The stats they have for Super Mario 2 stand out from the ones for 1 and 3. That's interesting because it wasn't originally developed as a Mario Bros game. It was originally released in Japan under the title Doki Doki Panic (I had to look up

Every business extracts money from people. This thread is about the value people get in return. Creating a single location for a single product may be a new model of retail but selling a product with little value to a naive market is not. E

The first thing that struck me about this video was how awesome this technology is. The second thing that struck me was how most of the presentation fell flat. The technology is totally amazing and it's going to change the way we live and l

"Guides" on social behavior are by definition an awkward mix of over-generalized observations and overly-specific deductions. This one is no exception: In pubs, for example, the area around the bar counter is universally understood to be t
