So you see this as a media stunt from Hillary?

Thanks for pointing that out

bjchrist | 11 years ago | on: Is an MBA worth it?

Disclaimer: I haven't taken a MBA, so I don't have any personal experience with the program.

Personally, I wouldn't take any education, unless I was passionate about it, regardless of the demand in the job offers. Follow your heart ;-)

I found the google glass to be an interesting experiment, but nothing that I felt would ever have the potential of becoming mainstream, at least not in the current form factor.

I have used google glass for a while, but stopped because it felt unnatural, and feature were "fun", but not very useful.

Can't wait to try to watch. Makes a lot more sense to me.

From the website:

The method is called biochronometrics and it maps behavior based on a series of complex algorithms. 5 million live tests show that bots can’t mimic human behavior when biochronometrics are applied.

That being said, yes, I would love to see some more technical details on the implementation...

bjchrist | 11 years ago | on: California man spies on cops through surveillance drones

I have seen so many youtube videos demonstrating the need to question the cops authorities, which I find really disturbing!

I moved to the US from europe last year, and I have never doubted that the police was doing a good and proper job in my home country. After I moved to the US, not so much.

Can't wait till we get self-driving cars. Next generation will find it completely reckless that we put people in charge of driving cars

bjchrist | 11 years ago | on: The Unexplained Fear Of Remote Employees

I find this to be a very delicate balance, and it of course are heavily dependent on the tasks at hand. On one side you want peace and quiet, in order to concentrate, on the other hand you want close communication with your colleagues.

I think 37signals from lot of good answers to these concerns. I highly recommend reading from 37signals, Remote.

Yes, it's a work-around, but it totally makes sense, at least until the city comes up with a better solution for the parking issues in the city.
