   Mad Men (TV series) was shot on film, it looks very nice. But I suppose it could also have been shot digitally and nobody would have spotted the difference. Maybe.

   Very good, but it's funny how on the "why IPVanish" page he links to, the first reason given for using a VPN is, to watch Netflix from any location! Oh the horror of limited localised Netflix content. We must protect ourselve

   Same reason you sometimes want to stay in a relationship but at the same time get the hell away. There are good and not so good things about any job/relationship.

   "Performance" can be seen as your ability to play ball with bullshit things and people at work. Outdated inefficient systems you're expected to use instead of building something new, for example. So you apply some resistance,

   Nice. A worthwhile eco-hacking campaign might be to "de-bullshit" the worst offending websites. Hack in, remove bloated bullshit, leave main content untouched. It seems spreading the word about bloat isn't working. Might need

    I still say that about Twitter! And the topic here is sound proofing an apartment. Think about how small an apartment bedroom is, and imagine installing a pod big enough, heavy enough and practical for moving out of the way when you don&#x2

    For sure, I don't doubt it was comfortable. They look like proper installed commercial pods. But as you say, not for an apartment - which is the point of this topic on sound proofing.

    Very hard sell. Most people love not sleeping in a box, and love their double or queen size beds. And how would ventilation work? The box is powered, with its own climate control? What about safety such as waking suddenly in the dark and

    You've touched on a grey area of clickbaiting, where the headline isn't too bad because at least it describes the content.... * Programmer (good to know it's a programmer's trick, we've established a character and i

    > " clickbaits are more than logical. " You're saying clickbait not only makes sense, but is profitable beyond merely representing the content. I'm not with you, sorry. Clickbaiting ensures crappy content is rewarded.

    Contrary to the article's claims, I click and visit the clickbaiters less and less. "Annoying but it works"... I disagree. For editorial content to work, it should appeal to long term readers. Also, "psychology of clicbb

    Now we just need a "neutral experience as a woman in tech" piece and we'll have discussed the full spectrum of this topic. I didn't read the article. When someone has a positive experience in tech "as a woman",

    Fair enough. I can't get past their brand name. Low latency is one of the biggest challenges in VR, to get below 20ms, and a lot of discussion around latency dominates VR engineering. Reading your article annoyed me that they come alon

    Advertisement? Apparently it's okay to call low latency "Zero Latency", just use title case and fire at will. Zero Latency is mentioned only 35 times in the article. Tickets on sale now for 88 MPH.

    Look how the light catches the delicate pubic hairs. The skin dry from too much air-con and not enough moisturiser. "I want a naked coder calendar" said nobody ever. A better idea would have been to photograph coders at their mess

    That's true. Church bells are not interesting or even musical. Islamic prayers are more sophisticated, the scales haunting. But it's still religious bullshit behind those call to prayers, and that is worth remembering before allow

    Church bells are not religious propaganda. Islamic call to prayer translates roughly to "you really ought to pray right now if you want salvation. Seriously, it's time to acknowledge who is the greatest.. you know who, yeh that&#x

    I notice the big 50% preorder deal has wrapped up. A mad scramble of buying as people believed they were saving $2000... The clock counting down to when the price would apparently return to the normal RRP. But of course that didn't hap

    I'm pretty sure a lot of companies would choose to deal with these sorts of internal matters without involving the law. When the NYT times story came out I remember thinking it sounded a bit spinny. "Let's find an angle"

    Medium seems to be a reasonable neutral ground for such a show-down. No distractions, just words on a page, fighting it out, gladiator style.

    While not a homonym, it's still an effective word because of it's less than tasteful association. I don't think it's used often, but when it is, everyone knows what is meant. Perhaps the distastefulness of the word might
