He was nudged off his mortal coil too soon.

As a successful VC, this is the core of my investment thesis.

*System* or Method and Mechanism for Asynchronously Pushing People’s Buttons on a Packet-Switched Mobile Network

Interesting. Just for context Autonomy (now part of HP) built this cool app called Kenjin back in the 90s it used Bayesian inference applied to your browsing session to suggest content.

I worked for a research firm that did research for Nokia Design, large scale immersion sessions in exotic locations. One project the deliverable was a set of cards 11" x 8" in a custom box. Each card depicted an insight from the research. I think Nokia Design were charged 25k for the production of these cards. For me this was peak-insanity and two years later Nokia imploded.

Exactly

Precisely this. Many people have taken it as a sign of further lawlessness in SF. When actual fact it is young impulsive people acting on impulse with fireworks within easy reach.

I tend to find this holds true 100% of the time.

private Boolean doorway_effect(Boolean tall_person, Boolean carrying_heavy_item, Boolean carrying_hot_drink, Boolean doorway_low)

Ryanair sells spare bolts to passengers after check-in. Its a new service.

For those interested: the meetup is at 7pm every Monday at noisebridge, 272 capp street, san francisco. It is always an evening well spent.

A use case for what we built is if you have a customer list from Salesforce and a customer list from Hubspot (or another CRM system) - these lists might have been entered manually to each application. As a result they are not 100% the same where they should be the same. Robomerge lets you reconcile one list against another accounting for misspellings, different abbreviations, etc. This is not an easy thing to do in Excel / Google Sheets so we built something to do it quickly, reliably and securely.

We are planning to allow people to copy and paste lists in...hadnt thought about a google sheets add in....
