“Paid for by a totally independent research grant not provided by a corporation with an axe to grind against work from home.”

I see it as a signs of problems to come. Being a Mod sucks, the only reason most hung around was that they were passionate for the subs they moderated. Replacing moderators at first might be easy but I believe, with time, the turnover rate will increase linearly thus causing a massive drop in quality content as time progress. Thus causing a feed back loop of less good users, less good content and more shit users, more shit content, culminating in the slow and painful death Reddit.
I love how genuinely excited this guy gets about his designs / inventions. Even projects that are a bust he still manages to stay positive and have fun.
To be fair, Minnesota pulls bro. By designing a map where each state must touch it relegates well performing states to seems less profitable than they are. Is Minnesota California? Fuck no. But should Minnesota seem like the state equivalent of the guy on the couch? Also no.
