I have seen Whole Foods change from a welcoming, organized, on-trend, curated grocery store to something different. I frequent Whole Foods in the midwest and west coast. There is more homogenization, empty aisles, different employees, and d

Why is this flagged? Advertisers calling out Facebook is a big shift in the industry. Two years ago, agencies talked about their love for Facebook's people-based marketing.

I see. I don't mean to offend but wanted to better understand the situation. It makes sense to me that Chinese folks want access to Google's search engine, and the only path forward is for Google to work with the government. From

Can someone help me understand why Google would create such a solution for the Chinese government? Is it money (does Google need it)? How else does Google benefit? Does this mean other search engines like Bing will follow suit?

You are right about putting myself in their shoes + I am not providing the guidance they need. For what it is worth, it helped to talk it through here.

Yes, I told them where we see areas for improvement. They have not taken any action. In our 1:1s they say something like, I still looking into it or I haven't decided what I want to do. My gut tells me they are not interested or motiva

I do not want that. I agree people should not work just for work. What I want is to see an engaged employee. If they have lets say 40% additional bandwidth, would you be fine with that time being completely free? Or would you want an employ

I agree with you the Bolt is a good value. I am concerned with your comparisons. A car that accelerates 0-60 in 4.6 seconds is in a different league than a car that does it in 7 seconds. Sure it is not a 2x increase, but these aren't c

After all these years, I finally picked up an iPad. It is an iPad Pro 10.5 with the smart keyboard. I like the device, its fast and has good utility for photo editing, like Affinity photo. Should I expect the device to slow down with each i

Facebook, similar to Google uses their pixel to cookie you. See here: https://www.facebook.com/business/a/facebook-pixel . If you advertise on Facebook, the pixel is part of your site. The pixel does not have any v

I second this. The T430 CPU increase is worth it. I recently went with an x230 over an x220. I quite like the x230 (T430) keyboard.

No sarcasm here. It took me about two weeks to adjust to the movement/speed curve of the TrackPoint. It then took me another two months to reach sufficient proficiency to bypass a mouse and trackpad. I am sure some folks could adapt fa

It does appear that all of the replacement options are low profile of some kind. There is an "ultra low" option. http://www3.lenovo.com/us/en/accessories-and-monitors/keyboa...

I can't believe all these years of typing on newer Macs (even the new pro), Surfaces, Dells, Gateways, etc. I never owned a ThinkPad until recently. The keyboard on my yoga 370 has unveiled a new world of typing. The TrackPoint is a ga

Do want to add that the S8 has wireless charging. I had a Nexus 6 and a Note 5, both with wireless charging - I can't go back. It is one those changes that impacts how I use the phone. I never need to plug into anything.

I recently made the switch from Surface Pro 4 to a ThinkPad 370 (like a smaller X1 Yoga). I was close to pulling the trigger on the X1 Carbon, but wanted a touch screen. Before the Surface, I had MacBooks and iMacs. Biggest takeaway, I love
