Developer here - I created PrestoText after finding no suitable solutions during my previous startup. We needed an easy way to send SMS messages to a low number of people. All the other solutions we found were designed (and priced) for se

I wouldn't put a ton of weigh to the recent reports of 300 physicians asking the WHO to categorize it as an airborne virus. If it were truly an airborne virus it wouldn't be a very good one. The main source of transmission is cl

There is also vaporized hydrogen peroxide that is used to disinfect surfaces. Doesn't have the same shadow effect that UVC does.

I'm pretty aware of this space (I work in healthcare and did my Masters in contamination of hospital environments). There are a number of companies that sell these units specifically for patient rooms. There was one that include 4 se

I thought this was going to be like www.cameo.com and Rick Astley was really going to show up in your zoom calls. You'd pay $40 for a 2.5 minute cameo or something.

I tend to agree but online courses allows school to admit more people. Therefore the value of that limited resource should go down, along with the price. Although Harvard hasn't announced an increase in first year admittance, I suspe

I wonder if an overseas call centre employee is the one calling in the order, not the delivery driver?

I might have linked the wrong tweet, but the user says "Here is LinkedIn copying and pasting from my notes app “Bear”"

LinkedIn is actually copying the clipboard while that user types in a different app. https://twitter.com/DonCubed/status/1278757201310388225

This looks really cool. It reminds me of a tool called Storyline that was basically a WYSIWYG for Alexa skills. They shut down the tool and went enterprise I believe. It was quite fun to play around with and make skills. Your tool looks

There was a popular blog post awhile ago where a guy wrote a script to buy a random item for $0.99 everyday. It would automatically get sent to his house and so he was always getting surprise deliveries since the script would decide what t

In the twitter video Tik Tok is pasting from Instagram though. I also don't know why Tik Tok would be looking for text on the clipboard (to be fair I've never used Tik Tok though).

Are you just comparing the delivery fees and other app added fees? Or are you comparing the menu prices as well? Your intention seems to be to save the user money and also help the restaurant, but if you are actually just showing the lowe

People may misinterpret what 'remote' means and just how bad the internet situation is. My father lives 45 minutes away from Toronto and until he spent a ton of money on a line-of-sight antenna a year ago, he basically had dial-u

The only features that look unique (I'm really only comparing Gmail vs Hey) is the Focus and Reply, the File navigator and the Feed. The rest are all easily done with filters/labels or already exist in Gmail. The others could be

WH response was that it's a symbol used by antifa. "“The inverted red triangle is a symbol used by Antifa, so it was included in an ad about Antifa. We would note that Facebook still has an inverted red triangle emoji in use, whic

Not to mention you already could accomplish this by blocking ads from those specific parties... just like you could block ads from a company.

When you see a bad ad on TV, you might talk about it with your spouse or kids. When you see a bad ad on Facebook, you argue with 1000 strangers. I deactivated my Facebook account 6 months ago or so for precisely that reason. I was in a &q

Next time just tell them you left one in your last rental and it might be in lost and found (unethical life tip). I left a Canadian National Park Pass in a rental car once ($120/yr, covers admission to park). I went to the rental coun

I think the problem is the franchisees that operate the locations. There are a million stories out there of scamming people. Especially at airport locations where they know the person returning the vehicle is likely to be in a rush and no

Does etsy have add-ons/integrations like Shopify does? For example on Shopify you can integration with printful and the orders automatically get set to printful for fulfillment. Edit Never mind, I see your response to another question
