This is frustrating because I expect wikipedia to be neutral. Clean, pure, informational; the opposite of "7 reasons $politician hates America". Honestly when a group like wikipedia makes a move like this it just undermines my tru

I've been in a couple of those trials. They make it very clear that the drug has already been tested extensively and also do fairly extensive testing on you to make sure your vitals are within the "normal" range. I got a very

Anecdotal but I feel like I'm that kind of person but absolutely don't want to run a business. The worst case scenario of my own business is the whole thing crashing and me having to reorganize my life to accommodate whatever job

I don't think anyone believes a strike is a great business move. Strikes are to be avoided if possible but they're a forcing function to improve work conditions, not a strategy to boost revenue.

This isn't a good article. The title is distilled clickbait. The 3 simple tricks in the article don't have their value or necessity proven in the article; they're just stated. The conclusion of the article is "I built an

I think a lot of people would be very interested in a job posting with a tagline like: "We don't have ping pong or topo chico; we have eight hour workdays". If I saw that, saw a clear description of the thing they're bui

Good shilling (or "guerilla marketing") is hardly detectable, whereas people that complain about it are trying to draw attention. That could explain why cases of one are more visible (regardless of the actual frequency of either).

I would be astonished if google was not recording every bit of data they could from google voice. They do text transcription for voicemails; I'd be pretty surprised if they didn't have text transcripts of all calls that went throu

Fair enough, but I have a hard time google maps is building this system purely out of altruistic intentions, and not to sell us on the locations that pay their way into the "hip local venue" group a la yelp.

It tends to isolate people into self-reinforcing communities, many of which have two things in common: They have an enemy that they demonize, and they admit no wrong. Not all communities are like that, but when communities (and now that I t

The installation process isn't the sum total of the point there. Known-good is better than unknown, all other things equal (and not to sound condescending but they basically are). It's low risk but frankly it's even lower rew

I think the fact that this new font has an installed base of 0 counts against it's versatility. I think the fact that a negligible amount of the general public could pick the new font (knowingly, not by guessing) out of a group of 9 ot

This is a really odd place to leap to from "google is going to show how much time you spend on the phone and in each app". It's also a good reminder of why having a bit on your phone that reminds you how long you've been

I figured something like this would exist, but I don't think it's very useful. I've walked the dark path of trying to implement "pickup artist" material(can't imagine that'll be received well), and I can s
