This cannot be stressed enough. I can't tell you how many useless things websites have suggested I would be interested in because I purchased a gift for someone's kid 5 years ago, or whatever. Also, consider that data isn't n

Ever lived in a condo with an HOA (Home Owner's Association)? You get the opposite problem. One person, household, or small set of owners wants to be in power so they can make changes that benefit them, and everyone else wants nothing

Can't we look at places where that is the case today and see? I always hear about how in places like Russia, every student learns much harder math than here in the US, and they learn it better. But I don't see other countries like

I agree wholeheartedly! It reminds me of when I was studying music. When the teacher wanted you to perform a piece for a recital or concert, you'd always play a piece that was a level or two below where you were at because you could na

Are they, though? I suspect most butcher shops and restaurants are using antibacterial soap at this point. I go out of my way to try to buy non-antibacterial soap and it's often impossible to find. I imagine most businesses just order

I concur. They have flags for which apps have in-app purchases. If it's anything more than "get rid of ads" I don't buy it. I would love a flag that says, "ad supported" or something similar. Great idea!

I recommend doing a few things: 1) Read papers about this stuff, attend conferences about this stuff, and try to implement some of it yourself. For this particular set of techniques, SIGGRAPH is a good conference to attend and their proceed

If I double-click on the globe, it zooms in, and then I can't rotate the globe anymore. I also don't see how to zoom back out!

Back when I ran a mail server for a small business, I would see the spammers literally going through all the permutations of email addresses for a domain. In the logs you'd see: failure to send to a@example.com failure to send to b@exa

"Booking fees have long been something that consumers grumble about–but pay." Not exactly. I mean yeah, I sometimes pay them, but I simply go out far less because of them. So choose wisely if you're going to go that route!

There's a great episode of Crap From The Past[0] about pop songs that started out as commercial jingles[1]. The most surprising one to me was the Carpenter's hit "We've only Just Begun". [0] http://www.cr

I have to disagree with your assessment of people in California. Having lived in the MidWest, New England, the South, and out West, I can say that the people in California (at least in Los Angeles where I am) are very friendly. I chat with

Exactly! And living in California, I can't tell you what a pain in the ass it is to try to send a friend in another state a bottle of wine. Whenever you visit a vineyard or even a wine specialty shop, they have a list of states they ca

I agree. I learned a bunch of tech and then used it to socialize, make friends, meet women, etc. I don't feel I missed out on either the teenage part or the learning part.

>To a product manager, even four weeks of technical debt reduction sounds like "no new features for a month." Yeah, but if you can't implement new features in under a month because the code is such a mess, then maybe spend

That's weird to me as a lifelong Mac user because that's what I experience using Windows. My father needed help with something on his Windows machine, so I sat down and double clicked on an app. I got the hourglass for about 2 sec

This is fascinating research! It's one of those things that seems obvious in retrospect, but if it was obvious, why has nobody addressed it before? I have to say, though, the example security alert they show looks like spam to me. I&#x

What makes you think that? I hate ads and am more than happy to pay to not see them and to support things I use. I do this all the time with, for example, Netflix, iTunes, and a few others. I even pay for the NPR I listen to in my car where

For me, I just despise everything about working out in the usual ways. Gyms are pretty disgusting for a number of reasons. People who don't wipe down the machines, people judging each other, the smell, etc. It's also boring AF. I

What's the current market penetration of 4K video? I work in the industry and have no need for a 4K device. How many normal people even want, let alone have 4K capabilities?

Not to mention, when learning programming there's absolutely no reason to introduce the command line. Set them up with an IDE and GUI for source control. You can still use llvm or gcc and git or svn behind the scenes, but it's abs
