Apple Pay et al work without signal. If the payment network is down then cards will also be declined. Increasingly we’re seeing contactless ATMs (in Europe) too so that’s a last resort.

I've spoken to Nest support and have been told that "this is because of the migration" (I assume, and the article confirms, this is to Google). What do we do when a feature of a product is removed at will after purchase?

The article suggests that the detectors will detect 2G, 3G and 4G usage, but will recognise if a bluetooth hands-free kit is in use. This sounds like complete snake oil to me, please could someone explain if this is possible?

I built a platform that does this a year ago, using a combined stack of human and AI (Comouter vision) - it’s somewhat in maintenance mode because I haven’t had time to work on selling it, but there’s a version of Paris on the home page: h

That's happened though. I live in London, where black cabs are the de facto standard. They should be one of the examples of the most organised taxi 'companies' in the world - brilliant brand, effective organisation and a te

Are you focussing on the word 'focussed'? That is a correct spelling of the word and if memory serves, the New Yorker have written about how their style guide requires it.

Absolutely not true. Supermarket own-brand has been around for years and years, along with department store own-brands. The original brand sells based on brand reputation and (perceived) quality of product. This is exactly the same.
