When I worked retail we stocked books from one vendor that actually sold their products directly on Amazon at a lower cost than they'd sell to their wholesalers. We'd gladly take that discount instead of paying a premium for order

I don't think they care about the service. They already bought one system and rebranded it. Doing it again makes little sense. They likely care more about the users and exclusive agreements they signed. Even if those aren't transf

Sure but my point is that they have multiple quality methods at their disposal. I'm not saying this is a bad method, I'm saying it's one of many good methods. I think as far as Coffee geekery goes, the Kyoto Coffee maker does

A local coffee shop does this and the results are excellent. As he suggests it maintains crisp aromatics. They use a special double walled vessel with ice separated from the coffee so it doesn't become watered down. The taste is very g

I use it day in and day out. It's my favorite editor due to its simplicity. Most of my work is editing source and I find the command set and feature appealing for that. When I need to do serious line oriented editing or regular express

Sorry, I guess it's more accurate to say that the model will be affected in the future. I'm obviously still able to put OpenWRT on the one I actually own.

I just bought one of the affected TPLink models. Personally I hope this means more vendors ship a good quality copy of OpenWRT a la Buffalo (though I ended up sticking with their modified version) as an officially supported firmware. People

For the sake of brevity I didn't dive as deeply into the subject as I maybe should have, but the solution you get with Cocoapods to this is if you have two Pods that point at a shared dependency in another Pod you end up with just one

If random access and/or standard FS operations (i.e. ls) across the WAN are desired, GlusterFS is a good choice. It's what I used in a past project with success and what Facebook uses internally. If you know exactly where your res

I don't think that's really gaming the license. If a fast two core system fits your needs then you only need the two core license. MS is happy to sell those to you all day long. If you have a serious load and SQL Server is key to
