Do you seriously think that "deliciousness" has any bearing on whether or not it is right to do something?

I had to install their app to get in line at a local restaurant. Immediately uninstalled. I don't see why people use Yelp other than the fact that they have a mindshare dominance on ratings. User generated/internet 2.0 style food

> That being said, when there is a pattern, there is a pattern. There is a pattern of mentally unhinged men being radicalized by the right wing and committing heinous acts of violence with guns.

Ugh. This is nonsense. Do you think Timothy McVeigh was inspired by Doom?

I had the same reaction at the exact same point in the article. Are couples out there really not sharing chore responsibilities? Maybe my wife just got lucky. Whatever. In any case I don't see what the kitchen island could possibly hav

How do you know they're paid by the companies? I've made a comment similar to that before and I stand by it. Wish I would've known I could get paid to post it!

Maybe we should have smaller bins?

I have a huge-mixed-80lb-border collie mutt and I'm grateful that I get to work from home. She likes to play hide and seek with toys and go for walks all day. My point is that working from home rules, I suppose.

I tend to be a pretty pessimistic person and I happen to agree with you. Regardless of how hopeless our current position might seem to some, there is an absurd amount of sheer panic and terror that you just happen to be exposed to because y

It feels more and more that people go to cool places just to prove they have as many resources as their peers. Travel and social media is just an extension of "keeping up with the Jones's" but on a personal identity level- on

Ugh. I will _always_ prefer friction to my own convenience if it means some person can have a job. I could care less about efficiency and I could care less about some shareholder's bottom line. Maybe I would feel differently if we live

I have an i5 version of this. Bought it from the refurb store in 2014 and it is the best computer I have ever owned. Unfortunately the keyboard is getting a little finicky, presumably from dust. In any case 6-7 years is a pretty impressive

Not yet, but it seems obvious to me that the GP was referring to a situation where the price changes and then you are getting gouged. That's exactly what the negative connotations of lock-in refer to.

This is changing rapidly as housing costs skyrocket in anywhere remotely urban.

Heh. Well, I realize this is anecdotal, but I'd probably still be smoking a pack a day if I hadn't tried out e-cigs as a cessation tool. It really makes it easy. Smoke and Vape free for around 4 years now.

I have _never_ used teams. I have seen it creep up in enterprise focused orgs but I have still never used it. As a remote worker Slack is my office, essentially, and I think it's done an amazing job at being an office for remote first

Hmm, this seems similar to what I do with Flickr. I have my NAS mounted to my MacBook where I process photos and transfer them to my NAS, the Flickr auto uploadr puts them up on Flickr. I wish this would be possible from my NAS which may be

Can you explain what the benefit of syncing between google photos and drive is? Is it just another backup?

Was going to use Dropbox pro as my photo handling solution but they don't support NFS!? I keep all of my photos on a NAS by my router. I'm sure there is some way around it but Flickr's auto uploader works fine with my NFS set

Anyone looking for alternatives- I've been using Flickr pro and loving it. It's cheap, no longer requires a yahoo auth, and works really well. I initially resisted when they changed their pricing scheme and set up my own "sel

I did it and it was worth it. I still dip into the gmail occasionally to see if I missed anything but it is essentially a spam email at this point.

I think it kind of gets lost in this debate- but lets say that the facts point towards a very grim outcome in the relatively near future. Now lets say we could possibly mitigate the grimness of that outcome with our actions...wouldn't

I had accidentally pushed an AWS credential out a month or two ago- within about a minute and a half AWS had disabled the IAM user, and automatically emailed me(as well as my entire org- how embarrassing!)- when we were going through the ac
