I do my banking and food shopping at Walmart; I wonder if Whole Foods will offer this. Probably not, but I'm still excited to see Amazon moving into the food retail business.

Misleading title -- Vegetable juice isn't bad like fruit juice. We should be targeting "sugar" and not "fruit" or "juice." Sugar from fruit isn't as bad as processed sugar, but from my experiences, to

I'm disappointed in YCombinator and SamA's attitude towards Trump and his supporters throughout this campaign. However, it's not YCombinator's fault, and I will blame the Mainstream Media for successfully distorting the

...coming from the woman who became famous from posing nude and creating a sex (porn) tape. Calling all porn viewers "losers" is wrong; is this the correct label for those who suffer from a porn addiction? What about the couple wh

I'm living in Las Vegas right now, but Phoenix is one of my favorite cities. For me, the benefits include the low cost of living, the low stress traveling by car and public transportation, and a diverse nightlife. I grew up in NJ and I

Your evidence convinces me to agree with your position. On my mind always is the Yahoo Fantasy Football product. In the past few years, the NFL has grown and other fantasy products have grown in value. Why was Yahoo not able to do the same?

When I consider Yahoo's value, I think of email, fantasy football, news, and tumblr. All four seem to be struggling when compared to their alternatives, but each of the products appear to have great potential value. It's hard to d

I agree with you. Youtube is one of my favorite apps, but I cannot tolerate the advertisements. If I think of all the things that annoy me the most in the world; Youtube ads are in the top 3. I can, however, deal with 6 second ads, and it&#

No medical condition found yet and the doctors so far say I'm healthy and overthinking. My theory is that my central nervous system is weak, but I haven't proven this and I haven't found a doctor who believes me. Could be a m

Same here. I recently cut sugar and bread products and I experienced random dizziness. I was eating plenty of fruit and I was eating natural sugars. I decided to experiment one day; had 4 donuts, bread and butter, and my body felt better. N
