Answer: A lot of psychology often goes into logo design.​ In the case of the c.​.​.​ Top Stories from Your Feed Your Quora Digest Why is the "f" in the Facebook logo starting from the right bottom? Simon Beuller, Isn't it enough to know I ruined a perfectly good pony making a gift for you? Updated Jan 13 A lot of psychology often goes into logo design. In the case of the current Facebook icon, the "f" is off to the right probably because it's intended to sit to the left of Facebook's "search" line. If the "f" were centered, it would look disconnected from the search line. This way, it looks like a prompt, signalling you to type something after it -- to search for people you know. By extension, w...  Read More » How did China become a strong competitor in the high-speed rail industry? Henry Lu Written Jan 8, 2015 TL;DR: Big bucks, hostility to Japan and a well adapted Game Theory strategy. First, a little bit of background: China has long wanted to upgrade its massive rail network to the standards of Japan and France. From day one, the leadership knew this was going to be a big cake for whoever wins the bid, as the scale of the potential High Speed Railway (HSR) coverage is unheard of in this industr... Read More » What happened to the gold (and valuta) reserve of France during the German occupation? Gil Anderson Updated Sun Oh boy, do I have a story for you. The story of the second largest stock of gold at the time. The story of 2500 t of gold. At the time most of the French gold was in Paris, in the largest safe in the world, “La Souterraine” (The Underground). A room 30m (100 ft) underground, an area of 11 000 m² (118,403.01 ft²), supported by 658 pillars, closed by a turret of steel and concret weighing 130 t.

John Geare Written Aug 26 To answer this question, first forget about insurance, and determine whether you are at fault. If the canopy was improperly installed and maintained, then maybe you are. But maybe it was just a big gust of wind and nobody is really at fault. I’ll assume that is the case - big wind, canopy blew off, “act of God,” Now, if the car owner thinks you are liable, and you don’t pay voluntarily, then he ...  Read More » What is the U.S.A. doing to prevent China from becoming a superpower? Wang, You may disagree but please respect people's opinion. Updated Oct 6 Robert Garmong's answer to Is the U.S. trying to prevent China from becoming as powerful as them? This is an excellent answer to this similar question, which I fully agree with. The answer is really being objective though Robert Garmong seems to be an US citizen. It’s rare that Taiwan is included as a part of China for a picture from a western media.

Do I have a case? Rick Bruno, Retired cop, marathoner, husband/father/grandfather, time traveller Updated Jan 21 In my jurisdiction red light camera tickets are not heard in a court. They are heard at a hearing (duh), and the person making the decisions is not a judge but a hearing officer (a civilian, not a police officer). I have attended several of these hearing just out of curiousity. If you plead not guilty, they show you the video of your violation (which you already know), and unless you have a da...  Read More » Why hasn't Facebook migrated away from PHP? Carlos Matias La Borde, coder and product guy Written Apr 22 Few reasons: The cost to do so would be staggering. Truly absurdly huge. The cost of testing and bugs that would arise from new code would also be ridiculously huge. Facebook's version of PHP is likely very far removed from what most random devs use at this point, with all of their custom libraries and systems and with how it's compiled and served up.  Read More » What are some things that Japanese mothers do differently from American mothers? Mark Johnston, Knows Just Enough to be Dangerous Updated May 24 My oldest was born in Japan. These are some of the things we noticed in baby preschools, etc.: Japanese neonatal wards give the babies baths every day. American hospitals discourage bathing infants. In Japanese hospitals, babies don't wear hats and they're not swaddled; they're just given extra layers. Japanese neonatal wards are also warmer. American hospitals insist on babies sleeping on their b...  Read More » I ordered Lego on Amazon and the box showed that the set was fully constructed. However when I received the Lego set, it was disassembled. Do I submit a report to the company for tampering with the set? David Eaton, LEGO trivia buff, programmer, with generally nerdy tendencies. Written Dec 3, 2015 This has been a problem for LEGO for a LONG time. The original LEGO Automatic Binding Bricks in 1949 showed box art like this: But when you opened the box, this is what you got: No houses. No towers. Just loose bricks. I'm pretty sure the reason is Danish gnomes. After LEGO workers carefully assemble each set and pack it into the box, gnomes sneak in and take apart the set. LEGO has bee... Read More »   Read More in Your Feed Follow Quora on: Get the App for iOS and Android This email was sent by Quora (650 Castro Street #450, Mountain View, CA 94041).
