@alltrails When in the middle of a hike - is there a way to find the distance to the end of the trail - basically 'how much further'?

@flightradar24 The CSV file had one location per minute. Is higher fidelity (greater than one location per minute) available?

@flightradar24 Is there a way to get higher-fidelity playback of a flight w/ surrounding flights? There was a TCAS RA at flight levels, so it would be interesting to see a replay from each plane’s point of view.

This is a total class act! When a coworker leaves for a competitor -- with them well, ill will is not productive.
This might be F1, but it applies to any industry.

@zoom_us Feature request -- Make the menu bar icon change color if muted…. say, red if muted, white it unmuted.

Every company that has my email has contacted me. This is like GDPR on steroids! The parking lot at the airport emailed me!?!

I'm a nerd. Turns out I've been practicing social distancing since the 3rd grade.

@LifeOfBrianOC High temp over direct heat == grill. Low temp, indirect, long cook == BBQ. Eitherway is tasty!

@Quicken How to get rid of duplicate transactions — absolute bane of my Quicken existence. NEVER ENDING BATTLE!

Nik Gibson one of the original architects on VMWare Validated Designs. Brilliant mind and sense of humor, VVD wouldn’t be where it is today without him. While you left VMW years ago, you were always part of the family. The world is less without you. https://t.co/GROMrgQI3H
