    I'm 27 now and I feel the same way. I still think I won't end up with kids with time running short but I'm an uncle to two boys and a friends daughter calls me uncle. I just hope I…

    Try asking you uncles why they say X before you share that diatribe. It'll help to temper your arguments with their perspective of how some particular inspector wouldn't even talk …

    You aren't. I really like it but the disconnect between old style apps and the new style is jarring. The new apps and interface would be great on a tablet but feels clunky on my ol…

    I think there is something there. My 13 year old sister does not want a Facebook. I got her to get a g+ thinking 4 way video chat would be just her thing and she posted for a bit b…

    The two following comments are spammy but the only real issue with jmduke's comment was the form. Had it been: >You could also say: "Personally, I like to understand problems, rath…

    Gupta's defense is the sort of defense that will reach people like my mother convincing them that marijuana is not evil and has real medical uses. That outcome is a good thing and …

    I love this argument. It needs to become a reflexive and memetic response whenever anyone places someone in a damned-if-you-do situation for improving their position.

    I didn't see this. Sorry. I mostly agree with your penultimate paragraph. But in answer to the why people should want to hide their porn habits: it is enough that other people woul…

    > I know what you will say in response though - it is only optional for now right? No! It's de facto censorship. As the game goes the "smart" choice will become agreeing to the cen…

    Don't you mean 'man tar'? The most common usage is right in the intro. I don't use it much but always have to do the same...

    Why didn't you make the circle constant a circle in your manifesto? I'm not sure but it seems the function composition symbol could be safely reused without confusion or perhaps a …

    True, my response was a bit muddled by replying, maybe, too broadly to the question about what we're upset about. I changed the subject and I'm sorry to have made that mistake.

    Because we'd like to meet our family directly at the gate? I like your argument but meeting family at the gate was one of my favorite things as a child. And it won't be enough unle…

    I like this theory a bit but I don't think the part about getting positive publicity works out. They don't really look good here and, though I haven't read Reddit's response yet, I…

    Are you posting this because they used the phrase correctly?

    Is that really the case? I'd heard that the US did not technically recognize dual citizenship but other nations do. So wouldn't you technically be just a US citizen as far as the U…

    Also, the video's become much more enjoyable at 1.25x or 1.5x speed, depending on the speaker.

    'Mindblowing' is nearly always a positive thing. I think your comment really made an impression. I did as he said, lounging here with my laptop, and it really was a nice feeling to…
