Our society is teaching us to seek money, power, intelligence, beauty, bodily satisfaction, all of which will never satisfy us.

“If you worship money and things — if they are where you tap real meaning in life — then you will never have enough. Never feel you have enough. It’s the truth. Worship your own body and beauty and sexual allure and you will always feel ugly, and when time and age start showing, you will die a million deaths before they finally plant you. On one level, we all know this stuff already — it’s been codified as myths, proverbs, clichés, bromides, epigrams, parables: the skeleton of every great story. The trick is keeping the truth up-front in daily consciousness. Worship power — you will feel weak and afraid, and you will need ever more power over others to keep the fear at bay. Worship your intellect, being seen as smart — you will end up feeling stupid, a fraud, always on the verge of being found out. And so on.” ― David Foster Wallace,

Take a look at the Annoy library https://github.com/spotify/annoy, implemented by a developer from Spotify. It uses K-nearest neighbour to find close data points.

We migrated from Drupal to Django a few years ago and haven't been happier. Sites have become easier to maintain, new features are developed faster and designers find Django templates easier to work with.

We found Drupal's hooking system a pain to work with and it made debugging incredibly difficult.

We were using Drupal 6 at the time, not sure what has improved since then.

And here I am trying to eat less meat and more seafood thinking it's more healthier.

It's clear, easy to read and junior developers can pick it up easily and contribute code sooner.

Can anyone recommend any books/podcasts/blogs on improving in arguments?

Like what the others said, who are your target customers? Where can you market to them directly? Do they hang out on instagram, twitter, facebook, particular subreddits? Find social influencers who have audiences that will benefit from your product.

AWS provide free tier usage, so that may be a good place to get some experience. Spin up some instances, provision your own web servers, database and load balancer with ansible. Create deploy scripts with ansible that pull in your latest code into each of your web servers and then create a script that can roll back your code to a previous deploy.

Currently just use time machine to backup my iMac

National Microwave, still going strong after 30+ years

The most useful feature of tmux for me is the ability to switch between different projects effortlessly. Within a session i would have multiple windows, one for each project. Within each window i would have one pane for editing code and another pane running a development server. If you've used macos multi desktops you can think of a session as a macos machine, a window as a desktop, and a pane as a application window. And everything is persistent so you can detach from the session and reattach and all your windows and panes will be there as you left it.

I purchased a new Macbook and the magsafe is the feature i miss most about my old Macbook. The current USB-C connector doesn't have a light to indicate that the Macbook is charging, it only has a faint beep when you plugin the USB-C.

In Australia if it's telecommunications related, raise a complaint to the Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman (TIO).

For anything else raise a complaint to Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).

Bought a base model 12 inch Macbook a few weeks ago and love it. Haven't had any issues with performance so far, although I haven't tried any IDEs yet, just been coding in iTerm2 and Vim.

Everyone is saying not to use hamburger menus. What is a good alternative?

How advanced is the segmentation in mailtrain? Can it segment lists like (ListA + ListB) - ListC

We're currently using Interspire Email Marketer and the segmentation feature is quite limited.

I would recommend Foundation Training exercises for anyone with bad posture or back issues. I've been doing Foundation Training for the past couple of weeks and it has definitely helped with my posture. You can watch how to do their main 'Founder' exercise on youtube.

I'm working on my own minigames with spritekit and love these tips!

Does anyone know of any other blogs/books to read with handy tips on game design?

It is down for us as well....

I too tried using Autolayout when developing my 3rd party iOS Keyboard. It took a good 2-3 seconds for my keyboard to load on an iPhone 4s when using Autolayout. Autolayout doesn't seem to be an ideal solution for views with many elements.
