Sorry, I mixed up the one you were responding to, I'd guess you're correct as that's what I would've felt was creepy sometimes. My kids got overwhelmed by all the Happy Birthday/special greetings on the first day so

The greetings seemed to be based off of buttons the kids could wear or if it was marked on a reservation, there was a tick box asking about special events.

It's much easier than you might think and the noise isn't too bad. I commonly take a conference call while walking and typing, a good headset alleviates most noise issues (better than folks in there cars).

I can't definitively say that you MUST touch but you have to get very close, if not always touching. It also has to be oriented correctly (mouse ears up), there's not too much wiggle room on any of the readers (turnstile, room, ha

It reads kind of like a fluff/marketing piece but I'll be damned if it wasn't pretty seamless. I have no idea what it was like prior to the bands but the whole experience was clearly made a lot easier by them and the accompan

I was pretty surprised it wasn't there as well, though the COL has gone up significantly compared to what it was, it's still relatively cheap compared to some of the major hubs. Though judging by the plates around here, people hav

I dunno, Nashville's got the AT&T building, heck Google put it squarely in the shot and images for this rollout, seems almost like a message, though it is pretty iconic in a city with little other skyline.

In chrome none of the labels have any text so when scrolling after the push (*Available for free only for 10,000 people who are serious about productivity), there are just empty text boxes, buttons, and a few HRs.

You can now resize the intellisense window, allowing you to view more information in the intellisense window. Thank you...thank you ever so much. It's less of a need and more of an annoyance.

Thanks for the detailed response, that is clearly my mistake. I did an install from NuGet and went with 2.1.1 making an assumption that the latest build was the greatest build and not really doing a lot of research. On my end, it was a brow

That's a nice way to view it but as a contractor/freelancer part of your job is getting and retaining contracts. While a big part of that is the work you do and the results you produce, people pleasing and team fit play a part as

If I glossed over that correctly, it seems more like a "Bank tax rule tightening", they estimate 5B over 5 years, 4 of which come from changing/tightening banking regulations and 1B (over 5 years) of which comes from mutlinat
