I cannot believe Salt Lake City made this list - there was an NYTimes article about the lake drying up and causing massive air quality issues like you point out. Even if you ignore that - does the area have enough fresh water?

I'm a big believer in takeout and delivery. While you are correct, sometimes the food isn't piping hot, you just need to find the places that can handle the delivery. I don't know about "most big cities" but New York is exceptional at this. The bike messengers can go 20-25 blocks so fast, I swear they're magical. 

I wouldn’t put much faith in this tool.

I generally agree (hence my status as a city dweller). Getting in the car all the time sucks.

As someone from the suburbs who now lives in an ultra dense city - rural is *wild* to me. I’ve only been a few times, but it breaks my brain every time.

Also - being able to get places quickly! In many cases, that Target that’s 5 miles away is only a 10 minute drive! So cool!

It’s a bad time to break your iPhone...

Unfortunately, they’re really not going to like their new manager (he’s my manager, and one of the big reasons I’m leaving).

I did this to my employees this week and really spooked them. In this case, I was the one leaving - I quit and had to notify each of them that they would be reporting to someone new.

This is going to be very useful for my horrible golf game.

You’ve done the Internet a service. Thank you!

I think this arrived last month, but: Players.

Star Wars Phantom Menace - doesn’t matter what age I was - no one should see that movie

I almost always ask for feedback and rarely get it, for legal reasons that you mentioned. I can guarantee almost no one is going to put anything in writing.

You put the Silpat under the cutting board so it doesn’t slide around, right? Is there a risk of damaging the Silpat in this way?

Bank of America (and I assume all the other banks, too) do manage to make money on your money exchanges though.

You are correct - sorry if I wasn’t clear. I meant the Floppy Disk couldn’t automatically infect you. The USB is much nastier.

At least with floppys, there was no auto execute (or at least it was easy to turn off). It was pretty hard (impossible?) to get a virus just from putting the disk in and reading the drive.
