Imagine you have a private chef who makes your dishes exactly how you would do it for yourself, in your own home. I like cooking, I’m fairly good at it, but this would be a hard option to beat

So not much difference to corporate IT projects

A lot of stations there have interesting art

I had a “similar” thing with a British colleague.

We have been working together for months already, then once he made a joke of aiming to be the first POC James Bond. That was the point I realized he’s not white. I of course seen that he had a darker (brown) skin tone, but I didn’t pay any attention to it. Turns out his parents are from South Asia.

This is very dangerous. Time to remove regulations for collision warning systems on airplanes, so dangerous maneuvers like this don’t happen in the future

Dialing into the morning standup during commute:

Lot of US leftists and liberals hate guns, as a reaction to the right’s obsession with them.

It is a stupid and dangerous reaction, because they give up their means of self-defense against far right militias and a fascist government.

Same with my wife. I even have it set up for my mother, so I know she’s safe. I don’t understand what the big deal is, as you say it’s a safety and convenience feature, it doesn’t mean you spend the day looking at the app to see where the other person is.

It’s not something I would do in a casual or new relationship, but if I’m with somebody for years, I value their safety over my (perceived) privacy.

And for the people who think this would prevent or bust cheating: lol. They can just turn it off and complain of bad reception, or leave their phone in their car, while they “shop at the mall”. Or just get a second phone. This app is not a substitute for trust

Regarding tech privacy: it’s not like other apps on your phone are not already tracking, I doubt anybody has their GPS constantly turned off. They already know your location, this one feature doesn’t make a difference.
