    While I agree with a lot of the suggestions in this post, I disagree with the "you’re not buying, you’re selling" part. It's just not that one-sided. I think the proces of hiring o…

    Indeed, riding through city center Amsterdam without a bell is suicide. Foreign pedestrians don't really look out for cyclists when they cross a street.

    I've a funny anecdote about this: I'm Dutch and do my daily commute on my casual bike without a helmet. In the weekends I ride my road bike and wear a helmet. I've once had an acci…

    I'm one of those people who dislikes pigeons, and it's interesting to read that at least my belief that pigeons can spread disease doesn't hold much truth. Personally, I can't rela…

    As someone from Amsterdam who owns a car, commutes by bike, and rides a road bike for sports, my opinion is that it's mostly the road cyclists who create unsafe situations. Sure, c…

    I think it also makes a difference if you work with people across different timezones or not. Regular chatter might be good enough to communicate between people in roughly the same…

    > I agree. Both are great. It boils down mostly to: You make a couple of good points, but I think it's again down to your personal situation and taste that makes it "boil down" to …

    I don't think I have the same level of experience with support as you do, but in general my experience with Apple and Samsung is the same as yours. I never needed Google's support,…

    That's indeed a good reason to pick another domain. I hope non-gmail domains will become more common because of that. It might lower the barrier to switch for many people.

    I've been trying out Protonmail which I'm happy with, but in practice I'm still using Gmail. I'm reluctant to move away from my @gmail address, and inform all my contacts to use th…

    I switched to Firefox for Mac and iOS completely the moment Quantum came out of beta, and I really want it to succeed. However, I experience severe speed problems loading Google ap…

    Also consider Apple's "Start Developing iOS Apps (Swift)" tutorial. That's how I got started on Swift and Xcode. https://developer.apple.com/library/content/referencelibrary...
