Agreed! And, i would call such a site/portal/etc., something like "Awesome Pain"...I guess it could serve as a repo of anything from: * startup ideas... * to gotchas for devs to think about fixing for their respective a

Yeah, nowadays i try to buy many things that are "not smart" in order to avoid what you experienced with the smart scale. That being said, i wonder if what you're asking for is more on the warranty side, rather than security&

At a glance, changing which side of the road to drive on seems not so big and complex...maybe its jarring, but it didn't sound so big, complex, and audacious...But then upon further thought, there are tons of big and not-so-big conside

Wow! Even the renaming of streets - which yes, would need physical work to swap out the physical street signs - seems to far fetched to be done nowadays! But, that's a pretty cool factoid; thanks for sharing!

The whole of it is sad...I mean, that fact that all of us beginning at a certain age need to begin to activate some life hacks is sad in so many ways. I wonder also, what did our peers 1 or 2 or 3 generations ago do at a certain point in th
