    Maybe a fallback, not that you need one yet, when/if discarding is an issue, make a ring that has less functionality but isn't as obtrusive. The cool kids keep their Jewelbots in t…

    I have an answer... of course they're work but the language detection isn't automatic. You have to run the app first but if you have a Pixel 2 phone, it will run the app for you wh…

    Pardon if this was asked but it's not clear to me, since they are Bluetooth, wouldn't they work with any device that also runs Google Translate?

    As I'm local to you, I'll add that a Nob Hill Foods is in Alameda, a higher rent location, with a Foodmax on the Oakland side.

    I used to be frustrated that I would go to work, code for the better part of the day and not feel my project was moving to the end. I dedicated myself to finishing this sentence: "…

    Thank you. You got it exactly right, I knew I would have to look at myself in the mirror every day. I remembered what my mother, an amazing manager, taught me... the 5 most importa…

    I came back to CA for a job. I quit after 3 weeks when I was told that a big part of my job was to lie to the employees about their paychecks being secure. I took a part time contr…

    I have noticed over the years that good customer service comes from the top down. If the CEO doesn't give a crap, that attitude slides downhill to the people actually talking to cu…

    There are a lot of these types of services and if I were at one, I would make customer service my hallmark. This seems like a no brainer to me, and yet it seems farther down the pr…

    I'm sure we're not, but Twitter still feels like it's at the 1.0 version of the user experience.

    I can't catch that before it triggers a "call" to Apple to very the code and do something else? I'm thinking of rerouting to a feature inside my app that's special to users of that…

    Am I right in assuming that we could use this in our apps to do different things other than a promo?

    Meetings and sub-committee hearings on Space Command... but no time for the same on healthcare... Not trying to start a discussion, just noting the irony.

    I agree with the value you're talking about, but they don't help evaluate how hard a game is.

    Boss: I only want to hire the guy who worked on XXXX Project. me: That project was 2 years late and 1.2 million over budget. Boss: Still, he did something right.

    I'm no lawyer but I understood "fraud" to be misrepresentation. Who is being defrauded? The passenger pays one price, the company pays the driver and takes a bit of that fee. The c…
