That's because it should be 'sunlight' or 'sunshine', not abbreviated to 'sun'.

Sounds like you need a process, rather than a tool. Personally, I jot down everything that gets mentioned to me on paper and, within 1-2 days, it will end up in the project management system (if it is something to be worked on). Once it

Maybe it is hit and miss, but I was in a WeWork in London for 4 months and it was fairly quiet, but it was 4 people to a glass-separated 'room' (called a 'shared office'). So it would depend on the random draw for the ot

Sounds idyllic, but you will struggle to make a business case unless Slack is mission-critical to your business (which it probably isn't - you can simply email, phone or walk over and talk to somebody).

The only way I could see you doing this is by automatically scanning an employee's email archive and producing a list of services. I do not see how introducing yet another standard solves the problem. SAML and similar standards already

Maybe because you are early stage and wish to pay close attention to how people use your product. A sales agent might want to keep an eye on their hot prospect as they browse the website. There are lots of possibilities.

Is there any kind of utility to search for a Bitcoin wallet on a hard drive? I am fairly sure I gambled everything I had in Bitcoin from 2013/2014 and I have not used it since. But I just want to double check!

From my experience (of talking to bootcamp applicants), bootcamps are not so much about learning how to code, but rather how to get an entry-level job. At first glance of somebody's Github, it will look like they have lots of open-sour

I used to live outside the M25 and a black cab was £110 from central London (around 30 miles). Uber was around £50-£60, so much cheaper by comparison.
