    I just finished "Becoming Steve Jobs" by Brent Schlender and Rick Tetzeli. Not a full bio but has some great stories about Steve Jobs at NeXT, Pixar, and his return to Apple.

    I have this eerie suspicion that GDPR cases will be a haven for trollish and/or opportunist behavior. Instead of huge corporations having to shell out significant money to swallow …

    Honest question: is it worth calling my Congress person if they are already vehemently against repealing the current net neutrality rules? Does it count for anything?

    I'm not sure I understand the complaints. What will a "stable" tag offer that isn't available already via dev builds? Are there things that are limiting your productivity or effect…

    Looks very promising! Are there limitations on the length of recordings?

    I'm not sure if this is addressing the question precisely, but I think it's relevant. One of the main things I've learned over the years is that you have to be your own advocate wh…

    I try to use Android Pay when I can just for the security benefits of the one-use tokens. Sometimes it's easy, other times it takes forever.. particularly if my cell reception isn'…

    Surely it's Amazon's fault that Prime Video doesn't work on Chromecast. Amazon would get a lot more of my digital goods dollars if they took a "Kindle" approach to streaming video …

    So this process re-introduces the brine back into the ocean, in turn making the ocean water more salty. What type of ecological ramifications does this have on the wildlife in that…

    I'd love to see more development in the Git GUI space; a GUI really enabled git adoption and comprehension on my team. SourceTree has been my go-to for over a year now and it gener…

    That's exactly what hotfixes are for. A completed hotfix will merge directly into develop and master simultaneously (practically speaking). This allows you to keep your unrelated d…

    I've used Sublime for a number of years now and have recently (over the past few weeks) been making a concerted effort to use Atom as my daily driver (mostly because I appreciate t…

    I'd prefer a keyless system over the "key with anti-theft chip" alternative. I just had to replace one of these keys for my car and it was over $300 USD. That much for just a KEY t…

    I've found you'll never get a 100% accurate representation with these "emulators," but it's certainly a good starting point. You're better off using a service like BrowserStack for…

    I've never heard of Patch. It's unfortunate that I had to learn of them this way, because the premise seems useful. I don't think I would participate now based on these bad vibes.

    Regardless of the product itself, I think the name alone is going to turn people off.

    Google Music, Hulu Plus, Netflix, and Pandora as well. I'd be shocked if it didn't offer more services in the next few months. EDIT: And as of today, HBO Go.
