Wow, almost 8 years I spent there after OiNK shut down. Invaluable community for discovering music (I found SO MANY artists through user's collages and the related artist graphs). I owe SO much of who I am as a music fan and human bein

Curious what your thoughts on Joel Salatin + Polyface farms are? I've read a small handful of his books and found them enlightening - if a bit preachy. From the perspective of never really farming for profit and only volunteering &#x2F

"Organic" food doesn't mean a whole lot, and it's produced at such large scales that the ecological benefits attributed to "organic" food aren't there. Now, on the other hand, you can apply those to small

I actually meant maybe we shouldn't be holding a heat and RF-emitting screen two inches from our eyeballs. My phone gets hot when streaming a lot of music - I can only imagine how hot it gets while using all that processing power to ru

Is nobody concerned about basically staring into a cell phone 2 inches in front of their eyeballs?

Google is just trying to get you to switch to their own cloud service - "Say goodbye to those “storage is full” notifications." It's not a differentiator from the iPhone it's a marketing bite. Not a lot to pull me into t

Most lines have working AC. But I bet that anyone (myself included) that complains about the NYC subway being hot is most likely referring to the 10-15 minutes of hell standing on a subway platform in absolute delirium-inducing 95 degree,

I'd assume I'm getting downvoted because I made a comment about my trepidation towards nuclear power.. If you lived within an emergency evacuation zone for a nuclear plant you may feel the same (disclaimer: I don't, but I liv

There's also the whole: subway = not air conditioned and miserable, uber = air conditioned and comfortable. Also, as a Hudson Valley resident for most of my life, Indian Point and nuclear power in general is a huge concern for me.

"Own few but good things" - love everything about this as it relates to living "modestly minimal" as I call it. Buy a small amount of high quality possessions, and take care of them.

Streaming live events with partnerships can be big for them. They streamed the NFL Thursday Night Football game last night and quality was impeccable (aside from my Bills getting the L). Much better experience IMO than Facebook's attem

The things I'd do for a Power Pete remake... iOS seems like a pretty good platform for it all told. I tried the emulator and managed to get it to run but everything was sped up 4x or so...

This is an interesting angle - have you had any feedback from colleges themselves? What's your expected price-per-semester for an average student without the 14-day-free trial?

Because when you're doing anything outside of git commit am- "whatever" it's nice to be able to see the complete implications of your actions, what files have been modified, what lines in those files have changed, etc.,

I guess I haven't had any UI issues with it as far as asset popping, although going through their "big update" and the related auth problems left it pretty much unusable for a full week.

It's unfortunate. I'd assume there was a good amount of re-location and development based on the speculation of Fiber being installed. Supposedly Google is now pursuing wireless, surely after they realized that city planners and e

What's really needed is a WYSIWYG GUI editor that exports all (custom and editable) fields to JSON, so you can use something like Middleman to generate a static site based on that content. This way, anytime someone updates and saves co
