Wrong again, Xanax is prescribed for years at a time. Many people go decades taking a few mg of Xanax a day.

Guess I was misktaken. I had the choice between a thinkpad and MacBook and given an iPhone, didn’t realize we could get an android or just didn’t pay attention...

I had to use the BART the other day. The choices were $2.50 in cash or use a card where the minimum was $20 to fill a pass. I choose cash since I’m not from the Bay Area. I don’t k…

This is true for alcohol but I'm not sure about cannabis. In California, a heavy indica is a recommended by doctors for sleep. My understanding is that it only affects R.E.M. sleee…

Counterpoint. I've had three thinkpads over the past 5 years for work. For two years I used Linux and am currently using windows 10. Just bought my first Mac Pro in December. It is…

What exactly is the phenomenal technology? Most people on HN understand the Blockchain can be described as a p2p distributed database. It has great use cases, like asset registries…

Seattle? But I don't think every city needs Manhattan style density. Four, five story mid-rise density is the answer. Austin's urban core is building heavily in that style. I was j…

Please read Ghost Wars by Steve Coll or read up on the various Latin American dictators the CIA supported. The US may not be the 'worst' but we certainly have our hands bloodier th…

This is also a well known contributor. Remember when Google and Apple were caught (and maybe fined?) for suppressing wages a few years ago?

Uhmm... maybe you're not there yet but we had a civil war a hundred years after the revolutionary war :).

I think it's important to note that the majority of these protests are happening in large urban cities on the coasts that overwhelming did not vote for Trump. There are no large pr…

This is a proposed bill by California democrat Zoe Lofgren. Thankfully it has zero chance of passing.
