Woman in tech here. I almost skipped reading the post because I instinctively thought "bro pages", like man pages but for bros. There are lots of bad ideas out there, shame this is a great idea with a name that inadvertantly sabotages it.

They're cancelling four of seven sections, not lectures, due to lack of demand.

All the lectures are still there.

Would be nice if you could select your vehicle and it'd auto select a likely size

This is like saying, I'm an employer and I want you to expose your fb profile to me so I can see the answers to all the questions it is illegal for me to ask you in your interview.

I wish I could upvote this twice.

There's lots of good stuff here: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/definitive-guide-to-the-prima...

You can also type 'movie showtimes' into google and there is a nice interface with maps which shows movies and which theatres they're playing at.

NASA just needs a bigger budget... http://gizmodo.com/5813257/air-conditioning-our-military-cos...

I sometimes feel like I have the opposite problem. I can come up with the algorithm which requires an understanding of why it works on the problem, but then I lose my train of thought while coding it (albeit this is happening in stressful interview write-on-the-whiteboard-while-I-judge-you situations).

Even if you don't save it explicitly, I find my browser cache is full of facebook photos when I go to clear it, so can retrieve it through there after the fact as well.

I didn't see that article cite the researchers, but it's probably this group: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM.

Pretty interesting talk about the rise of high fructose corn syrup.

Along the same lines, lots of companies make sunscreen in 10x ml quantities for the associated benefits. When the agent wanted to take away my 106 ml bottle, I asked if I could squeeze 6 ml out and take it on. No dice.

That's insane. I concede my post, your story is on a whole nother incompetence level.

I think we need a stufftheTSAconfiscated.tumblr.com.

I went through for a job interview and I had a cast on and a blow dryer and flat iron in my luggage. They swabbed my cast, and took the items and made me wait while they checked them out. I bet someone walked away that day with perfectly styled hair.

It felt wrong just loading the page.
