I went from feeling fine to could-not-walk-three-steps-without-vomiting in the course of an hour. Could probably not have seen it coming and booked an airbnb in time.

That's the first big strike against vanlife for me. In the US there's no cheap and reliable way to park and sleep without being harassed by police. The second is illness: I ate some bad chicken earlier this year and was violently

Hm, making the name of a brand you intend to market worldwide something deeply offensive to a huge swath of the world is a pretty poor decision. I'm not saying their hiring "should" be altered, but I do think were it more inc

wkhtmltopdf is based on QTWebKit, which is truly a pain in the ass to work with. Way more bugs and much less support for modern CSS than Chromium.

It will probably come to mind for folks whose families were affected violently by colonization. That this wasn't brought up during the naming process paints a pretty clear picture of the team's demographic makeup. Edit: Yep. http

The problem is you aren't "giving" a company anything. The company is observing how you interact with their products. This is like saying by walking into a store you are "giving" the company your image on their secu

I'm sure it was free for your mother, because she is your mother, so why wouldn't she? For the rest of us who have to pay, what are the realistic odds a 64-year-old will get any sort of benefit out of banking stem cells?

This is not something unique to millennials, or any recent generation. As long as we've had public opinion polling, large portions of the population have supported cracking down on speech they dislike. Why do you think the First Amendm

You should make all the radio buttons in the same style. Took a minute to figure out how to use the UI, which is too long.

It's a tough catch-22. Cryptocurrencies are so volatile that there's a non-negligible risk that locking away a large sum for 48 hours could potentially cost you nearly all of it. And they're so hackable that not putting a t

This is so overwhelmingly the root problem that I almost can't believe the authors would spend so much time on anything else. In a more modern electoral system, most of their other points would fall into place naturally.

Just survived Irma on St. Maarten. That sounds like a solid plan. Good luck. If your experience was anything like mine, I seriously doubt you will be able to fly on Thursday, but I hope I'm wrong. If you get a chance to stock up on eve

Cities along the Inside Passage are miniscule and would basically not exist if not for cruise ship revenue, so that makes sense. That said, they probably could have called Holland America's bluff. But I'm sure they had good cause
