I assume your drivers license is in your wallet. You are concerned about anonymized email?

Sorry my post was confusing.

Lyft had the wrong route (280 and longer) Google confirmed my suspicion that we took the shorter route (101) Lyft credited back regardless but it was good to know what really happened

Like many other comments, I like this and find it useful. Recently I took a Lyft ride late from SFO to home and it was late and I was tired and I didnt concentrate on the route taken by the driver but I was certain we took the 101. Later when I saw the charge, I was surprised to see the ride map showing me taking a roundabout way, heading on 280 and essentially doing a 70mile ride. I complained to Lyft and they refunded the money but I still wanted to know how I got home. Checked back on this and found that it was in fact a regular 101 ride home and I had proof just in case Lyft wanted it.

As others have mentioned, it is nice to look back at the trips I took and also share with others who might be visiting places where I have been in the past.

I interviewed for a Product Manager role at Google and my experience was awful. Put this things in perspective, I was a Director of PM managing a team at my current role and working a lot with customers, presenting in speaking engagements etc as part of my day to day.

I get into the interview and the person on the other side seems to know very little of my background. He says he is a PM and starts with how much is google's spend on storage for youtube on an annual basis. Knowing very well, I walk through assumptions like the average youtube video size, no of formats based on screen res and video quality etc etc and give him the logic. He pauses and says give me a dollar value. He doesnt want to understand the logic behind the calculations. Anyway, next few questions are more of the same.. code optimizations etc etc. After 3 or so questions, we were done. No, do you have any questions for me. No customer related discussions. No what I have done in the past and how I've been successful.

I feel like these kind of interviews are not judging what the person brings to the table, rather do you know what I'm gong to ask you and that's all that matters.

I always look for 2 things in any interview. Are you smart and motivated because nothing we do is rocket science. If you are smart and motivated, you will succeed. The other is, will I (and the rest of the team) get along with you. Teams need to work together and people who lack tact in personal skills end up being very difficult to work with.

The problem with Allo and Duo and other "chat" tools google provided never felt feature complete. If I'm on my mobile phone, I want one app to get messages regardless if it comes from the carrier or my peeps on google. Hangouts is the closest thing we have to this. Even hangouts doesnt fully integrate. I'm a Fi user and when use apps that send text to verify, the autoverify doesnt work with Hangouts as my default messaging app. It only seems to work with Android Messaging app. These kind of half baked reasons are why none of the google messaging apps really have taken off. I agree with the past comment that Google had the opp to just improve on Google Talk and build on it rather than create 6 different messaging apps.

Looks like Dashlane ($40) and Sticky Password ($20) are viable alternatives. Both are more expensive than Lastpass. Reading the reviews, these seem like the best so far. Anyone with experience on either of these they can share?

Sounds more like what you'd like to see rather than reality. Nothing in your article suggest what's in it for Apple or even more so, what's in it for Telsa. More like how cool would it be if this were to happen.

Very cool. A few suggestions

* touch screen would be nice * Screen resolutions would be nice * SSD drive options

Edit: Just notice DPI and other ways of sorting are available by clicking on the axis. Should make this more intuitive.

Nice work overall

I am <blank>???

You've gotta be kidding. everything mden said

I disagree. If that happens, a new solution will emerge to replace the telecoms. To name a few, decentralized DNS, open wifi, google fiber etc.

The one thing about the Roku I like a lot is the headset on the remote. I love that! I can be in a room with my headset and not disturb my wife sleeping and enjoy the show.

The lack on the headset jack on the remote on this for me would be a non-starter. Other than that, nothing to write home about. I can't see anything here that would make me switch from the Roku.

If only we could collect all this and give it to this guy

You are joking. All multimeters I've worked with have been yellow. And all multimeters look like ... em... multimeters.

slightly off topic but I'm looking to move away from Thunderbird as a mail client. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions. I use gmail but not online but without updates to tbird, thats becoming the bottleneck

Love it! Price?

I would argue drive is better. Not only does it have device syncing like dropbox but it seamlessly integrates with the google ecosystem. And now its much much cheaper.

In other news, Apple creates a toilet that wipes your behind. What will home depot do next?

(sarcasm) - use it!

This looks very good. I'll consider this for my next project.

A few things I really like 1. Applies to tables, lists etc 2. Nice progress indicator. This is missing in datatables and is a pain point in my current deployment. 3. stylized lists and charts. Very cool

what i didnt see 1. filtering. eg: find in column x where string not equal to blah 2. Searching specific column rather than entire table.

I apologize if this exists and I missed it. Overall, look great. Best wishes on this.
