I think we've already started terraforming the Earth, perhaps not intentionally at first but now armed with data on climate change we continue our warming ways.

Yeah the foliage is remarkably life-like and that is so hard and labor (art) intensive to do well. This is an amazing tool for indies without tons of resources.

Yeah but let's be real, while the "specific approved use" might be clear to a medical practitioner in a journal write-up related to FDA approval, the actual prescription ads shown to normal people attempt to use as general si

I like the Kahneman "Thinking, Fast and Slow" systems concept and I would extend the metaphor using CPU (slow) and GPU (fast). I would agree that the brain is inherently slow, using the CPU metaphor it has an embarrassingly low cl

You did a good job describing constraints Uber has in order to deliver a product to customers. From your description there might be good reasons for those constraints such as anti discrimination or price stability. But even for "good r

I was also surprised by this assumption and the lack of discussion or validation: "in a typical transaction, no value is created" From my econ 101 high school days I remember a super simple example of 2 islands, 1 with only orange

I would argue at this point in collective awareness of public communications, using a form of "sorry if I did any harm" regardless of specific words used is an explicit decision by the writer to not accept full culpability. I agre

Exactly. All this hullabaloo about the f150 being too expensive for the average american is ignoring the fact that the average american is in debt up to their eyeballs.

As the others are commenting I half agree with your comment - there is a supply issue in high density areas AND there is a supply issue in low density areas.

To further your position and to loop it back to the original point about crash vs accident: even in the case of an AARP member who had a heart attack that leads to a collision, accident is not the right word. There is nothing accidental abo

The story kept getting worse when they explain that state grants covered all the money spent by lobbyists to help the new owners pay a tiny fraction of taxes compared to the old ones.

Agreed even with stolen bikes the math works out. I have 2 types of bikes -- a beater that I'm ok getting stolen once a year or so for the convenience of feeling ok locking it anywhere, and others that I would never leave unattended in

Curious on the down votes, these are verifiable numbers and related deaths seems like a reasonable metric.
