To ride on this, I get pretty consistent results similar to this with hair clippers from Walmart and the smallest attachment they come with. I didn't even really think about it, but I'll probably get a "Beard and Mustache Tr

Sounds like a good time to meet 100 of your neighbors and start a community ISP. If I were Netflix, I'd definitely be outspoken about that being a solution everyone should look into. And I might even throw some money around if I were

Good, now the rest of the world needs to adopt this model. I understand some of the contempt towards drug addicts, but at the end of the day these people are sick in some way. We (Americans, and much of the world) have spent years demoniz

That's not true. Netflix has a site comparing internet speeds far before this year to illustrate how it was being throttled.

Have you heard of bitcoin's lightning network? There is a layer they're working on that, as I've heard it, allows 1 million transactions a second for a fraction of the transaction cost. It's not VISA, but it's a h

Are a blast of sugar and carbs generally eaten for breakfast healthy? No, of course not. All of the research in the past 10 years screams no.

I think this opinion is very narrow minded. Who is the person you're trying to convince with this thought? No one is doubting that we are doing this overseas, that doesn't make it any less concerning that it is happening here.

So as far as I understand, the answer to that is really "it depends". I'm not a doctor, I just find this stuff interesting. If you do it properly, I think you can supplement things like testosterone in a sustainable way, yo

As far as I know, there really isn't too much risk associated with hormone replacement therapy. If you add that into the mix, I'd be surprised to see any significant shifts over the human lifespan.

These failed because they built all of their hype around "we have a truck selling them in random cities for a couple days" and they weren't interesting enough to buy second market. To be honest, I didn't even realize I

Since undergrad while taking economics classes, I thought this was entirely obvious. And honestly, I still do. To assume everyone is a rational actor is to assume everyone is perfect: they don't make mistakes, they don't have as

A few years ago we discovered a new ligament in the knee. Knee injuries that frequently require surgery are so common in children that it's considered an epidemic. I don't really have a good answer to why we don't know abou

by nscalf 9y ago
Do you have a history of knee issues? If not, you may want to check out some mobility stuff (mobilitywod.com). For me, tight hip flexors + IT band + achilles meant the whole system was tight and hurt after a bit of use. Check it out.

Well this is definitely one way to do things... The reality of it is if you're making a project, and everyone is on board with the standards of how to do things and it's not making it unnecessarily confusing, you're practici

The Art of Learning by Joshua Waitzkin. I was definitely in the right place to take in the topic, but it was, more or less, a book on how you can be "good" without much effort, but to be great or the best, it takes a lot of hard

...does this really not exist yet? That's so simple and such a seemingly necessary feature. That and a heart rate monitory seem like the only two reasons to get a watch.

I'm sure it's not valid across the board, but most of the internet shortenings that we use in english are acronyms---lol, stfu, wtf, rofl, hbu, asl, etc. I'm actually having a hard time thinking of some common abbreviations.

I don't think this has anything to do with diversity, and I don't know of any way this could be measured, but I'd love to see the difference in the level of passion for the average engineer hired in SF vs ATL. I moved across

I feel like that's chasing symptoms though. If you push a bunch of women into tech and women aren't treated well in tech, you haven't solved the problem of women being treated poorly in tech, instead you've made more pe

Does anyone else find the trend to push diversity into everything disturbing? The incentives around programs like these seem misaligned. No company discusses why there are clear gender divides in jobs, i.e. more women in nursing, more men

The thought of Uber failing is reminiscent of Myspace shifting to Facebook, Napster shutting down, etc. I don't think they're going to fail, but if they do, I don't think much would really happen. Lyft would get a big boost

So I never really got too deep into math, once I decided I wasn't going into physics as a career I backed off, but this throws me back into 12th grade AP Physics exams. I'll never forget refusing to take a bad grade on a matrix p

For all of the hate that Trump gets (I personally think most of it is earned), he has touched on some really important issues that have been ignored for a long time. Infrastructure is one of those.
