. B…

    Luck is important, but luck doesn't come to those that sit on their ass.

    It sounds like you are in the dip. See Seth Godin's book on this subject. https://www.amazon.ca/dip-Seth-Godin/dp/1591841666 I was in a very similar situation for one of my startup…

    Darn, I was hoping to buy some of these and create a fake account to see how many followers I could accumulate, kind of like "Ultra superficial".

    Will they put it back? I mean I can't imagine them holding 7 million gallons of water per day for very long before they run out of storage space. My guess is that they will process…

    I can sense the skepticism in the comments, but this is amazing news! All those people suffering from lack will have a chance to take part in our modern abundance. I can only imagi…

    That's a tough one... I guess it would make it better, but I'm not sure about how the taxes and relationship with the company would play out...

    I'm starting to notice this trend as well. I felt it was much easier to land a job in tech 2.5 years ago when I was last looking. Maybe we are reaching a point of too many engineer…

    I'm surprised they were able to reattach the nerves as well. Isn't that something that can't be reattached after being severed. If nerve reattachment now is possible, can't we cure…

    I'm surprised no one mentioned bitcoin mining... this would be great to capture the excess low grade heat and change it back into electricity.

    I spent days almost 10 hours, completing a massive interview project for one company. I submitted a fully working solution, had unit test, was pixel perfect, and they didn't even g…

    Would you use the service if it was 3x more expensive?

    We have a similar practice in Chinese culture, after a woman gives birth, they must take baths with ginger for a few weeks. My mother in-law actually spent hours cutting up enough …

    FYI, I ran the benchmark with power from wall and with out, and got the same performance. It appears to check battery life before deciding core speed.

    I just ran Geekbench with it plugged in. Got the same crappy performance with an iPhone 6, getting 1000, when it should be 1400. Here I was hoping a battery case would do the trick…
