I love Microsoft's keyboards. I use their Sculpt ergonomic keyboard day to day and it is such a nice piece of kit. Similar width to the apple wireless keyboard but in a far more comfortable form factor.

My favourite gotcha for Docker right now is the lack of ssh agent forwarding support with Dockerfile. The only solution appears to be to give the Dockerfile a passwordless build key, which is sorta okay for CI but a total hassle for individ

I wanted one of these so bad when I was a kid. I did have a couple of these awesome science/engineering type of toys, as well as a load of lego. The one that stands out in my mind still was a little solar steam "engine". Once

This happened in Australia as well and it really sucks. I run a 15" Series 9 machine and the only thing you can fairly compare it to is a Macbook Air. They're beautiful pieces of hardware somewhat let down by their crappy LCDs. I
