Buzzfeed should be the focus of this, as they claim to be news. 4chan goes out of it's way to promote people not believing anything they see on there. We have a problem if journalists are latching on to things they see on 4chan and thi

Joe Rogan has talked about this at length on his show several times, and had Robert Sapolsky as a guest to talk about this. They actually say the parasite causes rats to become sexually attracted to cats, causing them to pass on to the cat

Not that I've researched it, but I've read the auto manufacturers turned things around and repaid the bailout because they are in the business of producing things. It seems like the business of banking has it's own culture, i

I can't help but wonder how much of this would have been fixed by letting them fail. This is way out of my ballpark, but it still bothers me a lot that they don't face the same consequences I do for making mistakes.

I know what even a whiff of religion means for some people. But I have to say that I can't think of any charitable organizations I trust more than the churches in my area. I know some people think it's all jet-flying televangelist

Even when devices are capable of running some software, I'm wary about it. I've seen enough VR/AR turn phones into a brick of magma.

I bought a Pixel a few years back, knowing full well that it was a luxury expense compared to the other Chromebooks out there (and yet still cheaper than what I'd spend on just about anything else out there). One of the coolest parts w

My couple years old Pixel runs the Play Store, and most apps are compatible. You run into some apps that don't support every tablets and larger devices, but the big players know what they're doing. Honestly though, once I bought t

That one in the Guadeloupe Islands looks like a pretty big deal. We have the Freedom Center here in Cincinnati, which gets like 0 visitors a year, but the city spent a fortune on it and the water-front location. http://www.freedo

This kind of makes me wonder if there are museums or memorials in Europe and central/south America dedicated to their role in the slave trade, the way we have them here in the states.

Is it sad that I'm glad? It's sort of like the Simpsons for me, something that I once loved so much that has been ruined forever. Now they just seem like a cruel joke I'd like to end.

I was wondering, because there is an Amplify library already, but I think it goes by AmplifyJS.

Titan is actually larger than Mercury. Just something I learned yesterday while reading Cassini posts. It really puts the size of Saturn into perspective.

This is quite a tangent, but figured I'd mention to anyone who might be interested that there's a pretty cool podcast recently from Radiolab about the life and times of the Voyagers. It goes into some interesting details about the

I'm sure it is, just as the one of my new Android is, but it wasn't about the speed or quality of the feature. I just didn't like it.

This is what I was wondering. If it's impossible to be a Cloudflare alternative because they rely on something like ISP's rely on public utilities, it feels like these barriers to entry really hurt the consumer.

Maybe this is a pretty good test of the free-market to self-regulate. Most people wouldn't shed a tear for one hate site going down. But if someone else takes the reigns of this company and starts following Twitter or YouTube's ex

I fought for Atom for a long time. But after browsing a node_modules folder in Code, I realized how much I'd just accepted poor performance. It also worked as good on my Linux devices as my work pc.

As soon as you get into batteries, aren't you still treading into non-eco friendly waters? I suppose this is more about self-sufficiency, but you're still relying on rare metals that come from questionable sources and are excavate

This may be off-point, but are there more polished attempts at new ideas out there that are worth checking out? I can't keep up with what's worth playing anymore, and don't have time to play every game hoping that it hits the
