The real issue is that a bunch of people have thought of this before, some even made websites and posted articles, but they didn't get on cnn.com (and the top of Hacker News) for it. So now they are hurt and upset.

Why does it have to be either or? Maybe your friend initially wanted to be friends with you for the utility reasons. But now over the years you've grown beyond that, you have a bond. This is one of the reasons it's so hard to get

I don't understand why people got so mad at King for this. People complained at all the Flappy Bird clones. That is exactly why King was trying to protect the candy trademark. King was just doing that the law requires them to do in ord

This. I have an AppleTV and a ChromeCast. I have a bunch of (legal) rips of the Simpsons. On the ChromeCast I have to load a single video in the Chrometab every time. The playback isn't always smooth. On the AppleTV, I drag VNC to the

It sounds like a lot of people comment don't actually own a glass. I do. It doesn't project anything into your eye and unless you tap it or use the head nod to turn it on, it doesn't display anything. And if you don't gi

To me it always seems like the driver tries to gage if you want small talk. I'm not a big talker in the cab, so usually the driver says one or two things and then stops talking. But when I'm in the car with some talkers, they have

I've been on a DIY soylent (diy.soylent.me) for over a month now and I feel full. I don't feel stuffed, I'm just not hungry anymore.

This is the reason I love the app Lift so much. It has literally changed my life. You setup daily habits and it encourages you to keep doing those habits every day.

There are plenty of things to catch on fire in a normal car. I've only own 3 cars and I've been in 4 car fires. (no one was hurt in any of them.) None of them involved the gas tank.

Calling it a subsidy seems weird to me. Every state I've lived in will pay you if you generate more electricity than you use. You are providing power back into the grid, of course you should be paid for it. That doesn't sound like

You have to say the same thing in several different ways. Everyone has their own ways of thinking and understanding so you must be as clear as possible and provide several ways to express the same idea. This will allow different readers to

I hate that. I also hate the the details button for a reminder is a blue "i" with a circle. To me that means Info, not edit or details.

We started using Cucumber 6 months ago and I hate it. My biggest issue is that it's unreliable. 90% of the test failures work if you do it exact same steps manually. It seems like it always times out waiting for something on the page t

What do women have to do with my comment? My comment wasn't even about our industry, it's about creating works that other people will see. This applies to men and women equally.

Welcome to life. I've been wondering how the "everyone is special" and "everyone wins!" trends that people have been teaching their children would manifest. This looks like a good example. If you do anything that ot

I learned to speed read years ago, and this breaks that for me. One of the keys with speed reading is that you don't read every single word. With this I was reading every word. It felt slower and tiring. The test said that it did not i

The books I'm reading now are 5.69 a book. If it's a long month or they are short books I can get through maybe two a month. So while $9.95 is slightly cheaper, it just doesn't seem worth it to me. I'd rather pay more
