Everyone's opinions are different and we all read for different reasons, but just because an article isn't a strictly factual, question->answer piece doesn't mean it's poorly written. As the article makes clear the…
As the article says, this is a much bigger problem than just Miami. > Globally, it’s estimated that a hundred million people live within three feet of mean high tide and another hundred million or so live within six…

The City Dark is a pleasant documentary about the loss of our night skies and what it means for us and other animals. Great soundtrack. http://www.thecitydark.com/ Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1fTkF8PIu0
I haven't tried this but you might get something out of creating a reddit multi (maybe r/worldnews, r/news, r/science, r/foodforthought, and whatever else), check it once a week and sort by top and "this month" or "this…
This is why I have been using SUIT-like components and utilities in my recent projects. https://github.com/suitcss/suit
One critique of your site design, I don't know if it's just me, but infinite scrolling can be frustrating. I was trying to get to the "About" section in the footer but it kept running away from me.…
I don't know how many tech related job listings they have, but you could look at http://www.idealist.org/. This is their mission statement: "Idealist connects people, organizations, and resources to help build a world…
I was going to say this. A good book on the policies that helped kill unions and weaken the middle class is Who Stole the American Dream by Hedrick Smith. http://www.amazon.com/Stole-American-Dream-Hedrick-Smith-ebo...
This article sounds like it's talking about a form of cooperative, without calling it a cooperative, which isn't a new idea, but certainly is one that is starting to become more mainstream. For example, the UN named…
Typo on homepage: "Contribute tracks to other people's songs. Open up your songs for other people's contributions. Clone/version/remix existing songs."
Turn them into .svg, then load them all into http://icomoon.io/app/, and release it as an icon font set.
Completely agree. I couldn't make sense of the gradient deal, but open up the inspector, set the body font size to 16px and the paragraph line height to 150% and it all becomes a lot clearer.
40 year vision: I have in my pocket a wad of clay. I flatten it into a pancake and its face lights up with the book I was reading on the subway. Roll it into a ball, thin it out, maybe a special twist and it forms…
I'd give $100 to the kickstarter that has a meshnet node in a box that's basically plug and play.
For just some interesting historical context, around the turn of the last century, new middle class in America were very against tipping in restaurants, viewing it as un-democratic and un-American. > Anti-tipping…
I don't see anything about it in the docs, is there color formatting for polygons, so you could do choropleth maps?
http://community-wealth.org/strategies/panel/coops/index.htm... According to this site there were 724 purchasing co-ops in the US in 2009. Those would be stores like REI or food co-ops where the consumer is part-owner.…
I don't know where to ask this, but does anyone know why they bothered with the front trunk? Was it just to keep the Model S looking like a typical car, so people would be less averse to considering it? Crumple zone for…
Do you thinking providing funding to individual kids is more successful than creating a pool for everyone? I'd feel bad for the one student that for whatever reason happens to be overlooked by the internet, while their…
Seconded. I think this TED talk does a good job correlating income inequality to a lot of disagreeable outcomes. http://www.ted.com/talks/richard_wilkinson.html
This is the thing I've never understood. Building a house that doesn't need to spend as much energy(money) heating and cooling is a better house. Just the same as a toilet that uses less water to flush is a better…
