I think this is the best way to look at projects like these. It's not an exercise in efficiency, or even attempting to prove that HTML + CSS is somehow better than a JS version. I think it's about getting as much as you can out of

Exactly. Companies need to stop pretending that they are selling their customers on "disruption" or "a movement". Consumers are not dumb. We see through all the marketing-speak and see your product for what it is. If its

I disagree about muli-column layouts, as I tend to like them. I think it just comes down to preference. The best solution would be to offer multiple views based on user preference. The rest is spot on though. A little too specific and un-ch

I had the same experience. Me and my SO ordered on and off for a few months, mostly just to try out new recipes and get ideas. Out of everything we tried we've only gone back to make 4 or 5 of the recipes on our own (without re-orderin

This is the issue I have with all the bitcoin 'counter arguments'. They all revolve around tulip mania/fad status, yet a good number of the detractors admit to and acknowledge that the gold standard is no different. If nothin

Agreed. I see this as a problem with HR and recruiting in general, not a Google problem. The only reason this is news at all is because Google is in the title. Replace that with any other company name and it just describes another position

As someone who has major "on" and "off" period swings of productivity due to depression, this list is pretty on the mark. One thing I would add, which I've seen around here and other places, is the "no zero day

She doesn't have a point other than "I want more help around the house and my husband won't listen". That's not a failing of anything other than the husband's ability to listen and her ability to be upfront wit

How is the NFL responsible for those murders? He didn't start in the NFL until 2010, after he had already been involved in a double shooting and bar fight. Also, there is no direct evidence that CTE leads to murdering people.

If he wasn't put in jail with a lifetime sentence would he still have committed suicide? Maybe. Maybe not. There's no was to know his thoughts leading up to the suicide.

I see your point, unfortunately it will be hard to parse what the extent of the CTE was and how it affected him in combination with the results of his trial. I just know that if I were in the shoes of the victims families, it would be crush

Poetry is like visual art or music, sometimes there is nothing to "get". Of course there are ways to approach analytically, but I don't believe that's where the awesomeness can be found. To me its about connecting to a p

While it's easy to jump on the Equifax Sucks Bandwagon (they do), I find it hard to believe that the degree earned has anything to do with this breach. Are you absolutely certain that if their Chief Security Officer had a degree in CS

Personally I believe there's more to a good hire than good-on-paper qualifications. But when you hinge your argument and lawsuit on objective qualification then the burden of proof would lie on the accuser to prove its true.

As frustrating as these topics can be, I think it's much better to have the discussions then to just shut things down a-la-China. My fear is that this particular case could set a precedence of the "pipe lines" controlling the
