  1. cost inefficient on The Fight Against Dark Silicon · · Score: 1

    guess using unused space is a good thing, but will it be cost effective to make these huge low nm chips? it might be more cost efficient to include two higher process chips. also batteries are always getting a little better (albeit very slowly). i think android phones especially would benefit from more cores. there are hundreds of threads running on that OS with just a few apps open.

  2. Re:Democracy doesn't work on My Crowdsourced Follow-Up About Crowdsourcing · · Score: 1

    word.

  3. Re:one-click purchasing on Amazon Responds To "App Store" Lawsuit From Apple · · Score: 1

    this would only add credibility to both. but good call, both these companies have patented / trade marked something real stupid.

  4. Re:Ribbons? on Another Windows 8 Pre-Beta Surfaces · · Score: 1

    They were not perfect, by any means, but at least I didn't have to waste 3 days trying to figure out where things were.

    yes you did, when you first learned it.

  5. Re:Ribbons? on Another Windows 8 Pre-Beta Surfaces · · Score: 1

    actually ribbons are a very good way to present information on what a function will do without the user hunting through menus and trying every option. however on windows explorer they are probably misplaced. that screen real estate could be used much better.

  6. Re:Wouldn't it be a lot simpler on Google Tweaks Algorithm; EHow Traffic Plummets · · Score: 1

    buy up domains, prop up content farms on them, and all links on the content farms go back to eHow

    this is not how the google ranking algorithm works. if eHow has a lower site rank (page rank for all its pages), then linking to it wont help you increase the content farm's page rank. what does that is when high page rank pages link to the content farms site. its a little recursive, and im sure its changed a little since the original implementation (think kludge factors). all those sites (ehow/sexchange) were actually ranked higher since people did link to them, and the sites did provide some content that some people were interested in.

  7. What about my shares? on Ceglia Sues For 50% Facebook, Old Emails as Evidence · · Score: 2

    Does this mean that my Goldman issued Facebook shares are only worth half as much as they were? If a swindler issues shares for a company run by a swindler, doesn't that make them legit? Where's the SEC when you need them?
