Four dot Nine dot Twenty Twenty

Yet another sign that there will be no World Peace tonight. Some people are so inconsiderate and selfish.

Why would you left those gloves in random places? Please throw them in the trash bin.

This situation with COVID-19/Novel Coronavirus do bring the worst out of some people.

Scenes from Sunday Morning at Target

Stores are having shortages of household essentials such as toilet paper, paper towels, hand soaps, and hand sanitizers. People are waiting in line to get into Target, Big Lots and Trader Joe before these stores open.

Yes, it is getting out of hand, as many household essentials and food items are completely cleaned out of the shelves.

Juice are all sold out
No toilet papers on the shelves

Complicated and Convoluted

CurrentC Mobile App

Complicated and convoluted are the current C-words.

According to The New York Times:

The problem is that under the terms of their MCX contractual agreement, they are not supposed to accept competing mobile payments products like Apple Pay, according to multiple retailers involved with MCX, who spoke on the condition of anonymity. If these retailers break their contracts, they will face steep fines for doing so, these people said.

Target who is a member of Merchant Customer Exchange (MCX) is not taking Apple Pay at its 1,801 stores in the United States and 133 stores in Canada. Interestingly, Target is taking Apple Pay as payment method in its iOS App.

Target offers REDcard® which gives everyday 5% discount on almost everything in its stores in exchange for the customer’s information (nytimes.com).

CurrentC looks like the digital counterpart of Target REDcard® but with a really clunky implementation (techcrunch.com).

Are those QR-codes?

Reminds me of this collection of “Pictures of People Scanning QR-Codes” (via Daring Fireball).

Apparently CurrentC is the common enemy that spawn a union between Android and iOS users on Reddit. Thread 1 | Thread 2

CurrentC, a c-word, which is both complicated and convoluted.

Target in Orange, California has iPad 2 in stock.

Are you still waiting in line to get an iPad 2? If you live around Orange in California, head to Target Store because they have at least one White 64GB Wi-Fi iPad 2.
