The most efficient use of a roundabout is to indicate when you're turning across the roundabout (turning left if you live in the US) and when you exit (whether that is the first, second or fifth exit). This way all traffic entering the

I don't think roundabouts are complex, treat them like a giveway/yield and they are brilliant. The biggest issue is they are an infrequently used traffic control device in the US. So infrequent, I don't think they even appear

The fact they know they are sending marketing emails, not associated to your account itself speaks volumes ;(

I love the idea of hierarchy of intimacy, that is a great concept/phrase. I'd make it so you could tap a phone, you know their phone number, you know their email. Importantly in my eyes, you shouldn't be able to navigate to a

In my head, the new Friendster owner wants to drive some amount of true personal connection - hence the tapping. The problem I see with not using a phone number as I described, is that you'd be connecting to any old social profile - co

Tapping phones seems very limiting. I don’t see most of my friends in person that often, different cities etc. I think a better alternative would be a phone number. You only give your number to friends, which aligns with the brand and produ

On Daring Fireball, I find the site hard to use nowadays. It isn’t mobile friendly, and the white on grey, while cool, is a bit hard to read. I wonder if a fresh design might help out for improved engagement and thus shares/upvotes etc

In 1990, Australia stopped minting 1c and 2c coins & rounding to 5c. It worked out just fine. Everyone move on.

Other places I plan is via Strava, Komoot or Garmin Connect - the heat maps help a lot to know where other people ride different types of bikes (road/gravel/mtb).

Seems like there is a need for an open format for health data that can be stored in/out of a database to avoid the app shutdown problem. Surely that exists with all the health data available via wearables ?

Next to zero organic reach in Facebook, so you’d have to pay to make sure your followers actually see it. Might as well post it on your own website, build an email list, let users subscribe to RSS - at least you own that and aren’t renting

While I appreciate the sentiment of this legislation, removing social media access for everyone under 16 years to address the concerns of a few is a nanny state act. As a parent, you should be making these decisions for your children - not

This is a lame move from Strava (I’m a premium member). If a user wants to connect a third party app to Strava to access THEIR DATA, they should be allowed to and it’s their responsibility to read the other website terms of service and priv
