Tumblr CEO David Karp reported to Yahoo’s Simon Khalaf, founder of the analytics platform Flurry (also acquired by Yahoo). In an anecdote from an unnamed former employee, Khalaf walked into one team meeting about Tumblr saying the popular blogging platform was “going to be the new PDF.”

“It didn’t make any sense,” the employee recounted. “We’d walk away scratching our heads.”

I’m with them on this. That makes zero sense.

While I'm generally not one for this sort of thing, I feel like comparing him to someone with cerebral palsy (the origin of "spaz") is a bit harsh.

At least most of them try to be nice people.

Same here. Aside from one of the injections (brief stinging/pinching pain in the roof of my mouth), the entire process was painless and I didn’t even need painkillers afterwards.

That said, I can see how there’s a lot of room for different experiences between countries, different orthodontists/dentists, and even between individual patients depending on which tooth and how bad the decay was.

Waze is quite a different experience than Google Maps when driving, so it's made sense to keep them as two separate apps.

Google Maps is "I want to get from point A to point B in a normal way."

Waze is "I want the most aggressively quick way; no back street is too small for me."

I feel like OP has gone too far with the editorialised headline this time, as the only thing that's happening at this point is switching Waze over to use the standard Google ad platform rather than their custom system.

Regular movement results in regular movement.
