I agree Blue Apron is equally ridiculous and I totally agree that Juicero marketed to the wrong crowd. Juicero was too visible in high-standard markets and thus became an easy target. Whereas Blue Apron flew under the critic radar (mostly

You could say that same about Soylent as it's simply a Pediasure/Ensure marketed towards hipster 20-somethings. People love drawing the conclusion that superior marketing/design equates to better products. Often times, if yo

I've had this same problem on many websites lately and it's because they require Flash. Soundcloud and Glassdoor to name a couple. Sad state of the current web.

You don't understand how currency functions and you certainly don't understand how bitcoin operates. I'll leave you to consoling yourself.

Soundcloud is a digital discovery platform mostly. And a centralized free library that artists can release music on. It solves many problems for small-time artists and underground listeners. Bandcamp found a similar market for physical mu

Eating whole fruit is unbelievably more healthy, cheaper, and simple than the convoluted process this product serves. The time spent setting up this machine, throwing away the bags, electricity used, resources used, etc VS peeling an orange

As far as your question about taking drugs/supplements to increase cognitive function, I can say with certainty any positive effect in the short term will eventually fall to long term dependencies and addictions which will, in turn act

If the human experience hasn't ended, that means it is changing. And if it changes, then so too will the utility of art. The more people cry "art is dead", the greater the impending breakthrough.

I'm not sure of the fix, here. 1. We need a currency which supply and distribution of isn't under the control of corruptible humans. 2. We need to teach humans how to manage their own money and not give it away willingly
