Nice one! I would probably want to see events like goals disallowed because of offside, or missed penalty shots, shown as well because they do affect the gameplay. E.g. the Argentina vs. Egypt game [1] had much more events than the 5 goals

Not sure about Google, but more than once I was about to book a flight on Expedia for the wrong week because by default it suggests a date 2 weeks from today, and if I need a flight for this weekend, I often pick the wrong date.

This fun game just made me realize that actually using analog watch does not require converting the time to HH:MM. I've been using analog watch for years, my Apple Watch face is set to analog and, apparently, I read the time as "

Speaking about paying for apps in general, I'm all for it. The moment a new app shows an ad, if this app seems useful to me, I'll go make a purchase if it's a single "remove ads" IAP with a reasonable price, where &

I wonder what's the thought process of all those people who decide that slopping a blog post is a good way to talk about anything. This could've been an interesting article if it was written by a human.

Not sure where I justified anything. I just said that it's not related. You can be a jerk or not, and your project can be successful or not.

Just for the record, I was responding to the (now flagged) comment which used some similar meaningless name calling towards the dissenting justices, to which I responded that this name calling game can be played by both sides.

You are surely oversimplifying it. The amendment clearly says "born or naturalized"; can hatching or transmogrification be considered a birth? We need to look at the original meaning of the word "born" in 1868. Also, it

The problem is that the other half of the country will probably have something to say about activist leftist justices with their agenda. This is just not the constructive way of arguing. Disclaimer: I'm a legal immigrant myself, and of

Were you so sure yesterday that the Court would decide the way it did? I'm sure that with a different set of justices, the result could've been different. A "clear" law would likely not result in a 6:3 vote. There are en

The U.S. Constitution is very far from being clear. The whole purpose of the Supreme Court is to explain the meaning of what is written in the Constitution; there are 9 justices in the court and they often disagree on that. Just look at the

If you still want to give the Russian literature a try, maybe Bulgakov? A little bit more modern (early 20th century); "A Young Doctor's Notebook" is probably what you are looking for in terms of engagement, clarity, suspense
