All due respect, but it's hubris to conflate an affection for the urban lifestyle with being "high on the 'openness to experience' spectrum". There was even a story on HN just in the last few days exploring the bias

You've done some cherry picking with your examples, and I would postulate that your innate tolerance (or possibly desire) for the full spectrum of unavoidable social collisions probably influenced your decision to live in NYC. Having l

IIRC the media arm is a separate company now, but that's an excellent example.

A lot of this type of content being produced and/or promoted by an internet company based in Boulder, and I can assure you they are all in on the con. Some of them want to focus more on yoga and health food, but the audience numbers ha

I've had acceptable results with GeoServer, OpenLayers, OSM, and PostGIS. I've occasionally done proof of concept work with Leaflet, but that's always turned into Google Maps eventually. MapBox isn't perfect yet but I&#x

English is a kids language... sure you can use it for your PhD thesis and the rest of your career, but there's no disputing that a lot of kids know it too; parts anyway.

Isn't this similar to posting on SoundCloud with no specific intent or expectation? Publishing content is an easy way to make it available on a bunch of devices, so if you're not concerned with outcomes then what's the differ

I think that will happen actually. It would open some some interesting possibilities.

I'm sorry, but that reads like gibberish. I think I remember Zcash from my Keybase account, but now I'm going to associate it with these other experiments irrespective of how legitimate it might otherwise be.

The push for compostable plastics is a reasonable response to the insane amount of plastic waste that ends up in the oceans and elsewhere, despite the prevalence of recycling programs. Using more energy is a fair trade even if it's sou

In Boulder the recommendation is to add pizza boxes to the city-collected compost. This is even better than recycling since compost is more likely to be handled locally.

There are workshops to prepare you for running for office, and it doesn't have to be all consuming. I'd like to see more support for credentialed STEM professionals who are willing to take time out of a career to hold public off

Ah, yes: eight grand is a lot for a laptop. I can't imagine jumping through hoops for an OS I'll mostly experience as a browser and a command line, but if you're set on it I'd definitely hold out for a NYC trip in the Fa

I'm with you but not because of price. It is still under $4K with a 1TB SSD, which is right in line with my other MPBs. I'd expect to spend about the same on the now inevitable Dell.

I'm not particularly fond of how OpenShift is put together, but it does seem like you're overreacting somewhat. CoreOS is pretty well aligned with Fedora, so it makes sense for it to go there organizationally. And while it's
