    It's a matter of degree then. Saying "doing work to change pronouns isn't worth it to me" is one thing - you may find the benefits of that too trivial to be worth your time. Reject…

    Excellent! I'm excited about mixed media articles getting better and better! One small tweak I would make is to have the video start playing not when it's in the middle but closer …

    This is the exact way in which metadata, in the age of computer analysis, is just as important as the data itself. With a computer looking for patterns, it's possible to sift throu…

    This will find its biggest market (I think) in NYC apartments - you only need 1 usually, and tiny unventilated kitchens are a near guarantee to send off an alarm. I lived in an apa…

    Same - been on the fence about the biolite because it's only paying for the weight if you're 100% wood based on your trip. This kind of makes that decision easy I think. The design…

    I tend to only buy cheap games (or heavily discounted games) on Steam, partially because of their DRM. A game on Steam isn't bought, it's more of an indefinite lease. If Steam as a…
