It's 1 FA authentication because all you need is the phone to access the account. The password is irrelevant since all you need is access to the reset code that is sent via SMS. However, since you don't really even need access to

This drives me crazy too. Would you send an email that just said "hi"? Didn't think so. Is it that hard to just say "hi, [question]"? Instead I have to reply and then wait for them to type their question since I

I'm pretty sure that's they're main advantage over other toy block companies now that their patent has expired. (It might have more info in the article but I don't know because the paywall.)

Those autoscrolling things are very frustrating. I start to read something or look at a screenshot then it goes away. I can't make it stop either. I honestly don't get who thought this was a good idea but it makes me question the

Ok, so what if I live just outside the cone? What does that mean? The map is the same color for 1 mile from the cone and 1,000 miles from the cone. The map is flawed not the people looking at it.

There are two problems here. People don't know what the cone means. But even if they did, how are they supposed to act on it? It's hard to know what the cone means because it's way too over-simplified and they really shouldn&

Yes. It was pretty much the first thing I read actually. It makes a little more sense after a re-read. I still have no idea why there are snippets of code at the top telling me how to make a POST request. Anyway, I'm a developer, so wh

Thanks, I think I understand now. I honestly would have never guessed those were clickable without hovering. All I did was scroll. I didn't move the cursor so I also didn't notice the image change on mouse over.

Then you'll learn that your username is one that's under attack and that it's even more important to have a strong password. Put some useful documentation on the login page that explains it. What's wrong with that?

If they know more about you they can show you one at the top of your price range. Or maybe they know you like to finance things and they can show you a monthly payment. They could also show you one that happens to be your favorite color. Or

I bet it had to do with losing content. If you review something and Netflix removes it you either lose that data or Netflix has to display shows they don't carry anymore.

It's kind of ironic that it forces you to use a distracting feature of your phone: speakers. Text describing the product would be more minimal and informative.

That is awful. I can't believe you can accidentally put your car in reverse by dropping something. They created an unacceptable problem by solving a non existing problem like most car UXs these days.
