Anyone know how to do this without creating a new account? I'm already using (and loving) Box.

Yeah, shame on this guy for displaying the kind of quality that would get him into the business he wanted to get into.

The AC in my car went out, and I didn't have the money to get it fixed. I went a full summer without it, but the second summer I wasn't about to do without AC. Did some googling and found that on my particular model (2000 Ford Escort), the problem as likely as not was a bad module rather than a compressor/coolant…

Where's that damn card that wouldn't fit in the rolodex? I swear I left it here somewhere.

Suggestions for a decent Pandora client for Windows 7?

Love this app. It's really helped motivate me to get out and exercise. The biggest disadvantage is the inability to create playlists in the app and skip songs you don't want to hear.

What's to stop me from shaking the crap out of my phone and then rolling over an going back to sleep? I'd still get full points, and I'd still be late for work.

I'd agree, except Microsoft already tried this strategy with the Zune. Epic fail. You're freaking Microsoft. You have a brand that people know. Exploit the crap out of that. Advertise. Run promotions. Cross sell. Stop dipping your toes in the pool like a little sissie; jump in and win the 50 meter freestyle.

#correction: "we get less good at identifying is someone"

I suggest a simple modification when you don't know how to help. Ask "how can I help." It's a subtle change, but I've had success with it, I think because it elicits an immediate response that you can act on rather than tasking the person with (a) thinking of something for you to do and (b) remembering that you…

Might the food production curves be affected if we started looking at other food sources—such as insects—that are widely available, easy to grow, easier on the environment, and require fewer resources? For example, there's a TED talk about insects, and it talked about how 10 lbs of grain will produce only 1 lb of…

Well said.

I understood what you were saying. I just think that the demographic transition is enough, and we don't need to worry too much about further measures. If you really want to limit reproduction, help make poorer countries richer.

"Also, nobody likes the grammar police so let it go since we all know what he meant."

Well said. What's more, whether you take a religious view of human existence where people are *supposed* to have children or an evolutionary one wherein we're driven to do so, why should we endeavor to stop reproducing?

I'm sure this has interesting and useful applications in biology and evolutionary science, but for right now, let's focus on NOT creating a dinosaur-driven apocolypse. It's already going to be hard enough evading the zombies, aliens, vampires, werewolves, cyborgs, and robots. Hmm...maybe I'm watching too much TV.

Good point. While we can't make a lot of assumptions about life outside of earth, we can stipulate that carbon-based life forms will have similar physical needs. We can also stipulate that any "advanced" species will have (or have had) the desire for procreation, which suggests competition, which could easily create…

It seems like you'd run into the law of diminishing returns really quickly with this one. I'm reminded of a certain Disney Pixar film:

It would also offer (as the article pointed out) the advantage of targeting proteins that don't change as quickly. Logically, this would mean those proteins would be common to more strains of the flu virus. We may have to periodically get a new vaccine, but not as often as we currently do. Combine that with the…

Is there a particular reason she covered this? Something perhaps to justify the removal of all the "soul" (see what I did there?) of the song. It's supposed to be upbeat and adventurous, not slow and boring.
