   You don’t actually need to ask what they need. You just need to acknowledge your presence. I usually just write “Hello” back to hello’s and things get started. I find the styles differ based on a few factors: if someone says hi because we

   I want to move away, I could move away, but I have a teenager who's still incredibly integrated into my daily/weekly life (we live where his mother lives), so I'm not going anywhere for the foreseeable future. Yes, this is my

   Does anyone remember a Wired (?) story from the earliest days about a teenager who got mixed up in a geek subculture and disappeared into sewers under the city? A quick search on their site didn't really yield what I think I remember.

    I've been on macOS for years now, but was installing Dropbox on a Windows machine. It kept downloading that client instead of the folder sync app. Took me a while to figure out why.. the Windows Install / Store interstitial is doi

    I've wanted (and have been mulling) a boycott platform, but with built-in contracts and degrees. For instance: I commit to not buying Starbucks for 90 days in order to support a mandate that they reduce their plastic usage 20%. Or, I

    So the accusation is they're not linking directly to 8chan or whatever the latest iteration is? I find myself not being able to care, even on principle.

    SV consulting companies charge way more than $225/hr and still employ local talent even if they have staff in other countries. I say this having been a consultant.

    I like the oily ones, where you have to mix it in, with no additional ingredients (except salt). The stuff in Reese’s Pb cups.. I don’t care for. I carried peanut butter with me on long trips to Europe. Never found anything that satisfied m

    I'd been buying regular and decaffeinated coffee and mixing then for the last few years. One day a few months ago I just bought the decaff and used that and had no difficulties at all. None. So yes, some/many people will have with

    And what to do about it? Windows & Linux probably aren't the answer to the trillion-dollar juggernaut that is Apple. OSS has drawn the talent, and there's a lot of talent building enterprise applications, most of which are the

    I’ll repeat a recommendation I’ve made before: reinstall your smartphone’s OS, don’t restore from a backup, and install as few apps as possible. Start bare. Then get on with your life and see how little you can get away with on your phone.
