Such a long article, and the reporter never bothered to talk to a doctor and get reassurance that indeed the hefty price of the sling is unjustified. This isn't journalism, it's gossip. Sling may or may not be overpriced. Amazingly, you can't tell from this 1000 worder

Most people don't know this, but evernote was created maybe 15 years ago, as a desktop app (https://lifehacker.com/download-of-the-day-evernote-2-0-wind...). I used evernote before their version 3, which is the one everyone knows today. Evernote 2 was a brilliant note taking app, the first and best of its kind, and it cost a few dozen bucks, which I gladly paid... Then they shifted to the online version called Evernote 3, abandoned their original client base, and started charging a monthly fee in place of the perpetual license (that people already paid...). All this, to say this wouldn't be the first time evernote disappoints loyal customers. I guess you do what you have to do to survive...

You seriously had to book a shitty hotel in order to understand that you're being manipulated?

Let me give you the short version of how to book on booking, which is BTW an excellent site for travel arrangements:

1) Ignore anything that makes it sound like you're in a competition. Cheapest price, someone is looking, etc. You're trying to book a hotel room that suits you, not win a race.

2) Any hotel ranked below 9+ has problems. You just need to figure out what the problems are, and those will appear in the reviews section. Don't be lazy - you need to read dozens of reviews. The good news is that you can skip the good reviews - they won't contain what you're looking for. If you book any hotel that has a less than 9 average, make sure you understand what people didn't like about it. If it's over 9, everyone liked it, and you will too.
