Interesting. One thing I've noticed is that certain on-line sellers exempt purchases to certain states. I wonder how long before they start exempting residents of states that force online sales tax collection.

> Now that smaller sellers (marketplace sellers, eBay, etc.) also have to collect tax, that hurts the ~8% discount built in, so why even shop around? Because the more I learn about Amazon and their warehouse employees, the less I've

My son is 4 months old. For the first few months, 12 changes a day was definitely not an outlier. However, we were very quick to change his diaper once we noticed it was wet. $1000/yr for diapers is definitely possible. You and I may h

Yep, my brother decided to join Facebook in a non-tech role (admittedly, right before the #deletefacebook movement began), and it was purely for the compensation. He even joked he had joined "the dark side". I've been off Fac

Not OP, but the primary issues I'm not a fan (on iOS) are: 1) Performance - Yes, it LOADS fast, but MANY pages "feel" janky, when scrolling, especially pages that allow you to load additional accords by scrolling left/ri

Ah, I'll have to share this with my wife! We welcomed our first child in November. Since then, we've been pretty sleep deprived thanks to the nightly feedings and diaper changes. Both of us were remarking this morning how forgetfu

My wife and I both have iPhone 6s. She upgraded and has regretted it since. Very slow wake up, unlocking, and app switching are just some issues. There's a lag with most actions. Random app crashes (even those updated), and battery lif

The majority of images (and there are not many) seem to be black. The hero images, the About pages, all young black people. The only white person is the CEO (which show up predominately on the blog and about the team) As others have mention

While I agree, a lot of what you said isn't limited to the lack of Flash, but just trends in general. Websites could be more interactive, animated (even with sound, if desired...but please...no), and have some dimension. Unfortunately,

I would love to buy glasses on-line, but have a simple issue of having an absolute massive head. Unless I go in and physically try on a pair, I just have to assume it won't fit (usually the width of face, but temple length is also a pa

Given the opening of the Keynote and the focus around accessibility, I'm really curious how Touch Bar will work for non-sighted users. Will it require running your finger over the controls while VoiceOver relays the context of the butt

Just beating a dead horse here, but I really wish Microsoft would add "hot exit" for unsaved files. It's been in Sublime Text since 2011. Nearly all my Mac apps support this feature natively. Why, in 2016, if VS Code crashes,

One thing I noticed missing (or that you should consider) is keyboard accessibility. If I tab through the page, I quickly get lost where I'm at (until I focus on an text input element).
