Yes, but the Twilio implementation of this has been very frustrating. The process is (needlessly?) complex and has changed several times since it's inception. The last time I had to adjust our 10DLC configuration I was forced to use

So, is it time for Yahoo! 2.0 yet? Years ago I read a blog post talking about the next big ideas (Joel Spolsky?) and the one that stood out was a new search engine. At the time I thought it was a crazy idea; who|what would|could replace G

I only have a 5 digit Slashdot ID, but I remember the early days. I really, really liked /. back in the day. I don't remember what happened to drive me away but going back now the content seems to be very similar to what's

What does the Apple Vision Pro offer in terms of expanded vision? Can I zoom in on something while wearing them? Can I use them to see into the Infrared spectrum? What about decoding QR Codes in real time and displaying the metadata? One

By the same token, if the server can be tricked into storing the wrong password, authentication is defeated. However, with passkeys, even downloading the entire database doesn't give the attacker any useful credential information. Th

Wow, this makes me think of the fabled zooming interface[0]. Why limit yourself to a "monitor" or a set of windows when the sky's (literally) the limit? With a ZUI you could have the entire world at your fingertips. Browse

You know, current BEVs might not be the right solution for you right now, and that's OK. I love my Model X and wouldn't trade it for the world, however I realize that not everyone in the world has the same set of requirements tha

Agreed. In order to get Alexa to do some "higher order" stuff you have to be very explicit and program each step into a routine. This routine never changes or grows and barely adapts to the environment. For example, I have a ro

My 84 year old mother does remarkably well with her suite of Apple products. However, it would be nice to simplify some things. She only calls or chats with a limited number of people. Reworking the phone and messenger apps to use large

I've been WFO for the last 3 years and I love it. However, one of my favorite work times was being in the office when I was younger. I think the difference might be that we had lots of stuff to do in the office. They had a great caf

Yea, back in my youth the mall was the place to be. Hang out at the music shop and dream of owning that drum kit or bass guitar. Hit the food court with your friends. Maybe buy a pair of shoes or something. However, in the last several y

As a corporate low level programmer far away from the SV world, this book was rather eye opening to me. It might not have been the best take on the world or proven out in history, but reading it helped me down the path of open source and u

Holy Carp! I didn't think about someone just registering all kinds of "normal" looking domain names: archive.zip, photos.zip, budget.zip, music.zip, etc. Just register those domains and sit back and wait for people to come k

Yea, the Google store credit really feels like a slap in the face. "Hey, if you liked the old thing that we took away you should purchase the new thing that we'll take away."

Alexa is weird this way. It has the ability to assign things to certain areas, it's just hard to figure out how to make it happen. For example, I have Alexa controlled lights in my basement and it knows what to turn on when I say &qu

Funnily enough, there used to be "standard schematics" provided with electronic things. I think my first computer (VIC-20?) had pretty detailed information on the external ports (joystick, power, printer, etc.) I also look forwa

I feel like this is just one more thing that Google leadership is failing at. I have some similar examples to the ones in the article. I recommended that my brother-in-law get a Google wifi AP some years ago. Recently, I got an email fro

At first I thought this was just a gimmick without any real-world usage, the last several demos in the video changed my mind. Having a button raise itself until pressed would be a great feature for something like a car touchscreen. The arg

It feels the same as back when the music industry thought that those that pirated music would automatically purchase it if the "free" version was removed. They were wrong then and the streaming services are just as wrong now. I t

This also happened (happens) to me and my 2020 Model Y. When I first purchased the car I had a Google Pixel 4 (I think) and now I have an iPhone 13 running the latest iOS. My car still doesn't unlock right away about 1 out of 20 time
