my friend found a table with a chess board on it and sat down
and noticed bob dylan leaning against the rail and looking at the water.
at first nobody noticed him but eventually he started to get surrounded.
my friend got up and walked right up to him and said
“bob we got the chess board you wanted”
and bob saw his chance and took it. my buddy got to play silent chess with him
the whole trip and as long as bob seemed engaged people seemed to
leave him alone.

Improving WhatsApp

Some ideas on how to improve WhatsApp by Maximilian Kiener. I think the read status indicator is the most elegant of the proposed features.
Drag and drop to share is too different from platform (iOS) conventions and would necessitate educating the users, something WhatsApp doesn’t do since their app is so unbelievably simple and platform-savvy.
Interesting stuff overall.

The most expensive comic book ever sold, $3.2M.
Produced in 1938, the comic marked the first appearance of Superman and is considered the genesis of the superhero genre of comics (although there is some debate about that)
Why so expensive?
The reason it was in such impeccable condition was that the while the first owner bought it for 10 cents from the newsstand in 1938 like 200,000 other people did, unlike most everyone else he lived at fairly high altitude in the Blue Ridge Mountains of West Virginia and when he finished reading it, he put the comic in a cedar chest where it remained virtually untouched for four decades. The cool, dark, dry environment of the cedar chest froze time for this comic.
