Pick two and flip a coin.

When the coin is in the air, you will know which option you really want. Or you will go with what the coin has chosen, absolving you of the consequences of making the choice. "this restaurant sucked" "dont blame me, the coin picked it"

I would pay $10 for something to block those email subscription popups.

$15 to block the ones that have the cutesy and smug "no thanks" messages like "no thanks, I don't enjoy money saving tips"

subscribe to a news paper. The likely have an "arts and culture" section with things to do

Hire a nanny

Don't show an actual password in your examples unless you want hundreds of people using it.

Seems like other companies with far less money are able to do both.

How is calling someone's girlfriend a girlfriend offensive?

Your grade 1-12 teachers are, in some ways, paid to put up with your bullshit. They remind you about homework, listen you your excuses, etc. They understand that in many ways, you are still a child and that you do need help.

College professors (based on my experience and popular wisdom) are less likely to fill that "parenting" role. You are expected to be responsible and to take the initiative.

When you land a job, you are expected to perform. They expect that you will need help remembering to do your work, or to show up on time, or to be responsible for yourself.

Today, it seems, that the "college experience" is being overthrown by the PC police. This is what some colleges are teaching those entering the workforce:

Saying "Where are you from" is racist

Saying "America is a melting pot" is racist

Saying "Hey, can you guys help me look at this problem" is sexist\misogynist

Telling a woman in leadership “I love your shoes!” is bad

Referring to your co-worker’s girlfriend as “girlfriend” instead of “partner” is homophobic

And on and on and on.

And then these kids enter the workforce with an older generation who thinks the above list is absurd. There is going to be conflict and they older generation will wonder what happened to the youngins. They are incapable of living without finding ways to point to their victim hood or oppression.

They will be at your job soon. Publicly shaming you or reporting you to HR for using the wrong word or asking "Did you and your girlfriend do anything fun this weekend?"

note to readers: victimhood and oppression do exist and I am not trying to belittle the very real experiences of many people in our society.

in math, yes

in computers, yes and no.

Aren't the number of particles the deciding factor? If you had 100 particles, you couldn't give me exactly 1/3 of them.

They will bundle a killer app with it, just like steam did with half life 2.

Multiple people working on multiple things.

Tesla is trying to solve the car death problem, others are trying to stop deaths from super potent mexican heroin.

Both are noble pursuits and will save thousands of lives.

all the processing happens on the phone...

The quality of the "gift" is suspect if they cant be bothered to first create a brand for themselves.

A gmail address? Rebrand yourself first.

> Nexus phones are supposed to be the gold standard of android ...

> ... They're still better than any of the non nexus phones I've used.

Sounds like the OEMs still have a lot of work to do and that there are many ways in which they can improve the android experience.

Industry does not matter because it is the "company" that picks the tools so you will want to find a company that is capable of change.

Things that people do outside of work like mountain biking, yoga, paintball, cooking, whatever. There is lots of opportunity for ad revenue and affiliate links

I don't think putting "marketing" people into "developer" conferences is all that ground breaking or disruptive.

Not every problem needs a scalable grid with a nosql database. If you need that, .net may not be the place to look.

I am not lifelock fan, they have a terrible reputation: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-switch/wp/2015/07/21...

I agree, this is most likely a case of someone using the same email and password on multiple sites (like the 100 million account leak from LinkedIn)

I don't think it is currently possible for a stick of ram to hold a virus. Where are you getting this info?

There is a reason windows experts recommend full wipes: They know there are lots of places for nasty stuff to hide and it is not worth the time to try and find it all. Set your ego aside and wipe it.
