while recent rumors suggest that Sami is considering allowing for three-month refunds on the Samsung Galaxy s8 no questions asked why would they do that the investor reports that Samsung is considering offering customers who purchase either the s8 or the si plus the option of returning the device and getting a full refund after using it for up to three months no questions asked that's a very generous refund policy that goes well beyond what Samsung and other phone makers typically offer because after the note 7 Fiasco Samsung wants to prove that they are very confident in the quality and safety of the upcoming flagship it's not clear at least for the moment whether Samsung plans to offer the 3-month refund policy exclusive to South Korea or perhaps in other markets as well now let's talk gu --gel maps and the fact that they will soon be rolling out sharing features that will allow you to share your location with friends and family but it is a double-edged sword it has been one of the most requested features for google map users and it's finally coming in the near future the company revealed this week that an update will soon be rolling out worldwide for both Android and iOS versions of Google Maps that will add a way for people to share their current location with friends or anyone else Google says the update will allow people to share their location in Google Maps by either accessing its side menu or just by tapping the blue dot on the map which is supposed to show where you are currently located then you tap the share location option and finally you get to see which of your family friends or other contacts you want to share your location with but it is a double-edged sword as a parent with a teenage daughter I can relate to the need to want to know where she is at all times because let's face it I am a little bit of a control freak thank you very much you may go now of course this may be practical and convenient and even fun for you to use with your friends there is the other side of the sword the dark side the point of which this technology like so many other technologies we talk about can be used for nefarious purposes we can get to a point where you could go nowhere and have no privacy you couldn't be left alone and just be you without having to have someone else know where you are and what you're doing and who you're doing it with that's the dark side now if you are a developer or an aspiring developer code is your world you create it tweak it and lovingly obsess over it so picking the right repository management tool is super important that's why our sponsor at Atlassian created bitbucket bitbucket is the git solution for professional teams helping over 5 million developers build with a purpose bitbucket gives teams of all sizes free private repositories with state-of-the-art features like the world's best pull request algorithm built in continuous delivery and integrations with your favorite tools like docker AWS and Azure and because bitbucket comes from Atlassian you get the best JIRA integration available bitbucket is for the code that takes us to Mars decodes the human genome or drives your next car visit bitbucket org forward slash for the code to start your free account that's bitbucket org forward slash for the code try bitbucket today what will your code do
