What is broken in Safari compared to Chrome and Firefox? I occasionally hear “Safari is the new IE”, but as a designer, I could use a little developer education as to what is actually deficient.

I'm a recent US -> Canada migrant, and though I agree that there are less services, it seems to have changed a lot since you made this list. I personally have: - Amazon Prime - Apple Pay - Planet Fitness - Uber and Lyft - 24/7

Yes. It's big in the gay circuit party scene. Along with GHB.

(I swear, not astroturfing.) I can't speak for other major US cities, but in my neighborhood in Chicago, Aldi is right there at the Wilson and Granville train stops. And those are not exactly the highest income areas.

Can't wait to see how fantastically expensive the Uptown and Edgewater station reconstruction ends up being. (They should have thrown in another billion to rebuild the Sheridan stop. Now that's a narrow platform.)

Aldi's can be a bit drab, but the actual quality is fantastic. (I don't understand how Aldi's has the best fresh pineapples.)

There are a variety of aromatase inhibitors which prevent conversion to estrogen. But they tend to have not great effects on cholesterol and lipids. And, the stronger ones, notably exemestane, can bring your estrogen levels too low on a T

$700–$800 a month, in the U.S., with the usual "who knows what insurance pays" caveat. Good ol' injectable testosterone is a full order of magnitude cheaper.

I've started using NetNewsWire on the Mac in...2005? Earlier? They can pry RSS from my dead cold hands. I wish ReadKit didn't seem abandoned. Great keyboard shortcuts, Pocket integration, and no attempts to algorithmically sort it

It depends on how much power the provincial government has here, and how the relationship with the city government evolves. The mayor and the new premier are both members of the Progressive Conservative party, but John Tory and Doug Ford ar

Was it run out of the U of I? This was more early-1990s, but my first internet was a BBS out of Bradley University in Peoria. Ah, the sweet scream of ZTerm on a Performa.

Any good analysis out there as to why the UP Express hasn't done so well? I took it just this week, and it's certainly better than the bus they have to shuttle from the end of the subway line to Pearson.

I am constantly hopping back and forth between Chicago and Toronto to be with my boyfriend. I have never been seriously questioned on either side, though I think I get a slight bit more side eye on the U.S. side when I mention the same-sex

I am absolutely a sucker for the look of Kodachrome, and I'm glad I managed to shoot one roll before processing of it ended. The processing itself is rather convoluted and interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#x2F

I can understand that it's probably not the finest source for summarizing research, but it is the largest newspaper, and the country's de facto newspaper of record. It's not like it's the New York Post.

Those vestigial back seats are probably there just to make the car cheaper to insure. A 2-seat sports car screams "death machine" to insurance companies. Not a big deal at the Corvette/Cayman prices level, but arguably quite

This is me half-heartedly playing devil’s advocate. I think a lot of other people have caused more harm, but they are going after him and his toys because he’s being such an obnoxious little shit. But that’s a bit of a problem. You get one

He’s an absolutely loathsome creature, up to and including the point where he put out a bounty for Hillary Clinton’s hair. (It’s just a joke, guys! C’mon! Just bros bein’ bros!) But that’s the problem. You can’t really have rule of law and

I am a UI designer in the States, and I've been working on moving to Toronto to be with my partner. I was going to keep my US job, and work remotely, but boy, it'd sure be easier with a Canadian job offer.

Anecdote is the plural of data: I have never smoked tobacco, ever, and am a frequent marijuana user. Also anecdata: people don't smoke cigarettes as much, but they sure do vape. I live in a neighborhood where you can pretty brazenly wa

I've seen "it's the 3DS OS, but maybe rewritten" several times now. I'm interested to learn more about this. Not for any practical use (well, maybe hacked Pokémon), but just to understand the choice. I naively figur

The right thinks Soros funds everything. The left thinks the Koch brothers fund everything. Me, I'm waiting around for a shadowy billionaire to fund my histrionic internet posting. $30/per trolling comment seems fair.
