Can you expound on what you mean by "usually at the expense of people poorer than them"? I understand this sentiment when it comes to things like predatory lending, but would like to learn more about how it applies to non-exploitative areas.

A couple possible examples to help with the discussion: 1. A new millionaire buys a house from someone in SF and lives there. 2. A new millionaire buys a rental property from someone in SF, renovates it, and raises the rent to make back their capital outlay. 3. A new millionaire buys a broken down classic car, invests capital into repairing it, and sells it to a collector for a profit.

23andme does, but it doesn't include it in the default report.

You can go to https://www.23andme.com/you/explorer/gene/?gene_name=BHLHE41 and check your raw data to see if you're heterozygotic.

Chase, Watsi's founder, spoke at start up school last year.

Donate first, then watch his talk and then donate again. Make sure you look for the tip option on the checkout page if you want to help cover Watsi's operational costs.

Re:Tesla Gigafactory [pdf] on Wednesday February 26, 2014 @09:33PM (#7309944)
I believe the key term of the parent comment you're replying to in your first statement is "luxury production". While Mercedes and BMW both produce a large number of luxury vehicles, they also produce a large number of non-luxury vehicles such as trucks, buses, vans, motorcycles (BMW only) and even garbage trucks.

For global auto sales from US manufacturers, I'm guessing that companies like Paccar and Oshkosh are keeping Tesla out of the top five currently. They make trucks and commercial vehicles so people tend to overlook them when it comes to comparing auto manufacturers.

Still, I do agree with the underlying message of your post. It's not like there are a ton of US auto companies left.

Very true! When it releases, I may try to use data from an Eye Tribe (http://theeyetribe.com/) to drive the right trackpad output. The added cost seems like a valid deterrent against people just trying to cheat, and a bearable cost for someone who wants to play games but is incapable of using a traditional controller.

I was a bit disappointed until I read the bit about hardware hack-ability. Accessibility in games is an oft ignored topic. The open nature of these controllers will hopefully lead to more games being playable by disabled gamers as people extend the hardware. Of course, the flip side of that coin is people modifying the controller to gain an unfair advantage.
