This option appeals to me the most. I'm relying on some cognitive shortcuts here, but I assume that due to its scale alone, no one is in a better position to recycle (or find recyclers for) Apple products than Apple itself. Thanks for

I haven't been around the block enough to know, but I'll take your word for it. What I don't understand is why anyone would complain about a post-mortem as PR. If that's what DO was up to here, I'm sold—it shows tra

Run a Plex server, and you can stream your own library of music from anywhere (one-time $5 purchase for your mobile app). Of course, this doesn't solve the issue of recommendations, but I personally see discovery and collection as two

I agree, and would go a step further to say that the response to PG is woefully exaggerated. The fate of the poor is truly deplorable in the US, but that doesn't mean that every conversation about risk, opportunity, and entrepreneurshi

Okay, sure. Let's include University of Wisconsin and not include the local community college. University of Wisconsin received north of 42,000 applications for the freshman class of 2019,[0] almost exactly the same number that Harvard

I meant “Harvard” as a metonym for desirable/high-status universities. Like it or not, when an employer has to sift through 100 applications for a single vacancy, a Harvard graduate is far more likely to still be in the running by the

This is a really interesting visual presentation of the data. Some cool observations: 1. The first five curves (1950–1990) are all in 10-year increments, so for instance, 1950's 20-year-old population maps very directly to 1960's
