I found the docs pretty minimal as well. Ironic since they specifically called out Google for shallow docs in the description.

Usually what this means is some small little team within those companies either signed up for a trial (using their @fortune.com email address) or they use it for some small little project. Pretty common marketing technique for startups. Not

"social media has both positive and negative effects on people, and these average out to fairly near zero" Is that the right way to think about it though? Opiates have many positives (medical pain management) and many negatives (d

Malls provide a few benefits and attract some key shoppers in my opinion. Many malls near me open at 5am to "walkers". Basically seniors looking for a place to walk indoors. They often populate the food court once it starts to ope

"the majority of the evidence seems to point towards it not causing large well-being problems." I can't see how this is true. Anecdotally, everyone I talk to, and you most comments in this thread (and any other thread) is ful

I agree, seems like overkill especially if you need a person to manage the "dogs". Instead I'd create a track around the airport and have a "dog" like train that just travels along the track autonomously. You could

I feel like that is an old trope from many many years ago. The site has added millions of users since then. It seems like the second post on any page is an ad now. They must be filling their inventory.

Traffic. It's top 3 visited site in the US, that's worth a lot of money. It's easier to increase revenue of each user than it is to build a new social network. Someone will figure out how to increase revenue per user.

Wouldn't that mean that you can have a friend do the pump, and you do the dump? Sounds like the guy in the original article did both and therefore wouldn't be saved by that Texas ruling.

The Apple App Store (and Google Play Store) have a fairly large barrier to entry. To develop an app, you needed to actually code one. Learning objective C, Swift or Java isn't easy and therefore you had to have some skill to gain entr

I think you would want to pack it with anything on the return trip to the factory to pick up more blades. Otherwise it's just an empty trip, might as well move some large equipment to help offset the cost.

Why not water - I wonder if it's because it's in Finland and 6 months a year you have to prevent the water from freezing.

I don't have access to the article, but what makes them so pro-crime? You may be over simplifying things. If you set up some bait cars and catch some thieves, they will probably just be replaced with other low level men. This is likely

Having your grocery list always next to your fridge implies that you will be wearing this most of the day. Otherwise, why not just keep a list in Notes app or an actual physical list on the fridge?

If that's the case, is targeting rich developed countries with efficient waste management and pickup the best approach? I live in a very clean, North American city. I rarely see plastic bags blowing around. We have residential garbage

Ask your boss for a leave of absence. You'll have the security of returning to your job, but will also have the time to dedicate to your new project. You say you can't support not having a job, but if push came to shove, could you
