HELP @GooglePayDevs : my account has been under review for a solid week. This has led to non-payment to my Google Fi cellphone account, which has made us switch cellphone plans so my wife (who was cut off) and I can make calls again. Plus, 2FA on non-google accounts fail. ->

Google One Files, YouTube Premium, and soon my son's watch, have been disabled. It has led to multiple hours on the phone with support, 'escalation' for a week, and the loss of a phone number I've had for over 20yrs.

This was all because I tried to send a Google photo store present to our friends in another state. Is there anyway you can help move the profile verification along? @GooglePay @GooglePayDevs

New office (literally 3 doors down the hallway)... But I tried working from home so they wouldn't get any care. Unfortunately my coworker @dgrochocki gave them water while I was away... So... I'll have to think of something else.

Today I learned that Shel Silverstein wrote the song "A Boy Named Sue" sung by Johnny Cash, and it makes total sense.

Great post explaining a common mistake when combining deferred loading and visual state managers in XAML. Thanks @NijsPieter blog.pieeatingninjas.be/2015…

Deferred Loading, mind the Visual State Manager

Update:After more than 2000mi, we've spent aprox $50 in charging (not including cost of home charger) Despite the car reporting avg 3.7mi/kwh we have really done ~4.5! (It may even be more since I'm being conservative due to lack of early data in April.) $50 for 2kmi!

Since we got an #ElectricVehicle we've spent < $10 since the 27th of last month. I've averaged 27mi / day... not including a big ski trip over 100mi away. Not having to go to the gas station is a big time save too! Pleased with the decision, & not afraid of range anymore.

Gen Xers: advice talking to parents: Keep Wikipedia up. When asked about Flag Day (implying country going to hell precisely cause 'young' people don't know history) This will help pretend they (as wiser boomer) know less about origins than a GenXer. Tx, modern technology!

I was also told cars with automatic transmissions are 'ruining young people's mechanical abilities'. (as opposed to manual shift).
