Honestly I feel like this issue is a combination of technology and culture. As our technology has advanced, our perception as a culture has changed because now instant-gratification has become a reality. Not only that but as we move to mobile devices we continue to seek immediate results and companies that previously failed are now succeeding even though they are commodities of one-another. Not to mention your point that consumers are finally becoming more comfortable with doing everything online, compared to previous times.

Wow this is awesome thank you so much! I am barely getting into front-end development but this article is truly inspiring. I will definitely mirror your methodology when attempting to truly grasp the back-end side and I think it will be a great experience. I am firm believer that being able to teach others, is a vital part to truly understanding the material and your thought process along the way.

Really cool article I found it pretty informative. I think the Uber/On-Demand Taxi Service was a revolutionary idea but the question is how successful will it be in the long term, and how much power does uber truly have over controlling the price? I think they've taken a risky route and may be susceptible to failure without some type of change.

Yeah this is what I'm referring too. It would be cool to have an intuitive app that could actually differentiate between bench press and shoulder press. I like to lift weights doing various exercises and typically once I am done I will go to google drive and insert it on a google spreadhseet.

Cool article it sounds counterintuitive when you're thinking of the term "Global Warming". Unfortunately the majority of people equate "Global Warming" to the Earth becoming "Globally Warmed" which is the opposite of actuality. Global Warming is linked to more extreme weather overall and this article presents an interesting point.

Yeah it is fascinating how people refuse to acknoweledge ignorance. Personally I view ignorance in a positive connotation because it promotes growth and learning which are vital assets to prevent stagnation and allow innovation to emerge.
