Some easy answers: 1. Not all articles will be relatable to everyone, and that's perfectly fine. 2. Your "what if" scenario is trivially surmountable: write some code at home, for …

Similar story for me! Back when I had feet, there were so many days where I had anxiety over forgetting to tie my shoes. Sometimes I would start the day with my shoes untied. Other…

If the product has to TELL you up front that it has a "beautiful and intuitive user interface", it likely doesn't. And the Tour page has a screenshot of the application titled "Stu…

That's the point. Adding the LED does very little to help the user understand the state. In the end, you'll just push the button anyway to make sure.

What, exactly, are you talking about? The OP is referencing the fact that the wife got _everything_ in the divorce. I'd be curious to understand why "facilitat[ing] his success in …

This kind of over dramatizing is tiresome. "Demonic chords" (what's a demonic chord, anyway? Are bees buzzing in a tritone? Are bee hives playing chords?), talking about it soundin…

So what? These people will no longer be your run of the mill "runner". They will be augmented, much the way we're augmented by using bicycles and skis, etc. The original claim that…

This is exactly the behavior I would expect from someone with a psych PhD.

Seems like this idea is well within the capability of one person to run and moderate it for free / fun in their spare time.

That's a shame you find less than 3% of it interesting. Have you tried this website called reddit.com? It's just chock full of interesting things and rational discussions. You'll l…
