It is based on a look up table. Each year starts with a 'day' (Sunday, Monday ..) and the pattern repeats every 7 or 8 years, so if you know the look up table for 7 or 8 years, you can go back forever.

You can also check if your son has "Eidetic memory" . It comes in very handy sometimes ;).

Forget about Smartphones, Binge watching in kids is what I am afraid of. There is more than enough content on Netflix to not get out of the house for years.

I love Apple Pay and use it all the time at the 'Giant' stores in North east US.

If there was a eighth one, I would add learning to touch type. Groking VIM becomes easy when you can type fast.

Lots of people had bad teeth and they did not want it to show up in the pictures.

Yes, I have the same questions and it also depends on your state laws.

Is this a problem with the laws of Nevada? Can it be prevented? Hopefully it is not exploitable in other states.

I saw .NET-Core and C#

How do you figure that? If you are in the 50th percentile?

I think Apple Watch series 3 is the best news. Imagine not having to carry your phone and look at it all the time.

Apple Watch is the new iPhone. The iPhone is becoming a home computer. Watch it.

I think Apple Watch with Cellular is the best news from Apple event today. No more tethering to your iPhone. Finally you can leave your iPhone behind.

It was said that they worked with some best Hollywood make up artists that make masks.

People can be having a 'bad face day' if the Face ID doesn't work fast enough.

or plastic surgery for that matter?

Schiller admits that 'evil twins' is a weak point.

Face ID = Where the camera watches you all the time.

I don't how it accounts for the fact that in coastal cities like Boston, the only direction you can travel is West (SW, NW) etc. So that kinda limits the area that you can cover in an hour.

I don't use Facebook or Messenger. I am glad that I am not on it. I just have to figure out how to get out of WhatsApp. I also noticed that Facebook eco system is becoming more closed (no access to Facebook pages unless you sign up etc) on trying to get more people on it.

The puzzles are similar to the ones on https://cryptopals.com. The first one involved a combination of caesar cipher and running a jar file. The second one looks to be related to timing attack.

I really like Ubuntu, but I don't think it is ready for everyday regular users.

I am surprised that 2% is not higher. There are very few alternative to Mac if you want a GUI and a UNIX like system. I really hope Apple invests in Mac. It used to be that Mac hardware was very innovative compared to Software but now, I like their Software (uniform experience on multiple devices) but the Hardware is lacking. Especially the drop of MagSafe and limited Memory and processor support on their New Macbook pros. But I haven't given up on Macs yet. Remember, 'An Apple a day keeps Windows away'.

DevOps is a such a broad term and can mean lot of things. If you are looking for something related to orchestration, I am putting together some Ansible recipes specific to AWS. It is here at https://github.com/gshakir/ansible-recipes

I think this might be a boost for modular housing and also including rent as part of salary, something similar like healthcare offered by employers.

Mongo has a document size limit of 16MB, so 'larger documents' need to be qualified :).

Wow, less than 6 hours of sleep. Is that sustainable?

How about Apple provide a VPN as part of the device? Remember Apple was the one that broke the telecom's dominance on the mobile market. I wouldn't mind paying Apple for the privacy.

Jekyll + S3 bucket's static website + Cloudfront

S3 bucket static website is great. I have also hosted React apps with full routing by setting 'error' page to 'index.html' on the S3 bucket properties.
