> In the long run, yes, maybe things will be net better for all, when the $45M per year has had a chance to make alternative transportation methods to be not just policy enforced, …

Relevant to the first book, but last year and this year have been awesome for women's achievement in ultrarunning: - Last year Courtney Dauwalter won the three most iconic trail ul…

Right, I think it's helpful to define the most probable types of emergencies where having a non-electronic form of payment is useful. In the US that's likely some sort of natural d…

I've spent the majority of the past decade in Nashville, first for university and the past four years working in tech here after a short stint in California. In that time, the tech…

Not the GP author, but I've been in Nashville for about 8 years total (with a couple year gap in the middle). It's got a lot to offer, but it's become such a 'hot' city for people …

To elaborate on this, Nashville seized all Bird scooters until regulations could be put in place [1]. This is after two women were seriously injured downtown while riding the scoot…

For what it's worth, I think attributing it to white flight is a little misleading. Davidson County is certainly more diverse than the other counties in the metro region, but most …

I'm in Nashville as well, and was just talking about this yesterday with people. The past couple of years has seemed to be almost entirely luxury apartment complexes being built, a…

I haven't seen anyone specifically comment on Nashville so I figure I'll chime in and give you my $.02. I did my undergrad at Vanderbilt in Nashville, moved to Mountain View for tw…

I grew up in Buffalo and I would not recommend this for a lot of reasons. There are plenty of other cities with affordable housing (including lower property taxes) and much more pl…

Although this is the first time something like this has been found in competition, I can remember a few prior allegations or instances that many people have found suspicious. So I …

This is something that is definitely overlooked in these discussions. I'm in the US, not living in SF or NYC but in a city growing fairly rapidly and closing on a house in a few we…

I'd definitely suggest listening to this freakonomics podcast: http://freakonomics.com/2013/09/26/would-a-big-bucket-of-cas... You could also make a similar point as the podcast by…

I agree with this. I really like having a desktop client in addition to a web client. Seems silly, but makes a big difference for me.

Will this use dropbox sync for syncing with an iPhone?

I find they're actually quite good gifts for smaller or more casual situations - as a thank you for someone who did you a favor, or when you don't know someone all that well. Or ev…

I add my vote for 1Password. Just started using it a few days ago but I think it's very well done.

According to this site http://planet--earth.ca/ (Go to Electro-L Images, then Image Gallery) the full image is too expensive to host and he's providing a torrent soon.

Is it just me or does the first mock-up look a lot like Chrome?

Even worse, as the article mentions, is having another set of credentials that you can't ever delete. I don't want hundreds of different websites all with an account for me that I'…

I don't know anything about how heavily you've modified Windows, but I just switched to OS X from Win7 a month ago. This is after only ever using Windows. I was surprised by how ea…

"I'm not sure anyone is arguing the iPhone invented all these individual technologies, and if anyone is claiming that, they shouldn't be as the evidence is overwhelming to the cont…
