Nothing is really wrong per se with a $700 luxury juice product. And I'm sure the juice is fantastic. But a $700 juicer is like a $700 Swaine Adeney Brigg umbrella. The difference is that Swaine Adeney Brigg realizes that it's a n

Sure you could, just add "parking" before "brake." A brake issue is serious when it prevents a car from stopping -- not so much when it keeps a car stopped.

Interesting that the official response from Snapchat never denies the quote.

The battery issue is not that simple. Mirrorless cameras need to keep the sensor active and the LCD or electronic viewfinder on during framing/composition, whereas the DSLR only needs to do this for the 1/60th of a second when the

But is there anything more personal than a computer programmer writing a bot to send messages for him?

Of course they will. If a hit man cuts your brake lines, Ford will not be liable.

An attachment would need to be an executable though, or use an RCE exploit in the email client or document viewer.

Even as a city dweller I agree with you. Reed does not understand the rural person's ability to live a seemingly self-contradictory life, to "contain multitudes," an ability born out of necessity as rural dwellers depend on e

My use for the timing capabilities of the 240Hz camera has been in measuring the shutter speeds of antique film cameras, which tend to get slower with age. So I find myself using a 240Hz camera from 2016 to calibrate and use a film camera f

φ is expressed in terms of 1, so if you have "φ" you have "1."

Unlimited-consumption pricing for products that burn oil are terrible for investors, but seem to be great for customers, while it lasts.

They are probably "bitching" because they are struggling against titanic obstacles when many of them could have cushy desk jobs in Indianapolis. If an ISP wants to help them, it would be to participate in their mission, not just t

Boiling water is difficult when you're gathering your own firewood and may not have metal bowls.

I wonder what they define as "code." Uber often rolls out "Kittens for a day" style features, some of which are topical and can't have been designed before the previous app update.

I don't think this will work because I don't think modern megacorporations suffer consequences for poor ethics the way normal-sized local businesses did a hundred years ago. If the local tannery was run by a bad person, people wou

For many, that standardization is a feature rather than bug. I really like that I can mix and match anything and have it look visually consistent. I am a big fan of the products although I build them slightly nonstandard (extra lag screws,

I wonder if the availability of Uber and self-driving cars is a major threat to Drizly. I assume that one of the big reasons people want alcohol delivered is that they're already drunk and can't drive to get more.

GoToMeeting charges $50/month so it is 1/3 the cost of GoToMeeting, at least at the individual subscriber level.

Being less "elitist" does not mean that standards are any lower. For example, electrician is not an elite or elitist profession, but the quality of electrical work is very high, because there are strict standards, developed carefu

Well, at least if you ascertain that the Roku is watching you, you can throw it out and only be out $50 instead of $500+ for the TV.

Since the average starting salary of a coal miner is $60-70k in the rural geographies where coal is mined, I'd say that yes, a coal mine in San Francisco would likely pay $100k.

Trump still has 24 hours in every day, and every hour that he's not talking to someone like Kalanick or anyone else, he is talking to Steve Bannon, possibly the most malevolent force to ever inhabit US politics. This is why Jared Kushn

Lyft is more expensive, which explains its better pay and its smaller ridership. I don't think this is sustainable because of what you've observed, which is that the smaller ridership pushes drivers away from the platform, making

Walmart doesn't negotiate it's prices, but still keeps them very low. I don't agree that outright refusal to negotiate is incompatible with market compensation. Of course, that could still happen.

Taking negotiation off the table is simply another form of negotiation. Most car dealerships negotiate; CarMax does not. CarMax simply says, "this is the price, take it or leave it." That attracts some customers, and repels others
