The max volume doesn't help with songs that are far, far louder than others. I have this issue in our coffee shop, where a song that was playing at a normal volume on my AirPods, is extremely loud on Sonos. We flag it and take it off t

The angle of descent is of about 3 degrees, that's far less than the angle at which the aircraft is taking off. Thus the rear facing passengers would be facing down quite steeply on takeoff, and thus likely to vomit the airport lounge

It's not that simple. Something like this hurts the brand.

48v is a pretty big leap forward that I bet other automakers will replicate. So is assembling the interior (seats, console, etc.) onto the battery and lifting it into the vehicle. Also, the rigid wire harness that can be snapped in by robot

The pedals are manufactured (and likely assembled with the pad) by a supplier in Canada, according to https://www.cybertruckownersclub.com/forum/threads/nhtsa-off...

There's still a physical button for the wipers. On the Cybertruck it's on the steering wheel. When you press it to wipe (generally used for spray-washing the windshield), the entire menu pops up where you can choose the speed, fre

I'm surprised, to me it always looks & feels very different than most other Western cities, in part due to low-rise buildings and almost exclusively independently operated restaurants and shops. Most other large European cities all

Rivian really is tapping into a market that's underserved by Tesla with their new lineup, and into an outdoorsy trend that is going to last for decades at least. I've rented the R1T and R1S through several roadtrips last summer an

Self driving will largely make this topic irrelevant soon, however in the meantime, their time would be better spent developing a measurement of intuitiveness for touchscreens. With a few exceptions that they've since corrected, in a T

This is a forward thinking strategy for a camera maker. Instead of trying to fight the iPhone, they realized that this is a segment of the market they wouldn't capture regardless of the form factor they would adopt for Blackmagic camer

I fly a lot, and have noticed a very strong smell of fuel several times on various aircraft, while still at the gate just before taxiing to the runway. It always baffles me that passengers don't overreact to it, because it can be very

As someone who is more interested in building the product than marketing it, I found the following recent reads helpful in achieving a balance: 1. Crossing the Chasm by Geoffrey A. Moore - making your product work for the masses 2. The Cold

Is there a term for someone that is libertarian inclined, but does believe in a minimal level of government regulation and intervention? A "Lite-Libertarian" of sorts.

The feedback option would be shown on the customer’s phone the next time they open the app, in regards to their previous visit. If the customer ordered via the POS, it will be shown on the next visit, if they sign in with their phone number

Oops that’s indeed an error on our part. The medium has 2 shots, the large has 3 shots, so there should be a slight price difference. Will correct in the AM. Thanks!

We have 2 recurring customers that are vision impaired (there’s an apartment building for people with disabilities nearby). We help place their orders, as we would with any customer that needs help using the iPads for other reasons. Vision

Profit sharing only works if you stick around long enough. In the service industry, and especially amongst young people, it's common to pick up a job like this for a few months and make some money, then move on to something else. And t

Roughly half of the customers do head out as soon as the order is ready, especially in the morning. We print stickers regardless of to-stay or to-go because it helps us keep track of fulfilled items, and you can easily pass a sticker to a c

While profit sharing may work as an incentive for shift managers or store managers, in the absence of tips most baristas will expect some other immediate bonus pay, preferably based on a measurable metric that doesn't depend on factors

Yep. Didn't want to share it because it's embarrassing how taped together that page is, but I had to put something up in an afternoon, because in the absence of a website people were taking photos of the menu on the iPads to take

It's very interesting observing people use the app in person, as opposed to privately on their phone where you have no idea how they interact with it. For instance the Stripe Terminal reader is immediately to the right of the iPad POS,

I know what you mean. When the cashier at Whole Foods asks you, it does feel somewhat petty to say no. I think there was a South Park episode on that. But if the POS asks you, it doesn't feel as personal to turn down the option to dona

We only did it because the pandemic travel restrictions completely wiped off our previous (Bay Area-based) startup in just a few weeks, so I can see it happening.

We've had a few customers that have shown real interest in the POS system because they are small business owners too, and split their time between the register and everything else they have to do behind the counter. I've started c
