I was reading your comment and wanted to comment about creatine until I saw it added at the end. With over 20 years of gym training and taking massive amounts of supplements, I totally agree. Apart from protein if you can't get enough from food, I find that everything else is either useless or not worth the price.

I eat out and travel a lot, I rarely use TripAdvisor anymore. When I want to find a decent restaurant nearby I open Google Maps, for hotels booking.com reviews haven't failed me yet. I mostly use TripAdvisor when I want to be more specific with the reviews eg. filter by couples in winter

Does it support presets similar to Lightroom? My workflow is pretty basic, I got about 10 presets I use on 90% of the photos I take, depending on the lens exposure, etc.

It could be that I have a loving family (including a cat I've raised since she was a kitten), I'm quite social and have lots of hobbies. Don't get me wrong, there's days when everything falls apart, but usually I see no purpose in being depressed. I only got one chance to live this day and I don't want to waste that time by being sad because life is meaningless.

Had one a few years ago and I became a nihilist because I couldn't really find a purpose for my existence. I'm not as ambitious when it comes to work. Switched to contacting as a 9 to 5 job and don't touch programming outside of that. I spend more time with family and friends, going to the gym and doing sports, traveling more.

I can see there's no Ruby SDK, but are there any plans to build one?

Can you quickly compare Atom and VSC for golang development? I've been using Atom with go-plus, and I'm quite happy with the setup. I'm wondering if there's anything I'm missing.

DAB radio in my car stopped working and it costs £650 to fix. The service guys said they have to replace the whole centre console. As I won't pay that much, it's FM radio or Bluetooth for me.

Is anyone using Vue with Rails? Is it easy to set up?

Why would they buy Twitter when they can easily create a new product, called Google++ that everybody can use and love?

Ember looks really bad.

By looking at the comments you'd assume a new version of Phoenix got released.

It's very easy for an outsider to judge it like that. You can't compare the UK with an ex-communist, very religious country. These things can't really change overnight, it takes a few generations. So yeah, I wouldn't advise any gay people to go to Romania.

A friend of mine works at an insurance company and used Testicle as a test name. It wasn't that funny when a customer called his workplace asking why he got a letter that starts with "Hello Mr Testicle".

Windows pushed me to Linux, and Linux pushed me to OSX.

I'm using Uber quite often, but mostly to get home from central London. I live in zone 5, and I rarely find one around there.

Unfortunately, a lot of the drivers are very unskilled. I once almost crashed into a fence that the driver somehow didn't see. Another time, the GPS took the driver to a dead-end road, so I had to tell him to drive back and follow the road. When I mentioned that he has to turn right, he turned right straight away, on the wrong side of the road. I almost collided head-on with another car.

Maybe I've been unlucky, but these drivers need to be evaluated somehow. I was reading Shortlist the other day, and apparently it takes more than two years and around 20,000 miles on a scooter around London to pass the black cab driver test.

It's still beta it seems. I used PG Commander, but it was too basic.

Two years ago I switched from PHP and MySQL to Ruby and PostgreSQL. The only thing I'm missing is Sequel Pro. PG Admin is ok, does everything I need, but that interface is ugly and unintuitive.

Highcharts makes this page impossible to scroll on mobile.

Can't really think of any features now, because I like the default sound and I wouldn't want to customise it. I'm just thinking of bug fixing and future proofing the app.
