I've had to do the same this summer in the UK. It's the first time we've had weather hot enough to trigger a problem, but it has been CRAWLING. :(

I do fear that cars are going to have the opposite problem to phones... Where Apple sacrifices battery life for unnecessary thin-ness, I fear car companies will sacrifice it for unnecessary speed and size. Edit: and who knows what'll h

Isn't the answer simply that he doesn't want to be? I'm sure I've seen him answer this question in interviews in the past.

It would prove tricky to do home deliveries at night when everyone's asleep...

How do you go about doing such a thing? My Nexus 9 could do with a new lease of life...

Couldn't that be an opportunity though? Are you more likely to notice 'the new thing' from Atlassian, or when someone says "Woah, have you seen how much they've improved HipChat?"

Ha - Sorry if I sounded confrontational... I was actually agreeing with you. As it happens, another great place to learn these skills is by volunteering with youth military cadet forces (in the UK, the Army, Air or Sea cadets.) I'm not

Really, any branch of the military in any country in the world. They all teach the same.

I got the impression that he was aware of it, but had no reason to remember the specifics of it. He knew it sounded about right, which is what I'd expect from a CEO months (or years) after the fact.

Good news - The next Apple Watch will be thinner! Oh, you didn't ask for it to be thinner?

Do you never worry about missing a family emergency call? Like an accident or death or similar? I don't accept general calls overnight, but I'd hate to miss the call.

The other comments don't mention this, but it's also a new UK bank. They're going through the official approval process right now to be able to offer current accounts, overdrafts and so on.

Can't help but notice that the new backup monitoring tool suggests that the latest PGSQL backup is almost six days old... Is that correct? http://monitor.gitlab.net/dashboard/db/backups?from=14859419...

Presumably this tool is not for Windows sysadmins, it's for Linux/Unix sysadmins who also have to manage some Windows machines...

We did this - Cancelled Sky in favour of Netflix + Now TV's Entertainment bundle. Not looked back, despite the many, many calls from Sky.

In part at least, because two of those countries are NATO members and thus all other NATO members have a duty to protect them.

I'd suggest you have a long, detailed, open and honest conversation with this person about the future of your company and your working relationship. Part of being a responsible co-founder is dealing with problems head on, and finding a

I've had no problems with USB-C on my Nexus 5x, personally. Certainly 100x better than Micro USB. I don't think as a connector it has the polish of the lightning adapter, but I also don't think it would be a disaster if Apple

Docker ID: dancryer I'd love to test this out as a replacement for the Vagrant + VirtualBox set up we use currently to manage the development of PHPCI. :) Thanks!

I really love the branch-level access control on Bitbucket. Being able to say that developers A,B,C have access to the repo, but only A can push to master, is incredibly useful.

A better petition would have been to ban <IE10 use within Government organisations. There's no way in the world that the Govt. could ban IE outright.

Should have mentioned, we're on Github, of course: https://github.com/block8/phpci

Hey Aruggirello - I'm one of the core developers of PHPCI ( https://www.phptesting.org ) I really like the sound of #1. Would you consider building a PHPCI plugin for it? I think it would be quite popular, especially the vers

There's a big part of it that is based on the incorrect assumption that if someone is in the office 9-5, they are working 9-5. That and the ability to directly monitor people, interrupt them whenever you want to, and so on. The other p

Thanks dalke, that's really interesting... I can only imagine the number of heated arguments this has caused internally for Amazon!

Why don't employers in Colorado consider offering more remote working positions? Employees that enjoy their Colorado-based job might be more inclined to consider relocating....

I would say yes. PHP Storm, if nothing else, is a lot more system friendly for me than any other IDE I have tried (incl. Aptana, Zend Studio, Netbeans, etc.)

I noticed that on one of my accounts the other day... I thought it was just a quirk in Chrome on my machine. No idea why the change. :s
