That's begging the question. Posts with negative scores are completely banned from the front/hot page because of this bug/feature/discontinuity. You can't justify it with itself. What you can say is that you want

I still think "umami" looks out of place next to the other basic taste words. All the others come in adjective/noun pairs: sweet/sweetness, salty/saltiness, etc. Where's the adjective for "umami"? &qu

Just as the women who want to settle down have no right to complain about the men who want to date around, just as the women did before. Yet we have respectable newspapers calling those men assholes. I'm honestly puzzled at how someone

Messaging for men in the mainstream media seems to be "do whatever will make women happy". Note how this article, while being surprisingly equitable in at least considering men's point of view, has a completely different atti

This article is not about Apple, it's about the tech press's failure to uncover big stories such as the NSA case. Yet the author chose to tack on a cookie-cutter lede about Apple and to make the title about Apple. Seems hypocritic
