Very cool! Index my Google Email, Drive, and Calendar. "Find the receipt for that TV I bought from Best Buy 7 years ago."

It's far more efficient to search and subscribe to accounts that produce content you're interested in. Consider disliking things to help the algorithm figure out your interests. Long hold on any video, tap "Not Interested".

> According to a friend

I wouldn't trust this. Speaking as a resident of Austin, there's several OG Austinites that are mad about all the change. Sounds like FUD to me. Point to a source please!

> Lots of people will be commuting from Round Rock.

By the time Tesla reaches critical mass in Austin, Project Connect may very well be on its way to construction of the Orange and Blue lines. This establishes a light rail train from North Austin to the Airport. Given Round Rock is north of Austin, and the Airport is nearly adjacent to the Tesla complex, this could be a suitable option for commuters. Or easily extended with additional investment.

Though, for white collar jobs, I would expect multiple Tesla offices in Austin to work around this problem. They already have office space leased on opposite ends of the city.

Tech Ridge is a great location that is accessible from Round Rock and Cedar Park. Apple, GE, 3M, Home Depot, and Blue Apron all have offices in this area.

After using my Nespresso exclusively for about 2 years, I've recently added a Keurig to the mix. I agree with you... It is convenient to order Nespresso pods, but I'd rather pick up pods at the grocery store. Additionally, I mistakenly purchased a Nespresso Vertuo, which has a much more limited selection of pods compared to the original Nespresso pod design. The Keurig has so many pods, my local grocery store has a huge section of Keurig options.

I was sort of expecting the car to have exploded, parts strewn about, and the steering wheel missing. Nope, just a check engine light.

"Catastrophic Failure" sounds a bit dramatic.

100% agree - hiring a trainer was the best investment in my weightlifting journey. Sure, you can watch videos and try to nail proper form, but when you hit the gym floor solo, nobody is going to correct you.

I think this is a great acquisition for Mailgun. IMO, the biggest pain point for implementing Mailgun is that backend developers don't want to manage email templates, deal with email client compatibility, or manage A/B testing within a backend codebase. This acquisition should fix that disconnect by allowing the marketing team to perform these tasks via the Mailgun control panel.

I don't have any science to back up this, just an opinion. Epuffer is like a conversion product. Once you try it, you likely invest in better equipment. This is what happened to me... Started with a cheap gas station stick, then quickly upgraded to a decent set up. Was able to get my dad to stop smoking by buying him a cheap puffer to test it out. Now he has a full set up.
