To be honest, I'm not sure I understand everything there's to know about net neutrality, but if Verizon and AT&T oppose it, it's, most likely, a good thing.

Not to mention that it just sounds like an excuse, the verbal equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and humming "la la la la" when a superior asks a challenging question. Accurately told by the author. Just dressing...

@kelly22: I liked the car finding app as well but I think the zombies, run! app isn't a good fitness guide. The better apps out of them are those which generate some interest.

Waterlogged? Meh. I really love the Sickweather! If I ever go to africa I'll be avoiding ebola just because I have this app that will inform me about locations of ebola!

I really like the work focused system and how most of the apps have access to the same data but only show the ones you need. I hope this experience would be better once most of the android products start running on lolli...

The use of adaptive AI has to be controlled. Just look at the waves of controversies the drone delivery system is getting, do you really think the media will go easy on this one?

I am not in favor of Lunar land rights, those granted by the FAA or anyone else. They just give us another piece of real estate to potentially fight over. There's plenty of that here on earth.

Fair enough - I'm sold on your middle ground. "I don't know, period" won't cut it. "I don't know, but I'll find out" mixes honesty and follow-up.

No mention, however, as to who owns the intellectual property created by the MS employees in the "Garage" endeavors. I'm curious as to the wording of the agreement/contract between MS and its "innovative" employees....

The value for business in creating a adaptive AI is that it is smarter than the "C suite" running the company in most instances.

Building a Mobile Business Mindset
The differences between mobile apps and conventional Windows clients, or even web applications, are far more than skin deep. Yes, the touch-versus-keyboard interface, APIs, and programming languages are new, but that’s arguably the easy part.
