There are some rare use cases, but I think it would have a negative impact on my own life. 1. I'd question the security, is there going to be an exploit where someone can intercept signals to the door, and then use them to open or clos

Apparently you can trick an octopus if you use high definition video, so the display is obviously visible to them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zmzfxFF5vDI

My dog never saw a mirror in his life, he lived outdoors, and aside from a puddle, he would never have an opportunity to see his own reflection. One day I had a fullsize mirror outside. I walked my dog infront of it, pointed to it, tried to

Of course, no one here started off as an average or expert developer, we were all beginners writing awful code at one point in our lives. I think you need to consider two main attributes when hiring... 1. Does this person have the right min

I think of the radio similar to television. For example, I can have any tv show and movie at my finger tips, but sometimes it's nice just to turn on the tv. There's something enjoyable about letting someone else make the choice. I

Mozilla doesn't have a choice. Let's say Firefox has 30% of users. The argument is that sites will not use DRM, because they'll be losing revenue from 30% of their users, and therefore Mozilla saves the day. But, what happens

Are there any good documentaries about Bill Gates, and his philanthropy work? I remember seeing TED talks, and a number of short videos and articles, but are there any more substantial videos covering this recent work and upcoming goals?

I gave up on BuySellAds, they turned me down three times without reason. My site gets more traffic then any other sites they have in that same niche, it follows all of their rules (nothing adult related or inappropriate), and it's bett

I wish I had his click-through rates. I earn about $50/day from AdSense, sending them a million impressions. POF earned $2,500 for that same number.

Chrome for Windows is one of the most common setups for browsing the internet, so this isn't an edge case situation. That post originated in 2009, over 4.5 years ago. It's good to hear it might be finally addressed, but I wouldn&#

Chrome doesn't render Google web fonts well, it's been that way for as long as I remember. It's a known issue, and it's been reported countless times. You would expect this to be high priority, since reading text in the

If I had to give any advice, it would be to run through ideas quickly. If they're not gaining traction, or they're a struggle to grow, drop them and move on to the next idea. This isn't going to be true for everyone, but each

Terrain mode is still there, you just have to type Terrain in the search bar, and it'll switch the view. Then X out of the search to return to the normal map view. Otherwise, if you click the input box, you should get a terrain butto

I don't think it's 'hipsters' or young designers in general. I think situations like this happen when a bunch of people sit down in a room, and draw something up on a whiteboard. They draw all kinds of flow charts, sales

It seems like it would be relatively easy to test out. People donate blood all the time. I'm sure the effects are known of how much blood you can replace at once without causing issues. Without a doubt some elderly people would volunte

Then you're just applying random votes, instead of actual votes. For example, something that should be 15-2 votes, ends up being 95-82. You'll be applying a large number of votes to both sides, and pushing everything towards a 50&

You don't want to force people to do anything, otherwise it skews the results. Force someone to vote for 30 seconds, or to vote 10 times, and they'll just sit there tapping the first picture until they reach their target. You'

One problem. People what spend $300 on a keyboard are quite familiar with computers. This is the same group of people that types and uses shortcuts without ever looking at their keyboard, so the benefit is highly reduced.

Don't use Lijit, ever. I was running them as backup to my Adsense, sending them nearly a million impressions a day. They run all sorts of malicious advertisements, and apparently they approve of them. My users were getting redirected f
