The letter stops short of asking the FCC to classify broadband and the internet with common carrier status. Bummer. http://cdn1.vox-cdn.com/assets/4422119/letter_to_FCC.pdf

I'm surprised a Prius V was not included in this matrix. It would seem to fit favorably within the range of features the OP was looking for, but also is efficient, low maintenance, and safe. I love Tesla, but they are just not there ye

That's actually kind of awesome. Good on Amazon for taking security seriously.

Shocking, but not necessarily surprising given what has already been revealed. Seems like the kind of thing that a union would help protect against.

Those things look huge. Until "smart watches" can be made smaller and lighter, the adoption rate will be abysmal. Seriously, those things are electric hockey pucks with straps.

Yes and no. Crappy malls are dying. Decent malls in more affluent areas are diversifying their experiences and thriving. In some places, indoor malls make a lot of sense. I live in Minnesota (home of the original indoor mall, Southdale). It

I doubt this will happen. CBS owns rights to show the AFC division of the NFL. It is not in the NFL's interest to reduce it's audience. The NFL is a HUGE money maker for CBS and other networks that cary games.

Waste from a traditional coffee maker is biodegradable or compostable (paper filter, coffee grinds). Coffee pods combine that with foil and plastic, to make it practically impossible to separate and dispose of in an environmentally friendly

How is it adobe's fault that the OP no longer has a optical drive? He purchased physical media in the first place, Adobe, nor any other vendor, is under no obligations to provide convenient access to him for years down the road. Sure,

You might not need jQuery 1.x. You might be able to use jQuery 2.x instead, which is smaller, faster, and drops support for IE8 and below.

That support ends on April 8 of this year: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/enterprise/endofsuppo...

I disagree for two reasons. 1) It is good to have choice. 2) LESS is simpler and closer to the thing it compiles into: CSS. When dealing with complicated abstraction layers, it can be useful to not veer too far away from the target.

They might be able to do it in their sleep, but they'd probably have to be awake to hook it into a CMS and make it work reliably with many different elements and ordering.

Can we please stop linking to Forbes.com? Their "articles" are often poorly research linkbait full of half or no-truths. Their site is a mess and full of slop advertising. Let's not do them the favor of the traffic.

Not to be pedantic, but letterforms are fundamentally chain-able icons and those have been around since written language. More contemporarily, other marks/icons we now would think of as standard are really icons for language control or

This is absolutely not true at all. Wireframing is nice and can be important, but it's not design, it's architecture. It tells you the ballpark of what you might want to achieve and how a app/site might be structured. You nee

Usually they don't have the lawyers that The Atlantic probably has. You can get away with a lot under the guise of journalism (and you should be able to).

Something that might help is OS vendors shipping with 3.x installed, rather than 2.x most seem to. OS X ships with 2.7.5. For a casual python user, sticking with what is there and working is safe, especially when the benefits of 3.x are unc

You're correct: Radar is pretty well suited for a gif. But, it can still lead to 400kb images that are 150kb when h.264 video. For a mobile connection, that's worth caring about.

This is excellent. I've been dealing with weather radar images lately, and they're all terrible animated gifs. This sizes them down nicely. A service like this really needs to support oEmbed. The oEmbed spec is pretty simple and i

I don't follow F1, but this sounds pretty exciting. Hopefully the multiple variables introduced here will produce innovation that will flow down into normal production hybrid vehicles.

Fun to think about, but I'm pretty sure you'd have trouble buying a billion dollars of any stock every day, much less $100 billion towards the end.

Sadly, old man McCain wants to see Alexander fired for all the wrong reasons. It's not the crime, it's the cover-up. McCain is throwing his hat in with the cover-up.

These cars can raise and lower the suspension, right? Might be useful to have it use scanning LiDAR and detect debris in the road, raise the vehicle when appropriate. They're working on a self-driving model, why not build that in.

Inline editing makes perfect sense if the only thing you ever publish to or plan to publish to is the web. Many large organizations do more than that. Apps, feeds, radio, print, eBooks. There's more than just the web. Inline editing pr
