I think you can get much higher ratios of CBD to THC in this format. This is what people with chronic pain and anxiety are looking for.

She is depicted as a deeply flawed and vindictive character. As a reader, it's easy to hate her and as I was reading it I imagined the author must have hated her too. But there are…

Completely agree, and I was a bit disappointed that the interviewer didn't take the opportunity to ask the author's wife her opinions on the way the wife is depicted in that book. …

Berkeley is tackling this issue with a “back on the street by the end of the day” approach to prosecuting laptop thefts. They also have a game cafe where you pay $5 an hour to sit …

I assume you mean Sid Vicious rather than Johnny Rotten, a smart and articulate guy whose other band, Public Image Ltd deserves plenty of acclaim regardless of whether or not they …

The school I attended was founded in 1206. I don't think training factory workers was a top priority back then.

Having put in their time at UCSF, this person has most likely already made a decent contribution to the field, at the very least enabling their PI to continue their work. And who k…

Berkeley recently made it easier to build accessory dwelling units on a residential lot http://www.berkeleyside.com/2017/03/20/new-laws-make-even-ea... . I think people are pricing…

I was just explaining Knightmare to an American the other day - I assume this was only aired in the UK. If they recreated that show as a VR app that might finally get me to buy the…

Although you don't seem to like the president, you have made a lot of the same points as he did in his campaign. Maybe he will fix these issues and make America great again.

From the article: "Heading north from Fremont is basically sadness. Hayward, Oakland, San Leandro, Richmond, Vallejo. They’re all poverty stricken and broken. The only green zones …

I do think these are reasonable questions, and allowing the candidate to use their own laptop sounds very fair. One thought though, not necessarily for the poster but for anyone wh…

This reminds me of one of the very best pieces of television I ever saw: BBC's Horizon documentary about The Mystery of the Persian Mummy: http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/horizon/2001…

Now I'm imagining the children of the 16th century living in fear of... the Puckle!

I agree. I got a few items into the list and got the sense that a joke was being played. I wonder if the original poster had that sense too and was in on the joke?

You mention setting up a Phoenix app in Docker so I'll link to a couple of posts I wrote describing how I do that: https://dev.bleacherreport.com/starting-a-phoenix-project-wi... ,…

Or "Did you see that ludicrous display last night?"

Firing is actually more important than hiring. To understand why, consider this simple chart I made up: as you see it is literally impossible to get any work done at all with 100 p…

My daughter practically couldn't be in the car before we put some videos on an iPad for her, I definitely second this as a good investment. We just went with a handful of favourite…

There's a pretty big difference between getting a $35 Chromecast vs even last generation's console. Other than the cost, I also feel that now that I'm a parent, my consoles are jus…

This is definitely why I prefer the Chromecast experience over loading Hulu through the PS3 (which is actually also pretty good, given that Daniel Tiger is always on the front page…

Roku currently has Amazon, Google Play, and Netflix. I would definitely not pay for a new device on the promise that providers will continue to support it.

I totally missed that. I must have blacked out from my rage. Thank you for your clarity!

I'm sure everyone will enjoy explaining to their toddlers why they can't watch Daniel Tiger anymore. We actually have Amazon Prime, but I had been streaming Daniel Tiger to the tel…

I don't think the results in SF would be that interesting - everyone is working on their app! I have a metric now for interactions with strangers in San Francisco: Time to App. It'…
