This guy is super cool. I reached out to him a while back to provide feedback and we ended up chatting back n forth for a few weeks. Hope you're well my friend!
Reminds me of this video that came from University of Michigan during one of California's fire season when many fires were ablaze and air quality was terrible:
Thanks Ted for the update. I bought my io domain from you guys many years ago when it was $70 or so. Thanks for keeping the price low over the years and for the update.
Crazy. Good for them. It's like we forget about big tobacco. From a health/social point of view I'm glad they coming out ahead of everyone else. Curious how it will play out in the end, and if the Mayor intends on signing it.
This is awesome!! really. like really. Great job! As a power user myself, I tend to go for the CLI style of view, in most cases that txt heavy.
I do have one question. <!here> is how you notify everyone in a channel about your msg. Can you customize this in the settings? otherwise, its a small adjustment I can make as you already have an app that I like more than the native slack app on macOS.
Binance standing strong. I'm glad to see what I already believed. The company leadership is solid, and, CZ, continues to build a robust, secure exchange. Removes coins that are crap, always keeps up to date with posts, maintenance updates, new listings, etc.. and hardly ever crashes under extreme loads. (remember 2017?).
Amazing app. I was in Bordeaux, having dinner, time slipped away, drank too much...what to do? HotelTonight. I would find something, book it, and be done. Back to dinner.
I did this 7 different times all around France. It was a perfect experience. The fact that the UI/UX makes super duper easy to view, book, set, & forget. I think its better than opening a chrome tab or any other mobile app thus far.
Don't even try to compare to other sites desktop experience. I can book everything before you would launch a chrome tab. Lastly, every time I showed up to the reserved hotel (usually later), everything was taken care of and never was my reservation, lost, not taken, or a problem with rooms. THE UI/UX is the reason this app is so amazing.
I do not know specifically as I have not read Apple Maps policy but to choose Apple Maps over Google Maps says a lot. I use google maps personally. Apple maps is getting better, but it's not google maps. So one can assume, the choice to choose apple over google means, IMHO, is that with Apple Maps they do not track as much as google would/does. Apple stance on privacy, publicly, has been pretty good. Tracking is everywhere and DDG still is sticking to their privacy first method.
Lastly, I love that I can dump random searches from my weird brain into DDG without the feeling that I'm giving some random machine, data that at some point can tell someone what I may want or do or have searched. Everyone knows what you're doing on the toilet, everybody poops, but we still close the door for privacy.
A+ DDG! I have been using DDG (duck duck go) since Gabriel created it in 2008. It’s been my default search on all my devices. When I need to route searches through Google, I do, as Google is still king at knowing and giving you the exact results you want, whereas DDG, gives you great results, with a different algorithm on the type results plus the added security of what DDG is about. They don’t track you. They don’t save your searches. I don’t use apple maps as i use android, but I like that DDG continues to go against the grain and choose privacy over comfort.
Lastly, I know the bulk of my searches go through DDG so I don’t have to think about what I searched, on what devices, was it on a public net, was VPN enabled?? etc etc.. What are you thoughts? Do you use DDG?
Great summary @patio. I was just telling some friends about it..simple bank, offers 2% on checking with certain balances met, and I experienced similar to example above.
AT&T continues to act like an old dinosaur with it's crude business tactics, shady telecom deals/mergers and practices.
Why hurt customers? This looks bad regardless who's right.
Engineering is the lifeblood of a great tech company. That is why we hire the best engineers, no matter where they live. We believe small teams work best and fastest, allowing individual engineers to have the biggest impact possible. We hire engineers who learn fast, have great technical judgement, a bias toward shipping and passion for software. We value these characteristics above expertise in a given domain or with a specific language.
We do most of our work in JavaScript (webpack/babel/ES6/ES7/React), NodeJS and Go. We are also heavy users of AWS Kinesis/EMR, ElasticSearch, c3/d3.js, Vagrant, Travis CI, Puppet, Ruby/Rails and AWS.
Moovweb does big things. We autoscale thousands of servers and serve billions of pages per month. We push the limits of what can be done with the front-end of the web. We created a full customer-facing analytics platform on AWS and two Sass libraries: Libsass, the most popular engine for the Sass CSS pre-processor, and gvm, which is rvm for Go.
The author makes a few good points. Let's not forget though that Android OS still is waaaay more customize-able, and can be made more secure than iOS. Passcode on boot? Yes. I can choose what I want on my phone. I can choose to root my phone, just like a computer, with android, I can have full control of everything. Apps, defaults, kernel, etc.
Now, having said all that, for the average grandma I would also recommend an iPhone. Android OS/play store/xda is still the wild west, and you can be compromised easier, if you don't know what you're doing.
