>If I'm spending multiple hours a day every day using something Yikes.

It's rational to demand an apology or explanation for a vote held six years ago that actually passed? Are you going to collect apologies from the other seven million voters as well…

That's a bit too broad. Someone holds a screwdriver incorrectly when screwing in a screw. The screw is slightly crooked because of the improper technique. Is the screwdriver fundam…

After a support session I usually end with "Let me know if you run into any issues." I do frequently wonder if that's the best way to end the email... as what I want to suggest is …

Badia adds it as well. I'm not just referring to here in the US though. I have a copy of Nitza Villapol's La Cocina Criolla, and almost every recipe calls for MSG.

Cubans consume a ton of MSG (sazón) and live notoriously long lives despite very poor living conditions. Your last sentence is very troubling: You feel the negative effects when ea…

I realize you're probably playing devil's advocate, but there are more issues with the original statement anyway. He implied this was new. Rabies has always been a 100% mortality r…

Crystal clear is a bit of an overstatement for the water in South Florida. Did you know Miami Beach closes for a day or two every year because the level of fecal matter in the wate…

Big difference between Miami and the Keys is you probably have to evacuate every time there's a hurricane warning. Besides I always thought of the Overseas Highway through all of t…

The drivers are an interesting point. People in Miami drive way too aggressively. In Texas, I found the opposite in Austin. People here are passive to the point where it's dangerou…

It's funny that you mention the food being a vegetarian... the food is way more awesome with meat in Miami :) Cubans are known for their pork, beef, and seafood. The 3$ meals you c…

This is less a "women in tech" issue than it is a standard bullying issue. You think the "go back to the kitchen" comment is limited to just programming class? So this mom never br…

It's a pun... cooler heads prevailing doesn't mean peoples' heads are actually cooling down. The title was a play on words about the upset about global warming dying down.

I don't spend $261 in fuel every month. Actually, closer to $70. A friend of mine makes a road trip every week for business. Do they also add the cost of the time you spend waiting…

I'm no expert on image manipulation. The only project I've ever done involving it was an ASCII Art converter. So it's possible I have no idea what I'm talking about... That being s…

I used to hear this argument from WoW players a lot. "It's skills you use in every business management, so it's just like work!" Go ahead and list it on your resume if you believe …

I don't know... Shooting hackers may actually be easier than getting people to pick and remember more complex passwords. In all seriousness though, security is not that simple. Yea…

If someone sneaks a bomb into your luggage and it goes off at the airport, didn't they just hijack your body to commit a crime?

Inconclusive either way is different from 'shown drinking isn't a problem'. So technically, he's right, even if a little too aggressive about it.

I haven't been doing this for very long, but so far I've found every client who wants software built either: a) Doesn't know exactly what they want. b) Doesn't know what data is av…

>> "I feel like the six million dollar man. My physique has noticeably improved, my skin is clearer, my teeth whiter, my hair thicker and my dandruff gone. My resting heart rate is…

...didn't he have a Bachelor's in Physics? Either way, he didn't build/design the rocket himself. There was an enormous team.

Elon Musk designed the rocket? All by himself? Wow! What a renaissance man. I figured he had physicists, engineers, mathematicians, biologists, chemists, and you name it. But I gue…
