Typically takes at leat 7 years to get NZ citizenship (except for Peter Thiel) -- 2 for Permanent Residency then another 5 years for citizenship. 6 years of which you have to actually live in NZ . That's a fairly long-winded "back

Head to https://letterboxd.com — besides looking and working beautifully, it's designed from the ground up as a social movie site to find, review, track and share great (and awful) watches. The list functionality is superb

Cables? Yes, except where the logo is on both sides. Sockets? Seems to depend entirely on what's convenient for the hardware/PCB layout. From the last 48h: one of my chargers, my car, and two different model monitors all have &quo

Sounds like you're pitching a complete rewrite, which absolutely isn't the case. Six works great and is simple to push through for side-by-side compatibility. That combined with `from __future__` for Py2.7 allows most codebases to

My BT HomeHub5 has been pretty unreliable - regular dropouts of Wifi from some Macs, similar to the DHCP thing that OP described. Then monthly reboots when everything stops. Performance is pitiful, but I blame that on the ADSL1 :)
