It will be interesting to see what happens in Amsterdam over the next few years since they clamped down hard on AirBnB. Hosts now have to be officially registered with the city. AirBnB lost something like 90% of their hosts overnight!

That sounds like an amazing experience. How self-sufficient were you for eating and sleeping? What bike did you use?

Like any hobby it can be as expensive or cheap as you like. My road bike (Cannondale CAAD8 from 2010) is probably worth €200-250, yet gets ridden 10x more than other bikes in the house costing upwards of €7k.

This is precisely the reason I cycle 1000KMs each year - a combination of time alone, fresh air and exercise (either high or low impact) really helps offset life's worries.

Have a system by which each coffee comes with a unique code on the receipt. This code grants you 1hr on the WiFi before terminating your session. Present a screen which provides a payment gateway to buy more time - or for less money - buy

In addition, DJ pools often contain music and extended club mix friendly edits of songs. Radio tracks that might start off with just vocals might have a "extended club mix" which has a clean 16/32/48 bars of instrumental

Facebook does something similar to combat adblockers. They mangle the names of div elements to make sponsored posts indistinguishable from friends/group posts. I'm not aware of any browser plugins which are effective at blocking

I've done a few zero downtime migrations for clients, mostly due to the common story of the credits when they started out on coming to an end. More often than not they realised a super dynamic cloud infrastructure was completely overki

Good memories of a time when I was into PC hardware and had a good knowledge of the product landscape. These days I have absolutely no clue as this MacBook Air (2017/i5/8/256) _just works_ :-)

I was walking up to Amsterdam Centraal when I noticed floods of people all exiting the building... within minutes an Uber was booked to Schiphol before prices rocketed due to demand.

I would recommend plugging the hardware into power measuring units before the wall sockets to give you an estimated running cost. Depending on where you are in the world electricity can be crazy expensive. The cost of purchasing a lower po

Automated parking has already proven successful in personal vehicles so perhaps that technology could be applied to boats, both sail and motor? Not everyone has the luxury of a bow thruster in tight spaces!

My nephews (all under 16) have only experienced "always on" internet. The idea you had to co-ordinate with family on using the phone line via weird screeching noises, only to browse at a slow speed was lost on them.
