I have heard that it is quite possible. Supposedly if you measure enough characteristics of the phone, the combination of such characteristics is enough to uniquely identify a phone. May be able to poll such information you measure with tho

I don't think Snap came up with the idea of stories either. They did it with better polish than previous ones to market. Small company comes up with idea, bigger company copies them, yet bigger company copies them. It has been going on

I thought the joke was that they had interns write that? I remember an API that would hold onto completion blocks and call them repeatedly instead of just once. They would also accidentally make non backwardly compatible changes to the API.

For new users have them auto follow tweets nearby. This will be familiar to them and from there they can learn to follow and unfollow. Make following a lot more accessible.

Reminds me that supposedly debate in Greece originated in trying to convince others of your side rather than as a means of understanding the other side. If you go to high school debate you see this played out. Neither side arrives at the tr

That is not a universal truth. It can often be true. In the real world there is also hate speech, lying, cheating, and bullying and it is far from rare. You need to figure out which one it is.

Costco and Trader Joe's workers supposedly get much more than minimum wage although not venture capital based. It isn't an economic law.

Selective outrage over free speech is biased. If you take a stand for free speech you do it both inside and outside the institution. Where is his outrage over lies and hate speech from the President? Words can be weapons and quelling one si

A product I worked on was a victim of Microsoft changing preferred APIs. Their competing product which the prior year had less market share somehow sported the new UI instantly when the UI became publicly available. Monopolistic behavior if

I think the idea is that the ad networks then don't have any idea what you are actually interested in. The problem from Google's side is that it is pay per click for the advertiser so advertisers are paying for these fake clicks.

We live in an interacting system of market systems, governments, democracies, culture, and technological evolution on a blue, green, brown, and white planet. It is a giant spaghetti ball full of externalities and extremes. Masses of humanit

I think the idea is to combine glasses projecting an image to your eyes with body sensors for gesturing (watch?) and you won't need a screen anymore.

Geofence, significant location change, and push waking up the app don't happen on user forced shutdown. App urls though are a different matter. :) I am not totally sure of geofencing.

You can do that already with user exposed controls on iOS. Just force shut down the app.
