I think it was in no small part about selling ads on Yahoo-owned media or through a Yahoo ad network.

Tick-borne diseases are not all similar but many of them are very, very nasty and Lyme Disease is not the worst of them. I’d love for my kids to be able to play in the weeds and woods with abandon the way I did.

I lived in Germany in the 90s and early 2000s, loathed techno, and I must admit that bouncing around a dozen or so of these videos gave me a flashback of nostalgia for lost youth mixed with the same desire to escape the music. No offense in

Yes - and my point being that, to my dismay, FB is the best and/or only way of consuming this information because it is the primary (increasingly the only) place this information is shared.

I wonder how many FB users are like me: people who don't identify as FB users bur who do actually use FB out of necessity, and pretty often. I've moved several times in the last year, and (unfortunately) FB is how I: - connect wit

No I cannot, and that is the rub. I don't have a Squarespace site. I'm just a web user who often uses the ESC key.

As a developer I was a big proponent of 'magic link' style authentication when it was new. As a user who occasionally runs into this now, I hate it.

I will pay them $100 - keep your stock - if they remove the insanely annoying feature that triggers login anytime a visitor hits the escape key on a site built with Squarespace.

I have all the Insanity and P90X videos, and stream them on a TV in the garage. This lacks gamification, but there are other ways to get the positive peer pressure (Strava, workout Slack channel, etc).

The craft $ANYTHING scene is a bigger deal in the US, but you can get better beer, bread, or cheese at almost any decent shop in Germany. There is a lot of Americanized crap in the stores, but if you know enough to avoid that, the bar for w

There's no analysis of this that doesn't boil down to accommodating immaturity. Worse, it protects English speakers from the mental model (reflecting reality) where other languages coexist with their own.

I'm not guessing that it's easy to misunderstand things one has not experienced - that's axiomatic. And there's nothing utopian about, for example, healthcare in Germany (with which I have a decade's experience) - i

The tail is wagging the dog here. A pretty genius marketing move proved to be too clever by half for corporate strategy-types, resulting in lost potential. They will not get this genie back in the bottle - the thrill is gone.
