He's also dead, so it's not like he is personally benefitting from our enjoyment of his music anyway.

In regards to your edit, avocados and chili peppers both originate in Mexico. Guacamole was a native dish so it's been around for centuries, but the modern version with onions and …

This is something I struggle with, as someone who worked really hard in school but has become less productive as a professional. In school there are well-defined deadlines and disc…

What makes you think hiring managers will suddenly prioritize "quirky sexy hipsters" if those traits aren't desirable for the role? You seem to be assuming users on the hiring side…

Yes, the Unabomber was a mathematician-gone-terrorist who had a manifesto of sorts published decrying industrialization and technological profress. His academic career was pretty s…

Yup it's basically reddit for the alt-right and banned subs... not exactly the place most people want to be

The request was for a reddit alternative, not an alt-right reddit

Agreed. It might bring some marginal convenience but overall feels like a gimmick. I'd rather just have a normal keyboard with an Esc key.

Same. As much as I would like to move off Facebook, my friends are worth more to me than that. I could still communicate with them if I didn't have it, but it would take much more …

Definitely. People are reluctant to buy $1 or $2 mobile apps that would be really useful, even though they would never notice the money was gone. Just because most apps are free. A…

People make group chats in FB messenger. If you don't have messenger, you don't get to be in the group chat.

The article also mentions the pedestrian as "a woman walking", so it's not clear whether they are referring to a cyclist as a pedestrian, or whether they are getting different info…

The video says bicyclist and shows a bicycle, while the written article says pedestrian and said the car hit "a woman walking"... I'm confused as to why there is a contradiction, b…

It's moreso that the inverse is true. Not working hard will almost certainly not lead to success (unless your family is rich enough to where you can just "buy" more success). Worki…

How convenient that they forgot to use it on the one action they never want you to perform

Most of this stuff is part of common CS curriculums though. The real answer is just that you have to take linear algebra as a separate class. It's not supposed to be all the math f…

It's even easier when kids live close enough that it's a one minute walk down the street. There are pros and cons to living in the suburbs but it's great for kids to be able to pla…

It's a shared responsibility. The NFL has devoted a lot of effort to hiding the reality of what the audience is watching. Now that we know fully how dangerous it is, it's our respo…

It won't change quickly enough, people will simply stop playing it, and eventually stop watching it as well. I've already stopped watching NFL football (mostly, it's hard to comple…

Football players purposely spear other players with their helmets with full force. They had to make rules against doing this, and it still happens, although with less frequency. Th…

Agreed. In my anecdotal experience, imprecise language and simple logical mistakes made in conversation is a pretty frequent source of miscommunication and minor interpersonal conf…

Facebook isn't new anymore so it's not cool to like it. I also find it vastly more useful than other social media sites.

That's my experience. I use it to keep in touch with friends and family, and to keep on top of events being held in my community and by my friends. I'm not sure what I would do wit…

Correct, the CNN classifier is definitely supervised learning.
