Interesting to see this brought up again by Businessweek but this is far from news – Nestlé and PepsiCo were featured in the 2009 documentary Tapped , which came to many of the same conclusions, and brought up other potential health issues

Signup seems to be broken? I've tried a few 'random' (keyboard-mashing) usernames to no avail. As guptaneil pointed out, some immediate form feedback on username availability would be very helpful as well.

The idea that we should create a ban on private primary and secondary-ed institutions to fix the public system is incomprehensible to me. Should we force people with enough time and effort to devote to quit homeschooling, too? How about t

I see there's a mini-shitstorm going on here, but let's say Google is in fact a business acting in its own self-interest to some degree, which seems reasonable. Let's say they're giving away Chromebooks because a) they w

You're criticizing The Atlantic (which happens to be a print publication as well, not just online) for an article stating that Bitcoin won't become an everyday currency, but saying "it doesn't have to fit [that] role.&qu

That 30% price change in a year was an anomaly, and it was in 1980, during a severe global recession. Bitcoin, meanwhile, just gained value approximately eightfold over several weeks ago, and it's relatively unusual that it isn't

I kind of wonder if that's because a lot of updates are rolled out poorly to older devices. On my previous two phones, I've ended up running CyanogenMod or another third-party ROM, even at the same base Android version at the stoc

Nearly ordered myself a test before discovering this mess on the day the FDA sent their letter. I would really hope they'd provide some sort of compensation to those who're being screwed...doubtful that'll happen though.
