Oooh ok, I remember seeing that and it kind of makes sense. I was probably confusing it withe the similarly sounding social thingy. So they might've been overvalued at IPO (whoa) but at least they have something going on there - unless the upcoming chip & pin is going to be impractical to implement, in which case they're hosed too, I guess.

Er, chip and pin has been around for a good decade?

Or is this a weird case of America lagging way behind Europe?

Btw, if you drink like a cup of coffee every few hours, and only need to make that single cup at a time, I can recommend Aeropress:


It's a plastic tube and a piston, it uses regular coffee, is simple and quick to use, cleans easily, costs :20bux: + :10bux: and one pack of those coffee filter papers costs 4bux and has 350 of them in it.

Some people say that it makes especially good coffee even, but I haven't noticed. It's just coffee. I used to use a regular coffee maker but because I only drink the 1 cup (well, mug) at a time, i just use a kettle and the aeropress.

fake edit: It doesn't have a wifi, or any electronics.

It makes a better (faux)espresso than most peoples Espresso machines, unless you're spending like $400+

Absolutely magical device.

It goes the other way too and managers try to apply six sigma to things that are nothing like manufacturing and its a disaster.

I'm a pretty big fan of Kanban*, and that's pretty much cribbed wholesale from Toyota/JIT/Lean manufacturing


*for certain types of software project
