I'll be honest, I've never been a newspaper guy, but do people really go through them front to back or just scan the front page and jump to the section (sports, movie show times, etc.) they're specifically interested in?

I think there are some UX issues with infinite scroll, and probably some cognitive benefit to giving users a predictable end to use of a product, but I don't think many people ever completed a newspaper every day. To me, a daily copy o

Clarification: Pebble and Kindle do not use the same display technology. Kindle is e-ink. Pebble is e-paper.

Ashamed? No. Her actions are no reflection of my own character or behavior. I've never voted for her. Ashamed is not the right word.

Based on the App Store screenshots, there's basically no Facebook branding. Just colors and a like button. Even the app icon doesn't say Facebook. Interesting.

Why is the author so sure this hasn't already happened? He gives the current (and past) administration a lot of benefit-of-the-doubt. "To be clear, I don't think it's happened yet." "Obama was probably as surpr

Not really. Libertarianism is typically based on the "Non-Aggression Principle," which is not exclusively applied to governments.

Check out micro 4/3 lenses, they're pretty small compared to typical SLR stuff and even other mirrorless systems. The Olympus 45mm f/1.8 is damn minuscule, yet renowned for image quality. The Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 is just

Even assuming the analytics are correct, what is the value in driving down bounce rate? Lower bounce rate doesn't inherently mean more revenue. I can, of course, use my imagination. But I am more interested in reading why a lower bounc

Yeah, the "pathological infatuation with firearms" bit struck me as out of place among the other issues. I don't own guns, but I'm not afraid of people that do.

FWIW, 200 HP is not a lot and is, as far as I can tell, Mercedes' least powerful engine (201 HP 4-cylinder). In a 3,500 lb. car, it will not be especially fast. (I used to have a 3,500 lb. coupe, a Pontiac GTO. Now that was fast. It ha

The whole time they're talking about a car that does 200 miles on a charge. The cheaper Model S does not do this. Personally, I don't think a 200-mile range is necessary. I'd rather have a 100-mile range and be able to rechar
