Some top rated commands on 'commandlinefu.com' has saved many hours. The key sequence to kill a hung ssh connection has been a life saver.

I really like the Starbucks model, where you add the tip after the fact. If the drivers doesn't know who tipped them, then they would be nice to everyone.

It is a video and the secret is 'clinical depression'

Totally agree on Red card which gives you 5% discount and donates to your kid's school.

I recently bought Olive oil and a Nintendo wii game via Target with prices cheaper than Amazon. The web experience with Target has vastly improved. I am not sure what's Walmart experience is like.

Good move, but the damage has been done. My recent product search have 'incentivized' reviews and it has been very hard to make any decisions, so I have been double checking the reviews from other sources. Due to this, I also found that Amazon prices are no longer competitive and my recent purchases have been via Target with either free shipping or local store pickup with cheaper prices.

A codepen that goes along with every example would be cherry on top.

This has downstream implications on:

1) Voting and democracy. No one can easily buy off votes for Rs.500 or Rs.1000. 2) Real estate transactions. 3) Gold transactions. Now I bet you cannot sell off gold that easily as you would not be given cash in return.

This is interesting that is coming off following a tax evasion amnesty.

I am sticking with MBP for the combination of UNIX, MS Office and support for software like Turbotax etc. Ubuntu is not an option for me yet, since LibreOffice has lot of kinks. My only gripe is that processor and memory did not get an upgrade. Touch bar is a nice touch, we have to wait and see how it plays out.

Oh, I like Apple commitment privacy compared to MS.

Totally agree with you. Ubuntu needs to have a mainstream manufacturer to go big. MBP is perfect so far because of the combo of UNIX and Office products and support for various softwares.

It does looks like iMac clone. As they say, 'Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery'.

$3K is very expensive. Looks like they are catering to the iMac market. It should be interesting to compare with tomorrow iMac release lineup.

Yes, I agree that reviews cannot be trusted. When I was shopping for a probiotic, the 5 stars products were mostly filled with paid reviews where the reviewer gets the product at a discount for their "honest" review.

The manufacturers should add in the cost of recycling and also process recycling themselves as part of the product lifecycle. Not an easy thing to implement.

The site seems down.

This is great. I created a pull request for my S3 Infrequent Access calculator. https://github.com/open-guides/og-aws/pull/110

Any stats on Java losing ground? Java 8 is awesome with Lambda, Streams and Completable futures (Promises).

Using Jekyll, S3 and Cloudfront is another popular option. I found great themes on http://jekyllthemes.org/ . Also, Jekyll has support for seo etc.

Come work for the government. Help to save tax payer's money and get paid well. Yes, the pace is slow but you can get lot accomplished in-between things.

Yes, I flew 787 on BA, the experience was similar to 777. But A380 because of its sheer size the take off and landing is very comfortable, sometimes you don't feel a thing.

Same here. I was pleasantly surprised how comfortable that A380 was, both in economy and business. I was a big fan of Boeing 777s before. I hope Emirates continues to fly it. I highly recommend the business class experience on A380s, it is amazing when you are on a long haul flight.

I would investigate some home remedy. Not too strong. You got to be careful with the herbal stuff, they can do a number on your hormones if not carefully used.

Finally! . No more Triclosan and other dangerous stuff. I stopped using antibacterial soap a while ago. Switched to Method and have been using that brand for all my cleaning needs. Triclosan is also present in facial cleansing stuff and lots of other products like toothpaste etc. Scary stuff.

I saw it but due to security concerns I did not click.

I and some of my friends foresaw this day and used Google voice numbers. Still, time to look for an alternative.

"Who knows more about productivity than Microsoft" ?

It is in direct competition to the 'Surface Pro'.
