Airbnb has always figured out clever ways to screw the hosts. When I first hosted guests were much more polite and clean. The last few years the ones I've gotten have been pretty messy and more likely to break house rules.

Perhaps that's true with some observations. I'm no expert on the subject here, but this does seem like a scientific study that wouldn't really involve luck.

I've been taking beet root powder for tough workouts for a while, no harm in taking it daily now.

Really surprising zwift is on the list, I would expect them to be thriving at this time.

It seems at this point the games will be held in 2021, this seems mostly like a symbolic decision.

As a host I've always hated Airbnb,a guest overstayed and they didn't allow me to charge the guest extra even though the guest admitted to overstaying in the chat with me. Can't say I feel much pity for them, they've alw

It's that running has never before seen one company get this far ahead of others and it historically been more egalitarian than cycling.

From a triathlete's perspective it's interesting to watch this, since bike technology has become quite more advanced over the years, whereas running has not improved as much. Of course there's much more that goes into the bik

Agree 100% about the least obtrusive ads. The ads on the verge jump out at you and are pretty in your face.

I don't think they've had any vision ever since Eich left.

She disputes the reporting, but didn't say specifically what it was that they got wrong. The screenshots of slack messages were pretty clear evidence to me.

If people are interested in alternatives, Garmin and Polar are companies unlikely to ever be acquired by a big tech company that would rely on selling data as a business model.

Do things like take breaks to walk around, use a standing desk, do some sort of physical activity before lunch like go swimming or ride a bike. If the company frowns on this shame on them for being a horrible place to work.

I've raced for about 6 years now and have not replaced my tri helmet, but have replaced the one I use when I'm on my road bike (only because it broke in a crash), where did you hear that you should replace the helmet that frequent

If scooters end up being used as a replacement for walking/cycling it certainly is not as green as those alternatives. I haven't seen a study as to what they are replacing, but I can't imagine for the mile or so trips that t

A little ridiculous considering Strava basically wouldn't exist were it not for companies like Garmin and polar for which it depends on for user data via APIs.

The point is whether or not the 1st amendment gives you a right to not be blocked, whether or not they are disruptive is irrelevant. I could have phrased the original scenario differently. If the president hosts a radio show and he takes ca

So does this mean that no government officials can block anyone on Twitter? What if a president is giving a speech and someone runs into the aisle and starts screaming, do they have a right to be there without being escorted away by secret

Set standards on when people use the group notifications is a start. But in general just having standards that people agree upon for channel message priority is the way to go.

Would be a difficult patent to enforce against a competitor since it would be difficult to tell if a backend is actually implementing this but I suppose it's in their interest to still file for it.

Far more preferable though to delete some legitimate reviews than to have a fake one go through. As the consumer that would definitely be my preference. You won't create a perfect system, but as long as most fakes are filtered out and

True there are some places that do that, but I think it's probably not a good practice to ask a customer to write a review while you're watching them on premise. There just needs to be awareness that that sort of thing is not OK.

Wonder how much of this is related to them being public now. It's still useful for me with only 3 devices so I wouldn't be ready to start paying them though.

I just got done racing the La Crosse Omnium and my favorite stage by far was the uphill time trial. No drafting, just going straight up the bluff for 2.3 miles climbing 530 ft.
