They don't mention it here, but I think they might on a different post? Rivers are going to show up more in a monospace font (which your link points out), so that would make sense.…

I've always been annoyed by the way html treats whitespace. Having more space between sentences is so much more readable.

The main use of computers in school should be teaching typing, word processing (and it probably should be with Word), number crunching and mathematics, and perhaps a little bit of …

Honestly, for adults too, pen and paper is often a better solution. Word processing and number crunching are the main use cases for a computer and I think kids should learn these t…

Some people are scared of fat (or the associated calories). From the blogs/ads about the creami, it seems that's the main reason people have.

I'm pretty sure there's more than mood going on here. Why is there not a "soda effect"?

Haha, I can explain (2): they are a nutrition scientist! In all seriousness, they precede that quote by saying: "it’s got fat, it’s got protein, it’s got vitamins." So I think it's…
