I agree with your notion of the importance of balance in a developer's life. I think work-life balance is important, no matter what your profession is. However, behind every successful, well-crafted software project are still business

Services like Car2Go are great when you are staying within the city. The main traffic issue in Seattle is traveling to/from/through downtown Seattle. Adding a train that travels between Bellevue and Seattle would solve a ton of pr

The only thing I use Yahoo! for is for fantasy sports. They recently started trying to compete with sites like DraftKings by using obnoxious pop-up ads for it all the time. Very poor execution with that as well.
