    I've been waiting for a while now for the ability to change the URL of a pin. It seems the primary key for a pin is the URL and changing it currently means doing a delete+create. W…

    There is no such provision. You can transfer the "balance" of a contract to another, but not any of it's internal state. This is left up to the programmer and AFAICT, they didn't i…

    FWIW, you can experience some of this right now. Connect a plugged-in iPhone to a bluetooth speaker and enable "Hey Siri." I did this the other day and it's pretty neat. Of course …
