I'm curious about the tagline "Ideal for resumes or team sites". Why is this ideal for these use cases, and how would it be implemented, and what is the benefit?

That's actually pretty clever. Credit where it's due.

Nothing really poignant to say about this, other than thanks OP for posting something positive to read today.

It sounds like your job sucks more than your field. And I'm not saying that to discredit your point of view. I know. I've been there. My last job was pretty bad and it left me wond…

Thank you (and all other respondents) for clarifying that. The website doesn't do a great job of explaining it.

So this is a third party application (or one of several) I can download and install to make editing a text file sitting on my desktop easier and more accessible? Easier and more ac…

I don't get it. I mean, I understand what I'm looking at; a word cloud of music genres that is each linked to a sample. That part I got. But when you label your website 'Every Nois…

Pardon a nitpick moment. "Boeing’s control software ... was called DICE, or Decision Mission-Control Software." Okay, well, I see where the D and the C in the acronym comes from, b…

Seconded. I've complained before about websites that try to get too magazine with their articles and how it ruins the narrative. But this? This is done really, really well.

"I Opted Out of Facial Recognition at the Airport – It Wasn't Easy" "I had to ... speak with a Delta representative at their information desk ... then request a passport scan when …

I agree on at least the first half of your statement. Although I'm not sure I'd say 'delusional' as much as - I don't know? - Jingoistic? Bombastic? I feel like I should be playing…

And I can corroborate.

A while back someone posted a comment on another story about travel and tourism - I forget who - basically saying that travel is the ultimate extension of selfishness and narcissis…

Aside: Shout out to the telemarketer who pressured me to get a land line years ago because they're the only guaranteed access to emergency numbers and "never go down."

Thanks for that warning. It's appreciated. I had to take a break in the middle of the article before continuing.

“I think Facebook needs to shut down." As I've spent the last few years pissing away absurd amounts of time on the platform, gotten in countless fruitless arguments, and seen the t…

A big reason I still love my 12 year old car (a Mazda, by chance) is that it doesn't have a touch screen. I've borrowed a number of cars over the years that have touch screens and …

> ...the way police works/seems to work in the US ... is the exception. Nope. I can't agree with this, as much as I wish I could. It's an easy fallacy to think the U.S. is the exce…

Agreed, but even then, I'd argue that particular parody of nerd culture has already long since been normalized. Maybe all BBT did was broaden it a little bit, but a parody it remai…

Why stop at cars? How about: [Device] owners should control data collected by [the device]

My 12 year old car (perhaps obviously) doesn't have a touch screen, and every time I drive a card that does have on, I find it to be either a complete distraction and/or a UI failu…

I'm fine with that. Sooner the better.

Facebook will not change until there is sufficient external pressure - be that an authority, competition, etc. - to force it to change. End of. We've seen the same story for the la…

Yep. I see this shared on FB every few months with the usual take of "LOL, WhAt aRE tHesE KiDS dOiNG?" Well, they're being active in a social environment, and having fun. And I can…

So... it's a re-post of an earlier article, updated to reflect the difference in time. Is that what I'm supposed to make of it?
