A few weeks ago I got a new laptop and downloaded a new version of Skype. It forced me to use a Microsoft account and I could not use my existing Skype name, which had all my contacts. There was no apparent way to move my contacts. I don&#x

I think this is one of the consequences of Carnism[1]. For most people, it's a lot harder to eat or exploit someone with a personality and rich emotional life, than something that has no feelings or desires. This creates all sorts of c

I will definitely code, but without the pressure of making money or scaling or using the latest JS framework.

Same here. I'm hoping to retire by selling my current SaaS business (which uses vanilla ASP.NET/Web API/IIS) so I don't have to get back in the market and learn the new way of doing things.

It depends on what your goals are. I'm a C#/Javascript developer myself and I have tried to start a few side projects using new technologies in the past, but I noticed that I spent a lot of time fighting with the new framework&#x2

I don't think this problem will ever be solved while you can easily find books written by MDs arguing that vaccines are unsafe. Alienating civilians who believe in what these doctors say is probably not the best approach.

That must have been terrifying. Can you talk more about what happened between the moment the engine failed and the plane landed safely? How long did it take? Did the captain communicate with passengers frequently? How about flight attendant

We experienced similar attacks and the easiest solution that fixed the problem was to completely block China and some other countries at the firewall level. We are a B2B app in the US and never had a paying customer from Asia. It's bee

Does anyone know of a good alternative to Google Places Autocomplete API? Our app makes 25k requests per day. They had a free 150k limit per day, but now it seems like we are going from $0 to $1,800 per month, and this is not a core feature

My advice is to forget the website building aspect and turn it into plugins for Wordpress and the popular website builders. A website builder is not a good pick for a side project if your intent is to generate passive income. You have to b

I think it depends on how old the house is and what you are comparing it to (condo or detached house). We moved to a 10 year old farm house and the house maintenance has been easier than our older suburban home. Most maintenance time is spe

Yes. We moved to the Grey Bruce area, which is 2h northwest of Toronto. It's where we used to come for vacations. We bought a nice house that would have costed at least 3x more in the GTA. The quality of life has improved considerably.

I'm hesitant to get this because the touchpad looks huge compared to my 2014 MacBook Pro. I'm looking at where I rest my hands and I think I would be constantly touching on the touchpad while typing. Does anyone have this issue?

We moved close to the Bruce Peninsula, Ontario, and we love it so far. Pros: - Cheaper than most places in Ontario. We live in a great house that would cost at least 3x more in any GTA suburb. - Lots of nature and places to explore all aro

For me it used to be Visual Studio + ReSharper, but last month I switched to Rider and it's been amazing. It's like VS + ReSharper without the performance issues.

There are many good rational arguments in favor of veganism. "You eat death, you get death" is not one of them.

Not necessarily an idea for a startup, but I want a Chrome plugin that changes the click behavior of an email address. If I click on the domain part of the email address, I want it to open that domain's website on a new tab.

I wouldn't make blanket statements about a vegan diet because there are several types of diets that are compatible with a vegan lifestyle. I can eat Oreos and peanut butter all day and still be vegan. You must be referring to a whole f
