Deloitte's acquisition of BearingPoint's Federal practice in 2008-9. Fascinating to watch from the inside -- literally the same people increased revenue & margins with happier employees, primarily driven by implementing a bet

It's true the LCDM is the consensus, so this result is even stronger from an outsider's perspective since the lead author apparently comes from the LCDM community, not the MOND community. https://scitechdaily.com/w

Wow, how did this get published in Nature? Anthony Lewandowski is not an outlier in Silicon Valley, supported by a citation of the author's own (non-peer reviewed) article... I mean given all the ink spilled over him, whatever you th

I would say it is more than the world, we use language to discuss our intentions, desires, beliefs, willingness, etc. All of which there is value to speakers to being ambiguous. Some languages are even better than English at giving speake

The take that I had the most curiosity about was #4. I get where it comes from, but what I observed when I was in the military was if you asked staff in the operations center about data they would say, something like "we've got tw

But that's exactly what's missing from all this discussion of voting systems, if the US and UK are your examples of "failed" democracies these experts obviously haven't considered the full range of how voting works.

I think everyone that hopes for a bright future wishes the EM drive worked--an Epstein Drive in our own time! Alas, wishes do not make it so...

I don't think he meant low density, he meant that even though there are a bunch of people the incumbent telcos don't actually offer service there. The Bay Area's internet is surprisingly fragmented. We couldn't get fix

Exciting and scary! We live in the time where this if finally a real thing after almost a century of discussion of humanoid robots. I wonder when / if this will become a real commercial thing.

I went to school in Pittsburgh, PA where they are building condos and bars on slag piles from 19th century blast furnaces. I don't think industry in cities is unique. For a few more examples: Philadelphia has an oil refinery practica

This seems like the NY times continuing anti-SV coverage. For example, while Santa Clara has some number of super-fund sites supposed the most in the country, would we expect this based on historical manufacturing GDP? Is it out of line?

I think there's still a private race to the moon. Some companies, notably, Astrobotic and Moon Express still seem set on getting there and have business models even though they dropped out of the Google contest. http://robo

I love the fact that the announcement couches the order in the state's prerogative to consume services that it deems best fit its needs, which is very slick politically, however that works legally.

Or maybe they could provably crowdsource some of the information and say that the fraction that is bot / crowdsourced is proprietary and irrelevant. Then send a copy of the HiQLabs v. LinkedIn case. https://www.bloomberg.c

I'm not sure what this article says that's new other than letting incumbents cast shade in their terms on what Tesla is doing. It seems like Tesla's been pretty up front that they're doing it their way and there will be

It is very counter-intuitive, but speed increases safety in an aircraft type both as a function of hours and as a function of miles. This is an empirical fact that's true for both military and civilian aircraft, I was looking for the

Actually, there is great doubt. Many environmental campaigners are coming around to intensification broadly as the path out of our current environmental problems. Check out http://www.ecomodernism.org/ a bunch of ex-green

I don't understand how taking 25M acres of wheat production and turning that into 75M acres of Kernza produces a net environmental benefit. Which 50M acres of native habitat are we going to cut down? That's the size of a North E
