    I used to skip the lounge access also, but its a nice perk. It has decent internet, some snacks until I eat on the plane, and foremost comfortable seating. I don't like a lot of no…

    PayPal isn't so bad--doing millions through them a year has caused no problems that couldn't be worked out. I looked at Braintree before the acquisition and they seemed really cool…

    I think this is mostly a solution without a problem. Just to hit a few points--S3 might (and I'm not sure I agree) be expensive. However, it gives you HA and multiple copies of you…

    In the past years I've gone from a 15" MBP to an 11" MBA and most recently the 12" MB. I hate the MB. The key travel is way too short and have seen no signs of adjusting. The lack …

    S3 is going to be a lot cheaper. It isn't perfect, but it's pretty reliable. Then you can look at cloudfront. And they did recently release cross-region S3 replication. Then you ca…

    This would be big for us. When we initially looked at the problem of sharing or keeping a large number of files in sync, the prospects were dim. DRBD? etc. So we ended up using Glu…

    I recently switched back to Firefox exactly for this reason. Firefox has tab overflow so that I can actually tell what an open tab is. Additionally, Firefox can be set to ONLY load…

    Any time I move, I try to divest myself of at least half of everything I own. I've moved with only what I could fit into luggage. The take on it that I'm more comfortable with now …

    So, you're an expert with Google's tools and want to set up a workshop... so of course your first choice is to go use Facebook...

    I like spy.co. If you were planning to let that one lapse or had an interest in letting it go.

    I've been using cyphertite after giving up on SpiderOak. It's been nice so far.

    I use https://code.google.com/p/motp/ for 2FA. Google Authenticator used to be open source, but is not anymore. That frustrates me.

    So because they studied CS they're qualified to design drugs? I didn't see any testing/trials in their plans. I also think the drug they're fighting is probably Modafinil--not Adde…

    I ended up using a Nexus 10 for reading technical stuff. The kindle is too small and you lose the page formatting. I really wish they'd bring back the Kindle DX format.

    I'm not exactly on topic, but I hope you can forgive me touting my own project. I'm trying to raise money to fund the work necessary to get OpenBSD running on Apple hardware. One c…
