At my first job, I used to grind out work, staying hours past when most people went home. For me, this was the best time to actually get work done without the distractions. But I remember my project manager, who was twice my age, getting pi

Great idea, but doesn't deliver. I use Spotify and sometimes I wish I could add songs into my playlist that are only on Soundcloud. I installed the app, ran several searches for songs and artists that I like, and nothing returned.

Redbox is not that bad. Yes they have a lot of crap but their selection is growing (they even have games). There are some bigger budget movies that I wanted to see but didn't feel like paying full price when it was in theaters.

Great work Tim! Can you elaborate more on some things and see if I can use your app to replace some of our current tools? My church as a whole is actually using http://www.churchcommunitybuilder.com/ as a directory and it&#

Here's a basic plunker I threw together. It has no loops or timers so it's all click based... but is this on the right track? http://plnkr.co/edit/7kEhr0fYIMNbL40Uedwn?p=preview

What I do in crawling traffic is stay in 1st gear at a steady pace and stay in the same lane to reduce the annoyance of starting & stopping so much. You'll notice that large semi trucks do this too. It really benefits everyone if m

Actually I think Webflow can be a useful tool for if you're a developer who wants to learn how to design a prototype. I struggle with visualizing a new site without a mockup or style tile for reference. Webflow's UI is intuitive -

You do save time on daily commutes because you're not including the cost of getting stuck behind lines of dumb drivers. You don't always get to go a smooth 70mph. Going faster (even if just by 5pmh) can get you ahead of a car. Tha

I speed for my own safety. 90% of the people I see driving just live in their little box, tunnel visioned directly ahead, with no situational awareness of the cars around them. I feel safer speeding ahead and creating as much space as possi

For diagnosis you need to go to a hospital that does sleep studies. They will hook you up with a sleep apnea machine and sensors and they will monitor your sleep overnight. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea at around 20, which is rare for a

Amazing resource! Thanks for the link and keep doing what you do. Although, how are these organized? The colors seem to imply some kind of grouping, but besides "the big 3" at the top, the rest seems to be a random order. Maybe gr

I also use webflow but it definitely seems geared toward small agencies. The individual pricing plan is too much. Again I love the tool and would gladly pay for if the individual plan's cost went down.

Fontawesome icons can be set to any color you want with CSS. EDIT: My mistake, the website was down but I see now how it has multiple colors in the same icon. I would still stick with FA though.

$500k is not going to ruin the game. That's chump change at the higher ranks. What is going to ruin the game is R* focusing on GTA$ instead of fixing the serious gameplay flaws like keeping your friends in one session and giving worthw
