Why would they sign up…ever? What's the value proposition? Will their parents have left in a few years? When I joined Facebook (~2006/7) there was a very clear value to me: my and my college classmates could send messages, collabo

Your comments in here really resonate with me too, I think social media might be pouring gasoline on the fire of jealousy, but if you're not jealous to begin with all I think about is: "Oh wow, here's a photo of Kristy in mex

When I was growing up, we would often hear radio stations faintly in our vehicle after we had parked it and shut it off on our driveway - that's how I learned that radio waves go through everything all the time. It wasn't just one

Both of those typos pass spell check ;) The "Who use them?" one bothered me too! The first few words on the Tim Berners-Lee page I saw were: “Simplicity is easily to quote but often ignored in strange ways.” which is another typo

Considering it probably took many hours to evacuate them, that does sound pretty last-minute to me! If they had waited until the actual 'last-minute', the people might have died or gotten injured or sick being evacuated.

Thanks for sharing, treating children with the same dignity you would give to an adult is certainly a great way to respect them as individuals. I'm sure you make a positive impact on every young person you speak to this way—maybe once

I think Starbucks tries to cater to people who like the flavours in black coffee, but enjoy drinking their coffee with dairy. My theory is that it's 'roasted to pair with dairy' and if you drink starbucks coffee black, cold b

If I can go get a device, and somebody qualified to read the images I produce can also inform me how and where to take pictures - I'd pay for that kind of a service. Seems like a business model to me :)

Wow, This is fantastic news! The 2nd edition is the only JS book I recommend to learners, so it will be so good to have an update that introduces new ES6 features as well. I needed an explanation like Eloquent JavaScript to finally get star

I was a paid subscriber, and loved using it. But they kept adding features (photos, social features) and at some point in time I found myself unable to log in from iOS. I think I spent 3 separate evenings trying to figure that out, but neve

I have definitely worked in this world - I feel like the right replacement for FTP for sending large assets around would be to host them in an S3 bucket, sooner than use web-based services where you add files to your account and share them

I agree that often times CSS-in-JS forfeits some of the expressive power that makes CSS powerful, in the attempt to gain some muscle from JavaScript. Instead of CSS-in-JS I think a better pattern for extending CSS with JavaScript is 'e

And if you make a mistake that costs the company $10k is it also okay to withhold $10,000 from your pay that period too? You seem to be tying reward _directly_ to profit, while ignoring the risk involved. Usually the higher the risk, the hi

When it comes to designer meats I think there will always be a really _high end_ market for exotic meats, 'dangerous' meats, or chef-designed custom recipes for making meat that isn't like anything tasted before.
