Apple Maps, as it is today, is so much better than Google Maps. The UI is way more polished than Google Maps. The Google UI looks like it is designed by committee - it is so ugly and dense. I find it really offensive. The Apple Maps has bet

I have been in that position delivering that update. The kind of work you have to do as VP/Director does not translate well into the task oriented stand up updates that developers give. Often times I would be working across multiple pr

I think you are wrong. The software is miles ahead of competition in polish. And the cars that coming from Giga Shanghai are just as good as any other manufacturer - just read reviews in New Zealand.

Same for me. It is approximately 5.8kms from my apartment to work. I have walked it before during a bus driver strike, took just over an hour at a leisurely pace - 11mins per km. Normal days - it takes me around 6 to 8 minutes to walk to th

This is such a stupid simplistic view - read the BBC article on this leak of Uber files. The corruption they (Uber) instituted was just as bad as this anecdote you are alleging. How does replacing one set of elite corruption with another se

No instead they will call you before the trip and ask you where you are going and then cancel the trip after hanging up. If it is raining or the sun is out or the trains are busy or it is any of one a hundred random reasons - you will have

Thank you sharing that. It was lovely to read especially the part where you thank yourself, bought a smile to my face :) It's a great way to think about it.

I will echo the other comments on no upfront pricing. Even though this could be potentially useful for my team, I won't "contact" you for pricing. I am sick of having to deal with salespeople who want to know a ton of info ab
