Are you Wing Chun practitioner? If you are, really good name :)

I have been using Waze for a couple of years and I turn it on for the same route to get my daughter to school in the morning and back home through traffic.

Recently, their routing algorithm has gotten so bad that I am on the verge of discarding it and probably try HERE maps.

The issues are

1) There was a railroad removal which block the road for several weeks. Waze didn't detect it and I arrived about 15 minutes later. I went home and tried to edit the map and to my surprise, I couldn't do it now whereas I was able to edit the maps once upon a time.

2) Recently, it has routed me to another supposed faster route to my daughter's school. I took that route once and we were late for school. From then on, I took the route which I am familiar with (which incidentally was what Waze had always been showing me till recently) and I keep seeing the ETA dropping. The ETA for the my regular route is about 5 minutes faster than the new Waze suggested route which is about 35 minutes

Shoe Dog - Phil Knight

I read this book based on the recommendation of Bill Gates. It was one of the best books I have read in a while

Not necessary. Though it is quoted "an umbrella costs the company 60 yuan ($8.82 USD) each to replace"

It doesn't mean they are going to replace it. The 60 yuan probably factor in cost like manpower etc rather than just the cost of the umbrella.

So like some of the readers pointed out, it could possibly be a good way to sell umbrellas whilst crying out wolf that they are losing money as a way to prevent copycats

I was thinking along that line too! I have only really heard of Bill Gates after Windows 3.1 came out

Norton Utilities 8.0 and Norton Commander.

I loved the DiskEditor which enabled me to recover lost files by manipulating the FAT table, hack byte codes to bypass copy protection in the days when copy protection was done by reading in bad sectors in floppy disks.

Norton Commander for the ease of use to navigate file system in DOS days. I use TotalCommander now which is the best $40 I ever spent.
