You're both right - MJ makes you far more cautious and analytical, but not necessarily more correct. AKA paranoid Either way, the "impulse buy" reflex is significantly stronger with alcohol than MJ, according to myself and th

It makes sense if you buy into the premise that a large subset of frequent alcohol users would make the switch to marijuana in a legal setting. Alcohol use benefits casinos' bottom lines. Marijuana doesn't have the same wallet loo

This is great! I found the more robust examples really useful, like the ones that show notes and triads in a key. I'd love to have something like this in the form of a VST or something usable in Ableton.

Not sure what you mean. Surely more than 3% of the freelance talent pool is being used by companies at any one time. In fact, I'd say my issues with sites like these is that most of them are exclusively for people who aren't tha

FWIW, I would definitely be interested in paying for a service like this. I'm technical enough to care about this, but not technical enough to solve it myself. Similar to where I was before dropbox.

Image data takes on noise/damage when it's compressed, during things like saving and uploading to the web. When you turn that noise way up, it should be even overall. When it's wildly mismatched, it indicates pieces have been

Luckey's political controvery makes an appearance.. in the byline... as the reason for the price hikes. > Bankrolling Trump trolls costs a lot, yo Regardless of what's right, that certainly feels like it's taken a side.

Some thoughts: 1) Put pricing higher on the home page. I expected this to be like other services that take a project percentage, was surprised to find a $50 subscription fee, which I won't pay because I didn't find a quick answer

That sounds petty and spiteful in a way I wouldn't expect from him, especially so publicly. Also, as valuable as his presence is, I can't imagine a buyer of the size needed to buy Twitter would be like "we'll give you n

Others are correct that this article is of very low quality. But that doesn't change the fact that data caps are arbitrarily set cash-grabs and should be either abolished entirely on both home and mobile plans, or should be regulated

Here's an alternate theory that should be controlled for in future studies: Crappy photos are more likely to be grey/less colorful, and the average MTurker likely has a less than stellar camera. Thus photos are more depressing bec
