The author themselves said this was their first time writing long form. I chalk most of your complaints up to this and the fact that english is his second language.

What would you use all of the extra rooms for? One room for each person to sleep, a laundry room, a couple bathrooms, and a great room with living, dining, and kitchen is all you e…

I find it's best to look at laws like this as social trends. Look at the way that same sex marriage or legal marijuana spreads through the united states. One or two progressive sta…

It's just standing for 37 minutes. I suppose you engage your core a bit here and there, but it really isn't an exercise like biking would be. I love these scooters BTW, super conve…

I'd actually be down with this, but only if facebook gave user's the ability to lock their own data down at fair market price. That way the user pays for a product, or decides to b…

This is a case where an Artist has confused themselves with a designer. Designers solve problems, often by using existing conventions to help an interface/tool/object/room be insta…

Choosing to enforce a speeding law is still subjective though, so this wouldn't change much. We speed all over California, police choose to go after the most dangerous (or least co…

it might be more accurate to describe suffering as an optional subconscious process. You suffer by default, but you can choose to not suffer with the right amount of mindfulness. A…

They might not have the ability to ignore things quite as well as a human can, but the same concept applies. Many dogs will ignore their own pain to help another in need. Not indul…

Is anyone working on an app that can do this? There were those parking ticket negotiating apps for a bit. I wonder if there is a way to systemize the negotiation process here. I be…

I love this kid! We need more like him, who are willing to put their ideas into action :)

Weaver birds, beavers, bees, ants, termites, etc... Hell, we could even call shelled animals like snails and turtles mobile buildings :P

I really want this in an arcade cabinet for a streetfighter-esque game, or side scroller!

Design is how something works. Glass rectangles are currently the best solution for mobile computing. This is how design works, Someone innovates, the industry copies the design, m…

There are a bunch of accounts of marijuana working for pain. Try something high in CBD, ideally an indica.

I depend on it for the pain, but it isn't addicting. No cravings or anything like that.

Marijuana is a great alternative to opioids for pain management. I got a couple long term injuries in college (permanently broken L5 vertebrae, a shoulder that continually dislocat…

There is definitely an argument made. It might not be in the form that you're looking for, but the argument is there. The graph clearly points to a high correlation between the ind…

XKCD has a long history of citing their work, why can't an effective argument be made with visuals? I don't understand why the medium of the argument matters here.

I think what you're missing here is that climate change activists aren't concerned with "saving the earth" they are REALLY concerned with saving humanity and the current set of flo…

If you can't tell if your AI friend is real, are they not a real friend? They might not be human, but they will still be your friend, no?

I love this. Both for it's tongue and cheek attitude, and for it's not unlikely depiction of the future.

I think that was the point. Capital punishment shouldn't exist (and doesn't in most first world countries).
