I'd hire a lawyer because I trust their legal knowledge. So without a bank, who's going to loan you money? Because unless you're donating pennies from hundreds of thousands of people, it's going to be an entity with a fa

The problem is that even though there's Play Store and App Store badges, to me, my brain subconsciously parses "this app is available for you" based on the existence of the home button in the mockup. I saw the home button, I

Random note: the fact that you're showing an iPhone device frame but using Android screenshots is one of those things that makes me unreasonably unhappy. I do like the idea of the app though.

Some comments: It's weird seeing the kid number pushed so hard on the dashboard. I'm in college, so that's not really a feature that applies to me. I'm not a fan of the date picker, an actual calendar popup would be bett

Documentation is a bit vague on it, but from what I can tell the last references to it are just USB3, USB2, and DisplayPort. However I'm not sure how the GPU in my Surface Book fits into that, as on the surface according to Device Mana

Not affiliated with Keybase: The whole point of Keybase is we don't have to trust Keybase (as a company). The proofs have to be independently verifiable, and an oAuth login wouldn't be.

So if Joe Shmo's router is compromised, then the ISP turns it off. How then is Joe supposed to learn that he's compromised by looking up symptoms, or download an antivirus to clean it up? It's a pretty solution to the problem
