This about sums it up for me: "Nor does United seem better for its employees, who used to own the airline, but are now stuck enforcing cruel and arbitrary rules, and assessing the …

The bar for basic service has dropped so far that you are no longer treated like a person if you don't pay for the extras. My wife and I saved up for a resort trip for our ten year…

Agreed. I think there's a way to add in a few features like this and still make it simple and user-friendly. One request when you do MPAA ratings is to not make it a slider bar, bu…

I was only referencing the parent post about the 200 buttons, it's certainly true that they're available in ribbon form. If the commands are things that were previously available a…

What do you mean when you say "is it risky"? * You risk that you won't be able to find developers at a salary that will help your company earn money * There is a risk that you may …

If I took all that time to customize my command ribbon, I'd certainly want it to look the same across every computer I use. Will there be a way to synchronize my preferences for se…

It definitely seems like a jump. Did they interview users? If so, why not reference that data? If not, why not? And what user data prompted them to create 203 buttons if some of th…

Personally, I can't stand Finder. I used a Mac for several years every day before I felt like I really figured it out, and even then I didn't feel like it was user-friendly - it ju…

I thought it was great that they discussed what user's actually do within Windows Explorer before they decided what to change with it. Too often I feel like changes are forced for …

Awesome that you guys are still following along here. I don't see a back button anywhere, but maybe with 2 you were referring to the ability to copy a link, which works great. It s…

A few things: 1) I just tried a query (weezer "buddy holly") that had worked a couple of days ago but didn't now (it didn't work with quotes, either). 2) I miss the back button and…

I don't have any Macs at my house, so I hadn't experienced Plex before a few weeks ago when I installed the media server on my Windows Box to serve to our Roku. It was already the …

In regards to equating being overweight and being irresponsible, I think you're right. I just had never seen it that way, and hopefully this can start a paradigm shift for me. What…

"But the real reason [married people gain weight] is moral hazard, or the tendency to take more risks and behave more irresponsibly when there are no consequences." I'd never equat…

It's tough. I certainly haven't mastered this, but it takes a reputation of delivering outstanding products, which often comes from passionate developers. Feeding that passion is k…

I liked Kurzweil's response best: "As long as AI has any flaws or limitations, people will jump on these. By the time that the set of these limitations is nil, AI will have long si…

The writers had no knowledge of which clues would be used for the Watson episodes; they only mention that they don't use audio or video clues. I certainly haven't done any analysis…

I'm sure that's true for a lot of people, but I think there were probably a lot of people who thought of it as "try before you buy". This mentality certainly applies to some percen…

Another key to remember is that there is time after the button press to think of the answer - it's a common strategy to ring in when you have a certain confidence level that you ca…

I can definitely follow along with this or any game of Jeopardy!, but my problem is that I just don't know all the answers. To me this is part of the appeal. This is definitely fas…

Starting young is great. You're hinting at one of the other keys that has helped me, which is to make it automatic. This is often more important than the vehicle you choose for inv…

I think the point here isn't just that the CEO was performing a mundane task, but that he was doing work that had to get done, even though it wasn't a desirable task. There was a g…

I think they left a few things out, like playing back local media. This appears to be built on android, though, so maybe that means that functionality like this can be enabled late…
