Net positive for twitter. Net negative for Medium.

I think a major reason is still probably customer confidentiality. They've got to play it on the defensive.

Confused me there for a second.

shahzeb | 9 years ago | on: A curated list of talks about React Native

shahzeb | 9 years ago | on: Reasons not to use Firebase
The "MagicType" feature is actually very standard in the online customer service industry. If you've ever talked with Apple customer service, they could see what you were typing as you were typing it.
shahzeb | 9 years ago | on: Radiobox.css – Tiny set of CSS3 animations meant for your radio inputs
I think it's neat that they're all collected in one unified place. But if you look at the actual CSS behind the buttons [1] you'll realize it's not actually that "impressive," but rather something that anyone could implement. It's just basic CSS animation.

At least on the iPhone, Siri is only activated by the "Hey Siri" command if your phone is plugged in to charge.

Alright then. Time to crack open XCode and get to work on my incredibly mediocre game which will not even pull 0.000003% of these numbers. :-)

I'd put my money on Stanford.
shahzeb | 10 years ago | on: April Fool's day links
Yahoo! news posted an article saying that all Trader Joe's are closing: https://www.yahoo.com/style/trader-joe-close-stores-2017-104...
People on twitter actually bought it.
