The article said nothing about playing music but rather listening to music. The difference is like saying I can learn through osmosis as opposed to I can learn through deliberate study and practice. If the article actually compared the be

The article brings some good points about habit formation: 1. Start with one habit, one part of life at a time 2. Create repeated, consistent incentives for abstaining from bad habits 3. In place of bad habits, put into practice positive be

I knew I recognized his sister. She starred in 'Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist.' Awesome, awesome movie.

You're right, and I had that very thought in mind that these are just allegations. And, anyone familiar with the justice system should be cognizant of that by default. My point is that she's seriously jeopardizing her career and everything

I respect and admire her courage and bravery to do what's right, in light of her career.

I'd like to see a reference for that statistic. I don't discredit the statistic, but I think it's bit misleading, because we're not able to dig into the data - even just a bit.

Kiva is a great company. They have been innovating since day 1, tapping into various industries. Last year, they put their robots on the floors of Boston Scientific's fulfillment center - a first for them in the highly-sensitive, highly-reg

I feel iffy about the film comparison. Because I have studied film formally in a limited context, I can say that there's a lot of planning, communication and collaboration that goes into creating a film, from storyboarding to script writing

There seems to be an undercurrent of resistance against student athletes, when keep in mind that even engineering schools have athletic programs. They are generally D3, but the athletes in these programs face a relatively demanding schedule

The difficulty in studying engineering is overrated. This article is describing a correlation, not a causation. If you're interested in what you're studying, spending extra time studying it isn't a chore. The engineering students I knew eit

I did some work with the public data sets. The data is stored (free of charge) via ebs (look at the EC2 instance) which persists to S3 but is not visible in or directly usable from your S3 directory. If you decide to transfer the data or ru

Valid suggestion, but I don't think a move makes up for the perceived inadequacies in the States. Bugs, after all, are to be fixed, not circumvented.

That's interesting. When would you use a supply & demand model versus network effects to explain a trend?

Or, the more people who can code, the less valuable the skill? Meh, or not.

Systemizer, why do you think that is that working with others helps us achieve our goals? I have generally believed that, too. But, on second thought, wouldn't having more people complicate planning thus thwarting progress?

At $50,000 v $27,700 for the Nissan Leaf, the Tesla S is also targeting a different type of buyer, too. The article is almost like comparing a Toyota Camry buyer with a Lexus GS 350 buyer - they're similar but not the same.

The article points out that one possible reason for the people's reluctance is distrust. In the case of the author, his family died because of a double agent. Who is to say that if you conspire with your fellow comrades to overthrow your le

Poor business fundamentals create poor business outcomes. Groupon needs to reevaluate itself, and if it must, downsize and regrow with a better product. Basically, Groupon needs to figure this out - or everyone else will - and it won't be g

Great profile, but it's a shame the author had to start with "Ernestine Fu, 20, is taking off her pants," as a sort of sexual innuendo (albeit witty and ironic one) to grab readers attention to this very successful young woman.
