I have tried mightily to move completely to my Pixel Chromebook. The one thing that prevents a complete migration is actually what Google is claimed to be quite good at: searching. I have a couple of apps on my PC, DTSearch and X1 that index my files and are searchable by a variety of means. Google's own search of my Google Drive comes up very deficient at doing what DTSearch and X1 can do.
eM Client lets me set up Gmail as my primary account and basically acts as a shell over Gmail. I can even edit email Subject lines for those nonsensical Subject lines that make no contextual sense.
Biggest complaint I have with Gmail is its inability to let the user change the email Subject line to something relevant to my needs. Enter eM Client http://www.emclient.com/
Use eM Client to get Gmail, Google Calendar, Contacts and can do everything needed to be done, including dealing with mass changes to labels, starred messages, etc. Not to mention the fact that exporting all messages within eM Client into locally stored folders for backup is now easily possible.
Just kill Cortana process from the task manager. Will require killing it about six times or so before it actually remains off...until you restart...then just repeat the process.
Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
Romans 10:9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.
Romans 10:13 For "whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."

After teaching electrical engineering at universities (you, too should consider some adjunct professor part-time teaching) I moved into industry. I sought out positions that needed my quantitative skills versus my skills in theoretical topics. My EE doctorate is related to stochastic queueing theory and the mathematics was what I knew could be parlayed into other areas. I landed a position in a quality control department working on design for manufacturability aspects of a SONET add-drop multiplexer project. So my day was basically crunching numbers. Tedious indeed.
While attending a project review of the add-drop mux development the instability of the laser electro-optical interface was delaying the project month after month. I chatted up the project manager and he agreed to let me peek over the shoulder of the engineer designing the interface. After a week of review of the design it was clear to me that the designer did not understand the mathematics of PLL stability and I was able to recommend some changes to the design that resolved the stability issue of the electro-optical interface. Within another month I was transferred out of the QA department to the actual design team. From there, it was on to Motorola, Intel, etc. At Intel I managed an R&D lab full of PhDs, often hired by me not to leverage the specifics of their PhD but for the fact that their doctorate meant that they could take punishment, were able to synthesize a wide body of knowledge into something coherent, and had a degree of mental discipline that could be shaped for the needs of my lab.
Look for areas that your doctoral studies can be leveraged in other domains. Grab the position even if it pays poorly. Excel at your job and the rest will take are of itself.
I own two Chromebooks, including the Pixel. I use the Pixel daily in my work as an intellectual property consultant (wireless communications engineering). About the only time I must remote desktop into my Windows machine is to run a couple of specialized search tools (X1 and DTSearch). The remainder of all I need to do can be done on my Pixel. This "worthless" machine pays the bills and provides me a worry free environment. Just sayin'.
How about just telling the fellow directly? Why the hand-wringing over this? I appreciate it when someone tells me where I need room for improvement and any reasoned person should as well, no?
Exactly. Folks should realize that any public statements made can wind up in other jurisdictional lawsuits in progress. While the judge may not be happy with the approach being taken, he will have to understand that his judgement cannot be so onerous as to place Apple at a disadvantage elsewhere.
Works for me. I don't think anything a new KF will offer will make me want to suddenly run out a replace my KF1, if you will. The usage model for me is simple-- store and read books and docs. Access the internet from time to time, too. Do not see a need for a camera or increased memory footprint as I will likely never be able to read all that I have stored on my KF1 now. I guess the only thing that will force me to upgrade will be a failure of the battery.
Then again, if they had some utility that would completely duplicate all the items I have installed, including all apps, then I might consider making the upgrade. I just do not want to go through the pain and effort spent tweaking all my apps and what not all over again.
Er, no. I am a wireless communications intellectual property forensic analyst.
Patents are granted for something novel, non-obvious, filed in time, and useful. A patent grants the right to the owner to prevent others from making, using, selling, offering to sell, or importing the claimed invention. Contrary to popular belief, a patent does not grant the owner the right to practice the invention. Why? Simply because this might require the use of technology patented by someone else!

Mr. Wolfram,
Will Mathematica progress to the point of being able to parse plain language such that it can extract the mathematical concepts into its underlying language for processing?
