My matches seemed pretty accurate in terms of general phrasing (I do a lot of 'I grew up in...' and 'I once knew someone who...'), but the subject matter was a bit concerning at times. Does the average account have so ma

Imagine how much of the public must be losing their grip to elect them, then. It's a problem that politicians are acting like this, but the bigger and imo more interesting problem is that it's working and they're being electe

I knew someone who went years with 5 hours a night. He was notoriously quick to anger and tended to over react to everything. Toward the end of my knowing him he started to take better care of himself and suddenly he was the nicest man I&#x

I was stuck using Android honeycomb way past its prime for a few years as a kid. Granted that was years ago so it's /really/ past its prime now, but I was definitely grateful for the developers who still supported my device s

What's interesting to me about it as a consumer is that I actually find the highest quality apps in a third party app store (fdroid). It's not because of exclusive deals or anything, it's just because the Play Store promotes

As always though, it's not about you, it's about the people around you and the people around them. If we all acted selfishly all the time we'd all die.

I grew up in PA and my siblings and I used to have Lebanon bologna in our school lunches every day. I'm not sure what there is to say about it, it's alright, sort of like a sweeter thicker cut salami. Ama I guess.

I find it interesting that so many of the results are very long. I suppose it makes sense, a post that contains a lot of words is more likely to contain any individual phrase than a post with fewer words. Or is it just the case that HN comm

It works for me in practice. YouTube definitely are capable of linking separate accounts in the back end, but in my experience they don't do so for recommendations. I have a separate account specifically for watching a given type of co

I've had several nights where my dreams are just trying to solve programming problems, but in my experience it always breaks down and ends up useless because logic doesn't make sense in the dream. Everything in the dream is incons

I had a particularly hard time recently due to this when my phone broke and I couldn't replace it for a week or so. It all got figured out in the end, but not being able to access my Google account and all that entails was more of a pr

Convenient security holes are harder when the spyware is built into the OS. The popularity of Chromebooks means most students don't have the option you're describing. You can't disable the analytics without disabling school c
