Come on, this should be really easy to fix. If MailChimp is really sending you so many emails that you are upset with their service, you should be able to make your own MailChimp account and tell them that your email address requires doub

Many of these are due to the use of unstructured strings, which we do because we’re lazy. We’re so lazy about it that our modern languages don’t even support the ability to distinguish user strings from application strings (perl’s taint mod

My first reaction was curiosity of how they would know the performance of plaintext email, so to spoil the surprise these are HTML emails with a plain design . HTML is still required to track how many people open the email, though obviousl

Let's not overlook that once a single self driving car understands these local, informal rules, ALL self driving cars will. That's about a million times better than the current situation where every new human driver has to learn t

Tesla know this. Don't forget that every car they make records telemetry and tests new algorithms. It would be great to see Elon stomping around stage like Ballmer: "data, data, data, data, data, data, data!"

I saw the same thing in Boston. Instead of "violating the rules", I would say that local drivers obey a set of unwritten local rules that are more appropriate for the situations they encounter. These local rules make things safer

If Amazon moved to the Gulch, employees would probably live in O4W, Decatur, Midtown, or Buckhead, and take MARTA in.

In the 6 years from 2010 to 2016, metro Atlanta has added 94,000 "housing units". No one would even notice an extra 5%. Over the same period we also added 259,000 jobs, and 4% more isn't going to fundamentally change anythin

MARTA has neither the coverage or the competence to qualify as 'decent'. Compared to New York, Chicago, DC, Boston, or SF sure. Assuming Amazon isn't going to expand to a more expensive city, the only competing subway syste

The premise is interesting, but some of the calculations aren't convincing. The first map of cities that "did produce 5,000 extra housing units beyond household formation" is particularly strange. Which city is more prepared

First, Lenovo doesn't receive any money when you buy a used laptop. Second, using a ten year old laptop sends a much stronger message than buying a new, slightly alternative laptop. Third, security is like history - if you want to get

Yes, the comments here assume that life outside of working for a paycheck is “preference”. I expect most commenters are unmarried, don’t have children, and think that money by itself solves problems. It seems like I was there not so long ag

Device specific extra pixels were a bad idea. Further modifying web design standards to account for them is making the problem ten times as bad. Where's the CSS declaration that tells Safari to make those pixels black so no one has to

There are a lot of armchair comments here, so let me throw in my 2¢: the market is bigger than you think, customers will place a heavy premium on new over used, they are willing to spend more than you think, and they aren't especially

If you know where you're going to work, it's not difficult to plan where to live to avoid traffic. Not to mention the breakneck pace we're adding midrise housing next to anything that looks mildly interesting.

If you take their transit and airport requirements seriously, Atlanta and perhaps Miami are top contenders. I'm biased, but the list of requirements looks like a description of a currently undeveloped area of downtown Atlanta that has

There's so much variation that it's difficult to make a comparison. In my experience, it's reasonable for a senior developer in the US but not in SV to make over $130k in a 9-5 with a month's vacation. Compared to that,
