Tumblr issues apology, textbook customer service
Admit the problem, tell them why it won’t happen again, apologize. It’s refreshing when a service exhibits humility. Makes me a fan. Big fan of Tumblr.
staff:
One of our service providers just suffered a major network outage, reducing our web capacity significantly for the past two hours.
We’re frustrated with the amount of time it took to resolve this issue, but are more...

FAT/NTFS
from the drafts folder…
Today I learned FAT can’t handle files larger than 4GB. Partitioned a drive to FAT. Couldn’t drag a 14GB vid file into the partition. Apparently, NTFS can handle >4GB. Opened Parallels, re-formatted new partition to NTFS. Tried to drag vid file in. No luck. Parallels won’t allow move files onto an external drive connected to Windows. Unmounted...

The author missed the point.
The entire way data moves between buyers, sellers, MLS, aggregators and agents is a hot complex mess.
Look past the internal ‘study’ cited by Zillow and a few entirely unreliable RE agent observations and focus on the money.
This battle rages because the 6% listing commission is a rich fat obscene number. Don’t let anyone tell you it’s...

How to Remove Your Google Search History Before... →
My generation is one of the last to remember a time when we didn’t have to worry about managing personal privacy. Are you worried about this? Do you delete search history? Is there value to keeping it?
I’m tempted to wipe the slate clean but I’m also deeply curious what my search history reveals about me, my character, my interests, etc.
Probably just let it ride and hope...
