   Ahh true... That book is really deep. I love it. Unrelated comment, but I feel compelled to mention... I just moved to SF and read that book right when I got here, only to find out that Pirsigs son (who is one of the main characters of the

   Not tech related, but I loved Devil in the White City by Larson and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Pirsig. Also, I reread Rework about 3 times this year. Always a good and quick read.

   Bold move, but also a crucial blow to cable television.

   Swearing should be a strength of your vocabulary and not a weakness. Occasionally it can be used to great effect, but hopefully is not relied on in general conversation.

   Same here... I was with KeyBank for a while too and had this happen. Fifth Third is even worse about it.

   Yes, most banks do this now as a way to take advantage of their customers and generate more revenue. I had it happen once on a road trip -- you know, the type where you stop frequently and purchase $2-$3 of junk food or drinks all the time

    Yeah same guys... They just spent the last few years pivoting if I remember correctly. I checked it out and it's a good alternative to something like Google music.

    I was under the impression that Mixpanel was a different product. ie: tracking events and real-time stuff versus just page views.

    Certainly true, but I feel like you always know when you have some issues lurking in the back of your mind. I once did some hallucinogens after going through a breakup and a small bout of loneliness in which I wasn't entirely happy with my

    I definitely noticed myself becoming more open (as mentioned in the article), much more laid back and less neurotic (though the article mentioned this not being affected), and just a calmer, more rational, loving person in general. I also

    Ahh yes, I forgot to mention the importance of an experienced "babysitter" for your first trip or three, until you're confident and fully comprehend where your mind will be going for the ensuing 3-6 hours.

    Quick suggestion... I tried to share on Facebook and didn't get an image. Set this in your <head> so it looks better when shared: <link rel="image_src" type="image/png" href="PATH TO IMAGE" /> <link rel="image_src" type

    Psilocybin use definitely changed me for the better. The first time I did it was one of the most eye-opening and impacting experiences in my life. Since my first trip, I've tried to work it into my life at least 1-2 times a year. Every t

    To me it appears to be nothing more than a redesign of the traditional wall? Yes, I understand the concerns about the "sharing" of information--something which I think people don't quite understand yet--but other than that I feel like peopl

    It's interesting to consider "spending" an hour a day on the service. What if I pop in like 10-15 times a day to check notifications. I feel like it's a lot of usage, but total time is actually quite minimal. In addition, I have Adium si

    I am using it as a template for a side project and we decided to switch our internal tools over to it within my company to limit the amount of time we waste trying to make our tools look just right when we're the only ones looking at them.

    10,000 home town. Assume each home houses more than one person and you're looking at 10,000-40,000 or so people. Irrelevant to how terrible (well, unrealistic) of an idea it is, but worth noting.

    Agreed... You need a video, a tour, or a how it works section. I'm not signing myself up for anything without a clue of what it does or how it works.

    I've never used a static site builder in any language, but I'd be tempted to use this. The only problem I see is that, off the top of my head, I can't think of a use for all these extra features. What sort of use cases do people use these

    I tried it, but for some reason the plugin/my browser had a big problem with the remake. There were very few layers, but it was overlaying my calendar onto the image or something strange. I restarted the browser and tried again but it kep

    Bad news, the service I used for this is trial only and it's hit the bandwidth limit. I'll upload to youtube soon and repost a link.
