I enjoyed Moonwalking with Einstein, but I felt that it was more story than technique.

I found [Unlimited Memory](https://www.amazon.com/Unlimited-Memory-Advanced-Strategies-...) a nice follow-up to the former.

> WordPress itself is an inherently insecure platform.

Linking to regular security updates for a system is proof that that system takes security seriously, not that it is insecure. I'd worry about an open source project that didn't have regular security updates.

Also, "inherent" is silly to use in this context.

There is a link to the github repo in the footer of the site.

Still a work in progress, but I was itching to go live with it.

I look forward to your thoughts.

They need a good old war on drugs; pair that with privatization and they can rake in the money.

Looks like he read these comments, it seems to be resizable now (chrome). People can be pretty brutal here sometimes.

I love these initiatives. It does, though, need thorough testing in an office environment. Things that users, not developers, will come out. For example, I tried cutting and pasting from Word. Forget about formatting, none of the line breaks carried over. That's not to discount this. It'll be great in certain settings, but it has far to mature if it's goal is to compete with tinyMCE.

And that's why, if you are investing in indices, it's important to continuously invest.

My biggest gripe is that it doesn't integrate with their calendar app; which, I think is very silly.

I tried most of the ones on the list. I'm currently using [Spark](https://sparkmailapp.com/) not as buggy as Airmail, mailbox many of the features I liked from both.

Well, now I understand why all those pesky employees of mine feel so entitled to getting their paychecks. It must be because they're millennials or something...

Is it fair to say they're being paid if they paid into the system paying them for their entire working lives? Can someone please explain why people call Social Security an entitlement? Am I missing something?

> For instance, adding a feature to perform a specific function means you will have the choice between literally thousands of plug-ins.

Therefore I prefer not having the option to add custom features.

What?

Well, this is happening just in time for all the weather patterns -- as we know them -- to change due to global warming. I guess it'll be not unlike understanding the universe according to Douglas Adams...

The measuring stick in this article seems to solely concerning the resting heart rate. Yes, this is because that is the origin for the 10k/day measure; but, surely there are other benefits regardless of what intensity a workout you have.

Even without that financing, and without the logo, the financing itself is a good reason to not trust them as a source.

I'm sure there are other news sources that should be de-legitimized due to their funding, and it would be nice if they too go away. Due to the current nature of how people consume their news it creates echo-chamber bubbles that only reenforce misinformation or misleading perspectives.

It's just a matter of time before there's a kickstarter for a limited functionality MRI-esk device that will allow the multitudes to scan 24/7.

Once the whole self-driving thing is completely integrated it'll be even easier.

Ahem, Fox News

> This is not only because of privacy concerns—the people who contribute their DNA to such endeavors, whether medical or genealogical, rarely expect to have their genetic code scrutinized by cops—but also because those databases haven’t been vetted for use by law enforcement.

It's a real shame that behavior like this will stifle progress. I had been interested in doing 23andMe, and now I'm reconsidering it.

On a similar note, I do think that best way to get a shot at better and more investments in space would be to build a hotel on the moon.

(Maybe I should submit my blogpost about that to a journal to get academic cred.)

I don't use the phone. Pretty much ever. I want to know what's happening to my emails, online tracking etc.

This is a good idea, in theory. I just wonder how controllable it would be, once AI is more of a ubiquitous technology. With nuclear and bio warfare you can ban certain substances. Development of safe nuclear energy has suffered from this, perhaps justifiably. But once there are APIs, Open Source libraries, etc. out there, how will we contain it?

Implicit in that is the growing need for humans to support themselves comfortably on fewer hours going forward as well.

I hear you, I got my $50 refund, got some credit for finding a share link for Plastc and felt $100 was worth it for my single attempt at using the tech.

I cancelled my preorder after I got the app and saw that silly tapping security code.

I decided to try out Plastc after that. We'll see what that's like.

The glorification and exaggeration of the CSI television franchise doesn't help the matter either.

Whenever I feel regret such, as you're expressing, I am reminded by the proverb: "The best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago, the second best time is now. Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree." Sometimes that helps me get back to what I had wanted to do.

I'm finding the center alignment of the text bothersome.

Aside from that, very cool!
