Am I the only one that twitched when the speaker on an educational video for Ted couldn’t properly use less/fewer?

For the longest time, I couldn’t figure out why sometimes my paper towels would tear more easily even though I always buy the same ones.

I’m not sure that the two scenarios clinteastwoodyallen outlines are always tied so closely together. I work for a decent sized company (nowhere near as large as Amazon, but still big), and they do a ton of internal promoting/hiring, and the sales team has actually had some of their perks reduced in recent years.

You might be surprised at the number of candidates who shoot themselves in the foot pretty early in the interview. Alternately, when you line up a bunch of candidates, sometimes you get a great match and the rest you’re just screening to make sure they’re not even better.

So mute her on your feed. You don’t have to listen.

Very cool. Glad you found a path to finishing.

I’d love to visit some of the middle east. I’ve never been there - what kind of job did you do that required moving to Sudan?

I found Quito to be much the same way. There were certainly areas that were unsafe, but plenty of just worn out areas that were fine to be in as long as you did what you should do in any city - keep your head up and your eyes open.

Great post.

On newer versions of Android (starting with something like 4.3), you can disable apps that you don’t want to use. It doesn’t delete them, but it stops them from showing up or starting with the OS.

Got it... well the guy in question is talking about how to be a millionaire by age 30. I don’t think you can expect him to have balance. I actually think a large part of the source article is incredibly stupid and obnoxious.

Why is “saving” mutually exclusive with “living”?

I’m not “believing” anything that any company is telling me.

That’s what happens when you stick your disk in other peoples’ filthy ports.

You think that GoPro designed, prototyped, produced and released this camera entirely in the 8 months since Polaroid released their product?

Does your cell phone battery drop to 15 minutes after a year?

The non-removable battery makes the battery life of this little device really, really important. Anything to report on that?

I bookmarked this long ago because the guy is pretty funny and the quote made me laugh: “If, however, this coat is melted or scrubbed off, and has no chance to reform, the operator is confronted with the problem of coping with a metal-fluorine fire. For dealing with this situation, I have always recommended a good…

Uh, you may want to remove that link which actually has the password reset token embedded in it.

I like this mug but it’s actually too effective. When I’ve got a mug of coffee, I usually want to drink it rather than just keep it warm forever. It’s so freakin’ efficient that, if the coffee is too hot to drink, it might stay too hot to drink for 30+ minutes.
