Just as an FYI, the designer of the Minority Report UI/UX created a company ( http://www.oblong.com ) and actually built the system. Boeing (my former company) actually has a patent using the system to control a swarm of UAVs

First, not all of the choices will work for each person. Its a bit of a science experiment so don't get discouraged if the first medication you try doesn't work very well. I also recommend that you ask to try a set of them to det

"I'd also argue that _people_ aren't a bunch of automatons who use computer interfaces simply to accomplish tasks. A "gorgeous" UI can make an otherwise mundane task (e.g., looking up which recipes to cook) into som

I've only been using 10.9 for a few hours but I have already noticed that some of the unnecessary decoration was removed. Notepad, the notification sidebar, launcher, widgets screen, etc have been toned down.

I actually had a discussion with my doctor on this very subject. He was complaining that he could not actually advertise prices as it is apparently considered price fixing if doctors do that (or so he says). He also told me he would be st

"The challenge of these leaks is exacerbated by a lack of public understanding of the safeguards in place and little awareness of the outcomes that our authorities yield." This is a self inflicted wound that they are refusing to a

I personally have been waiting for the chance to play with Oblong's g-speak ever sense I learned about it while at Boeing. It will be fun to see what the developer community at large does with it.

When working with engineers from Israel, I still hear the term "MMI" used frequently. They use it the same way I would use "HMI" here in the states.

If you look at the other twitpic photos, you will see one talking about "BoomGraph". I have never heard of it, but it seems to sit on top of Raphael and produces these charts.

"I'll likely drop out after getting the discrete math, algorithms and other math-intensive courses I likely would not study on my own." I think that statement right there is why degrees are still valuable. To earn your degree you will have

So very true. At the company (very large defense contractor) we have to ask the same questions to every applicant. We can't ask follow on questions or deviate from the pre-defined question list. It was deemed legally unfair to ask differ

Actually if you read his post from a day ago, you will see him state he stopped the open access point. He took steps to stop what he thought was the issue. It was not until the cap was broken a second time that he realized it was his back

Well since he just bet the company on WP7 you can't expect him to say anything else. If MeeGo is going somewhere then that undermines his MS deal. That said, It appears that there are two factions in Nokia. One pushing MeeGo and one push

I thought the same thing. It would be a huge slap in the face if the N9 turns out to be very popular. This leak feels like "damage control". Which seems silly, there is no reason you can't release phones with WP7 and MeeGo. The release o

As a commercial license holder with 7 years experience that would make my day. However, we should approach this a bit differently. The question should not be will Nokia's first wp7 phone run qt apps. It should be will we be able to develo

In my case, my business partner was my college roommate. We also have made a lot of contacts through school that continue to benefit us. Your classes are not the only thing about school that will help you in the future. Like I said in a

At the end of the day, College is what you make of it. No one can force you to really get involved, participate in team projects etc. You have to have the internal drive to make the most of your opportunity. It is also getting annoying to

QML is the logical progression for UI/UX design. Its going to make it easier to build innovative user interfaces and I fully believe you will still be able to build apps that look and feel just like the traditional QWidget based interfaces

So is the issue here that they have not packaged it up for people and put it on opensource.apple.com? Is the source not available in the official repository at webkit.org?

I agree with you there, that was pretty ridiculous when I first saw they were attempting to do that. I will say though, I don't believe that was necessarily to force people to buy macs to develop. I think that by keeping people on the sam

Controlling the ecosystem it created is not anti-competitive. There seems to be confusion over not being able to distribute apps on Apple's platform, and not being able to compete against apple.

How is the "walled garden" anti-competitive. It doesn't stop anyone from writing applications for android, WebOS, etc. Apple is selling a hardware experience. We have a choice, use IOS devices with the walled garden experience, or use an

My doctor and I had this discussion recently. He said that he is legally not allowed to advertise or share prices. The laws won't allow it as to prevent price fixing. This was in Texas, so maybe someone that understands the laws can chime
