I have a leather Leap, Embody (every option), Aeron (every option; upgrade). I can agree, it's probably the better of these 3 I have. It's a tank and Steelcase told me it doesn't come apart and it's shipped assembled. My

All my others have been posted already, except: Shadows of the Empire [0] When I read it the intriguing parts were that it took place between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Also, I still play and love the game on N64 (also on P

I have a MacBook Pro 15", which is too big and actually pretty much resent and hate. an iPad Pro 11" which I absolutely love, but is abysmal and no where near any good for coding on. And currently eyeing that MacBook Air with a ma

How so? Intermittent fasting is basically skipping breakfast for most people. Wake up late or sleep in a little extra, maybe make some coffee, go to work or school. Something most teenagers and college students do or have been doing for yea

This is what I plan to do. I am trying to patiently wait for the Asus ROG version. It appears to have been delayed and there are 2 versions. One with a tripod and one with a typical iPad/tablet stand built into the cover. I'm most

Almost exactly same situation with exactly same salary. I work at a bootstrapped startup.

4-5 years doesn't sound significant to me. I still have an iPhone 6, bought new nearly the day it was released. It plays music, it does podcasts. I can text, answer calls. It's no longer supported by Apple. I was planning on upgra

Quora, Pinterest, and Instagram have been mentioned already, but I'd like to throw another one in this bucket: Amazon

Maybe this isn't the place to post this, but it's been on my mind, especially with the recent release of Catalina, iOS 13, and iPadOS and this post made me recall. With the hiring bar and exercises like FAANG put candidates throug

Can you please provide your plan and outline to get through it in a week that you used? From my experience if doing all the exercises a chapter a week is still a challenge.

I can agree with this. It's especially wonderful without aliasing on an even multiple Retina display. For example, 2x on a 5k Monitor (iMac, LG Ultrafine) or MacBook Pro. It's simple, clean, tried and true.

I moved from Austin Downtown to Minneapolis for almost this reason. I didn't want to buy a car either and many if not most of the jobs are up in Round Rock or too far to bike or walk. I now live downtown Minneapolis and it's been

I'm still rocking an iPhone 6 and Apple stopped updates for me. I can't install iOS 13. I honestly don't have much desire to upgrade. I only use it for Music and podcasts with the occasional call or text message anyway.

I'm a developer also. I have no issues with the Touch Bar. I kind of like it. I never used the F keys anyway. I mapped my escape key to caps lock. I view it as the next iteration or evolution of the basic fingerprint reader on many PC

Here I am with an iPhone 6 still. It plays music, like my iPod did. As well as podcasts. I don't use any apps otherwise that don't come with it from Apple. On the rare occasion someone decides to call me it answers, sometimes (it&

If this persons definition of social media is only Facebook and Instagram then I removed social media for the last 3 or more years. Removing these (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram) were nothing and easy for me. I just logged out and never both

Haha, you mention this, but I found it helps me find posts that slipped by my addiction. A blessing in disguise.

Can't agree. Coming from a Thinkpad (the standard for what makes a great keyboard), PowerBook Titanium (keyboard was bad, but nothing like the 2016/17 MacBook Pro), PowerBook 12 / 17 (my favorite), and the first MacBook Pro (

You could also walk into the Apple store. Go to the back corner. Pick up a box with a new battery in it for $119 (iirc). Buy it and walk out with a new battery. All in a single day. You could also order them online. Mind-blowing.

You get more than just the eco system which is must just part of the experience. The hardware is that much better. It boils down to you get what you pay for. I value the convenience of what I need or want just working as well as the quality

You mention the RAM and hard drive, but it irks me more my keyboard is not replaceable. It's the most used moving component of the entire unit. It's exposed and susceptible to damage the easiest. I've hated every MacBook Pro

When you say write down, do you mean design/list of tasks or literal code? I live in a major metro area, so working out in my condo isn't an option and I do like getting out since I live alone (I go every day). I pick up what I ne

I also was able to solve it in a couple/few min after seeing the comment. I did have a couple issues, index was off by one, and didn't catch an issue if I had already seen the substring using a brute force nested loop, but otherwi

Is the Stanford Algorithms course a good or equal substitute? I started the Princeton one, but the homework was... just not what I would have expected or often threw me for a loop.

I have come across cases like this in a couple interviews. What I did was do both. In those cases I often got an either an onsite and/or offer immediately.

I wish I had your problem. After full time at work, gym, any real life tasks I need to attend (groceries, eating, bills, cleaning, etc...) it can be rather difficult and feels like starting a large project (or any) is hopeless (relatively f

Car free in downtown Minneapolis for a while now and lease out my parking spot for $200/month. Don't see how it could be any more convenient, easy, affordable and stress free of owning a car. Winter is easy with the Skyway [0]. I&
