It would be a huge usability improvement to have autocompletion of valid words. Currently, you have to type each word, and wait to see if it is rejected/removed. Instead of waiting for each word to be typed, why not show acceptable wor

While Google timeline might be in the same ballpark for geologging, it is definitely not the same use case as having a newsfeed of check-ins by yourself & friends. Google timeline seems closer to 4sq's Pilgrim, both which are not a

I don't know the numbers, but I have anecdotal experience. Most people seem to be not using 4sq. It varies a lot by location, and NYC seems like it would have the highest user penetration. Out of the registered users, a subset of 4sq u

I always opt-out. Kudos to you for being able to stop flying soon. I don't fly that often, but flying is always the most painful part of traveling. It's amazing how bad the flying experience has turned into.

Great read about the relationship between franchisees and the franchisor (Dunkin’ Brands). There are lots of benefits (and costs) to being a large franchisee network. Also, the chart at the bottom is revealing: most of their sales come from

In my anecdotal experience, the price of asthma inhalers (Albuterol) have gone up significantly, which sucks since they have a limited shelf-life & it's common to have multiple (car, office, bedroom, etc). Like epipen-countered all

Is there any special consideration/feature to help prevent streamers from sharing secrets (keys, tokens, pw, etc)? Sharing secrets is easily done by accident and can go unnoticed by the streamer.

In terms of UI stuff, how do you find a tab among a thousand? When the tab page title shrinks and all I see is favicon, I feel lost.

I agree with you. Instead of optimizing for battery life by constantly checking & adjusting my charging, I'd rather live my life focusing on other things. What I do is super simple: plug it in whenever possible.

Nice work Google. It has two 2 USB Type-C (vs 1 on the new Macbook) and 2 USB 3.0 ports. This is the way to introduce USB-C and provide practical value to the customer (vs selling $79 adapters).
