Gas also doesn't typically disappear from the fuel tank overnight cause of the weather, which was the crux of the story.

Why is debunking people faking stuff indicative of a pathological obsession with fame and status? Seems more like the fakers in the first place would be guilty of obsessing over fame and status.

Blaming suicides on people other than the suicidal person is something I also rather not assume people would intend.

You are saying it isn't a bluff with evidence from the potential bluffer.

Happens on TV relatively often. Bill O'Reilly got the boot because advertisers pulled their ads after he got caught up in sexual harassment claims. TV just has also built up years of trust with advertisers and have legal departments re

I think it is equally intellectually lazy to throw up your hands and claim solipsism in a murder case, particularly when there is a lot of compelling evidence. The real significance of the finger prints isn't that Syed's were ther

The mind can always come up with an innocent explanation if it wants to see that. He had been an ex-boyfriend for nearly a month, and no other suspects had fingerprints in the car. Not sure how you believe people are too eager to see him as

Murder accomplices tend to be liars. There isn't any compelling evidence of police coaching. The "critical witness" the defense failed to call disappeared for 15 years, and came back with a cash in book deal in tow once the c

What was poor about it? All my research into the case show that the prosecution was fairly above board and comprehensive. Syed had motive, means, and opportunity. There was physical evidence, a pattern of Syed lying to police and a confessi

I'm sure Google's employees who can say I am a lawyer reviewed this. They've been paying Ad Block Plus to do this for years. Bringing it in house can't change the legality much.

No, I don't think they are sub par. But I do think their exalted place in the Apple blog world is not earned by quality, but ad money. You don't see many of these bloggers actively using Squaresquare for anything but side projects

Azure itself is pretty safe from Gruber's crosshairs. Google was less successful, but there is a common trend of companies paying their way into the good graces of Apple bloggers' inner circle (Squarespace, Backblaze, Everpix).

Sure, he does. But it is odd rhetoric to say "Android Wear is a limited device category without an audience for x and y reasons. Apple Watch, despite suffering from x and y as well, will be different because things change".

My impression of Android Wear is that it’s best thought of as a wrist-worn terminal for your Android phone and for Google’s cloud-based services. An extension for your phone, not a sibling device. Android Wear devices are almost useless ot

Probably mistaken assumption given Gruber's "new syntax, new name" request: https://twitter.com/gruber/status/507651498692849665 Personally I think it is a fair compromise.

Seems to be a disconnect where Chakmakian sees one Spotify/Pandora play as equal to a radio station playing a song when they are entirely different things. 14,227 listeners is less than some college radio stations playing a song once.

Given that every bit of energy gets the driver closer to their destination, your comparison seems a bit unfair. Sure, it may be a small difference in the big picture, but that small difference could be the difference between making it and h

I'm not seeing the strawman? Plenty of people are claiming the cost of university is more than its worth. Ariely is offering a counterpoint. Others argue that education is a right, but he isn't addressing that in this case.
