I recommend PNC's Virtual Wallet actually. It's not quite as nice as what you're describing here, but the main interface is a calendar which shows upcoming bill payments, scheduled ACH transfers, checks you've written, and your paycheck. It uses that to calculate a free balance before your next paycheck. It also has tools to schedule automatic transfers between accounts (checking/spend, reserve, and savings).

Their landing page for the product is absolutely awful: https://www.pnc.com/en/personal-banking/virtual-wallet-overv...

You can see screenshots of at least the mobile version on the play store though: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pnc.ecomme...

This reminds me of http://www.grepcode.com/, which I used a lot before I had an environment that auto-downloaded source.

I really like that grepcode lets you see which version and what repository matches what you searched. It can make finding why something doesn't work in a particular released version of a library much easier.

I still lend this book out to friends who want to learn HTML.

Like this? http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003XNGLJU

These are very common in Michigan, where I live

So, they decided the following must be true: - Textbooks are something that people want right away and can be delivered outside - Students are willing to pay a premium for fast delivery from a nearby location fairly often - A small helicopter is an efficient way to deliver thick paper books

I feel like they couldn't have chosen a worse product to deliver via drone.

I think the key is knowing what high school she went to. From there, you could possibly get yearbook pictures and student lists. Knowing an approximate age would narrow the possibilities significantly as well.

I think Amazon could make more money by offering an option to disable the ads for $x. Whoever is willing to pay is likely not someone to click on the ads anyway, but they avoid upsetting people who don't want to rent out their eyeballs.

I wanted two XML files defining issues and stances which I could do a diff on or as the basis of some application. This is just glorified HTML.

Why on earth would I want my camera to be running a full phone OS? It's one thing to build a camera into a phone for convenience, but when will having an OS and touchscreen in the back of my camera make something more convenient?

> a city car running on compressed air (as well as a battery-powered electric motor)

The range sounds implausible to me at any reasonable speed on compressed air alone. How is the electric motor involved? Is the air a backup for the battery or vice-versa?

Personally, I don't see games the same as other software. Generally, they are more like content (movies, music, etc). Especially in the world of game consoles, where the games come on read only discs.

Games that are able to be "modded" of course add additional value and surely open source games would only expand the possibility, but there aren't the same concerns of my work and data being locked away in a proprietary ecosystem. If a game from 10 years ago stops working, it is disappointing, but not debilitating.

I must say, this is at least as accurate as Klout! Let me down easy on my intelligence next time, but it's good to know I'm so attractive! http://quibird.com/MrSpandex

I really like the way Winamp handles shuffle. It takes the current playlist (whatever is selected to play), then shuffles it in memory for stable play order. If you select a new song manually, it will play that song, then resume the old play order.

Worst headline ever?

As far as products go, that's about the only thing he changed at all. I think it just is a way to differentiate between the "old" MS and the "new" MS in branding.

It's important to note that apps will work on both platforms according to this article. This sounds like a pretty minor issue to me if I need a new device for some of the newer features, many of which require new hardware anyway (SD card, NFC).

I understand that drones make aerial surveillance much cheaper and easier, but why specify drone surveillance and not aerial surveillance in general?

It bothers me that there is such a fear around drones. Please remember that many people would like to use them for far less nefarious purposes - real estate photography, farming, etc.

This seems like it would make malicious links easier to seem legitimate. If I see the Google favicon, I might assume it was Google without even checking the URL.

Request quote = out of my price range

Are there legal issues to think about when storing data on German servers?

Yelp has a Windows phone app. Even if it didn't, you can do that from a web browser too.

That font is almost impossible to read.

There have been several IaaS products I've looked at recently with no pricing info. I'm not going to invest in learning or coding to your system without pricing.

Someone should sell a conversion kit to make it a monitor. I'd drop $100 for that.

I'm so sick of websites not even attempting to render in a browser not in their whitelist. Please give me a button that says "I understand the risks, but I want to try anyway."

For those that are unfamiliar, SICP is a book - Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs

I don't understand how OpenShift is priced. The website does not seem to have any information on it.

Is this a joke?

Checking for null on every method invocation? I usually call methods for a reason and if my object is null, I have an error. If I have a situation where an object may be null, there will be specific handling for that case.

The other "patterns" are fishy too. How has this gotten so many points?
