Yeah, I realized the coincidence after his Web page loaded and I was immediately given a headache by yet another serif font. It kind of does feel like the world is throwing "everything" at you when all the books are rendered in fonts that g

Why are you suggesting software you don't even know the feature set of? Your second statement is factually incorrect. Yes, I use Readability. What does "preferred font" mean to you? The aforementioned software allows for a fixed set of font

Quot capita tot sensus. How is it that you merely "think" you've got it, but in your own words immediately after admitting that, you demonstrate quite clearly that you actually did in fact understand? If you want to make friends, that's you

This is exactly what I'm talking about. You're overriding my dyslexic fonts with your inappropriate inline style just like how most developers (Facebook, Reddit, and a whole laundry list of others) fail to observe relative font-sizes or the

It helps. Each product can now be viewed as a general scientific hypothesis; so publishing your work is essential. You wouldn't be writing _on MVP development_ but rather exposing to everyone just how well you are at executing it. In my min

You !== Your Brain. This is not the kind of thing that science can "discover" and "more evidence" doesn't change that. Freedom of the will is a concept that also is embedded within our cultural gestalt/framework. We may _decide_ that such n

Not to sound crass, or maybe I want to sound crass. But this is just looking like a chess game now. As if we couldn't see this kind of thing coming with the way the movie industry portrayed hacking in the 80s and 90s. Public consciousness w

Honestly, "T L ; D N R" and "... Too Long; I didn't read it" Doesn't make sense. "N" does not pick out the beginning of any word. If you chance across the tag, your interpretation is less obvious than, "... Too Long; Do Not Read" The contra

It means "too long; don't read." I'm not sure why the past tense variation sticks; but it's a label/post-it/card/sign/placard/billboard/sign-post/warning/caute!/message not to read the identified text for concern of irrelevance. It's like a

Yes, but porn can sometimes be the worst drug. Sometimes I find the analogy between porn and drugs to add more obfuscation to my thoughts than clarity.

I do appreciate it. But I've become pretty good at fasting; so please, keep your money. What I really want is for my gittip-for-the-homeless idea to get off the ground; and that's more a matter of sharing the idea than building some app. In

And, uhm, yes. It's not just that hackers may have the disposition of "going to war" but "we the people" that pernicious rubbish, is turning those who are incapable of hacking, it's turning them into a new form of clientele. It's already ha

I'm not quite sure how to formulate this, since I count myself a hacker, of a sort, but I've also picked up a few hints about why my psychology is the way it is. There was the Age of Autism. My hand-wavey gloss is that we will see an Age of

It's a downvote with no commentary. If you cannot understand why that might be frustrating or seemingly inappropriate, when I demonstrate no light taking on the topic, or when I espouse critical beliefs, then let's just move on.
