Why not just be honest and tell us what metrics you’re trying to game and how this makes you more money and I’d understand. I want you to make money and be employed. Don’t pretend this redesign makes anything better for anyone visiting the site. No user has ever requested autoplay videos. 

Syracuse, NY has their own low bridge at 10' 9" with all the flashing lights and signs and detectors that don’t stop people intent on smashing their vehicles.
Four people died when a Megabus hit is in 2010 http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2010/09/at_least_two_dead_possibly_mor.html They did not change the bridge…

At least they found a new spokesperson for their marketing campaign.

I bet Martin Shkreli would disagree. This is the second major pharmaceutical price gouging investigation recently and I believe the media has been much nicer to Bresch than Shkreli.

State sponsored attacker? The hack was originally reported in August: https://motherboard.vice.com/read/yahoo-supposed-data-breach-200-million-credentials-dark-web 

Freak accidents at filling stations do happen.

For me, cutting the cord wasn’t about replacing cable for less money. It was about keeping the 0.01% of content I loved and throwing out all the garbage. I have Netflix and Prime and I buy the two series I love that aren’t on those services. Now we use the TV way less than before and spend more time walking the dog,…

I’ve been using Bluetooth for audio exclusively for at least a year. I have it in my car, an external speaker, and a pair of cheap Bluetooth headphones ($15 generic QY7s). I’m using an Android phone so charging is easy - the peripherals charge with the same USB cable as the phone. I really hated having a headphone…

When I hard boil eggs on the stove they’re difficult to peel. I have a combo toaster-egg poacher that can hard boil up to 4 eggs at a time. When it’s done I put them in cold water for a minute or two then they peel incredibly easy. I’ve done a dozen eggs in three batches and it takes a little longer but it’s much less…

So customers opted-in to having their data sold and that data is being used in scientific research to hopefully cure a devastating disease. That sounds like a very good outcome for everyone.

One more thing, Apple just invented the curved display!

That plan worked awesome for Google Reader.

I would be interested in looking at the differences of playoff teams playing each other in the regular season compared to playing each other in the playoffs. A competitive Heat vs Pacers game probably takes longer than the Heat blowing out the Bucks. My guess is TV commercial breaks will be a greater percentage of the…

"If you do what you've done, you'll get what you got."

PEDs appear worse in baseball than football because so many high profile players are getting caught. Team leaders and stars are getting caught in baseball. If Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, or Adrian Peterson got caught with PEDs people would think the NFL has a problem. When mostly anonymous linemen and linebackers get…

You're absolutely right. If the post office or Fedex fail to deliver packages they just tell customers to eff off and pay for them anyway or to pay extra for a retry at delivery.

Before Apple entered the e-book marketplace there were no competent competitors to Amazon. It's not an illegal monopoly if all of your competition sucks.

If you run on a treadmill and there's a 'thud' noise every step you take then you're probably landing on your heels which is transferring a lot of stress and impact up through your legs. People who run with proper form are generally quiet on the treadmill.

In the long run it doesn't matter what the study results say. People who over pay for their sound equipment need to justify the expense. The comment threads are a great study in cognitive dissonance: [en.wikipedia.org]

I think a better question is:
