AnyList does combine ingredients from multiple recipes, but the ingredient names and units have to match. For example, if one recipe calls for "2 onions" and another recipe calls for "3 onions", you'll see a single

ContactLensKing.com is substantially cheaper than JetLenses for the contacts I wear, the Bausch & Lomb Ultras. $43 for a 6 pack on JetLenses, $30 on ContactLensKing: https://www.jetlenses.com/Ultra-6PK_p_76.html https:

You probably should have gently removed it with a pair of tweezers from your first aid kit, not killed it and gouged its head out of you: https://www.cdc.gov/lyme/removal/index.html

I believe the accident happened on US 101, which is a multi-lane highway with 5 or 6 lanes at the spot where the accident occurred. How many of the trips Tesla is citing occurred with the vehicle in the same lane as this guy? Comparing appl

OK. I still don't understand the reference to "ad dollars". What are "ad dollars" in this context, and how do insurance premiums look like ad dollars?

It would be amazing if this were a precursor to the "Apple tax" being lowered. If Apple is going to lower their 30% take on app sales, then perhaps that requires lowering these affiliate commissions. I know this is probably wishfu

Where do you recommend shopping for outdoors gear that offers a significantly better value than REI? The gear at REI is not cheap, for sure, but it's also high quality. You can get cheaper gear at big box stores and discounters, but it

That's a good point. Beepi seemed like they were just way too generous, in general. (See my comment elsewhere in this thread about them allowing you to charge your entire car purchase to a credit card.)

I bought a car on Beepi, and it was a great experience, much better than buying a used car from a traditional dealership or a private party (e.g., Craigslist). One thing that struck me as particularly crazy, though, is that they allowed you

What's your plan when you release the next major version of OmniGraffle? You will create a whole new App Store listing for it? Or you'll somehow have a single listing for OmniGraffle on the App Store, and people who have purchased

The US is not a region. US East (Northern Virginia) is one region, and US East (Ohio) is another region. There are also other US regions, like US West (Oregon) and US West (Northern California).

I hope that as part of this, some investigation will be done into pluralistic representation and better voting systems (e.g., Condorcet method[1]). If there is a minority viewpoint that can get, say 20% of the vote, but cannot get a majorit

Charging for software on a one-time basis without paid upgrades is inherently unsustainable. The only way to make it work is to, as the author points out, continually find new people who are willing to purchase your software. If you can fin

I am a SendGrid customer and received no notification from them about this. I only found out about it via Hacker News. Very poor form.

We chose not to build an Apple Watch app prior to its launch precisely because it difficult to do good design and engineering for a device that you don't have and have never used: http://blog.anylistapp.com/2015/04
