This is outrageous but not surprising at all. In my opinion, more than a car safety issue, this is a money-making issue. EU pushes car manufacturers to build safer cars but this has a high cost. European customers respond well to marketing

Hahaha. I had the exact same reflection. I don't know much about Baseball either. When I was listening people talking about Baseball and referring to Yogi Bear, I thought it was a mascot of one of the teams. Anyway, RIP.

This article is so true. We evolved/improved in so many ways, especially technologically speaking but when it comes to parenting, we should go back to the basics. We know how to work, create an app, market a product... but when it com

Very nice article. I wasn't aware of most of those projects. I am especially interested to see the results of "World Wonders Project", "Solve for X", "Ingress" and "Google Sky". I am sure Google

Thanks for those links (Especially the last one). Resize.ly is just beta, so let's see what they come up with in the near future. On another hand, I hope there will be a resizing/compressing service inspired by Pied Piper (Silico

I am not surprised. Last time I was in New York, I wasn't in downtown and it was so hard for me to get a taxi. There are so many taxis in NYC but most of them stay in the same area. As soon as you are not in a populated area, it's

Very interesting approach. Choosing a company name is very important. I especially like the name-association part. I would just add 'meaning in foreign languages' because sometimes a company name can sound well in English but coul

Actually, I don't think anyone can blog well [You need to be able to write well, to express your ideas well and so on.]. The article says that everyone can start learning how to cook or to program by practicing but this doesn't m

So cool and so clever. It's well explained and it looks so easy. It proves that you don't always need great instruments/material to make something awesome. In your case, you didn't need to get a weatherproof inspection m

It sounds great and much more protective than passwords. You can't copy/imitate behaviors. However, I am wondering if the system still works if you are tired or sick. Your behavior might change in this case and therefore the syste

What a great story. It's so nice to see real philanthropists: people helping others before helping themselves. In the Tech industry, many startups claim they will make a change and make the world better when they actually think that th

This is why large companies should be more regulated. They should not be able to put pressure on labels or producers and get all the benefits. What Apple did by killing this startup is not ethical. Plus, by killing it, they tried to get a

Great post! I think those notes are not limited to engineers and designers tho. They are interesting for marketers, finance professionals... It could be called" "Career notes for everyone"

Maybe Uber doesn't make the Taxi service better yet but it will. Having new competitors will force taxis to improve their quality. This is true for any industry: as soon as new competitors enter, quality increases and/or prices ar

I never said that writing a program wasn't intellectual. I said that by using a program to solve your Sudoku problem, you would not think anymore. It's like if I win at Chess but I actually don't play, I just ask a program to

This is good to know that we can win Sudoku with a computer program but not surprising. The goal of Sudoku is to make your intellect work and find logic by yourself. The article should be named: How to win every Sudoku puzzle by cheating.

Airbnb is a great example of how date science, metrics, users feedback and growth hacking have been totally integrated to the marketing development of the service. Their amazing growth proved how important it is to focus on people more than

Electricity will become cheaper thanks to renewable energies (Solar, Wind...) and energy storage improvements (Batteries). But, I think we should point out that those energies represent large investments at first. For instance, building sol

You can't be big in China if you don't have local contacts. If you are a small startup or a small company, you are fine. But if you are a big one, you will be blocked unless you have political contacts. Then, once your company is

Uber is a great service and a great idea. However, they encounter many legal problems. I am not surprised that Hillary Clinton wants to move this industry... a bit like the French government does.

This is an old story. The answer is: this is a test image used in integration tests of Imgur itself.

He describes work as an annoying thing to do in order to live. If work becomes fun or ludic, then it's not work. I agree with this. If on Monday morning, you're pleased to join your colleagues and on Friday, you'd rather have

Animated transitions are great but designers have to be careful to not make the app/product/software too complicated. Sometimes, designers just want the product to be so beautiful but this makes it complicated and it loses speed.

I honestly think that all images should stay on Wikipedia. In my opinion, there will be less and less copyright infringement about pictures. Websites use the more and more the fact that they use images as "fair use". This is not r

I don't think the problem is the usability, the problem is that they don't propose anything new. I remember Steve Jobs saying something like we should not copy others but we have to do things different. With Apple Music, they jus

I would say 50K is required to live well in London and 20K as a minimum salary. 500K as a minimum is ridiculous.

I personally don't think that dropbox supporting Linux make them successful. I would love to see the percentage of Dropbox users using Linux (I guess it's very low). Dropbox is successful because they had great PR and marketing st
