Honestly I do think that Samsung is guilty of copying Apple, so I'm not trying to explain it away. The fact that the jury determined the percentage is probably the part that peeved me the most. The numbers are so clearly based on anchoring

The manual method: 1. Create filter "subject(*)" -> Skip Inbox, Apply Label "INBOXPAUSE" 2. There is no step 2 To "unpause" 1. Delete filter (too bad you can't turn them off/on) 2. Go to label "INBOXPAUSE", select all, move to inbox Wor

True, the stakes in a death sentence case are higher, but the reasoning and expertise required are a lot lower. "Does the evidence prove beyond a reasonable doubt that this person killed that person" takes significantly less intelligence

"I wasn't confused, but some of the jurors were". Does it seem crazy to anyone else to have non-experts making enormous rulings like this? This bumbling fool did some "calculations" to "zero in on 14%" ("I'm familiar with P&L statemen

It's a beautiful site. I'm thinking someone is in the process of buying it.

I agree with your premise that password resets and system emails for a typical app shouldn't be HTML, but for you I really think they should be. It's your whole product and a perfect opportunity. If I get a really sharp clean welcome emai

YES. Someone needs to make a voice-to-text app that has a "bullshit meter" needle, and that beeps rapidly (a la PKE meter) when a threshold is exceeded. http://www.gbfans.com/equipment/pke-meter/

This type of broad trend analysis is really useful and should be done more often. It's these types of interactions that become "intuitive".

Great idea, but show me what in my text is triggering it, and have some "example" buttons.

Better to live every year like it's your last. Have no regrets, do what you love to do, and be with the ones you love. Certainly though, things which have a good cure should be tested for regularly across the board. I don't want to know the

Yeah I have to second this. No "non-techie" person will be updating this on their own, for the simple fact that they need to upload it after their done or edit it via ftp... etc. A wordpress plugin would help, but it still lacks great visib

Look at Stripe also -- very easy API to work with. I hear good things.

The one thing you need to focus on above all else is transparency and preventing scams. Video of the actual person who needs the treatment would go a long way, as would video updates along the way. I'm thinking an Android app that the local

Yeah I know, I thought so too. Look at the picture in their official blog post though, they're showing it off like they're proud of it. http://newsroom.fb.com/ImageLibrary/detail.aspx?MediaDetails...

The "photos-overflow-outside-the-white-card-theyre-on" effect has always bugged me. It looks like a rendering defect or something. I get that they're trying to maximize screen real estate, but I think it just looks terrible.

The next obvious question is "what percent to other countries waste?". Not addressed in the story, other than an off the cuff "10 times as much as Southeast Asia".

My exact problem with my new Nexus 7. The google apps do a great job of "convenience" switching (for me and my wife - gmail, gtalk...) but "privacy" switching isn't available. Some apps (Flick Note) also have multiple login "convenience" sw

"Suffice it to say there is a) a customer group which needs between 8 and 15 cards and b) they really, really like pretty checkouts." I think this is more "people who are on the margin where they MIGHT be interested in paying for more cards
