My hands are almost always cold in the winter here (NE Ohio) and I've found a couple of things that help with that while still letting me get work done. Fingerless mittens are one option, and while they don't cover your actual fin

I am decidedly not a coffee snob, but agree that almond milk in coffee isn't great. I've tended to use coconut milk because it has some creaminess to it that seems to work well in coffee. I'll have to see if I can find oat mi

I've commented on this previously, but I think there's some aspects of the tech industry that really do lead to burnout, depression, and cynicism among the people who work in it - and this applies to both software dev and IT suppo

My day job involves a lot of Docker, Kubernetes, and microservices stuff, and the way we do builds and deployments is in flux... so every time I'm looking at a new project at work, almost the first thing I do every time is go hunting f

Cool project! I'm actually in the process of rebuilding my personal site as a static site and if I decide to add comments back in (I'm torn on this), this looks like it's going to be pretty high on my list. As an aside, I was

I think there's a few things about the software industry that make it really easy to become depressed, cynical, and jaded. We spend quite a lot of time being pedantic, fixating on all kinds of specific details, and especially, thinking

That article is from August 22 - I just checked in the MAS and the most recent Airmail update was the 25th and the changes specifically mention a URL security fix, so they may have addressed this already. I've also used Airmail on and

Yes, I prefer not having my card details stored across so many different services. Even though I trust Netflix to be competent on security, it's one more place I have to remember to update/manage it every time I get a new card. A

Yeah, this is my problem as well. I have a really hard time coming up with ideas for a good side project, and then when I do, half the time I find out someone already implemented something like that and it feels like I'm just pointless

Reading. It's faster for me, and too many videos don't have closed captioning so I miss too much of the information in them.

Great thread, lots of good responses. Here are my own answers: 1. Recreation and saving money. I really like good food, but don't always want to pay restaurant prices for it. There's a certain satisfaction in creating something de

This looks really cool, and I signed up for the list. That said, I'm very curious how accessible the videos will be. Screencasts are cool, but since I'm deaf, they're not always ideal for me since many of them aren't cap

I'm deaf, so I don't have quite the same needs in headphones that most people do. That said, I do sometimes like to listen to music and need isolating headphones (so they don't leak sound and annoy my coworkers) that fit comf

Thanks for the tip on Quick File Creator. I'm a pretty heavy Sublime Text user and that just solved a pain point for me. Another one that's useful for me in web-related work and not specific to any particular language is the Web E

For the US market, there's at least one company that provides this data. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name, sorry. :( I do know it exists, though. I used to work for a major American tire manufacturer and maintained a coupl

It seems they are in fact making some major upgrades to the developer tools, as described here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ie/bg182632(v=vs.85)... Some of it appears to be parity with existing de

I really like the idea and I will be checking this out, particularly since I have a long-ish commute to the office. I will say, though, that I think for the way my morning routine tends to go, it would be more useful to me as a Mac app. I a

The past few times I've been to the movies it's been to Cinemark theaters since they added the cupholder-based captioning devices to almost all of their theaters a few years ago. They work well, but as the article noted, they're a pain beca

I'm also a little bit of a (left-handed) pen geek, and I've used all three of these, plus the Hi-Tec-C. The Hi-Tec-C lays down a very nice, smooth line, but it's probably my least favorite because the narrow plastic barrel gets uncomfortabl

Another useful tip for navigation - when using the fuzzy search, you can start typing a filename to jump to that file, then with that still in the search box, hit # and start typing a keyword to jump to in that file. So if you wanted to fin

Didn't vote since there isn't a "maybe" option. It will depend on how well Siri deals with my 'deaf' accent. One of my coworkers is planning to upgrade to the 4S from the 4, so when he gets it I'll probably get a chance to see how well it d
