I've had multiple Airbnb hosts have no problem with that. However, you can't really rely on it, and unlike a hotel, figuring out timing logistics for when they will be around to let you drop it off early can be tricky/more t

Since they are likely using CSS modules or some other type of scopped CSS, it means the classes they write are human readable, but not guaranteed to be globally unique. For example, you have FooComponent and BarComponent. Both may have a

I was scared for a second. I'm really loving the amazon go store (though, it also happens to be downstairs from where I work).

At this point I'm just happy when drivers use turn signals. I have a 6 mile one-way bike commute through the city. It's rare I have a whole drive with everyone signaling properly. Thankfully, bike infrastructure here in SF has

Does that mean you are against stereos in cars too? Hearing your surroundings while driving is also important.

With the bone-conductive headphones (And the Pixel buds to a large extent), you do hear everything around you. From what I started reading on the bone-conductive headphones, it'd be no different than having a speaker mounted on your bi

Oh, I never even thought to look at that option. Any idea how sound quality compares to headphones like that vs. something like the pixel buds? Though, I'd feel more comfortable listening to music with bone-conductive headphones than

Those Anker ones are still in-ear, which I don't think is a fair comparison with the Pixel Buds. I think I'm a bit more sensitive to having things physically stuck in my ear canal though. Though, I'm curious, do you really

Admittedly, I've really liked the Pixel Buds, but for some of the same reasons people dislike it: * I absolutely love that I can still hear my surroundings. I've been able to bike with them in, but still feel like I can hear my s

I have the same scooter as the parent comment and I have to say I feel significantly safer on my bike. I like the scooter and it's fun and useful for quick errands where I don't want to get sweaty. However, the breaks are not ne

While I've had people say I'm crazy, I don't think I could ever give up my current font I've been using for years now: https://github.com/belluzj/fantasque-sans . It's both readable and fun.

The $30 plan with 5GB data (unlimited, but throttled afterward) and 100 minutes still exists (and I use it) -> https://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/other-prepaid-plans

I've been running Flextory ( http://flextory.com ) for years now. However, the revenue it makes is pretty small now and customers have dropped off as more niche solutions come into existence. I've thought about selling

Square has had chip readers for a little while now and they are pretty cheap too --> https://squareup.com/shop/reader . One of my favorite bars is already using it. Why would someone switch away from square if the

Yeah, definitely. When I first started, it was a significant portion of my life (it's also won a couple competitions...one of which being a business plan competition). I just made the very difficult decision to take on full-time empl

I would consider selling my side project/business - http://flextory.com . It's a web based data management system with a focus on features for handling inventory. I went pretty far with it and have some active custom

I actually really wanted to cater to personal use, but I've been having a hard time figuring out the best way to do it. I could make a plan limited to one user and maybe like 2,000 items, a minimal amount of storage, and all for $10 a mont

I'll definitely be revamping the UI in the near future. Also, a random note, but there are a lot of subtle features such as no pages (you just keep scrolling), easy category exploration (items show up immediately on the right as you browse

Thanks for all the great resources. I will admit that design is not my strong point, but the backend and features are all there, that it's pretty easy to revamp the entire design. I'm going to look into twitter bootstrap and maybe paying

No problem. Also, I just pushed out an update that automatically brings you to the login screen if you are not logged in. Hopefully that'll clear some confusion.

You need to log in first. Click log-in in the upper right hand corner. However, thanks for mentioning that, as you are the second person to point out a bit of confusion with that. In fact, I'll see if I can push out a quick fix to clarif
