That would be my concern for this business. It'll disappear instantly when they do (and it's got to be a when, right?) but he's getting good value for moving quickly. Or maybe they get acquired.

More of the funding needs to go towards teacher salaries, in the first place. They start on $18 an hour here, you can make more in a call center with no responsibilities. Also, we spend a lot, however it's extremely unevenly distribute

Overwatch and Hearthstone have been hugely, hugely successful for Blizzard. The Diablo mobile game is going to be a license to print money too, PR snafus or not.

The recent electoral record in Louisiana doesn't exactly make it seem that high a priority for them.

That's why they are so cheap.

Absolutely. Learning about microtones was an absolute game-changer in my mental appreciation of music.

Absolutely this. Working on something else entirely is often the best way to resolve difficult logic problems that I get stuck on. Just throw it on the "subconscious pile" and let my brain chew away on it in the background.

Scottish guy in the US here, I've had to train myself out of this habit here (still working on it). Not always well received in the South!

Coffee shops gets me 3 results in my city, coffee shop gets me 4 results with the closest 45 miles away. Totally useless.

Would people continue to use it if that happened? I feel like that would defeat some of the point of the service.

My address also kicks off this issue in Apple Maps. I live on XYZ Street, it will send you off to XYZ Road on the other end of the city. I never reported it as I just immediately went back to Google Maps, but I'll do that now, good sug

I agree, that's a good point in many cases. Personally, I used my SE in combination with an iPad. The bigger phones made the tablet unnecessary, I can comfortable do what I need on my phone screen now.

I got the same question twice, answers that were right the first time (and obvious) weren't included the second time. Fun concept, though, it'd be interesting to play multiplayer.
