Weed in the US is starting to get this way as well. It’s amazing the amount of actually useful drug information you can get from products sold at weed shops these days. Meanwhile you don’t even get nutritional facts or…
They’re incredibly convenient. It allows smaller groups of people to accomplish more in a shorter amount of time by providing a standardized interface that does a great job of integrating with their existing…
Do you have a source on this? Most I know are impressed by SpaceX despite Elon’s public image.
Like you said I imagine it was less effort. Less effort can be very valuable if you’re still producing something useful. Perhaps you could use a simple transpilation approach yourself if you think that’s a good idea.
> claim that cats (of all animals!) should stay at home at all costs. that's also weird. But these are mostly internet people, I've never found one in real life... I’m one of these people. I swear I’m not just an…
You seem like you very much actually know what you’re talking about. Do you have any recommendations for books for laypeople for understanding modern agriculture?
Do you find yourself refusing to read articles or papers unless you’re first 100% sure that everything stated in them is absolutely true? Having to approach something with a certain amount of skepticism is not something…
Interesting! Sorry if this is getting off topic, but how does the Catholic Church feel about using sex as a method for developing closeness and intimacy with a partner, rather than as purely an avenue for pleasure? I…
Most people are not able to install a heat pump themselves. I consider myself a fairly technical DIY sort of person but was not comfortable installing it myself. Installation is going to be the majority of the cost for…
That's an imperfect solution for a problem that didn't need to exist in the first place that might even produce its own list of problems.
I have to agree with this comment. More often than not one-liner rewrites of even trivial functions are unreadable and can't easily be modified, all for the sake of having the appearance of elegance. It's more important…

You're right, this article is missing the bigger picture, but I don't think that was ever its target. It's simple, accessible, and piques peoples interest into something much bigger. I don't see it as an attempt to…

"Electric cars aren't green" is a myth spread by a few op-ed pieces written in the LA Times and WSJ. The production of a battery is a tiny constant in comparison to the lifelong use of fossil fuels. Electric vehicles…
If Microsoft markets Windows as a mobile platform I'll compare it to the existing competition. Sure, it might not be fair, but ultimately I'm looking for results, not fairness.
I've always been curious, what makes Excel better?
Aside from the bookmarklet, I love it. Without an extension, though, I don't see myself using it. Hopefully we'll see one soon.
It seems that the 'bigger is badder' mentality has snuck its way into this discussion as well. The Humble Bundle allows its customers to donate every penny they spend and promotes up and coming artists. Why would its…
