My first at Amazon Books store

For most folks visiting New York, definitely there are wonderful attractions all around the city - some nostalgic, some iconic, some challenge our perspective and imagination.

For me, one of the must go on my list was the physically existing Amazon Books retail store.

I know Amazon as an online company with whatever I do with them is on Internet. Never though I would make it to a physical book store owned by Amazon.

Upbeat and Elated. I picked up a bunch of printed kid titles while I was there.

If you are an avid reader and hooked on to Amazon services, put this one on your must do list as well. Best.

Fullform of Oracle?

What is the fullform of Oracle (for Oracle Corporation)?

Oracle used to be an early era computer and stood for "Oak Ridge Automatic Computer and Logical Engine". This is however not connected with the Oracle Corporation we know today. Oracle Corporation got its name from a failed defense project that Larry, Ed and Bob (the initial founders) worked on. Check Wikipedia for more details.

Apple Pay availability in Browsers

Apple pay on Apple devices is well supported on Safari Browser. However there is no support on Firefox, could be the same case for other browsers as well (as of this post). I am not sure if there is an implied restriction from Apple to not release it for other browsers, or the site creators are not interested in using the APIs to call in non-safari browser (which seems very unlikely).
