gdh73··on Top Design Flaws in the Human Body: Our bodies are full of hack solutions
What about the heart or other critical yet non-redundant organs. In the tech world we try to avoid single points of failure like that.

Nice. And great work by the way!

Asked "will it rain today?" and it answered "I don't know if you will t rain today, that's your life and decisions."

Seems to have parsed "will i..." rather than "will it..." So will I t rain or not, hmm I suppose I'll have to decide.

gdh73··on Man saves wife’s sight by 3D printing her brain tumor
I was wondering the same since the Crown–rump length (CRL) measurement only has two points. One would think the spine should be included for an accurate measurement. However, that must be accounted for already. See also, "3. First-trimester fetal measurements" and "4. Assessment of gestational age" here: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/uog.12342/full

Will application_fee and Stripe Connect be supported?
gdh73··on Gravity Simulator
It ran for several hours like that and never deviated from the original "circular" path. Unlike the other attempts, which were all much more elliptical. I guess that's kind of how planets would stay in a stable orbit though, having the right distance and speed for their mass.

Love this. I managed to get a pretty stable orbit by using the right angle and velocity (by chance). Highlighted in yellow: http://i.imgur.com/OOaTLMP.png
gdh73··on Share: The Icon No One Agrees On
Interesting point. In a way, whatever you're sharing or sending is leaving your system.
gdh73··on Share: The Icon No One Agrees On
Agreed, and although I initially didn't like the new iOS icon it does make sense to think of it as outbound/upload vs. inbound/download.
gdh73··on Amazon orders subject to replacement fraud (still)
I'd think this could be prevented by a) stop giving out order numbers via chat and b) require customers to request replacements (or at least confirm them as you've suggested) by logging into their account.
gdh73··on Can Namecoin obsolete ICANN (and more)?
Why is it called Namecoin and not something like Bitname or Bitdomain?
gdh73··on Emails From Schmidt And Sergey Brin Show Agreements Not To Hire Apple Workers
There are a lot of people like you even in the US. Cost of living in California is part of the issue. Tech companies could find the talent for less pay if their workforce was located outside the most expensive areas.
