I should say that I'm otherwise pretty happy with the car. So much so that a few weeks later we leased an Elantra for my wife. If I could go back, I would have gotten that instead. She has a few more gadgets than me (heated seats, sunr

Recent car lessee here. Like most people, I'm not in a position to buy a Tesla, but I agree that I can't stand the games the others play. I recently leased a 2017 Hyundai Sonata. I go in telling them exactly what I want (base mode

Like many others here, I'm not a lawyer, so don't take this as qualified legal advice. But yes, I totally agree here. I once lost out on a great opportunity because I was stubborn about signing an NDA that probably would have had

+1. I recently got an Dell XPS 13 and hooked it up to my external monitor (4K). Icons were way too small so I adjusted those and standard text size. But getting applications (e.g. PyCharm) to run at a reasonable size was frustrating (I ha

A lot of the other comments are focusing on the content and style of your website. Here's the thing: Most employers are never going to look at that. Unless you are showcasing something truly incredible, even the ones who are actually i

Still, most people won't pay if it's optional. I wonder what percentage of readers pay for the Guardian's news. In the old days, you could pickup a newspaper and set it back down, but if you wanted any sort of convenience, yo

Two thoughts: * It's a good idea to try to quantify the cost of losing an employee. If you at least understand what basic costs you'll incur, such as cost of hiring, training, etc. it'll give you a basis for realizing the imp

I am generally pretty hesitant to change browsers, but I actually really like the feel of this. It's super clean and the keyboard shortcuts are the same as what I'm used to so it seems like it should be an easy switch. Definitely

OK. You should update the original question you asked to include the fact that the server side code is using PHP and you'll probably get more targeted responses. Also, which database are you using and where is that being hosted?
