With some of these I'm left debating what is a traffic light. Is the pole itself a traffic light? I really don't know. Also when it asks to select all the cars. Is a bus a car? Is a truck a car? I really don't know what it is

It’s not just Japan, but also a lot of the western world. People are getting married less often and having fewer children and my guess is that it’s largely driven by women opting out as they are a lot more selective in who they date and mar

I think the biggest problem I have with tipping is something I never hear people talk about -- it forces us to pay at the end instead of upfront. Usually the process goes like this: 0: sit, bring water, give order, wait for food 1: eat 2: w

I wonder how much of this has to do with relationships? If I was Chinese man who came to America for school and was single, I'd move back to China too. Study after study shows that the dating game odds are not good for that particular

Would any of you refuse to fly in a 737 max once it returns? I think I’d have a hard time getting on one, rational or not. I’d probably want to wait a year or more to see how things go and then maybe I’d feel ok. This had made me nervous fl

I live in Seattle but I'm currently in LA. Here in Santa Monica its out of control. I just went to Starbucks and a homeless person was harassing everyone in the line, very threatening -- and the security won't do anything about it

Sad to see it go. I was on the original Amazon Local team for about two years, that ultimately turned into restaurants. A lot of my growth came from the people on amazon local, really solid people and good people, the product just had troub

Your daughter will be ok. She can go anywhere and immediately find social groups and have no issues finding dates — if she gets online she can literally have hundreds or thousands of men ready to take her out. It’s completely opposite for m

There's a huge demographic shift in America. Do we expect things to remain the same?

Yesterday, a Virginia Beach city employee killed 12 people at his workplace. I've seen no pictures of him, I looked at several sources and it seems he's ignored for the most part. CNN is running pics of the victims https:/&#

This is just a other step in towards total control of our computing. We are seeing deplatforming, banning, blocking, etc, across large parts of the internet and this will only continue to grow. Britain is now proposing broad powers to regu

Any of the libvips bindings. Ffmpeg bindings. Hls and dash libraries. Any other wrappers around binaries in general. I found nice ports for syntax hi-lighting that I couldn’t find in java.

How did Cambridge Analytical impact people? People didn’t feel the pain so they do not care. Pain was felt in the Ashley Maddison leak — Google and Facebook has a lot more info than AM ever did, if it’s ever leaked it will be world ending f
