A consumer of Walgreen's stock, which needs something new, anything, to juice attention and move the price, since it's taboo to be a public company that just cruises along. The de facto primacy of stock performance in executive qu

Fair enough. In that case the policy should not be changed because the crimes involved are low-value and should not be a target of scarce (by the department's estimation) police resources, particularly with respect to the crimes being

For all of its faults, YT is a known quantity.

I believe this already exists. However, my impression is that while they may ask for your github, no potential employer ever actually checks it.

Aside from how well targeting works (it doesn't), it's a bit presumptuous to assume resources on a user's machine are free for the taking, much less justifying it with an assumption about "unused" services running

I think it's an interesting idea to expose webboards with NNTP as an additional method to, say, RSS.

They are necessarily hierarchical, which is to say "yes, technically." I think the way that Twitter deals with this without any kind of expando functionality is one of the more interesting problems in mainstream UIs nowadays. This

I have been really surprised that there hasn't been any apparent innovation in educational technologies and classroom concepts.

"Very familiar" feels pretty squishy, aren't there fairly standard HR terms for these levels of knowledge? I'm pretty sure it's less than "proficient" which is less than "expert," and I feel ther

It's good, but there has to be a better introduction than a 3hr documentary.

I don't have kids or anything more than an academic interest, but from what I gathered, "hybrid/remote" involved the most brain-dead approach to learning environments possible. It seems/seemed like they just looked

An effective homeless program probably has to include rehab, occupational therapy, and related services, yes.

No, I wouldn't be surprised, that's why I used the word "planning" instead of "assuming" or "leaving them to..." As the saying goes, "Failing to plan is planning to fail." In SF you have to

The city isn't spending $837K to house one homeless person, they've spent that on housing the first homeless person in that unit. Unless they're planning on these people never improving their situation to the point of movin

Well, what should have been done is enforce laws (and pass legislation if necessary) to prevent the SROs from being allowed to decline into slums.

What are some examples of complex solutions to simple problems? That is, where a solution doesn't result in a reduction of complexity? I can't find any. And this is where the increased complexity is necessary for a solution, not

I would think that either FB-level facial recognition, or Disney-level copyright/ContentID frame recognition would be helpful for all this. I don't suppose they're thinking of open-sourcing it.

There's ~4000 accredited universities just in the US. Even just the top 1% is 4x what you're thinking. I think the problem with the statistic is that it points to tenure-track maybe not being meritocratic.

It was a major Super Bowl commercial, I have to think its creative path was lit pretty brightly in everybody's minds. They didn't just pick it out of a stack of papers. At all. Of course I'm no business mercenary with exper

So it's still deceitful, just a different kind of deceit that can...I dunno, be cast as more acceptible? I'm not sure what kind of judgement either of those alternatives shows in an industry that has, I hope we can agree, credibil
