So there is no more 'Plus' version? That was the sweet spot for many - non-pro pricing, yet the same large screen as the pro max. RIP

Has anyone noticed how many Crypto rooms are currently on Clubhouse? Mostly led by paid clubhouse admins, trying to pump up crypto and who always have a extra stash to 'buy the dip'. This entire scenario smells of a scam led by companies like A16Z (investor in Clubhouse and other Crypto companies) and other whales like Musk, who have been playing with these coins/token prices since last year.

Peer pressure is real among kids aged 8-22 (yes, that's a huge range but that's what is). You can stop your kids all you want, but then they will find ways to experience what you have deprived them of, and that will be catastrophic for their development and relationships in general. I'd like some child growth specialist to chime in, but I believe this dynamic won't be good as parents are a safe haven for kids and if kids think parents are not letting them have something that all the other kids have, it might affect them longterm.

That huge picture of the woman is a big design miss. Replace it and use the Real Estate to display the features (bulletted)

Exactly. If you have anything more than $10m in the bank and are still not 30, you'll be too naive NOT to take more risks (considering you don't plan to touch the $10m in the bank).

I agree. The first couple of times that I tried to find about App.net, I got lost in the Social values listed on their page and trying to figure out what each app does and how are third parties benefitting. I believe if Web Savvy users like us are having a hard time 'getting it', it's a lost cause for people who use 'Whatsapp' and are persuaded to use 'Whisper for App.net'

Bought the 16GB successsfully. Took 2 mins. I believe the 'Sold Out' news in the morning drove more customers curiously to the Google Play website, thus letting them buy it today even if they wanted to wait. No one wants a supply issue like the iPhone 5. As I thought, Google is way smarter than Apple to be prepared for high volume sales on it's platform.

Well played, Google.

16gb model said 'In Stock', I added to cart and the message says 'There was a problem with your order' with a big blue button saying 'GO SHOPPING!'

I would expect better E-Commerce management from Google, who claims to have the brightest people working for it.

That is basically it. I basically limit most of my heavy ready during the daylight and the iPad is great for finishing up a couple of chapters before bedtime...

Would anyone happen to know how much 'exit bonus' these MIT/Stanford CS Grads get once a company is sold?

40% of them will start their own companies once their non-competes expire.

So who has been running Google since the last 13 years?

Very true. Since Google makes Chrome, which is excellent on the desktop, there's no excuse to let us deal with the 'Browser'. Android has always been a 'work in progress' and it's been too long now.

You should give Dolphin Browser a try. The best mobile browser. Period.
