>palpatable =palpable + palatable. Pedantry aside though, I like the word. Maybe it describes something can be palpably palatable.

I feel like it's a stepping stone in more ways than one. There's still plenty we don't know about how our own biology functions outside of Earth's gravity well, atmosphere, or magnetosphere. Long term studies will need

Not just in DAU either. Mind-share wise, it has a huge influence on the wider web and is increasingly the platform for content stealers (the 9gags, buzzfeeds, and facebook pages).

Came here to say the same thing. It seems like a complete oversight to not even mention reddit, but bring up platforms like Yik Yak. For my 2 cents, reddit's model is absolutely the road forward for long-term sustainability below the

The hotspots in the Dakotas are slightly correlated to Native American populations from what I can see.

Unfortunate but true. There's a large amount of people (especially in this country), who feel that way. When they hear in policy discussions "X will harm people", they automatically translate to "X will harm people that

Exactly! While both parties do bad things and are undermining this country, it helps nobody to blame both parties for something specific that one party is doing without the support of the other. The vote was along party lines and in this ca

While I'm usually all for bashing both sides, does it really apply in this case? The bill in question repeals rules set out by the FCC under the Obama administration. Those rules were a proactive measure that increased privacy from ISP

I like the evolutionary analogy. I agree that the global nature of internet communication will most probably lead to a homogenization effect. Truly distinct cultures will soften over time. The lack of diversity would reduce the output, but

Yeah you're right. It's not really quantifiable in a numbers sense. I was trying to say the same thing you are that the speed of the two things is related (directly proportional is the phrase I used).

The way I've come to view culture is that it is a byproduct of communication. Stick three people in a room and have them talk to each other, eventually they come to share a culture (a small one, but nonetheless significant to them)[1].

I agree that the tone is the same in both cases. >So, maybe calling out baselessly opinionated people is ok? Of course it's okay. But call them out by saying they're wrong/baseless/uninformed, not by dismissing their

Wait, they don't have a right to an opinion? I mean, sure, call them wrong, but to say they're not allowed to express a thought?

Playing around with the minimap now, and disappointingly it doesn't seem to render the text selection (at least not at my dpi). Was looking forward to that as well. If you haven't tried vscode however, it's always had selecti

Are there plans for implementing weather simulation? Things that might force course adjustments or reduce visibility would be a useful addon to the simulation. I know one team when I was in school would have loved something like that when t

So with the comparisons at the end of the article, does this mean that there were a lot of edge cases where the theming wasn't being correctly applied prior to 1.9? Were there themes that incorporated less stylistic choices because of

Because the base Monaco editor is used in other products besides Code. The example I've seen thrown around is configuration editing in Azure consoles.

Well said. I'd complement your point by adding an analogy most of us can relate to: technical debt. When it happens in software systems, it's generally seen as a quirk/unfortunate reality of the system itself. But as an org a
