>"This is a weird outlier where a few people are taking it to be a statement of fact." I actually agree with you in general, but I don't agree with that bit. I'd say that kind of interpretation is par for the course

Is English your first language? Saying that "A are B", particularly with emphasis and without a qualifying introduction isn't a typical way of expressing an opinion.

Talk about missing the forest for the trees. This person has a valid point, a relatively minute one that is being made in an overly-dramatic and annoyingly self-important way. KA is great, far better than anything I was exposed to in tradit

Different spatial intelligence? Personally, I'd say I have a better feeling for "starship enterprises" or "battroids" [0] in terms of length or height than the ubiquitous "football fields" or "empire

I'd say no. It seems easy to worry entirely too much about a name or logo. I think a great product makes its name and great name can't save a bad product. I think your current domain is fine, better even. Say I'm a small busi

Very true. Growing up I was far more scared of the police than anyone else in what was not a very nice area. This wasn't cultural conditioning either. It was the experience of being routinely stopped, questioned, accused, intimidated a

This reads like lightweight stoicism to me and that's a good thing.

I'm with you, but there are a couple of downsides I've observed with staying out of management: * It can make moving between jobs harder. Career managers are scared to death of people who are more technical than they are and entir

I recently did some work with a engineer who is 60+ and spends more time studying and keeping himself current than anyone I know. It was eye-opening to me. Many if not most people I've met at that age willingly admit to having given up

Not the best submission title. Spotify isn't mutually exclusive of the myriad other ways musicians can earn from their music online, many of which are described on this very same infographic.

The oldest stuff I've seen in use would be PDP-11s, Wangs, NetWare 3.x and assorted OS/2 Win 3.1 desktops. I used 90s versions of Winamp and Xnews until I just stopped caring up local MP3s and USENET.

This happens with any and everything remotely contentious on Amazon. It's a default soapbox/battleground [0] for the Internet. Though, this certainly appears more organized than the typical ranting. It's an interesting proble

That is actually pretty tame relative what some rich kids do with their fancy cars. * Jewelry heir kills two men with his out of control Porsche, pays off the families, gets house arrest. This is after running over a cop a few years earlier

Clubs and bars tend to be dark and the patrons inebriated. I have to imagine that those factors would go an awful long way toward nullifying any benefit of this stuff. Also, if the technology involved is anything like the color-changing &qu

Just the other day I had a non-technical friend ask me if upgrading his 50Mb connection to 75 as suggested by Verizon would get rid of his YouTube buffering problems. I wonder how prevalent and successful such fraudulent upselling is?

I'm really surprised Scribd seems to have had little public trouble with copyright. I used to find myself there all the time for various hard to find and not for public consumption automotive docs. The site was full of obviously infrin

Some variation of this topic comes up over and over again. I've seen people bitch about Brazilians on Orkut, Chinese on WoW, Blacks on MySpace/Twitter, Indians on Quora and Android users on Instagram. For all its potential as a co

That's just basic rationalization at work. What I find more interesting are the folks who would take offense to the latter option as well. Choosing not to buy a game based on an opinion of the creator will quickly draw the ire of its f

I tend agree with you. I see the behavior of Fish and his detractor as symptoms of the same cocky entitlement and nastiness that is so terribly common gaming culture.
