Drugs can be helpful, but it's important to find a good doctor first. A lot of doctors will just try lots of different meds and see what sticks. When you're dealing with toenail fungus, that's ok, but when it's your brain, the result can be

You could argue that it's morally wrong because most other Mefi-ists assume that the rules are being followed, so breaking the rules is deceptive. But Metafilter discussions bore the hell out of me, so I don't really know what the hell they

Every time I have to deal with the health care system, I feel like I'm going back in time. Doctors that can't even communicate by email. Redundant record keeping. So much lost information. So much lost data. So much waste. Every time I have

I haven't used a table for layout in 6-7 years, and although floated columns were initially difficult, I quickly found them to be very easy and more reliable than tables. These kinds of rants usually come from programmers who don't want to

I read it as saying that most CEOs are skilled but interchangeable workers, like bus drivers. It takes skill, but the route is set, by the board, by shareholders, by expectations. Of course the metaphor breaks down pretty quickly, but I thi

The problem is that this is private communication and I don't trust Facebook to do private communication well. I don't trust that my drunk email to an ex girlfriend won't somehow be accessible by someone else, so I won't use it. I'm sure a

I've had this happen. I always try to get residential deliveries from UPS because they seem to understand this better. Maybe Fedex needs to add an incentive for successful deliveries instead of just completing the shift. Or maybe they don't

But 9 times out of 10, I'm viewing video in a web browser. Splitting it out only makes sense if they track which videos are being viewed in a web page and which ones are viewed in apps, and they aren't doing that, so the graph is meaningles

Is he saying that Amazon will sell the Kindle at a loss, so they can control the market where they sell ebooks at a loss? And what, make it up on volume? I think they'll have to trim down the features on the low end version to get productio
