A lot of people focus on how this information is used by advertisers, which can be a problem, but in my opinion the bigger issue is how data brokers are starting to act like completely unregulated and sometimes highly…
This happens occasionally at my work, and I'm pretty sure it is always accidental - but it is because we get food delivered every day, and a combination of food not being very well labeled, orders getting messed up, and…
IIRC, this was just one engineer's side project to take their existing container tech, which might be too 'advanced' for most users, and make a one-off addon that more users might be interested in. Do you think that…
I'm in the middle of reading a pretty interesting book, where that is one of the core arguments - Weapons of Math Destruction, by Cathy O'Neil - I recommend checking it out if you are curious to learn more about the…
Previously you could only write code for the Unreal Engine with C++ or the visual scripting system, Blueprints. This allows people to use C# for everything that they would normally need C++ to add to their games - which…
I've opened up the calculator a couple of times and gotten a prompt to rate/review it on the Windows Store... What is the purpose of doing that with built-in apps? It's just annoying.
I don't like any of the flavored versions... Cacao was way too sweet, Nectar tasted like drinking a bottle of Windex, and while I actually kinda liked the Coffeist version, it tasted more like chocolate than coffee to…
How many 'virtual' cards can a user have?
For me, it still mostly comes down to usability. A big part of it is probably that I just have more experience with Photoshop, and if I really forced myself to use The GIMP more, it might grow on me... But when I am…
Who in the world wants these so badly? I'm excited to get one... but it's not like I'm in a huge rush to play 30 year old games... If I really wanted to play them right now, I could download an emulator.
Right now, I think the 'Trump Era' in this context is simply referring to this time in which assholes and bigots appear to feel emboldened by the perception that over 50% of America agrees with their hateful views.…
It doesn't appear to be hooked up to a public database of hatecrimes, or anything like that (I don't imagine that exists). It seems to be 100% user reported, with no real proof required... just an optional link to…
It's not a subject that I have done a ton of reading on, but from the many random articles that I have read over the years, it really seems like the bulk of nutritional science is still pretty much trial and error...…
$2.69 per 400 kcal. bottle
I hope that's the case... It would make sense, since this doesn't appear to be an action Apple has taken on a regular basis.
That was my first thought as well... Even if in this case it was actually Dash putting up fake reviews, this seems like a slightly dangerous precedent to set. It would be a big risk, but one could potentially buy 'false…
Basically, you just put a 'stamp' on a piece of digital paper, which shows what city you are in - then you 'fold' the paper into an airplane and make a little 'throwing' motion with your phone, being careful not to let…
I suspect not... The first plane I threw pretty softy, because I wasn't sure how much force was necessary, and in a couple minutes it traveled from Washington State to Serbia.
Yeah, it took a good 4-5 minutes for it to start doing anything on my phone... Would be nice if there was some fallback for when it's loading, so I'm not just staring at a 'blank' screen, wondering if anything is…
Maybe it's just because the site is getting hammered, but whether I view it on my phone or computer, I just see a cool visualization of paper planes flying around the world, but I see no way to interact with it at…
I think the argument against the term 'autopilot' is less about the technical accuracy, and more about the implication and assumptions of the layman. To most people, 'autopilot' suggest that they can be totally…
explorer.exe? /devils advocate
The closest that I have come across would probably be MealSquares - which still contain a good deal of animal products (milk, eggs) - but they seem to be going for a similar goal as Soylent, but making a 'solid' final…
