I would think about this all the time when I got a shuffle in high school. After listening to it for a while, I could really predict the next track that would come on even in shuffle mode.

I use google to search the site Quora and find that it works much better than the search that they've built for the site.

I read a random introduction to an article every single day. I was a philo undergrad and use it to keep up to date with high-level philosophical concepts. It's great.

According to google finance 60% of twitter is owned by institutional investors. Compare that to 67% for Facebook. https://www.google.com/finance?q=NYSE%3ATWTR&ei=z5q3VdHiDon3...

I think it's also a place where men can boost their self esteem. I think it's the antithesis of seduction. It's just way too efficient and not serendipitous enough. Sure, you can say swiping on someone allows you to intera

Tesla is working on battery swaps. The problem with it so far is that you have to return to the location where you swapped your battery to retrieve your original battery later, or be hit with a hefty fine.

Then the project ends up being delivered late, over budget, then the middle-managers that signed off on it get replaced or reprimanded by the execs. Vicious cycle. If you see the way these body-shop projects are pitched, it's one of t

I've seen some firms make org charts that showed that a person on an L-1 visa was "managing" someone when in fact they were an independent contributor.

For what it's worth. Fake accounts cannot down vote. I don't even have the ability to down vote. You need karma for that. People down-voted you because your comments are off the mark. It's absurd to think you're bla

I don't think an internal email is representative of a person's writing skills. Take it for what it was meant to be, stream of consciousness communication to one other person. Something that he obviously spent more time on is be

Wow, this is an amazing comment. I'm actually quite happy with sync on the 2014 ford escape. It is easy for me to get to what I need to do. Over time, I've realized it's better than a lot of physical button implementations

Read the fine print. You don't have any real rights to your permanent residency. The USA can decide not to renew it for any reason they deem fit. Also, laws may change in the future that further restrict the entitlements permanent re

I just became a US citizen after living in the country for 23 years. For me, the notion isn't archaic at all. I was a permanent resident for some time. The US could revoke my residency if I spent more than six months consecutively o

+1 for an updated Google finance app. I still think, no matter what some of my friends say, it's better than yahoo finance. Although, I think it gets the market cap wrong with a few stocks.

I'm not sure about the macro-level benefits of this kind of high speed trading. Yes, there are winners and there will be losers. The common-folk won't be able to win consistently with high-speed trading strategies. But, FOREX h

It's easier to imagine that YC can't take all of the good companies that apply if you imagine they could only pick one company out of 10,000 applying. The goal should be to build a great company using whatever resources and netwo

You know I used to keep in touch with people primarily through emails. I don't know when, but recently - most of my communication switched to messaging apps like messenger iMessage and whatsapp. I never thought it would happen. I tripp

This answer is excellent. It's also a great example of how technology just disappears and allows you to get what you want to get done.

I'm going to keep that in mind next time I buy on TAM. I had no idea about this. I'm Brazilian, have a CPF number, but have been living in the United States for over 20 years. I did think that airline prices were unusually high

Can you use iTunes to load it onto your device if you don't have the extra space on your device (without deleting apps)? I know this is harder than just pressing update on the device itself. I remember before you had to update your d

I mean anything I want. Usually I'm covered between Amazon Instant Video and Netflix. I'm really only into mainstream movies though, so I do understand my opinion might not be the best one.

I remember being in college when Netflix streaming first came out. At that time, almost everyone I knew had a mail-order Netflix subscription. It was revolutionary at the time. I remember when they suddenly started throwing in streaming

I worked at the cash register in Hollister in 2006 and we were already getting graded based on how fast and accurate our checkouts were. If you were an 'A' you could process returns without getting a manager's permission. C

The original link didn't mention this was an excerpt from Flash Boys so I had no clues Michael Lewis wrote it. I've never read any of his books. Now I want to because he actually writes pretty well.
