Personally, don’t really care or use the door close button. However, would so much love it if I press a floor by accident, the second press deselects it.

Pre-Covid, wife and I went and tried a Grilled Cheese place in town that had been open for at least a year. As we were checking out on the tablet they had, my wife asked something about the Tip prompt on it. The cashier said, "Don&#x

I tend to think, at least here on HN, the comments tend to provide more context to the linked article/question. The audience here is more technically knowledgable on subjects and the conversation can certainly offer much more than the

On a recent trip to Chicago, from the airport, the taxi was about half the price of Uber to downtown, which my wife and I waited about 20 minutes for. Uber would have been a faster pickup at that point, however. The taxi picked us up, proc
