A few years ago, there was a product on the play store called 8pen[0] which had a huge learning curve but was insanely useful. I was able to type while running on the treadmill, or with my phone under my desk in class. Unfortunately they to

As with most things in life, it's about signaling. At work I always type with correct grammar to seem professional. On twitter I deliberately don't use capital letters or apostrophes to seem relaxed. Not because I actually care (a

How does Github "collect data about your visitors"? The repository is cloned, built and served by Netlify's server. And since I doubt Netlify is injecting any js into my site, I also question the extent to which they can trac

Climate scientists seem pretty sure already that climate change is happening. In 2028 when the effects should be even more obvious do you think there will still be denialists? There's reason to believe the bottom third of Florida will

I shopped around for a good price when looking for an apartment (in a college town). Would competition not be sufficient for keeping prices down for renters? I understand it would raise rent prices some, since people having more money would

I read an MIT study which said Uber pays women less than men, and they pay according to an algorithm that does not use sex as a factor. Would you have anticipated a lawsuit there?

Are you aware of any anecdotes of people saying their rating fell when they didn't flirt back or got on crutches or something? (Your point is still valid even if you don't, I'm just interested)

I left the `()` because in some imperative languages there's a difference between `() -> a` and `a`, which makes `a.b` and `a.b()` different. In Haskell there's `>>>` and `&` in base, which I use all the time for t

If it's a big difference to me, it would be surprising if it was not a big difference to some portion of people (in either direction, I wouldn't be surprised if most people hate it). Since it makes a big difference to some portion

I just read it, it's a great story. I can see some obvious drawbacks to Vertebrane (I like my privacy), but I can't imagine it being worse than Manna.

Since Microsoft's goal with everything they've been doing in the past few months has been to gain developer trust and mindshare (WSL, a better windows terminal, all the new Github features, etc.), I don't see this as a realis
