I recently had the same experience at a different float place in Seattle that I don't normally go to. I went as this place had huge tubs -- about 6 ft by 8 ft. Also the ceiling was at least 6 foot so people could stand in there. It fel

I can't figure out the reasoning for this, does he think that the populace is supposed to feel better after handling larger denominations? It's not like they can't do math in their heads and figure out that they are in the s

What really angered me about that article was Amazon trying to say that this was a "colleague" -- he was on a PIP. Which is pretty much Amazon speak for a dead man walking (no pun intended).

I was just on Amazon and checked out the "fine art" section which had some interesting items. I selected "framed" and was surprised to see stuff in the $20 range. So I clicked on one and while it said "frame"

In your example there could be deeper reasons for Armenians having higher crash rates. Let's say it is a combination of zip code, the food they are eating from a local Armenian Bell, and the phase of the moon. However with a lot of ML

What I don't understand is why people think FB lying about metrics helps them. Aren't these people keeping track of sales? Those should show that if FB was getting all these views they aren't worth much as their sales didn&#

Citation needed for the claim that mandated parking spaces are done to keep poor people away. Isn't the more likely reason that urban areas lack parking is that it is ... an urban area with less available land? Maybe this is true somew

What if you wrote a spider that hit 4chan and then went off to one of those CP sites? Could the script be prosecuted? The writer or runner of the script didn't explicitly say to go there and the probably primitive script has no way o

That would be true if there weren't organizations or people that could go through that trove of data and publish articles about it. What you seem to be advocating for is that in order to release factual informaton it has to have an app

I've heard this before about busy work (aka "bullshit jobs") but I'm not sure why we have them. Isn't it in the company's best interest to not have them?

Or the passenger in the case of Uber Pool. I couldn't believe what Uber expected of a driver when a new Pool request came up. They had to hit a button, look at the screen, rethink how they were going to go somewhere. Oh and then worry

In addition to the obvious have the person walk you through what they are going to do try rewording it slightly. In this case ask for the max value. Maybe they are nervous and focused too much on the minimum part of this that they lose sigh
