I feel like every time there is a discussion about Amazon on the Internet, this point is brought up. I spent about $9,000 on Amazon across 139 orders in 2018. I buy a lot on Amazon. I've never had a problem with receiving knockoff prod

The fact that you haven't had it enabled for years is probably why you can't understand its usefulness. It's just not part of your workflow because its not available. It does in fact provide a lot of value. As an example, ent

This is like refraining from voting in an election because "my vote won't matter." If enough people "Report Spam" then even LinkedIn's email operation will start to be impacted.

There's a walmart near me that has been testing this. And it is essentially a drive thru. You place an order online (its for groceries, so yes you can order perishables), and have the option to either drive to the store park in a desig

This pretty well sums up my feelings on how children's movies approach profanity. Or in the article, how the musical avoided using the word "belly." The curse word itself is only offensive because of the meaning, or what it i

I actually think I'll be using this quite soon. I've also shown it to an excited PM, who thinks this could be useful for some clients that have been building reports from spreadsheets. For me, I think there's a great use case

Notice that this app was created by a group of interns at Rally, which is a larger, publicly traded company. This isn't just someone's side project...

I've found that automating my finances make a lot of those stresses go away. I don't have to worry about accidentally overspending in my checking account and not being able to pay my bills because my bills are paid from a separate

My wife's family comes from the coastal islands off South Carolina. They speak English, but I just could not understand anything the locals said. The dialect/culture is called Gullah: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki&#

Unless you're talking about the height with the doors open being the problem, the Falcon Wings seem to require less space than the regular doors to open. If you didn't notice, the picture on the linked page is interactive. Click-a

I don't have a college degree. I just enrolled at a local college to finish my BS in Computer Science. I've not exactly had trouble finding work, and make more than most college graduates. I'm going back because: * I don't want my res

I stared at the landing page for a few seconds, waiting for it to do something. Then, I clicked around furiously trying to figure out what I was supposed to do. Then I accidentally scrolled down and found the content. The landing page is a
