I'm happier to see Microsoft emulate Apple by introducing overpriced hardware than I am seeing Apple emulating Microsoft with an increasingly confusing product assortment and a bloated operating systems.

As someone who was not born in the US, but went to university and works here, the college admissions process is just totally bonkers. It seems to drive outcomes that are the opposite of the stated objective. To think that you can admit a mo

Thanks. A pet peeve of mine is when a geography-focused article doesn't include a map.

I have hunting dogs that will pickup hundreds of ticks if not protected. I use Bravcto (Fluralaner) on them now, which is extremely effective. Hopefully lotilaner is similar with humans. Most of the older generation of anti-tick meds have

If I needed to launder money, I would think running crypto through a Kickstater project would be a good way to do it. At least below a certain threshold where you don't create significant scrutiny.

I'm glad our century+ of gross mismanaging our forests is getting more press. But I think we're still fighting deeply entrenched mindsets that fire is always bad. Across the west, our forests are fire-adapted and need to burn to

I agree, but imagine how many things we commonly use in the US that we don't make and would be impossible to get if China & couple other countries introduced export controls on them.

I do the same. In addition to the security and privacy benefits, the traceability have been helpful. Years ago my Netflix account was hacked, and they refused to believe it was on their end. They were sure someone had accessed my email.

David Marcus is perhaps the poster child for failing up. He started a mobile payments company that was acquired by PayPal. The product was later discontinued and generated no value for PayPal. He ended up as the PayPal CEO. IMHO as a PP

There has been such a dramatic increase in comp in the tech industry recently. But it seems that is only realized through switching companies. I know for the company I'm at offers to external candidates have had to keep pace with the

Slightly shocking that he didn't get fired. (yet?) They fired Damore for writing an email that was tone-deaf, insensitive, but largely supported by research. Bobb goes on a clearly antisemitic rant, and just gets reassigned. Is Googl

Looks interesting. A few initial reactions: 1) I'm assuming I won't be able to use this with my enterprise email? Even if my admin doesn't block my calendar sharing, it seems like I'd be running afoul of our rules by s

I had no idea "Instagram famous houseplants" was a thing. My grandmother had loads of those around her old farmhouse in the 70's and 80's.

I've given glucosamine to my dogs for years, and I can clearly notice a difference in their joint health and how stiff and sore they are after long runs ('long-run': 15-25 miles, measured on GPS collars). When I run out of g

Another fun option for preserving eggs: salt them. I've never used them in a recipe (not sure if they'd work). but they are delicious eaten like charcuterie. https://www.google.com/search?q=cured+egg+yolks&oq
