I've always wondered this: why can't this same idea be applied to wifi signal? Is it truly impossible to make wifi behave in a peer-to-peer/mesh network fashion?

Aside from the great general advice you are getting here: You can always go back to school or learn a new trade. The only thing preventing you is "being in competition" (your words) with people who have more experience. Don't compare yourse

Cool explanation. I didn't conceptually get that the mitochondrial energy process is the same as a coal power plant. But if everything gets burned, how do I build new cell walls and stuff? Where does the actual matter come from? Some of the

The big mistake begins here: "Simple physics requires that to lose weight, we must burn more calories than we ingest" THAT fallacy is how the author leads the reader in to HIS strawman argument, that somehow Taubes is unaware of, or disrega

This particular misconception has been wandering around for a while: "Simple ecosystems are the goal of proceedings like CARP, the panel that set out the ruinously high royalties for webcasters. The recording industry set the rates as high

Not true, read the actual quote, he said "and women. Or men. Whatever" he specifically expanded it to basically include "whatever you are attracted to" ... he is a straight man, he will use what HE is attracted to as a reference. Also, how

I disagree, IMHO Pussy as a shorthand for sex reduces SEX to the sexual organs. Not the woman, the sex act. That may be unenlightened (we know sex can be so much more!) but not necessarily anti-woman.

Conversation with a very technical friend of mine about filling positions in my bootstrapping company: HIM - you need a technical cofounder ME - don't I know it ... perhaps you could learn objective C and not only work with me but have tons

Yeah, that's kind of the conclusion I came to. But that just makes me ask the question: Then why doesn't every developer with a related skillset just learn Objective C already and try to charge me lots of money? I mean, if I didn't already
