A classic if there ever was one, have read several times and will do again. After reading, I self-identify as high-prole.

I remember the Print Shop as a kid! Yah I guess specialization won out. We don't even have to see our holiday cards now. Upload a photoshopped picture and mail merge and start getting compliments from friends and family a week later.

Much of A/B testing is far deeper than the color of buttons. How much faster can we process payments through provider A versus B in different countries around the world? If we offer insurance after checkout, do we convert more than off

I was cooking tacos for my family knowing I had COVID (we all had it at the time). I remember not smelling the seasoning, and threw a small handful of chopped raw onions in my mouth to confirm the bad news... Luckily it came back in about a

Nice, which watch you thinking? Something a bit off the beaten path? Vacheron, Journe, Laurent Ferrier perhaps?

The book "Bad Science" has wonderful discussions and examples of the placebo effect as it relates to medical research. Highly recommended.

I have been thinking about GORILLA.BAS this entire thread. I don't remember playing Scorched Earth as a kid, but somehow must have been exposed to it to make that connection 30 years later. My middle school offered a BASIC class in the

All my wife's family bought houses here in the 80s. They would not be able to remotely afford to live here if they had to pay for housing at today's market rates. I think there is probably a lot of this in the Bay.
