And you should avoid dangling prepositions. You should avoid dangling prepositions if you are speaking in Latin. Then again if you are speaking Latin, ALL dangling prepositions wil…

The link is actually "geeks with an agenda", which is a decent description of an Aspie looking for UFOs.

Well due-diligence seems to have been an issue in individual cases. But overall they seem to have missed two fundamental problems. 1. Manufacturing parts and then selling them thro…

one doesn't spend the kind of effort they've spent without a goal. Never credit to malice what can be explained by incompetence. I personally believe that pretty much all democrati…

The fact that you will die is positive/beautiful?

Life expectancy was only 35 because of infant mortality. Once you grew up, people tended to live almost as long as we do today. And medical care is not by any means new. Cesarean s…

Sense? Your post makes none.

Louis CK is hilarious, but this guy is not an asshole. Dying, aging, being sick, drinking, eating and breathing pollution are not trivial problems. We ought to demand solutions for…

As amazing as many of this we have are, we should never lose the hunger to solve any of the 25 listed reasons. They are real and they are serious.

The rub for women in computer science is that the dominant computer science culture does not venerate balance or multiple interests. Instead, the singular and obsessive interest in…

You don't need to. By ignoring or laughing at their juvenile antics, and by not engaging them as adults, you win. I have to disagree. You would win if your position was not absurd.…

Sometimes during the initial phase of building a product YOU realize you're on the wrong road and it's actually faster to toss out what you've got and start over. But what if it is…

I love the fact that they are trying to make it cheap, it does not have to be perfect if it's cheap. Even if it looks as bad and is small as princes Lea's hologram, if it's cheap e…

This is genius! But accidentally genius! The author starts off well, makes an important point about stock picking never being better then a random walk and then.... picks stocks. P…

Many, many, many years ago only really tough guys had tattoos, almost exclusively sailors and former or current prisoners. Today teenage girls go to the tattoo shop together with t…

Could you live with yourselves if the company made WAY more from your app then they paid you for it? If yes, then sell. I'd just ask for the number that would buy me freedom. And i…

Not to mention it actually costs less to buy a bushel of corn than it does to produce it !... but... but... but that's not a reason to use all that "surplus" cheap corn to make eth…

Its being digested from the inside by the parasite and a bunch of new parasites are about to burst out.
