Yeah, but (and I'm surprised people have to keep repeating this) it's not about whether this stuff is already out there. It's the fact that soylent packages it all up nice and neatly and then ships it to your door on a consis

Wow. When I read the title of this post, I thought that it was referring to the Ironman triathlon. I was so fixated on that though that I was nearing the end of the story and thinking, "when is he going to relate this to participating

Wow, I have to say React looks pretty nice. I can't yet say I see a major improvement from Gulp to Webpack yet. Anyway, thanks for the quick intro!

yes it does, but I was just making an example from my viewpoint.

The thing about Vim is that I cannot imagine creating it and thinking, "This will be much faster and easier than a mouse eventually". But, I also wouldn't think that I could learn how to type fast without looking at the keys

For people in the future, the age of fossil fuels is going to be a small blip in the history of human civilization. To many people, it may even be weird that it was ever thing at all, given that our earth had renewable resources all along.

Yeah, I could see how that would be quite frustrating and defeating. There was no satisfaction greater than fully completing a game. Can you imagine reading a book with some of the chapters missing and requiring external resources to read?

whey is protein. It's the protein derived from dairy products. Also, I think the founder, Rob Rhinehart, is genuinely trying to make a good product that benefits consumers. Whether the results show these benefits or not, does not mean

yeah thanks for citing this. It was a deal breaker for me.

yeah that's fair actually. I guess it would only matter if he introduced it to the conversation. Well put.

edit: I've been corrected, but will leave up for the argument's sake I am not trying to attack you, more so just commenting on this type of phrasing. Wouldn't it be more effective to simple say, "Going through their webs

No, not at all. I think it would have made more sense to give each employee a raise based on a percentage of their income. That way, everyone gets a pay raise, and you can give more money to the lower earners without offending employees bec

And there it is. Just by using your company's name, you created an on-the-fly advertisement. Now I know that FastMail is: 1. A paid service 2. A service that cares about their customers 3. A service that doesn't use advertisements

Yeah, you're right, we certainly won't know until hindsight shows up. > "One outcome in a sequence of tests does not mean that others are more likely in the future. If you flip a coin and get 10 heads in a row, your likeli

It does seem like the article may have conveniently evaded that news. However, that doesn't mean there isn't a looming threat to the coffee supply. The fact that Brazil may have an exceptionally good year, only means that it is li

Exactly. What I took away from this article is that, despite everyone being frustrated by the inoculation of ads into our beloved 'free' services, we are still not frustrated enough to actually pay the premium to eliminate these a

wow, very impressive for just "learning" how to code. Great work man, I like the design a lot.

Actually, Netflix in the US is largely like that for me as well. I never get on expecting to find a specific movie I want to watch. However, I believe Netflix's original content (House of Cards, Daredevil, Chef's Table, Orange is

I think it's unfair to compare U.S. consumption with that of Europe. It is a much larger part of the culture to casually drink a glass of wine with, let's say lunch, than it is to do so in the U.S. Because of this, it makes sense

That is an interesting point. I wonder what it would be like if any student could potentially attend any school based on their academic merit simply by making all private and public institutions free to attend if accepted. Of course, this i

Incredible synopsis of my first 3 months of programming. You are right in that the umbrella term "programming" is incredibly daunting to a person who has never written a line of code. Everyone knows that more options does not tran

Honestly, the site was designed well enough that despite clicking on the link with little interest, I ended up signing up for it within a minute or so. Now, time to try it out!
