I don't see how evolution has anything to do with your theory. Furthermore I doubt that the motivation behind arguing about 'pointless' topics is to sway the population to your side so that you can benefit. Unfortunately, however, I do not

Perhaps there is a market for some kind of service that allows you to make small 5 or 10 cent charges. All of these charges are grouped together and you make a payment at the end of the month in one go so the the fees are reduced. Or it cou

There are other costs involved besides commodity components. Developing and producing a new input method costs more than the cost of the components.

You say 'discover what mistakes [users] are making' but explaining why would be really helpful. Perhaps to allow me to identify typo-domain names that I should consider purchasing. Or maybe I could use your product to research ad keywords t

I understand the meaning behind "as soon as you're born you start dying" but that phrase really irritates me because, well, you're not really. You're growing, new cells are being created, new memories being made... I'd say that's pretty muc

Could someone please explain to me why this is such a big deal? Let us assume that Jonathan is deceiving us and that this is a marketing ploy... what does it matter? We haven't been conned into spending our time or money on anything. The ca

I don't understand the logic behind this line of reasoning for predators sleeping a lot. Predators hunt to obtain food which provides them with calories. More calories must be gained than spent from hunting, otherwise it would be pointless

Literary references aside, I personally would prefer the submission title to provide some context and description of the content, it would make it much easier for me to scan the front page.

I assumed the whole scenario was made up until I read the article, yet what I presumed didn't bother me. Does it really matter if the situation is fictional? It was still an emotive advert and weather the characters were made up, or are rea

I find it really frustrating when a mobile version of a website offers a subset of the features that are available in the 'desktop' version. If you don't think that a feature is needed in the mobile version, it probably isn't required in th

I see it as a positive thing that the media is shifting to using the word 'hacked' as it was intended to be. Sure it may confuse some people but over time it may return to being used exclusively in the older sense.

I don't have any experience with developing lightboxes but couldn't the 'X' button just use javascript to go back in the history (instead of directly hiding the image). Or is that how most lightboxes work but because this one cannot use jav

I know a lot of non-technical people who install, and even recommend, Chrome because it is "the fasted browser ever". They have no idea about web standards but still have an incentive to try a new browser.
