    Absolutely, we could all use a bit more focus on health in our life. I'm the same way; the extent of my exercise is taking the stairs instead of the elevator, and my girlfriend dra…

    Another user suggested using Ethereum smart contracts for this. I'm not terribly familiar with Ethereum, but I wonder if the contract could be designed to automatically forward to …

    Glitchy on Chrome 57. When I load a page to build, I'm unable to scroll more than 1/4 of the page then it jumps back to the top.

    I found Papers, Please to be a really fascinating game. I've been on a indie binge lately (Firewatch is another recent favorite) and I felt Papers, Please had a really great story …

    I spent a lot of time researching VPNs and trying to find one I felt like I could trust. Unfortunately, if you're being truly paranoid (which I feel everyone whose considering a VP…

    Anecdotally, a family member that regularly travels with their small dog experiences much less scrutiny. Most times they're asked to hold the dog in it's crate and walk through the…

    I wonder if this change breaks the extension, ha. I can appreciate the flexibility you're offered even with the A-list clientele you have. In a world of "move fast and break things…

    Real headline is "WikiLeaks Dumps Docs on CIA’s Hacking Tools" Russia is only mentioned once in the article.

    Has Wikileaks ever published a bad leak? I'm not talking about their write-ups and descriptions -- which I sometimes find sensationalized -- but the raw data. I don't remember any …

    Thanks, that was the answer I was looking for. I appreciate the openness! In a perfect world engineers would have to request elevated permissions from a manager/team lead to query …

    If anyone from Penny is still around, I have a question. In using the app an error occurred and Penny apologized and said someone would look at it shortly. About 15 minutes later I…

    This is really neat; having just signed up I'm yet to see how useful it actually turns out to be. I'm really happy to see startups using Plaid. I tinkered with building a budgeting…

    This is really neat as a technical demo. What's your anticipated real-world use for something like this? My first thought was that it would be fantastic in a case where I needed to…
