This winter so far the temp ranged from 2f to 60f... In 48 hours... So in those cases you know if it is single jacket, double jacket, or sweatshirt. That's one example. Schedules, playing music, guitar tuner, uke tuner, metric conversi

Maybe you guys should offer wordpress services for setting up websites. Then you would be: 1. working within a large piece of software (learning) 2. up and running fast and feeling good about making progress 3. able to use google to resolv

Great, now I have two workarounds instead of using a giant screen that's installed in the front of the car that you have to use for everything else. The voice commands suck if you're speaking English as a second language BTW.

The Microsoft Sync system in my current Ford (2015) and last Ford (2013) were the worst onboard computers I've used. They crash when restarting your iPhone if connected by usb. They loose connection with my phones. They require you

The product manager below clarified that it's a 1 year free trial... so you're pretty spot on. EDIT: I'm just realizing now that the product manager is Jesse Noller, prolific Python and PyCon contributor... so maybe it'

I will always remember the original slackware and Wallnut Creek FreeBSD distro cds I could buy from microcenter 20 years ago... I had so much fun installing, partitioning, install packages, then write my own code and compile it. Thanks to

Heroku is not accepting new builds, but is still performing for my web apps that are deployed there. I would say it's not down, but that they're having deployment issues.

$20 is just the tire kicker filter... all those people who would never actually ship a game (most devs) are not going to waste the time of the unreal engine team with their beginner requests.

Agreeing with Karunamon completely, it's the with-us-or-against-us attitude that makes people not want to work with GNU people... they can feel like the PETA of software.

It is brute force, just not for a cracking context like you would normally hear that word.

I may be old, but this just reminds me of Larry Wall's Perl 6 and in my opinion Python 3 should have been a hobby project / incubator for changes that could be introduced to Python 2 eventually.

You don't loose an employee because of money. You said it yourself that it's not their top concern. After you have alienated an employee to the point they no longer want to be part of their company, why would they say anything ot

Having worked with SAP via ABAP and Java back in the day (and hating it) I can still feel the soul of SAP through these web apps. They still feel incredibly slow and bloated for what they do. Their market dominance is driven by the FUD of

I asked for a refund of the VMWare plugin the same day I purchased it, over a week ago and have received no response. It doesn't work reliably compared to the virtualbox one and requires windowsesque multiple restarts to make it work a

I think that there is so little legitimate news content in email and the offer emails masquerade as content, so it's impossible for a machine to tell them apart. I'd rather go in there once a day and pull out the things I care abo
