The Onion closes up shop after 33 years when reality deemed "weirder and dumber than any shit we could ever think of. We had a good run."

There need to be more co-op open source shops rather than corporate behemoths that don't care about UX, consistency, or users. Churn is pointless changes. Changes should improve things, not provide job security, offer design novelty, o

How much would a Class A be worth these days?

That's not what the word means. Trying to redefine language for political correctness reasons is absurd. Smh.

They're (i.e., H. habilis) already classified as "Archaic humans." To call every H. "human" or "people" is ridiculous.

Thanks for that. I love French aphorisms.

Yep. I worked as a consultant in the Valley. Sometimes, folks wanted me to work at these dying shops. I was always hesitant because they're not fun places but they do have more technical and political challenges than elsewhere.

There's no redeemable "user value" to addictive videos. It's monopolization of attention with a drug.

One observation: the longer companies go on without big wins and innovative leadership, the more stressful, messy, and generally horrible they become. The cool peeps left first, and then it tends to circle the drain into oblivion from there

A microblogging service should cost micro crypto to post, and have a rate gently exponential with # of characters.

Davis failed the "no *sshole" rule, and so, morale and retention suffered. If you want people to stay, don't be a dick and don't treat them like serfs.

I'll never buy an LG product if that's how they play things.

I did client-facing tech consulting for mobile handset mfgrs. There is often a suite of servers that powers each type of phone too. Whenever they turn those off, large portions of the phone, or the whole phone, may stop working too. Motorol

It's dual-use creepy and practical. Cleaning people need to know where things belong after last night's statutory rape "role playing" with middle schoolers and high schoolers. The other thing is, if you're a suppose

Yes and I think we're stuck with what's already happening: modifications to existing classifications by genetic discoveries as they occur. There's no good way to please everyone, have a trillion special cases, or throw it all

It would be better to already have arrangements pre-paid (Edit: in the US, it's called "pre-need" and can save 80-90% of the costs by buying decades before), and the coroner and the mortician notified. Having someone "fi

Add in a dose of Palantir used by corporate security organizations, and you have push-button operations that can direct global recrimination, up to and including, droning, in certain circumstances.

It seems a little impractical to print yourself given the size of the parts. This idea has too many moving components, I don't think it's a good idea. There are already companies who sell dual-use nitrogen equipment for home brewi

> I wonder what is downvoteable about my original comment. Lazy randoms who disagree also often feel entitled that they don't have to explain their displeasure or engage in meaningful discourse. Instead, they will try to silence you

It seems like an unnecessary accommodation for the easily offended. This sort of pandering cedes more and more control to the whims of sheltered, infantile crybullies.

The core problem of taxonomic classification of species is that they're semi-arbitrary, constantly-drifting centroids of similarity, not static, walled-off groups with definitive boundaries. For those who aren't scientists, we are

Paranoia like a coked-out Tony Montana isn't a sustainable business strat, but an efficient way to snatch defeat from the jaws of success. Not everyone is "out to get you."

Anecdotal example not widely-applicable. If the climate is changes from semi-arid Mediterranean to desert, forests will dry up, burn, and not return as they were.

For a second, I thought "capsule" meant "pill." "Pod" would've been a better word. Obligatory: Does it have "quick and painless", "slow and horrible", and "clumsy bludgeoning"

Some carcinogenic baby powder. Throwing away a razor cartridge after every use. Wasteful. Lever 2000 soap. Tacky and gross. Tide with bleach. Nasty. Disposable cameras. Hmm. And it looks like Jeffrey didn't use condoms.

Gotcha capitalism and inverted totalitarianism. Submit to the interests of the plutocrats and go into debt buying today's fancy widgets, or be banished.
