The government gives out a lot of grants to startups, but largely in the range of $10k-$100k USD. Beyond that, there aren't many angels, and VC is dominated by highly conservative corporates. It's an incredibly tough fundraising environment.
Uber operates through a local JV with Tmap called UT. Taxi drivers typically sign up for both Kakao T and UT, except when exclusively branded. (Kakao T and Uber both operate branded taxis.)
Uber has operated in Korea for the past couple years through a local JV with Tmap called UT. It's the next most popular taxi hailing service after Kakao T.
Having worked long-term in South Korea, which has a corporate culture very similar to Japan, I'd have to agree with 6t6t6t6. The more "information" you can fit on something, the better. This is taken to the extreme with powerpoint presentations.
Android took a big step in this direction in Oreo, with a built-in central manager of the permission and notification settings of every app on the system :)
Android 7 has that too, under the "permissions" setting for apps. It's a "I don't want any notification" or "I want all of them". Are those settings in oreo better?
Yes in Oreo every notification belongs to a named "channel" and you can customize by channel. So for example saying yes to new messages and no to promotions.
I remember it changed at some point. On my ancient Moto G I can't remove Games, Google+, Newsstand, or Hangouts for example. I don't have Duo or Assistant installed and have others like Books and Movies & TV that I can't remove. I use Sheets all the time, it's the only one of that list I'd keep. And checking, I actually had to install that one manually.
They explain what the variables mean in the function header block;
* @param {Window} i The global context object.
* @param {HTMLDocument} s The DOM document object.
* @param {string} o Must be 'script'.
* @param {string} g Protocol relative URL of the analytics.js script.
* @param {string} r Global name of analytics object. Defaults to 'ga'.
* @param {HTMLElement} a Async script tag.
* @param {HTMLElement} m First script tag in document.
It might be easier to read the code if they used different names, but any good refactoring tool will replace them with your own names without any problems.
I've noticed several minified JavaScripts that have the variables spell words like the i s o g r a m here. Haven't bookmarked any so I can't find an immediate example. I thought it was just a curiosity, but I think the frequency is increasing. I wonder why. Just for giggles? Or is there any particular reason?
Using 1-character variable names saves a small amount of network bandwidth on a massive scale (for every site that uses Google Analytics). You then might as well make the 1-character variable names spell out a word, and that word has to be an "isogram" in order to provide unique variable names.
I believe that Google set a trend, 'HotJar' is a newbie on the block. If anyone can find an example that predates 'urchin.js' (or wherever this started) please share!
I don't know where it started for software, but I can give you an example that predates the web.
In the 80s and early 90s my mother was an interior designer at a high end furniture store. There were no prices on the floor models because most things could be customized (fabric, arm shape, wood, etc) before delivery. However there was a base price that the designer could use to (I guess) keep people within their budget.
They used a ten-letter isogram to print the base price covertly on the furniture labels so that associates could figure it out without going to the back office and looking it up in the computer.
The last word I remember them using was Cumberland. C=0, d=9. So if the base price for a dining room table was $15,840 the tag would have urnec written on it somewhere.
that's the kinds of insightful comments I come here for. Side note, I remember in a gift / greeting card shop growing up, everything had long numbers printed on a little sticker on the back, turns out the price was just the last 4 numbers (divided by 1000).
