Taking jobs? Who, is giving them illegal jobs? Why aren't people talking about this and doing something about it?

There was a 10 year or so build up prior to Nevermind where punk (and it's variants) were not being played on the radio (obviously, which was still relevant then). You didn't hear Black Flag, Minor Threat, Hüsker Dü et al. on the

In 2008 I made onemilescroll.com with Daniel Eatock. It was a fun project where we allowed users to post things at whatever height. It wasn't nearly as rigorous as WHW. Eventually it required updates... https://web.archive.o

Very corrupt political and wealthy class for starters. If you want to do some research look into the Petrocaribe scandal and the recent assassination of the president. I lived there for five years (until 2019) and everything got a little mo

Add me to the list of NYT subscription failures. Sorry NYT, but I will never sign up again (and I think you are a good newspaper) unless you come clean about these lame practices.

I recently moved to Kathmandu, Nepal (I'm a US citizen). The air quality is debilitating. All the gyms I've looked at (except the American Club which costs $100/month) have open windows, so you are more or less unable to exer

Perhaps we should convince their group that berberechos are a new discovery?...haha. I'm in Kathmandu and today at my local market chain (Big Mart) I found frozen ostrich meat - an interesting surprise.

The bigger story is the missing $2B - the story does touch upon that. Many contracts were handed out for works to companies owned by people in government or their friends and the works were not done.

People are so exhausted from the aforementioned demonstrations I doubt anybody will demonstrate based on this new information. (I know people who went two weeks without any water in their home.) I just can't imagine Moise remains presi

Yes. I also grew up with Simon in the background. And also alot of Earth Wind and Fire. My parents were immigrants and we had alot of different music around the house. But, Talking Heads for me were the seminal band. Byrne/Eno's M

I lived in Mauritania for five and half years and on two occasions a friend saw snow flurries in northern areas of the country. It's probably more common than we know.

There was significant investment and most of that has lead to very little. There are efforts recently trying to do more complicated textile manufacturing but I have heard that factory owners aren't interested in doing more than simple

In 1981, when I was 12 years old, I visited my brothers university to watch him graduate. I didn't have much to do so they showed me the computer they had installed in one of the study rooms at his fraternity. It had a phone modem - th

Hmmm, what about all the failed Kickstarters? Here's another one worth a half a million bucks, with a rock-star co-founder (Yugo Nakamura), and two years later almost zero delivery. Just more empty promises and lack of delivery (except

It's ridiculous the way they hand out the ability to make comments. These days, the comments are so watered down many of them are mostly useless. "Tell us about your process"..."tell us more about onboarding". Comme

I have a few friends in Greece who will do anything to avoid paying taxes. Sadly, they think Greece will be the next Iceland and it's just not the right comparison.

Yep, nationalism is on the rise and it's a bit ugly. As a US citizen living in Europe for over 10 years now, I wish that people would just get along. There is a deep lack of faith and trust between people. And, furthermore, that the ec

A similar thing happened to me years ago. I had a project that surprisingly became a bit popular and there were two competitor projects that ripped on the work. The first one ripped our entire site and simply changed all the texts slightly,
