I haven't followed Meetup in much detail, but it seems like they lost their way. "Meetup" has become a common noun in many circles tech-related and beyond...i.e., most people know about meetup.com and what it does. But despit

So simple but so clever. I don't wire-frame enough to justify buying this but I wish you the best of luck!

I like the parenting part: he let his kids use sharp knives at 4yo because if they hurt themselves, they'd learn. "I'd much rather have a kid with nine fingers than a resourceless kid." I love the idea in theory...but re

The rules listed are a bit more eclectic than those found in most published books & articles, perhaps because it's a crowd-sourced list. I particularly like "Give yourself permission to suck." It's the spiritual twin

Along with that kind of passive income comes passive risk (i.e., risk you have zero control over). Not saying you're wrong, but it's something to keep in mind based on your goals.

The logic behind quoting FEMA is that the figures in there seem to contradict the mainstream media accounts of the USA not doing anything right about the Puerto Rico disaster. Of course, figures alone mean little without context, but they s

To be clear, I didn't meant to call the GP's statements propaganda. I meant to call the barrage of anti-Trump media propaganda, because that's typically what one calls anything that's almost exclusively one-sided. It see

You're welcome! Didn't mean to sound like a jerk, but I run a service that helps copywriters and content-writers write better, so this kind of thing tends to jumps out at me. Best of luck!

Looks pretty. However for a service that claims to provide me the best words to put on my resume, the tagline "write impactful resumes" is rather harmful. "Impactful" is clunky. "Effective" is what you want. Bu

I still think this "white nationalism" thing is a false flag designed to stoke anger on the left. Not clear from the article if it's equating white nationalism with white supremacy. In moderation, there's nothing wrong w

Sounds like the beginning of a good story. I really want to know what happens with this guy. Would be nice if Google didn't limit the visibility of a book published in the 17th century.

If you have an arbitrarily large sum of money like $1b, you should have the allure and social connections to assemble a syndicate of financiers and acquire the damn thing. I'd de-list Facebook and make it into a not-for-profit corporat

Since when is austerity a neoliberal policy? Or neoconservative? Or anything from any prevailing modern style of politics?

Political labels in general aren't very meaningful. But "alt-right" (as I remember it) was a more sinister term denoting support for extreme beliefs like racism, etc.

by m52go 9y ago
Not sure the term "alt-right" will grow as much as it will dilute as it's applied to everyone who doesn't conform to the mainstream liberal platform. Just associating the term to James Damore is ridiculous. A couple week

First, in light of how they handled the Google memo... Screw Gizmodo. But regarding the article itself, seems to be a nothing-burger. Once upon a time, we favored shorter complex passwords. Now, we favor longer intuitive passwords. The end.

Sundar Pichai's reaction was also flawed...he mistook 'neuroticism' for 'neurotic' and asserted the memo called women neurotic. https://medium.com/@100millionbooks/2-things-about-that-goog...

To be clear, I didn't create that site. I found it elsewhere and linked it here. But yeah, to reiterate what I said in the article, the Gizmodo version is terribly lacking and not worthy of being called the 'full' version eve
