Do you think they're still trying to get more Saudi money after the Jamal Khashoggi government sponsored murder? VCs need to be smart about their LPs. Idealistic startup founders / employees (the one's VCs tend to invest in)

I tried a few times switching to Hyper. Loved the idea, but it's just nowhere near ready. I'm fine trading performance for scriptability / functionality. But spending hours just trying to get Hyper script opening new tabs was

I see the same. Shocks me how many ads there are. On the other hand, the ads tend to be really good. I have to close the app to prevent myself pissing away money on stuff.

Not great for handling Bitcoin transactions. I would highly recommend against using Cobol for any new cryptocurrency projects.

Loved this post. But I'd recommend to not try this at home. You'll end up spending way too much money, and wasting way too much time. Just grab a PC or console for gaming. Trying to game on a Mac is just swimming upstream, without

It's the SFMTA's fault. They were way too conservative with ebikes launches. Signed an exclusively contract with a company that couldn't deliver. They shut down most of the scooter shares. And Jump bikes (the best option in m

Once you install Zoom into all your workplace conference rooms (aka Zoom rooms), you're pretty much locked in. It's also pretty great from a work angle. We have remote workers who can Zoom into any meeting and it's seamless.

Good job beating the system. If you tracked all the hours and mental energy you spent on these tasks vs the amount of money returned, what do you think the hourly rate would come to?

This is awesome. Wonder if serverless-ruby.org made a difference in helping them prioritizing it. Either way, it's a huge upgrade to Lambda (especially with the new Lambda Layers and Runtime API) https://aws.amazon.com/

You have to compare it to avg incomes. They make less in Vancouver than Chicago, so it takes up a much higher percentage of their income.

I'm glad that you're covered. But have you ever driven over to the seedier part of town and seen most of the businesses revolve around money lending? "Money Tree", "Payday Loans", etc. We're talking about

There's a gitter channel for Element. But the community is not as good as Vuetify. If you are ok with the Material design look, Vuetify is far superior in terms of # of components, community participation, and developer feedback.

I'll also chime in. I started using this about a month ago and it's been rock solid and really easy to work with. Especially with Vue CLI 3. Really like the clean interface. Ended up using this instead of Vuetify. Vuetify is reall

Landmark has made good choices so far, and play some of the best films you can't find anywhere else. I'm also worried that Amazon will decide that it's more profitable to just have em switch to playing comic book movies nonst

I really wish people wouldn't use JSON for configuration. The lack of comments and shortcomings in formatting abilities make it particularly ill-suited. { "_comment": "this is a comment" } is cringeworthy to. It&#x2
