   This gives me so much hope....I think we are going to see a revolution in Art and Media as more of these guys start getting "it"...The days of Big brother and his army of douchebag MBA's is soon going to be over!

   I too agree with you....Your example does prove that it is possible from a finance background!...but I would still point out that your guy had a sound mathematical mind whereas most MBA's and "idea guys" run the opposite direction when they

   Good luck with that....and please....if you can make Bingo Card Creator with your free time I would consider you a highly skilled technical person...Most "idea-guys" have trouble making their wordpress blogs!

    How do you intend to prove that Larry Page and Sergey Brin were the only humans who thought of that way of ranking links.? What I can prove is that they were the first humans to come up with a technological system that implements that.

    I was just giving my objective and honest personal opinion about Android...Whether any value can be gained from it depends on the person reading it. What can be said for certain is that there is definitely no value to be gained from your co

    A tech-nerd becoming a good businessman is not that common but we have seen many examples and we know its not that hard to do.(Take Eric Schmidt or Bill Gates for example). Please give me ONE (I repeat ONE!) example of an MBA becoming a roc

    I agree with some of the author's argument but he seems to be missing the logical fallacy in the use of the word "undesign". Thats equivalent to arguing that a flat screen tv is obtained by "undesigning" a TV from the 90's and thus there is

    Our brains are much more complex data processing systems than we or even the latest neuroscience research can fathom...my advice would be to just keep reading whatever and whenever you feel like it...leave the analysis and processing to you
