What about men's testicular/prostate health though? Bike seats are specially designed for cycling ergonomics; desk chairs are design for sitting upright in an ergonomic _stationary_ position. I say this because I had…
Clever idea and implementation! I think from a health standpoint, though, this is a false positive and it is probably better to go for an old fashioned _walk_; or to drop to the floor and do some yoga. For instance,…
I'm surprised there is a distinction between the two at this point. What we have are "user interfaces" and both are graphical, whether it's interacting with text or graphics. I think the main issues of usability are…
Software today is a complicated mess. On the consumer side, peoples minds are so fickle and they want the latest shiny object or app; on the software side, companies are constantly inventing new ways to do the same old…
I think this is common across all technological phases: wild west implementations preceeds standardization.
This is a mis-understanding of the OP. The internet is inherently a very __useful__ tool. The problem is that social-media companies have turned the need for social interaction into a crack-like addiction (by design)…
MS Office is a great example of this because they squeeze money out of folks when it seems the features added are minimal. The only interesting aspect is cloud-collaboration, but that could be P2P instead. I'm willing…
Absolutely—but they didn't factory farm and the herds of animals were healthy and in their natural habitat. The grand scope of agricultural waste is pretty disgusting. Just look at North Carolina:…
So for every thing we "gain" here, what do we lose? Seems like we could forego frivolous products to save the planet, no?
Not very hard actually—those who eat lots of meat and dairy have plenty of health issues. A change brought to you in part by natural selection. EDIT: For the downvoters: https://nutritionstudies.org/the-china-study/…
This is why I think the proper crypto currencies are backed by another functional use instead of "just coins." (e.g. Ethereum vs. Bitcoin)—one is a useful Turing-complete machine; the other only exists to send coins.…
I second this: it's because C is a simple language. Modern languages are a cluster-f*k of features and there are still opportunities to code in security holes. Frankly, if you were to boil down the "unsafe" C…
Honestly, just let them have a buffer-overflow. That's what we call "junk food" software and if they are negligent, let them fail.
I think it's the convenience for both buyers and sellers. If readers want the book "now" they get the kindle version; if they want it later they get the physical copy. However, Kindle in general is a dark pattern: it…
If you do, please be sure to donate (time or money) to the open source projects to help better them! This is how open source can exceed commercial software. At the very worst case, if the projects tumble there's always…
Honestly, AMP shouldn't even be required. Bandwidth speeds are way up from before. We have a bloated ecosystem where ads come first and content second. They are putting a draconian bandaid on the problem. What we need…
