I've heard this quote a lot and pretty much agree with the sentiment. But is there anything useful a tech person can do out there on their own these days? I used to do web development and the thing I liked most about it was meeting ultra small business owners (less than 10 employees) and...

I don't really like t-shirts but I hate the idea of putting a bumper sticker on my car even more. I think for me I like the framed pictures like dispair.com does the most. How about you?

Hmmm, so you think the coffee heater is using the air in the room to heat the beverage up? Can a heat pump heat beyond the temp of the room. Seems to me using the exhaust from the power supply would be more useful. Do you think there would be any way to approach boiling using a device...

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that. I don't really feel like trying to take anything like that into account. Assuming ideal situations I think will be enough to prove my point. Off to update original.

I got into an argument with a business major yesterday about a product that could boil water via a usb port. Below is the math I did but at the end is a product that seems to violate the formulas. Did I make a mistake? (other than arguing a science topic with a non science person) g * (temp...

Fixed ala salute your shorts.

Bingo! People worry too much about these kinds of things.

You could open a small restaurant and just open for 6 hours a day. Use the 150k to subsidize your losses. Enjoy the ride until the money runs out and sell it to someone who wants to work 12 hours a day. That is of course if your goal is just to have fun while doing business activities (i.e...

Seconded. It can be really tough to learn something new AND be creative about how to do it but it is very easy to get stuck into following a project and thinking you know how to do things when really you just know how to copy examples. I've done this a lot actually. I like the idea of...
