    Good idea to avoid amazon. Did you try unsubscribing from all their newsletters?

    The "study" is based on 20 test subjects. Doesn't seem right to publish a paper based on such low numbers, especially when, as here, the experiment seems to be pretty cheap. Direct…

    I guess that covers posting articles from the economist too?

    Doesn't look too pretty, ugly in parts. Something strange about it. The ARN business looks very suspicious. Maybe this is supposed to be pre-alpha? Consistent with the Tim Bray blo…

    Ironic. I don't think Slack is particularly well designed. Use it every day. And it's always unpleasant. Why does it say "New mentions" when I wasn't actually mentioned, just someo…
