Noting that the experiments described in the article were performed on yeast, can anybody better versed in biology convey a better idea on how applicable to humans these results are? As described in the article, we both have telomeres, but

You should consider checking out the game "Space, Pirates, And Zombies" (aka SPAZ), which is a more recent iteration on the top-down space shooter. Plus, it's also made by a two-man team.

I look at it this way: Plan #1: $30 for 100 minutes, with $0.10 a minute afterwards. Plan #2: $40 for unlimited minutes with MetroPCS. So, if I manage to talk less than 100min + ($50 - $40)/$0.10 = 200 minutes per month, then I end up

In space, the atmosphere can't filter out any of the sunlight, nor can clouds/water absorb some of its energy, which results in about 30% more energy[1]. Plus, if you're not near any objects that can block the sun (i.e. Earth/Moon), you get

That would be quite tricky, since both the camera (attached to your head) and your hands could be moving in different directions at the same time. A stationary, secondary observer (like a Kinect) would be several orders of magnitude more re

I imagine the $20 also acts as a nifty spam filter. Some minor feedback: on the scrolling album background, one of the squares looks like the icon for Pandora, the music streaming service. Was that intentional? Bit of an odd choice in my op

I wouldn't call you pessimistic - more realistic. I expect that the reaction of the Manufacturing industry's reaction to small-scale Makers will parallel the Recording/Movie industry to file-sharing, as the situations are similar in many re

I've also heard that eating smaller meals, more regularly, can help your body lose weight. This trend correlates well with the above idea, since smaller meals means that the sugars should be absorbed before the large intestine, thereby furt

I agree with Alex. The dynamic equity concept doesn't sound simple to begin with, and I think your suggestions would just complicate the idea further. A business can't spend all day meta-managing their equity, after all.
