Weird, how does that even work? Does cracked mean its' been decompiled? It's strange because it includes other stuff like build scripts, etc that wouldn't be in released binaries..…

You should check out Gabor Mate (there are many good interviews on youtube) to understand the nature of addicting, especially as it pertains to things beyond drugs and alcohol. The…

Simple, direct, democratic. $1000 is a good amount - for those in need it can be stretched to go a long way (just imagine the status quo alternative). For those who are more comfor…

Amazon literally siphons off the data and has invested so little in its users. Any recommendations for an alternative?

Apple has an opportunity to stand separate as a leader in user privacy first. But to do so means constantly standing up to government(s).

Everyone in the comments crying "I'd never buy a car without a test drive first" as though you need dealerships to offer a chance to drive their cars. Why not order a test drive ex…

IMHO: Sublime was once leading the way as a light weight, easily customizable editor. Since then, a slow release cycle and various compelling alternatives like Atom and VS Code, ha…

This is beautiful and amazing. I love how each step builds on the previous, and uses pop examples to explain theory concepts. I've often wondered so many of the things presented in…

This is a great review! He's so enthusiastic and appreciates so much about the game. Cool :)

Thanks for that. Any other NK-related films you recommend that go beyond surface shock value (e.g. Vice documentaries) or ignorant comedy (The Interview)?

HR's primary mission is to protect the company from its employees.
