I've had the same experience. For some reason Google thinks I want bi-daily reports on Trump's bathroom schedule, or what utensil he ate with. Which I can almost understand why I get that because so many people apparently want tha

I guess my point was, who is capable of being honest and not being embarrassing at some point? A lot of comments seemed to assume I was talking about Trump, probably because that's all some people know how to talk about. But I'm t

It's really funny when people bring up things people said or did 10 years ago as way to knock them down a peg. If anything, it should show that a person has the capacity to change and mature if they are no longer acting the embarrassin

It's just a shame most people don't know that there is such a difference. I wouldn't feel so bad if all that money was going to important things. But I witnessed so much waste, and so many people who do literally nothing but

From contracting with the Air Force, I can tell you that they have a love affair with spending money. Most of the projects I seen revolved around making sure everyone spent as much as possible, so that they could get more.

I have this memory of the first time I seen a ladies breasts. It was a lady from church who was breastfeeding at our house (it was hippy-ish Vineyard church, there was no hiding it under a blanket). I was somewhere between 3 and 4, so I was

I had a family for almost ten years, and then suddenly I only had part of my family once in awhile. It's especially hard to get back into that mode when it's not where you planned to be or even wanted to be.

Do you mean large, as in a large percentage of the whole population? Or a tiny fraction of the population, but which still makes up a large number of people because there are so many? It's hard to believe it's a large percentage o

I can definitely see how Amazon is controlling their marketplace, and even now opening brick & mortar stores now that they closed down everyone else's. But I don't get anything from Facebook except finding out what my grandma

This is purely anecdotal, but I've never had a good experience with this service. But I have some friends that are so lazy they don't care if it takes 2 hours for the food to arrive, so that works in their favor.

Because the place I'm at now doesn't have msdn and a lot of Microsoft buy-in by the developers. It probably works with other tools, but I know it's tied into VS very nicely. If it were my choice, that's what I'd lik

Everyone is talking about how this won't be a good chat app, but isn't this more like Jira than Slack? If it's a good alternative to Jira, I'd be glad try it out. I personally can't stand Jira, and not able to use V

Every time I read articles like this I feel bad about my career choice. How could anything I do compare to the fascination of space exploration? The universe we live in is nothing short of mind-boggling. I'm thankful that I can at leas

This is one of the things I think about, the alternative options that may expand in the near future. But it kind of goes against half of what I want for him. You're not really breaking out of your parent's orbit and flying on your

I recently got back in touch with a friend from highschool who's parents were really well off. They actually bought property on the East Coast just so that he could claim residency and get in-state with this really haughty college (I c

This does make sense. If he is anything like me, he's going to do whatever the hell he thinks is best. I was the weirdo for going to college.

I've been in serious debate with myself over whether to encourage my son to go to college when it is time. I guess it depends on what field I see him become interested in. I could provide enough resources for him to learn enough to get

Sometimes I wonder how much their impact is overblown though. It seems like it's a very loud presence in people's lives, and a lot of very loud people on it who think they are making some kind of impact. When is the last time you

I think I wholeheartedly agree with you. I guess my worry, which some people apparently don't think was worth bringing up, is that there are lots of people in this world with no moral analysis going on. I have no doubt there will be sc

I sure hope so. I'm definitely not against these new technologies. I'm just honestly not that informed on where these materials come from generally, and if there are any reasonable plans to source them better or replace them.

I have to agree. Of course, I've never had a child dying from organ failure, so I don't think I'd be quick to judge. But there is also a part of me that thinks humans are meant to die, and this kind of science is fueled a lot

I agree with you on the term sanctuary city being strategic. I think these phrases get under my skin because we just parrot back what we hear on CNN/NPR/Daily Wire, without adding anything new to the conversation. I'm not sur

This is something I have a hard time understanding because I don't get how social media appeals to people to the point that they become addicted to it. I enjoy getting on once, maybe twice, a day to look at a few things. It just doesn&
