   What language did you use to build this? What about the UI? Also, I tried to login to the application with Google and got "Authorization Error -- Error 403: access_denied -- The developer hasn’t given you access to this app. It’s curre

   Do people still get excited for these smartphone OS updates? I remember a couple of years ago I couldn't wait to see what the new features were. Now I don't think I've changed the way I use my phone for several years.

    Also, in the U.S. there seem to be an extremely large number of people who accuse their political opponents of being child abusers, so that might make sense for Google from a purely strategic perspective.

    If the Supreme Court upholds the Jarkesy v. SEC ruling, would that completely void the SEC's ability to do anything about these kinds of scams?

    I have to say, as a kid, I watched my productivity going from 286 to 396 to 486dx to Pentium just skyrocket. I went from writing config.sys & autoexec.bat files just to get my games to run to running mIRC while my mom was screaming at m

    At the same time, I think that more than 90% of people that I know have absolutely no idea how to read a URL, and are not going to learn. I think that just showing the domain for them wouldn't be so bad. I don't think I'm the

    For decades plastic was sent to East Asia to be "recycled" but recently even those countries have refused to import it. Since then we've seen western governments freaking about about plastic waste.
