The centerpiece to Dial is a voice assistant named AneedA. As Mr. i.Am explained to The Sun, “The name AneedA is like Anita but modified because you use it when you ‘need’ something.” Get it?

So there you go. In a demo posted by The Telegraph, Will.i.am can be seen—kind of disinterestedly—asking “AneedA listen to Kanye West”

maybe. if apple is nice enough block out rooms.

i went to a conference in burlinglame outside of sf once, and sf is a huge improvement even if there are other people there and weird smells

the parc 55 in sf is right at 5th and market and while there are a lot of "undesirables" around there between moscone and that hotel there's also every other goddamn thing in the world including a giant mall, a bunch of retail flagship stores, restaurants, a target, a few bars, etc. plus all the best food is in the "bad" area
