I like Mozilla's the most. It's most human-like and thus, easiest to understand

This is just a ploy to ensure that George RR Martin doesn't stop writing once the original WordStar stops working!

As with everything else that Stripe does, these books are beautifully designed as well. For me, their design has to be their differentiating factor.

Look at everyone in these replies pretending to be race blind. If this kid was Asian, you'd just go "eh, Asian prodigies" and not give it any further attention.

Mozart was writing symphonies by this age. Prodigies exist in every field.

Is there a geographical bias in your skepticism? Would you be as skeptical if this kid was from Norway or Sweden or Austria?

Not knocking this effort, but why are all decentralized, open social networks that hope to compete against Facebook and Instagram so...dull?

Their marketing is all the same wholesomeness and positive messaging. There's no "rebellious" streak to it at all.

But wholesomeness didn't help Facebook, Snapchat and Instagram grow. Facebook was the "adults only" social network that required a .edu address when it was challenging MySpace. Snapchat was pretty much a sexting app. Instagram is basically semi-nude models in its search feed.

I get what these people are trying to do, but you're not going to do that by being boring and corporate.

Google Drive lost some of my files due to syncing errors early on. Dropbox didn't.

Google Drive might have improved since (and I do use Google Apps for email and documents), but I haven't been able to forget that experience and trust Dropbox.

The idea that venture-backed startups are going to "democratize" finance and wretch it from the hands of big banks is ridiculous.

I would be really interested in an Apple designed car, not exactly an Apple created self-driving tech suite. I trust Apple's design far more than I trust Apple's hard tech chops, especially when it comes to processing massive amounts of data

I've always wondered what percentage of people use coffee for stimulation, and what percentage use it simply to induce the first bowel movement

When I was slightly younger (I'm 29 right now), I must have tried most nootropics imaginable, including microdosing LSD (slightly pleasant) and modafinil (worthless). I was looking for that "magic bullet" that would make me more focused and productive.

Nothing really worked.

What did work was waking up early and working out regularly. I sleep by 11 and wake up by 6. I get at least two hours of work in before hitting the gym for 45-60 minutes.

I manage to get far, far more work done than any Nootropic I ever tried.

It's an unequal relationship. Free trade would mean that Google and Amazon and Ford get a level playing field in China as well. But that's not the case.

The mainstream media has become a terrible place for any sort of rational discussion. They're too busy criticizing Trump to analyze the impact of these moves.

I have zero love for the man, but it's clear that the US has the upper hand in this trade war and should be able to squeeze China for better deals.

The upside is that we can still edit them all anytime :)

True. When I was starting out, I was tasked with editing the Wikipedia page of one of our clients to add more information. Wasn't anything sinister; the company just wanted to ensure the page had up to date information.

When I ventured to the 'Talk' page, I was surprised to see so many edits and comments from editors.

This was for a little known company in a niche field with little traffic or chance to profit. Yet the editors were as diligent as ever.
