Exactly why I'm hesitant. The robo-vacuums have been highly disappointing and do a much worse job than taking the few moments to vacuum myself. I still have one that I run constantly because it's slightly better than nothing on a

Not an option. There is an association and this a new development. I'm just looking to for the most affordable and hands free maintenance aside from hiring out a company to do it which I still might do.

Has anyone had decent results with these mowers (any brand)? I'm in the process of building a house that's going to have a pretty simple yard and I've considering picking one of these up. They are also substantially more expe

Agreed, it would be preferable if you could turn it off altogether and just get a wide variety of popular posts as that seems to match the title of 'explore' more closely. I'm into lifting but my explore has turned into a flo

No, you'd have to be logged in with the CLI as a heroku user that has privileges to said database.

How does Firefox Lockwise compare to 1Password and how does the ad/tracking protection compare to using Chrome with uBlock Origin? I do like how Firefox you can set to never auto play audio or video but the chrome flag does not seem to

Another strong recommendation for Schwab. The customer service has been stellar for years. I do hope they invest more into their UI and mobile app. That's the only thing that's slightly lacking. It's usable though. I've

Good point. It's an app that's got a life left to it. Not much in the way of changes but it's a pretty critical piece of software. Cloned a copy, moving it to 5.2 and 6.0. Had to update ruby to 2.5.1. Looks like postgresql (w

That's the other concern, right now all the gems play nice together without issue. It's possible that some of the older gems are supported under 5.x and haven't made the required changes for 6.0.

Running two production applications on 5.1.5. It works swimmingly and I rarely need to touch it except for some additional feature requests or tweaks. Is it worth the headache of upgrading to 6.0? I'm looking at the change log and depr

New startups or small businesses. You're right they want control but they can't afford tons of money to sink into iterations with a professional designer (also what makes a professional designer nowadays?). With this they get to s

Yelp is terrible to work with. From my personal experience they've crossed over into spam territory. They will call, email, leave lengthy voicemails (with rather extortionist language), non-stop trying to get you to pay for their premi

Another recommendation for Magnet. Using an ultrawide with my MBP it makes snapping windows around the screen really smooth and a key part of the workflow.

As did I and had nightmares of years past when converting a cold fusion application into a fresh rails application and migrating the database mysql to postgres. Basically, just found out functionality and redid everything. Very satisfying a

This is pretty awful. A bad assumption to make was that by turning off all activity monitoring this would have also been stopped. You can delete these items by deleting the email itself but that's a ridiculous burden to put on the end

You might want to consider adding some form of moderation. Viewed this at work and some very classic nsfw images were uploaded instead of workstations.

Thanks, yeah I just did some testing locally and made the upgrade on Heroku (the documentation was rock solid).

Running 10.7 and 10.6 on two production applications with Heroku. Thinking about moving to 11 to ensure support for the long run as I rarely need to touch this and it's very stable but would like to minimize any headaches in the future

It would really neat if they also included all the targeting options that were used on the ads as well. Currently you can gather that by seeing age, gender, and location but specific groups, etc that were used aren't available.

Marcus is solid. Moved money over there myself. There isn't much to it, no bells and whistles but it's straight interest at a reasonable rate (compared to the others) which many people are looking for. They have CD options as wel

I also work on a Rails system. It does the job and the nice part about it is whenever I need to make tweaks I can easily dive into the code and implement said feature quite quickly. There are a few services I wrote that have a bit of overhe

Pricing seems fair though. I’d pay 1.99 for an image I needed to use this for commercial use. To do this manually might take a tad longer and may not come out as nice. I haven’t tried it yet but if it’s anything like the examples seems grea

I'd hear that all the time too but satellites do play a role. I'm just unsure exactly how they fit in.
