I'm not really sure what Uber's problem with the bill is but I doubt it has to do with the insurance require since that already existed in some form and will not come out of Uber's pocket.

I'm guessing it's $5000 business permit, requiring an agent in the state, upfront fairs, the driver name, and vehicle license plate appearing in app prior to the rider getting in the car.

My wife the business woman {who does more math than I do on any given day} has bailed out and now I'm only one left to help my son with his freshman algebra because "Algebra!?!?!?"

Anyway I found very quickly that the key to helping him understand algebra is to pry the cell phone from his hands and turn it off.

I have 3 smart TVs, PS4, Xbox, 4 Smart phones, 2 PCs, 2 Tablets, a wife and 2 sons that still live at home that use them all constantly. I may not need a huge connection for any one thing but I've noticed I have more and more connected devices. When my sons were little we had one PC with dial up I imagine after the kids are grown and move out the number of devices will drop but I have no intention of going back to dial up.

Now that they mention it.. It's one our company ideals that we promote from within. I've seen a lot of good sys admins get thrust into management and fail or leave. I've also seen nontechnical people try to manage IT departments only to find their employees ready to drive them off with pitch forks when they are unable to understand what is going on.

From the description of how the sensor works you would think that scarring, skin discoloration, and tattoos could all be a problem but it was not spelled out. {maybe extremely hairy wrists too}
