Problem is that when I'm driving I'm not paying attention to businesses around me. I've gotten a direction once like take left at Starbucks, how far is the starbucks away, is it the next left or the one after that? Now I nee

200 yards = 182 meters. This definitely seems like an issue, hope you had the chance to report it. My expectation from maps is generally a resolution of about 10m.

PC is a good way to keep certain amount of performance guarantees. It seems like you’re solution fits into the free tier, so probably a bad idea for you.

At least in the OP’s case it seems the requests are infrequent. I understand your point about the 11th request, but at that point what % of your customers are impacted. The tail latency is always an issue, PC is a good way to solve that.

The way I read this submission is: 1. Google is tracking you. They track you because they need this data to target better ads, this is how they make money. 2. The OP for this comment, says they use FOSS apps to get around Google’s tracking.

It's unbelievable that I'm getting downvoted for asking people to pay for software on a platform where a large % of users are involved with technology. No wonder opensource based businesses are dissatisfied with how they are treat

I hope you have recurring donations setup for all these FOSS apps. FOSS still means that developers need to eat.

I've been recently trying out the new Apple maps' turn by turn navigation. Some of the directions are almost human like - "Take a left at next traffic light" Must say makes driving directions easier to follow compared to

This is the problem with open source, anytime someone tries to submit a finished solution - someone will come out of the woodwork and blame them for not attributing enough. In this case the link exists, but it isn't in the favorable or

The problems with virtual rooms is that you can't have small breakout conversations naturally. In-person I can walk around a space and talk to small groups of people. On a virtual conference call, if I'm speaking everyone has to l

What you are talking about is Microsoft in the Balmer years. No focus on delivery, no focus on perfection, churning out half assed products. See where it got them? Lost out on mobile, lost out on Cloud, Playstation is still a better gaming

It tastes delicious and its super cheap. 36 cans at costco are about 10 dollars. I love having one after lunch or in the evenings when I'm unwinding. No calories, better than alcohol and the delight. The only thing is if I drink a lot

If an influencer owns a brand, then are all their posts ads? How does that work with Instagram's algorithms, will it suppress this content?

Nope, there are 2 parts of this problem: 1. What do customers perceive. 2. What does it cost to run this software for Netflix - Companies are continuously trying to improve this while maintaining or improving 1. Being done, is not what a te
