This article is acually really interesting and well-written. I don't find the headshot photo of the American guy as creepy or toothy. And I don't think it's weird for a cashier to smile and have a conversation with a customer

So amazingly untrue... do you pay extra for usb sticks, or do you buy 2 of whatever is cheapest unless something is extremely mission critical?

There is no nobility in being reserved anymore. Furthermore, the way these lawmakers treat us is the only crass thing occuring.

Time for some career politicians and grassroots campaigners to drum up a witch hunt to "regulate 3D printers" so that nobody out there can make a receiver without a permit ^.^

I agree with you! Here's my thought on the likely cause: Capital is controled by a small number of relatively old people. They give that money to companies as an investment, and tell CEOs "make sure you have managers keeping eyes

It has nothing to do with sales attitude and everything to do with empirical evidence of who large corporations (and their employees) decided to hire for these jobs.

at first glance, yes i think this is the case, especially people straight out of college a similar trend happened with dell, hp, oracls and ibm- gone are the older, whiter males making over 100k base to sell to corporations as "trusted

Viva el Ecuador! Julian Assange is a national hero and does not deserve, at the very least, to rot in an American prison. May Ecuador continue to provide him safe keeping. And may all the UK citizens out there elect a government that won&#x

US bikes aren't allowed on interstates, but they are allowed on major roads which do have nice shoulders Unfortunately, even with wide shoulders and good visibility, "accidents" still happen thanks to unalert/hostile dri

Absolutely agree with you. Unfortunately in the US, auto makers and the peripheral industries have the politicians and most of the public opinion in a death grip It isn't worth holding our breath for even a token bike highway project L

I suppose it's possible that x% of the injuries are not a big deal, but even just broken bones open the door to chronic disease (arthritis, nerve impingement) and potential disability. Traveling by car can also put you at risk of perma

The reason I chose cycling injuries is because a cycling injury is usually quite serious and debilitating- aka, it might as well be a death, because you will not be able to live life quite the same after. Furthermore, 49,000 cycling injurie

I love riding my bike, but the stats are quite grim for road deaths AND injuries https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cyclist_deaths_in_U.... 49,000 people in the US are injured on the road every year- You may say i

You would need to sue them in a court of law if they don't comply, which involves hiring a lawyer, which of course is needlessly expensive. A bank that follows the law after your money has gone poof is the /best/ situation yo

Agreed. Unfortunately, when you take your social network public, investors demand growth. When user growth plateaus, it seems FB has chosen to be more aggressive in forcing you into their network ^.^

The first tier is 3 days. Additionally, you need to spend money to be made whole, which you can of course sue for legal costs afterwards. These are non-trivial steps and there are not many banks waiting out there to just give you your money

To make matters worse, they're only insured to 250k in the event of a bank failure (running out of money) having your account or identity hacked, on the other hand, you are on your own to make sure the bank replenishes your account ^.^

It certainly is. Many decades of misplaced public morality and "desire for justice" has turned the justice system into an apparatus that is entirely overreaching yet still tremendously powerful. Public support for it is still ther

That's fine, and when you run into a merchant that doesn't care, make sure you have a credit card company like mine that takes disputes seriously ;)

Sure you could try it, but it is very hit and miss. Typically you will be bounced around from hotline to hotline until you are worn out, or they tell you yes/no refund. With a credit card company that has a decent level of respect for

I'm pretty sure Paul Lutus, the author of Apple Writer ($$$), used to handwrite code from his cottage in Oregon and mail it to Apple to be implemented If it worked for him then surely it could work for you ^.^

Cool link, thank you. Ultimately people are allowed to express themselves in whatever way they wish, but this particular construction feels a bit obtuse, unnecessary, and as your link noted, informal. I was speaking with a linguist from my
