Interesting. I never heard that. I have been a big Oakley fan for a long time because I felt they did make nice lenses and sold them when I worked at a running store in college.

Gmail in my opinion was powerful because it was used search vs. painstakingly moving messages into folders. It also had auto-threading so you would not have the clutter of re:re:re:re: ad nauseum... And most of all it was very fast.

I would say their search engine definitely has improved to the point you no longer need "google-fu" and can just type in a question as if you were asking an all knowing Oracle. So yes, I think they now have a deep understanding of

I think another reason we want to hire B is because if we have only As we are more susceptible to group think. It is good to have people of many different types to prevent that.

Interesting idea. I wonder if there is any correlation to the number and types of books you have read and at what age. Would consumption of other story telling mediums such as movies, tv, video games, etc. be similar? I would guess books al

100 miles a week will tax the bio-mechanics of most people in the first world. Granted doing those 100 miles at 10 min/mile is far, far easier than doing it at 6:00 to 7:00 pace. And doing lots of LSD (long slow distance) DOES have pro

I kind of see your point but not sure I agree. A fulfilled life can be so many things to so many people. It can be about fitness/sports, or knowledge/learning, children, marriage, family, friendships, religion, travel, material th

That used to be true but if you get a used car that has records of regular oil changes and maintenance there is a high probability it will be fine. Most cars are designed to last 200k or more miles these days. Think of it this way, is the d

As in once you have enough money to live in the returns you don't need to work, you can have much more flexibility in how you and where you spend your time. Contrast that with a person living paycheck to paycheck who is one flu or brok

I live in the bay area and I mostly hesitate to use my bike more due to theft and/or some areas where there are many cars and stoplights. I have a big thick U lock which will probably keep it fairly safe at least in the suburbs. It tak

Oh and in my empty nester scenario earlier they could be as young as 40 and as old as 70+ so not all would qualify. You definitely taught me something new though!

I posited that laws should be reviewed after X years and if there was not a compelling reason (with proof) to continue them then they would lapse. This would hopefully ensure that only really useful laws would even be bothered to be created

I think the larger disincentive is simply downsizing (such as the common pattern of becoming an empty nester) or moving in general causes supply to be very scarce. Moving to a smaller and cheaper home might result in the exact same monthly

The bay area cities allowed lots and lots of commercial real estate but relatively little residential (apartments and homes) to be built more or less in the entire bay area. Where were those workers supposed to live? A decent article detail

Closer to 4:35. 4:30 would be under 1:58. Every second slower is obviously 26 seconds. So he missed the record by 1 second per mile!

Fair enough. What I usually do is copy-pasta the whole thing to a word doc and try to get it down to one or two pages by deleting text and resizing images. Print the thing out and tape it somewhere noticeable (near the home TV?) until you h

The problem is there isn't a silver bullet "single exercise". Frankly if an article with 7 pictures is too long for you to invest in your health that is concerning. The video suggestion is a good one though I have a similar c

With density (usually) comes more traffic and more requirement for services. That is what the people that are already there want to prevent. That being said that will always be the case and most cities find a way to deal with this though wi
