The questions have already been answered, yeah? Medical marijuana should be treated like any other medication. Recreational marijuana should be treated just like any other legal drug aka alcohol or sugar that employees consume. If you can&#

Wow. I do not believe changes to terms after purchase should be allowed unless required by law. We need a lemon-like law for consumer electronics. Also, I believe it is important to not buy connected devices and appliances that are not ente

There is a saga going on here between Apple’s HR and a Sr. Manager [1]. I recommend the rabbit hole. The back and forth between the two parties is enough to give you a headache. 1. https://twitter.com/ashleygjovik/statu

Living in Chattanooga, and watching as TN politics continue to leave me dumbfounded, I've come to believe that no matter where you are in this country, rural is rural and urban is urban. Upstate NY is just like rural TN. Sure, the stat

It would be wonderful if every person or family had a suitable home before we allowed surplus housing to be used as a commodity. However, we don't live in that world, at least not yet. And while I am generally anti-rent-seeking, if we

This is a use case we would have, too - the ability to, for example, create a unique payment link that can be used exactly once or for a specific customer.

I absolutely agree with your statement. Anecdotally, the majority of targeted ads I see are for services or products I already use or pay for! That makes no sense to me. It does not drive loyalty, it simply annoys me. I’d opt out in a secon

I feel like this is no different than using multiple web browsers to access my own generated content. The app uses your device, your electricity, and your credentials. The API is built using your tax money. I don’t see a problem.
