Had an interesting/cool moment with my Pixel at the theatre today. There was a line to get your picture taken in front of the show's giant poster. The attendant would take your phone and snap a pic. When the attendant used my ph

I imagine he's talking about the mountains. When I moved here 5 years ago, all the mountains were just dead, brown, and ugly. I didn't understand how anyone called the mountains beautiful. This is the first year I've seen

Doesn't that conflict with this hint: > Not far, but too far to walk. So he took a car to some area, and then drove a motorcycle (or snowmobile) twice to the spot? If you're taking a vehicle why do you need 2 trips, though.

I have a set of rules I give my children. I started with them as kind of a joke because they would always flip out about stuff, so naturally, rule #1 is: 1) Be calm 2) Be kind 3) Don't steal 4) Always attempt your best I've alway

When over 30% of your userbase is adblocking, it's not worth it. Your users will complain to you, not the adblockers. They don't even understand what's going on. Asking your users to whitelist the site doesn't work, e

Ad blockers do a lot more than just block domains. They look for and remove divs/DOM elements that contain known ad naming schemes and remove them from the page. And if a site decides to start combating the ad blockers, the adblock li

I'm convinced that the agencies involved with traffic problems don't understand shit about traffic, and this article is one example why. They mention HOT lanes. I need to see exactly where, and what time of day they used to get t

I find it hard to believe they simply disappeared. Recruiters will pester you until you give up or say you aren't interested. They even make promises they can't keep, in order to get you to the interview. The last time I was l

Why is that? They deliver more mail than all the other US carriers combined, and deal with almost half of the worlds mail traffic. For the truly massive amount of traffic they deal with, they are incredibly accurate and fast. If you have

A couple reasons. We run extremely lean, and only have one customer service person. If you come to the site every day, and have spent money on some of our content, and then one day the site is broken, that's a problem. The other reas

When the user adblock percentage of our website hit 30%, we decided to try out anti-adblock solutions. We worked with a company that used various tricks to get around the adblock protection, and then serve ads. This was a great success, at

There are 15 other developers, so what's the problem? I assume you gave 2 weeks notice and such. Whoever pushed the date back should have considered you, assuming you are an important part of the project. Not your problem. Go.

Went to a revolving sushi bar tonight. Everything was automated. They even had a touchpad where you can put in orders (like miso ramen soup), which get delivered by a belt. The only thing the servers did was sit us and bring us water. W
