Okay yeah you whooshed me. I’ll take the L. I must’ve been too busy reaching for my pitchfork
Irrefutable eh? As someone who has used em dashes in my writing my entire life, these comments drive me crazy! Where exactly do you think that they learned to do that? E.g. 2018:…
This is totally what I’ve been doing all day. I call it “digital puttering”. It’s where much of the beauty and craft of something is developed. It requires a craftsperson to not just “call it done and move on”, but…
Same here! I agree with your description, but my wife and I still absolutely love it. It’s brighter when your eyes have adjusted to the dark for a while too.

My 2 yr old button-obsessed daughter loves this book so much. One of my all time favorite children books. It’s such a creative concept! I believe the guy that put it together is currently crowdfunding for an advanced…
There are many rare species which we do know exist that even trained wildlife biologists struggle to capture on camera. Not saying I think they are still around, but I wouldn’t take the lack of a photo in the smartphone…
Agreed. Almost all of his actions can easily be explained by looking at how it is benefiting old money — coal, mining, oil, sugar, cars, cable, telecom etc. He is just helping last century’s industries hold onto their…
That seems to be a reality of the “Swiss Army Knife for X” products. Tons of features are a blessing and a curse. You should listen to this Masters of Scale episode for an in-depth discussion of how to overcome the…
For me it comes down to inertia. When I'm working on a project, I can barely get myself to stop, but when I do stop, it takes some time to get started again. My trick is: as soon as I finish one project, I open up…
Yes, but this ignores the fact that those patents are transferred to an acquirer upon the sale of your startup. Yes, the patent is largely useless to your startup. However, if you've proven the market, a patent could be…
Exactly. It's the same problem as communication of science to the general public: if you make it 100% accurate, most people either won't understand or won't care. After enough customer interviews you start to get a…
I completely agree. Many of the psychological principles that drove the tulip craze are present in the ICO ecosystem: scarcity, promises of skyrocketing value, a steady flow of new entrants, and early investors using…
It may have been stressful for employees and Gates, but it was a slap on the wrist when compared to the dominant position the company had managed to attain. Most of the power they had gained they kept. Yes, they ended…
I think Apple Mail actually strikes the right balance here. There are icons, but they have text below them by default. If you want a cleaner interface once you are able to easily identify the feature by the icons, you…
I completely agree it's easy to memorize without text. I even lump them into logical groups using the vertical separator favicon from this site: http://separator.mayastudios.com
I'm the same way. I use bookmarks constantly and have all of the tools I use for work displayed with no text so they are all just favicons. I also have folders which contain infrequently used links (pretty much never).
That was my thought exactly, but I was less eager to share. Gold is often found in association with serpentine (I would bet that has something to do with it being California's state rock) and I saw a lot of serpentine…
Same here. But it is in the general status dashboard: http://status.aws.amazon.com/
Same here. I can log in to the new S3 console UI, but all of my buckets/resources are missing. Same error as you in the old UI. Also unable to connect through the AWS CLI (says, "An error occurred (AccessDenied) when…
This is compared to the very evil password strength checker, which gives an ambiguous "password not strong enough" error until it finds a match with another service.
Understood, and that makes a lot of sense. I apologize for the mistake and will do better next time.
The difference is that on the scale of tens or hundreds of thousands of years, wildlife populations have a chance to adapt or relocate. We are causing oil leaks in areas that have been historically relatively pristine,…
That was the initial assessment completed in July of last year, but further environmental study was deemed required: http://bigstory.ap.org/article/87381a7d1abd4817a8991b0c8caea... "An assessment conducted last year…
Cool idea, but you might want to revise your messaging: "I could make one for them but making them by hand is REALLY time consuming." "Handcrafted by Charles Han"
