What Open Source projects are similar? It seems like data transformation tasks like this are a universal problem. I'd just do map/reduce, but that's the advantage that comes with being a developer. Great tools for non-develop

I've been watching these guys for 6+ years. It's an agonizingly slow process to wait for their website updates.

You guys make it sound like Bluffdale, Utah is akin to the Mojave. Here along the Wasatch Front the weather's fairly pleasant most of the year. This July we got an abnormally large number of days in the 100s, but usually it's quit

I'm sure it's possible, but there are several other large-ish data centers within a 15-mile radius that don't seem to have the same problems. Ebay just built one that's running off of natural gas fuel cells. Source: I li

The school I teach at has recently found that women are actually more valued than their male counterparts by employers at the time of graduation. They've been averaging 4% higher job placement and about $2k higher starting salary; 95% and 6

According to the author and in the context of your comment, what the investors are doing is engineering. Engineers apply known principles to new situations, and in fact the engineering analogy is very appropriate for people looking to inves

It might not be much safer than regular bikes, but electric bicycles are great for expanding the non-car commuting range of the average suburbanite. I ride a scooter-style ebike that has enough cargo room for a few bags of groceries and loo

I recently wrote about my experience in transitioning to barefoot running. http://suburbiarebooted.blogspot.com/2010/01/how-i-became-ba... Bonus-- I was doing it before it was cool. :-P

I'd recommend an intermediary step between free and subscription. Today I'll go there once to check it out and provide a review, but unless you sell me RIGHT NOW I'm gone as a customer. Maybe it keeps track of my profile (height, weight, ag

I live in Utah, and drive a scooter-style ebike to work. See ( http://www.utahebikes.com ) for an example. It's even one step further from a bike because you don't actually have to pedal to make it run. Some would argue this is one step fur
