If TouchBar was above the function key row, as opposed to replacing it, everyone would praise it as yet another example of Apple's genius at UI/usability. But it's not, so they don'…

>Wynne Godley's Maastricht and All That[1] is a great explanation of why the Euro was, and in fact is, doomed to failure and the UK was correct to stay out. The Guardian speculated in 2013 …

Other way around. The Guardian speculated in 2013 http://www.theguardian.com/business/economics-blog/2013/jun/... that if Britain had joined the Euro: * The mid-…

Bill Clinton is mentioned. "Three years ago" means that ABC suppressed the story during the 2016 presidential election.

Whether joking or not, you are incorrect. The 2012 non-Retina MacBook Pros do not allow more than 16GB RAM.

Yes, the article discusses this: >The rise of the sexy Halloween costume probably began sometime after the 1960s, but its biggest pop culture moment came in the 2004 movie "Mean Girls." C…

I had to edit the headline to fit. Original is "Sexy witch. Sexy nurse. Sexy Mr. Rogers? Inside the sexy Halloween costume industrial complex."

Not time specifically, but if Goodreads is linked, it automatically records the date the book is first opened, and the date the book is finished.

>Eventually, China may lose the labor cost advantage; it's already declined quite a bit as wages go up. According to Peter Zeihan's The Accidental Superpower (2014), manufacturing in Ch…

My theory is that the more variable weather in New York helps. While it's great essentially not having any rain in San Francisco for ten months of the year, moisture helps in removing feces and u…

I thought money from China (legal and illegal), not America, was driving BC real estate.

>I never said Trump is at fault for these results. No, but you blamed Trump for not getting the results for other countries. Let me repeat again what you wrote: >Replacing a rule where rich coun…

I love your rushing to pretend that you didn't write what you wrote: >Good. This might actually be the one good thing that Trump has accomplished. >Or that would have been my reaction until…

> USians Ah yes, you're one of those who think that not calling the only country in the world with the word "America" in its name, "America", somehow strikes a mighty blow …

I've sold Amazon and Best Buy gift cards for more than face value on eBay. https://www.reddit.com/r/apple/comments/6uypt5/what_to_spend... …

>Trump’e arguments weren’t wrong Just say "Trump was right". You will not be condemned by bien-pensants as a thought-criminal. At least, not immediately. >I just wish he could get th…

Trump is president of the United States, not of the EU. It is the EU and its member states' onus to obtain similar changes, should they believe them desirable. That you begin with a snarky remark…

>It might buy half a seat in a future capsule once bigger fish have been pacified. Best if the Australian astronauts are already training in the US and ideally have dual nationality. Ah yes, since …

You are correct. (Pebble also used transflective LCD and also called it "e-paper".)

I can confirm that as of December-January it was possible to find a decent 900-1000 sq ft house with two bedrooms in southern SF (Visitacion Valley or Crocker/Amazon, say) or Daly City, near BART…

Menthol cigarettes are so popular among blacks that black groups claimed that banning them would be a violation of civil rights. http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/201…

Generally same in the US. In California, there is no sales tax on food except for 1) eat-in and 2) take-away of hot food. You see the latter apply in Subway, for example, when purchasing a sandwich wi…

>Being from Norway I considered buying electronics cheap in the in the US but discovered it was not worth it. Once you factor in the 25% VAT in, the difference shrinks. Nowhere in the US is there a…

Nothing embarrassing about it. Until the early 1960s, scientists (and, thus, science fiction) were split about 40/40/20 on whether Venus was mostly ocean, mostly swamp, or mostly desert.

Chrome has become much better with tabs in the past year. I should know; I have more than two thousand open. I use The Great Discarder (discussed elsewhere) and FooTab (which helps a lot when starti…
