Speaking of craftsman....Sears sold them off a few years ago. They seem to be making a resurgence in Lowe's stores. They're being sold at a slightly lower price point then the Lowe's standard Kobalt brand.

first up, awesome post! I grew up in much the same way(i'm 35, from lower middle class/upper lower class). If it was at all possible to do it our selves, we did because didn't have much choice. Today I live on a hobby farm

A co-worker gave me a great phrase for this: Fix the blame. I've run into a bunch of companies that spend far more time fixing the blame, then actually fixing the problem. Good luck with that business model.

Yes. There is a noticed decrease in energy, my wife/kids have confirmed my mood is effected too. I've not tested it fully but I think I get sick more often if i don't regularly take d3.

I take 5000IU a day. When I miss a day or two I know it. For the price of some D3 it's cheap insurance.

To me this doesn't look like iPad taking on the surface so much as ipad taking on the surface and Chromebooks.

This looks to be very much like codenvy.io or cloud9. The change seems to be that it's built into the stuff(CI/CD/containers/*) openshift provides.

It's not the number of repairs, it's the sheer impact of repairs. Farming is a 48 weeks of relative calm. With 4-6 weeks a year of sheer, balls to the wall, 24x7, all out GO GO GO. Having a core piece of equipment fail in those

It fits the "trust me I'm lying" criteria for a planted story.

Seems about every 2-3 years a company tries this. And every single time my hopes go up like crazy. I SOOOOOOOO want this. and every time I'm disappointed. The ipad pro is close, as is the surface book. What ends up biting me is the

Spark and a SQL database have different use cases. Spark is a n analytics engine to do processing on data. SQL databases are for storage and retrieval of data(they just so happen to be able to do various analytical type stuff).

snoop, the ancient Solaris tool had a command line switch(-a) that would output network packets to /dev/audio. Back in ~97-98 I discovered this an had about 20 minutes of fun.

Drug tests don't actually look for drugs. They look for deviations from normal in your body's chemistry.

It is a known that Pride FC did not test athletes and even had statements in the contracts that they would not test. That might be the closest you'll ever come to what you're asking for. Also, MMA in general right now is going th

Sun's initiative was on the market. You could(I did) buy time on their grid. However, to characterize it as something that would have or competed with amazon is just wrong. Sun's offering was much more of a pre-google compute en

They're sorta turning into a commercially viable DARPA. They take some really hard, large scale, problems; get the right people in a room and find solutions. Also, cars are basically software at this point. Especially tesla.
