I was part of Intel's mass layoffs in 2016. I hated my job at the time, but looking back now I wish I was back in the spot where my compensation was not quite "ridiculous", but great. I went to a startup after and it was ter

Signed up this morning for the service. I should have the gateway next week. A few things to note 1) The gateway has built in wifi (and is provided free) 2) It provides 2 ethernet ports 3) You use an app to see most of it (how much data y

I got an Acer C720A 5 years ago and tried to do that. I sideloaded linux on an SD card. I was able to do web dev and hybrid app development (I worked for Intel at the time). It worked fine for what I needed. I got my wife a Samsung Chrom

I'll second this. I put myself in a downward spiral from bad sleep and being dependent on caffeine. I'm now aware of how I "feel" when I'm just really tired.

Any current or former employee will all tell you the same; Intel did NOT forget to mention this. After the fiasco with compilers and chips in the past, they have to go through rigorous approval for any marketing claims. This was 100% plann

Facebook did this years ago. It went through your contacts and updated any info (pictures, phone, email) to match what they had in Facebook.

Call your local USPS office tell them you are going to file a formal complaint/grievance to Amazon about the delivery. The driver can get reprimanded for it. Amazon Prime deliveries are not a joke to them. Source: both my parents j

Intel is not leading by example. They are trying to make up new markets and push OEMS to it. The core of Intel is used to the "WinTel" generation where they could strong arm vendors into doing whatever they want. They are havin

I have a 2009 MBP that I use at home. Still does a great job for what I need and I'll do some iOS development on it. Newer computer is a Lenovo Flex 3 with Win 10 I got for under $500. I've been on a MB/MBP for almost 10 ye

I'll second this. Titles vary across company size, and even then are different from company to company (e.g a Principal Engineer at Intel would not make PE at Google). I was a Staff Software Engineer at Intel (level above Senior Soft

Ive been looking for the same thing. Tried dokku and it was painfully slow. Tried rolling my own solution via git hooks but other devs had problems with execution. I would love to hear more about people running dokku on Digital Ocean (I

You can cruise and do nothing. I worked at Intel for 3.5 years and watched "old white guys" collect $200k+ in pay/bonus/stock and do about 1 month of real work. But it is soul sucking...if you piss the wrong people off

My wife got a pebble time last year after upgrading her OG pepple. It scratched like crazy and had tons of issues. She bought a Garmin Vivoactive after xmas and both of us havent looked back. We get 2-3 weeks pf battery with moderate gps

I still use my 2009 MBP. I upgraded to an SSD drive and 8 gigs of ram. I don't game on it, but I can do almost all of my development on it. I'll admit it's slower then my 2013 MPB at work, but I see no reason to spend more

I was recently in vegas. You can get hotel rooms cheap, but they have the tax and entertainment fee's that add up quickly. My problem with AirBnB was the $200 cleaning fee for a two night stay. So far, it's been extremely hit or

I did 23andme and then talked my dad and uncle into doing it. Found out a lot of "obvious" stuff we were genetically predisposed to, but it was nice to finally have scientific proof. Like you said, it makes it easier to prepare

I have no affiliation with GoDaddy, but they've been making strides recently to change it. They acquired Media Temple in 2013 and most people do not even know it. I talked to a few people from MT and they said GoDaddy Corp has been m

Companies have been doing this for a long time in the UIWebView. At a previous job, we offered this service and called it "live update". Never ran into any issues with Apple denying apps because of this. Phonegap build has a fe
