A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

That mom-and-pop Seattle operation just can't catch a break.

You know I live in Seattle, and you're right. It's like a small hole in the wall operation, Jeff Bezos works out of a window serving up boxes of stuff.

It's not like they own entire neighborhoods or dominate the skyline or anything.

Must suck to run a little shack surrounded by all those used car dealerships between Mercer and Denny. That hasn't changed since the '90s, right?

Nope still just as sad and rundown. It definitely looks the same every time I go down there, there isn't always a new building going up for some large website.

Sweet! No doubt I can get some E-6 developed at Ivey Seright next time I'm in town.
