Never heard of it until today. > Spark, which launched in July, is a social feed of photos. It is similar to Instagram, but open only to Prime members. There is the reason--thinly veiled way to encourage people to buy Prime. Facebook suc

Gregg is not the way to go if you're looking for a shorthand that captures text in the way you would need for programming or science and I don't know of a good shorthand for this [if it wasn't already APL.] Gregg is very much

Am I the only person who immediately thought: WHY ISN'T YOUR BOOK NEXT TO YOU INSTEAD OF ON THE CART ONE LEVEL BENEATH THE SCAFFOLD? Was this seriously the A/B test?

You know, I had a sad thought about fusion-powered CO_2 and that was once it will be built, the energy is likely to be used not for CO_2 scrubbing but instead to mine Bitcoin.

N=1 situation: Found that drinking more water helped the joints of my back ease and reduced lower-back-pain. After that, you need to do functional movements and lift-heavy-things, often. Not too heavy, but enough to prompt your body to impr

Perhaps this should be a more relevant link, or is JWZ intentionally redirecting it from https://www.dnalounge.com/backstage/log/2017/06/14.html Either way, the hairy-ball-eggcup picture is inspired.

I want a pony. No, scratch that, I want TWO ponies. Direct democracies like this are a recipe for disaster and no "politician" taking this pledge is going to get any kind of help from the entrenched system which will be quite host

Read "mobile" and confused it with the noun some use for a mobile-phone instead of an adjective describing something else. English is a pain sometimes. :)

I really don't understand this fascination with enabling new "banking products." There are only five (4) features in the MVP of banking: * Protection: I want my SoV to remain mine--which means the bank should not be corrupt [

I don't think there are barriers at the "entry" level at all. You can't build something like Amazon or Walmart over-night, the sustain and focus in these corporations are only doing what the economic "fitness functi

This makes me wonder, has anyone used the Walmart "drive-up" shopping system where you shop online, drive to a specified location and they load your groceries after you pay?

If Amazon could drop $13B on a national grocery retailer they could just as easily drop some number of billions to buy every podunk regional bank willing to sell and merge them into the Bank of Amazonia. If Elon Musk doesn't do it firs

The Kroger-based store where I live just botched a floor-plan change so badly I should hope that it was just a local screw-up. This particular grocery store went from okay to "penny-thriftstore" useless.

I think this seriously discounts how "personal" these devices are for people. It would be like loaning a toothbrush to someone who already has one of their own and expecting it to be returned. At best, perhaps a loaned portable Wi

Amazon is now (or more so now) like Evil Corp in the Mr. Robot kind of way. You can ship your Evil groceries via Evil Prime purchased via voice-command with your Evil assistant device paid for with your Evil credit-card. Evil. Frankly I do

It is a cultural problem. I think the "younger" users don't use e-mail as much as they do other forms of "Internet" e.g. Facebook for authentication. Otherwise, I'm loathe to give out my e-mail address because

Use the same size notebook. Set aside front-matter pages for indexes and update them whenever you review the contents. Write the subject, date and page number on every page. Throw the notebooks away when they're more than ten years old
