I absolutely understand what the speed limit is. And understand that in most jurisdictions it is perfectly legal to go under the speed limit, however that makes it no less annoying. When you are following someone in a car going incredibly s

I am not a cyclist. And it is because I think it is unsafe to do so on most all roads where there are cars. Roads may not have originally been designed for cars, but that is what they are for now. You can make a philosophical debate that th

I am likely truly ignorant here, but I find it a bit staggering that Mozilla is able to spend the amount of money that they do on a pretty narrow set of mature products and services; all of which but one makes essentially zero dollars. a fe

Thank you. I missed this part of the news. It is a nice addition for those that need it.

I think these look beautiful and are likely well constructed. The lack of a standard 3.5 mm audio jack is disappointing for a product in this class, but to be expected from Apple. The questions will be sound quality. A lot of people on here

Glad you were able to finally watch it. It is certainly a film worth seeing. I perhaps will watch it again sometime in the near future. I always want to like it more than I do.

I have never particularly enjoyed Citizen Kane. To me, and this is just my opinion, it is a film where all of the component parts—acting, cinematography, sound, etc—are brilliant, but are somehow less than the sum of their parts. If you tak

This article mourns the loss of something that only has ever existed among a very small minority of any population in recorded history. Deep Literacy, as the author defines it, relies on the luxury of time that most individuals around the w

According to Apple's website the Macbook Air appears to only have 7 active GPU cores. I suspect that chips in the Air may be binned separately and may or may not support the higher clock speeds even with the active cooling of the Mac M

I do not buy for a second that environmental concerns were Apple's primary reason for removing the power brick and the lightning headphones from the box, though I think the decision makes sense. The lighting headphones are more of a pa

Your ISP sells your data, your mobile phone carrier sells your data and the apps on your phone sell your data. But it is anonymized so it is no big deal, right? Well, it is not anonymized enough and they sell just enough data that unscrupul

And I think it is valid to not agree with that narrative or to think my argument weak (as I admitted, my observation was casual and lacked citation). However, gender bias and lack of representation are, from anecdotal observation, the most

I find it interesting and perhaps telling that this comment is being down voted. I am wondering what an individual could take offense to. As far as I can tell I made two assertions: 1. Girls who are interested in STEM tend to abandon it at

Elementary and middle schools in the United States would welcome more male applicants. The issue is there are not many males that major in education at the undergraduate college level and so there are not many male applicants to choose from

Girls typically abandon STEM at the high school / undergraduate level. I do not pretend to know all of the factors that go into that, but one such reason I have heard is that the gender bias in STEM tends to strongly favor boys at this

Well, it is a slippery slope to be sure, and in an ideal world SEO would not be a thing, however with search, and Google Search being the primary source of web traffic for almost every website it is a reality. Let’s say you have an e-commer

This is a rather aggressive tactic and, in my opinion, over the line in terms of ethical SEO optimizations. On one hand, they back up their result with actual search relevant and useful content, on the other, it is still a manipulation of s

I think you and many others block ads because on many websites they are implemented so aggressively that it renders the website near unusable. This aggressive implementation is, in a way, a manipulation of the intention of ad tech and ruins

You are missing the most obvious and most likely reason for matching with new coworkers. Your new coworkers searched and viewed your profile on Facebook after meeting you. This is a key way Facebook suggests friends.
