I’m usually an every other iPhone person, but I switched from last year’s plus model to the X because of the size and wireless charging. I want the big-ish screen, but a little smaller form factor. I’ve got bear paws for hands, but a plus i

I commented up above. I was in your daughter’s position. She may not know what’s she’s missing now, but please use it as often as you can! Even little stuff like “grab the ketchup from the fridge” is enormous. I can’t do it with my dad’s la

I had to have hip arthroscopy because I had an impingement, leading to quite a bit of cartilage damage/labral tearing in the joint. They even had to reshape the end of the femur to remove the impingement. It's quite a recovery per

I can’t take Ibuprofen (or any typical NSAIDS including aspirin) because of a medical condition, which has sucked over the last decade because acetaminophen really doesn’t help me at all when I’m excruciatingly sore for whatever reason. In

I take Remicaid, which has technically been on the market longer than Humira and still requires me to go in to an Infusion Center to get hooked up to an IV for 2hrs every 8 weeks. The ‘full price’ cost of my treatment: $16,000 just for the

I’ve got a few doctor’s offices/clinics that are in MyChart. It’s wildly convenient. The app and site are generally poorly designed, but work well enough that I’d rather have it than not.

Having reviewed hundreds, maybe over a thousand, resumes in the last decade- I am fully in agreement on hating one page resumes. That being said, if it’s five pages long, I’m not reading most of it anyway. Here’s what I care about: - What h

Some of the original articles (that I’m too lazy to dig up and cite) stated that Oregon was telling him not to SAY that he was an engineer in his correspondence with them and in media portrayals because it’s a licensed profession. At some p

Growing up in Oregon I was always annoyed by the slow as hell left lane campers. Having spent a half decade elsewhere and recently moving back it has escalated from annoyance to blood boiling seething rage. When I left Seattle, the state of

I really liked the concept of Final and I used mine for all one-off purchases from random merchants online. The app made it very easy to generate a card on the fly, the UI was nice, and support was nice and helpful the couple times I reache

After getting so frustrated with really expensive consumer WiFi routers I finally decided to give Ubiquiti a try. I purchased an Edge Router Lite and a dual channel AC Pro access point for about the cost of a nice consumer model. It took al

I’ve got a Ubiquiti Edge Router Lite as The Router for my house. Not sure if it does exactly per-device but if you enable it, it can show traffic per host/ip, site ‘category’, etc. It’s quite a nice little piece of kit. Speed-wise,it’s

I don’t think it’s a race to the bottom because people are okay with what we’re getting. We have no other options, at best, we get to choose our flavor of shit pie. I have been able to successfully avoid United for the better part of a deca

I’ve only got a couple hundred followers and rarely tweet and it’s been massively effective a couple of times for me. It helps to work in a popular or trending hashtag for good measure.

If you look at Z-wave enabled thermostats you’ll have some luck. Z-wave devices form their own local mesh network and can be controlled by offline devices in your home. The API would be provided by something like Mi Casa Verde running on so

The prices of new electric standing desks were so appalling to me that I held off on it for a couple of years. I’m 6’3” so I pretty much have to buy the higher end models, as they’re typically the only ones that go up high enough. Finally I

That’s interesting to me that you guys didn’t have any ethics classes. At my uni (10 years ago) we actually had a 200 level CS class specifically focused on ethics in technology. Granted, one class in four years still isn’t much, but it was

I agree that it’s the best of its sort, at least compared to the other popular options I’ve used, but it’s not being compared to much. The rest seem barely usable at best and just designed to get you to buy any font whatsoever. I still occa

I meant 30 year olds as the decade of 30-39, not specifically 30, and I was opposing the 30 year olds to the 10 year olds. If we extrapolated that classroom analogy to the workplace I’d think it would be more akin to a mid to late 20s with

The fact that you’ve been there for that long suggests that you’re working for an ‘older’ (both as in the age of the company AND the average age of employees) company to begin with, which would likely NOT have that kind of culture. As someo

I’ve moved three times since I had enough money and not enough time to justify paying for the help. The first time was pretty “meh”. We moved 15 miles, from 1500sqft to about 2000sqft. We did all the packing, they did the moving. They were
