Wow that's real interesting. I've always been sensitive to caffeine, and I can't drink any after noon otherwise I won't be able to sleep easily at night (around 10pm). I started drinking a cup of coffee every morning to

I used to always wake up around 9:30am and now I have to be up at 6:45am everyday. Truthfully I was just sleep deprived for the first 2-3 weeks because I couldn't sleep before 10pm. Now I'm just so tired out. I recommend not drink

As do I. Droughts are still going to be a problem in the future if nothing changes and the next time one hits it might be much worse. Having good rainfall for a year or two unfortunately just lets people brush off the problems we may face.

I've seen several bike shares in the US in tourist areas and they were all awfully expensive (I want to say something like $5/hour or ~$15 for the day?). They also required you to park at one of the docking stations which wasn

It's the unfortunate thing about the US. Although I don't think it's impossible, having any decent quality bike would definitely get stripped like you said. The only way I can imagine this being implemented is if there are bi

They could definitely lower the search results and could definitely show the competitors if you searched for them without reprimand I believe. I remember when Google put google flights over competitors there was some legal action by the FTC

It's probably possible on an OS level but I'm guessing it's an expensive task. If you're playing a 3d game that's resource intensive and you want to check 'every' frame you'll surely take a performanc

How does this work? Do you run your browser in development mode with a script or is there some way to run css on all pages you visit (sorry I'm not a web person and my terminology is surely off).

I always figured if you had to do something illegal go to a public library you've never been to before and only use a computer once and never use it again. Also disguise yourself when you go. That being said you wouldn't be able t

I agree with you completely. Banning the devices is really not going to do anything but piss off customers (maybe make a few feel safer).

How did you put tens of thousands of hours at home? Are you referring to remote work in your house? Or did you somehow have enough money saved up to study for 10 hours a day, every day, for 6+ years?

Haha okay thanks for your advice. I'll definitely look into Ruby before building anything, then. Sounds like Sinatra might be better for me to start with if it's the simpler of the two.

If you're talking about real estate you need to check out San Francisco. I thought it was bad about 4 years ago when I moved to Japan and a 2 room was going for $3400.. it's even worse now.

Not to support Microsoft's decision, but I'd say your analogy is backwards. It's more like you can't upgrade your bathroom unless you redo all the pipes (which is somewhat feasible). Your example would say in order to ge

Well there are PC bricks, just not software bricks. I'd argue pouring coffee on your motherboard can brick it pretty easily. I think once the term became more widespread on mobile people used it for everything.

It's based on total operating costs--not the cost of the driver only. If you include how much they have to pay for everything else (developers, management, advertising, etc), the "cut" they get from each fare is less than how

I really never understood why Nintendo so stringently protects their IP to the point of essentially not allowing youtube videos. I understand why they require always on for Mario run but I just feel like their choices aren't the best.

You can't compare caloric content of lettuce to that of beef. Vegetarians don't stock up on lettuce to get calories. That being said, if every single person was vegetarian, I would bet we could get the efficiency of vegetable farm

Does anyone have experience with this? I can't imagine eating a "similar amount" with one day being healthy, low-calorie foods and the other day being junk food can be good for your health.
