Love it, you’ve got to do 132nd street next. Trying to exit south bound during rush hour is delightful

I always think as an individual I would like this. But at scale I worry it would incentivize each department to advertise themselves to the public, which seems to me like a waste of funds. I already dislike the reelection cycle (politician

Interesting, where would you suggest someone starts if they’ve never seen that side of the sport?

Direct Air Capture is slow, but I think is a better solution than the "don't cut down trees" offset that we've historically seen. I hope that continued investment in DAC leads to new solutions to make it more effective.

I had to do similar things while in Canada. Trying to get HBO was impossible for someone living in a dorm.

Facebook and Twitter do not have the violent posts solved by any measure. But at the very least they make the gestures and put money towards trying to fix it. Parler has been vocal that they have no plans solving it. If they had at least sh

(In US) I agree that business owners should never refuse people based on political opinions. I would be firmly against AWS/Google not willing to work with a company because it has conservative views. In Parler's case, the issue is

Sounds interesting, but could you explain to me why I should use this over something like Azure KeyVault?

Those are very small sample sizes to make any assumptions from. 11 clicks for their test, and only 256 clicks for the larger referenced test. The larger test then makes a huge assumption in user behavior: "So, arguably, a user who sees

Sure the tech isn't great, but you've made a really great community with great content. You shouldn't be ashamed of choices at all - tech doesn't have to be perfect to deliver on its goals.

I also have one I submitted over the weekend. They haven't taken it down yet :). Mine is just geared towards my dislike of the favicons, not distinguishing the styling of the ads. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/f

Also, why are some red & grey? Looks like it turns red at 50%.

That's what I was thinking as well. I refreshed the page repeatedly and saw the percentage fluctuate as the score only went up. Not exactly a foolproof test though. I think you're probably still right.

Ah, okay. Hadn't thought of that, thanks.

I find it odd how it seems to be marketed to the general consumer, who usually won't need the high specs. What is the average person going to use USB on the router for? I have a $200+ router myself, but would feel too restricted with t

The Linksys: http://www.linksys.com/us/p/P-WRT1900AC/ Agreed, the specs between the WRT1900AC and the OnHub are strikingly similar. Even the advertised smart features.

It could be just because we're coming from Android, but my friend and I experienced an approachability problem with the iPad about a month ago. I was using an iPad on a flight (the in-flight entertainment was broken) and it took us, bo

I have a good phone and a great laptop. I can't really justify buying one. I have some friends that plan on buying them, so at least I have the chance to try them out.

I really like how all the trending keywords are words you'd typically see in spam mail.

Is there any word on if facebook will be including advertisements in this at all? It looks very sleek, but having ads come up would be a huge deterant.
