VMware is doing 30% off on Fusion.

I'm looking at it for some extra performance over VirtualBox, and so far it seems to deliver.

Not to hijack the thread, but I just created this thread to discuss the book deals in particular: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8671630

Which technical books have you recently read that could appeal to the HN crowd?

I expected more, nothing really interesting on that list. Just the usual suspects, the same old Mac software that's (1) always on sale or (2) bundled up every few months.

Several of the services here are pretty interesting (Slack, DigitalOcean, Algolia (they run HN's search)):

Pity that jetbrains didn't join the party (I know they are Czeck). At least, I got me some little snitch && pixelmator 50% off which it nice.

OP: There's a typo in the title for ReadKit:

> ReadKit RRS reader

(should read RSS).
