Well, if we’re going to have this discussion; can we also get rid of ‘please’? Hear me out on this one. Why have we selected that the default form of any question is not the polite one? ‘May I have a cookie?’ is not as polite as ‘May I please have a cookie?.’ Why don’t we just all agree that the default case is the…

If this is true, and the CIA can beat WhatsApp’s end-t0-end encryption, and the Trump Administration’s leak(s) really do use WhatsApp to protect their identity, that has some interesting implications.

Well, you have to keep them from getting covered in dust, but yeah they could last a long long time.

Really? 50 is the maximum number of reps you can do (apparently at anything )?

Bummer.

Well, if you don't see the benefit of being able to turn on your sensors, bust our a workout without even having to count a rep; a write a single thing down in your journal while you are working out, and still be able to have a whole host of useful analytics to look at when you are done: then tools designed for that…
