The problem with this (at least in theory) is that unless US schools devote as much time to learning mandarin, or spanish for that matter, as chinese and taiwanese schools spend teaching english the effort is useless. I have studied mandar

There is something to be said for the power of litigation. Presumably this guy does not have millions of dollars to spend fighting legal battles for the next ten years no matter how much the evidence is in his favor. Facebook and Zuckerber

I know you kid, but there is a lot to be said for the fact that lack of margin leads to corruption. ie, the best way to discourage this kind of behavior would be to create some sort of noticeable difference in value from one model to the n

"In an age when nations have become so large that their citizens no longer identify with distant governments..." What? it would seem like the complete opposite of this is true. I would say that nationalism and national identity, in the US

I totally agree that html/css with js and maybe even some basic php if they are up for it is the way to go. Sure html and css aren't languages, but couple them with javascript and a complete novice can make quite a few dynamic pages (read p

The down voting is really strange. If he is Israeli, and in his mid twenties then he has already served in the IDF, likely in a CS capacity. Also if he was Sherut Leumi, then I wouldn't think he would apply for a military contract job in t

Don't think it's Israel, he would have already spent time in the military if he was Israeli.

Lenovo is still pretty solid, though decreasing is quality pretty rapidly. I could probably name for you their 5 or 6 thinkpad brands (s,w,t,r,... well apparently I can only name 4) but I couldn't for the life of me tell you the difference

I only skimmed the article so they might have covered this, but I would think that this comparison would, at least in theory, hold true for any two substances. Pressure is pressure. No liquid is going to react differently to pressure appli

This was a great article if for no other reason than that it just helped me diagnose my insomnia. Knew my symptoms but didn't know the name for my particular type. And F.lux seems like a great first step. Thanks

While I wouldn't entirely disagree with you, I think the analogy needs a little tweaking. To my mind, it's not that the act of a girl looking for a rich guy and a guy looking for an attractive girl are the same act so much as it is that mor

Maybe I just wasn't being clear, I'll try and elaborate. Both public schools and charter schools are publicly funded. Usually the difference in the two is that charter schools get less funding per pupil in exchange for not having to adhere

Great article, but it completely misunderstands the point of charter schools. Charter schools are suppose to be a testing ground for new methods in public school administration. If a charter school is successful, it's methods are suppos

I didn't want to side track to discussion into an argument over whether laymen can think critically about complex issues or not but this is kind of a ridicules accusation. There is a great difference between not trusting experts (what you a

Why? How many times has this attitude been proven pointless and ineffective? As I understand it one of the great things about "startup cultures" is the utilization of the outsider's prospective. Why can't that mentality be applied to this

That was kind of my point in creating this thread. While there are some complex elements in play here and it is a problem with many technicalities to it, there aren't THAT many elements to worry about at I understand it. You have water pr

So to get started, my uneducated suggestion is that they put a giant cylinder over the leak so as to at least contain the oil as it rises to the surface. I understand the problems with depth and pressure so ideally there is some fabric that
