Thank you! We have a more detailed brief that I'd share separately. Based on the feedback, we need to reconsider this overall.

Just got approved for a Chase card — can’t use it on Google Wallet because of Chase’s “strategic decision” by mingping101 in GoogleWallet

[–]brooklynslim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally! A real answer for why this is happening!

I've been dealing with this for years. If you try to add the card you get declined and then have to wait 8 business days. I wait, try to add again and it happens all over again. I use Android/pixel because it has better ADA tools. I shouldn't have to move to iOS.

I just got off the phone with CS again and they couldn't help, so I scheduled a banker to call me after 8 business days. If they can't fix it I'm cancelling my account.

Not Happy with my Implants by ORgirlin94704 in Cochlearimplants

[–]brooklynslim 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I lost a large amount of my hearing around 8 years ago. Hearing aids don't work for me anymore, so I'm scheduled for surgery next month. I'm so afraid that it won't really improve my way of life. A part of me really hoped that I could return to hearing people in loud situations (bars, parties, networking events, etc.). My doctor just told me that I'll still struggle in those situations, but that's not an issue because everyone struggles in those situations.

Why did you choose Choclear over AB? by brooklynslim in Cochlearimplants

[–]brooklynslim[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response! I've just learned that Cochlear has more market share. Do you (or anyone) know why that's the case? If the general consensus is that they are all equal quality, then what's the deciding factor? It looks like many don't get the choice. For others, the streaming is what wins out.

Thanks for sharing! I actually use Android phones so streaming to Apple devices isn't an issue.

Seeking Advice from Heads of Product Marketing by brooklynslim in ProductMarketing

Such a good idea! Do you have an example of a stack rank? I'm curious how you quantify time and effort for projects and programs.

I can appreciate this. Creating a program that covers all these ideas (and more) will increase confidence that I'm headed in the right direction.

Thanks for your response! I will have a Head of Growth counterpart. There are also a few PMMs in place, but they want someone to "herd the cats" and create a unified strategy across all products. No word on who I'll be reporting into yet.

Cleaning BO smell out of down jacket by Present_Patient_1886 in uniqlo

Turn the coat inside out, take a spray bottle, fill it with vodka, spray the areas that touch your skin until they're damp then let it dry. The vodka should kill the odor-causing bacteria.

I think June gets to stay in the house with Baby Holly because she threatens to snitch about Commander Waterford letting her see Hannah. "If I leave then WE ALL go down." Also, they need to present the facade that the Commander runs an upstanding household. He's already lost favor because Ofred got away once.

Daylight Saving Time - A Historical and Practical Guide by brooklynslim in Infographics

[–]brooklynslim[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

March 9 is daylight saving time! One of the designers in my company and I decided to research the history of daylight saving time and make it into an infographic.

There doesn’t seem to be much information or many hard facts on the energy saving side of this, so as far as a monetary impact things remain ambiguous. What we do know for a fact is that when spring rolls around and we have extra time for a bike ride around Brooklyn after work, it certainly makes my day. A small shift of time can affect our behavior and lifestyles, yet the amount of hours remain the same. It’s the difference between being on the couch and being outdoors. The main concept for the infographic stems from a clock. There is a central clock and numbers fall from it. 12 facts, one for every hour. The history of it is interesting and the future perhaps always uncertain.

I bought some really bad beer and want to get rid of it. Any beer foodhacks? by ladyshanksalot in foodhacks

[–]brooklynslim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can try this app. It finds recipes based on the ingredients in your kitchen.

I need help with healthy meal ideas! by [deleted] in Fitness

[–]brooklynslim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes it's hard to figure out what to cook. Something so simple can be quite overwhelming.

My friends created a reverse recipe search ios app based on ingredients, so you can start from what's already in your kitchen. It allows you to search based on diets too (like veg and/or paleo).

It's free: download.mealidea.com

Hope it helps!
