Old page, new wrapper. The 1999 version...

On the surface, this looks very similar to Twig, a PHP template engine also inspired by Jinja.

> Now, whenever I start ``mutt``, I am prompted for my 1Password Master Password and not my Gmail password.

So I guess it is useful for staying in context when needing a password at the command line.

It would be helpful if the SwiftKey video (iOS) actually demonstrated the keyboard.

You reminded me of this Reddit comment: "No More Zero Days"

So, a date parsing error?

Perhaps a date parsing error?

The "Lancelot" (line item from order) manual?

Looks like "Phone 31x" under the email address, which is consistent with St Louis area code of 314.

Why aren't these parties using the telephone (or similar) to communicate? It seems like when things get to this level, talking makes the most sense.

No reply to my important email. That warrants a phone call in my book?

Email is convenient, but it may not be optimum all the time.

Goddammit, let's all take a vacation.

Auto-prefixer might help...

Sounds like what ice cream trucks have been doing forever.

I'm trying to do the same after ten years of running a web agency. I had some successes, but I also made plenty of mistakes along the way since I was learning while doing. Ultimately I couldn't make it into a viable business.

At first, it felt like a hindrance, a decade-long black dot that I wanted to somehow hide. Now I'm proud of the period -- provided jobs, mentored, made things, etc. -- so it is easier to talk about.

I'm not going the hide that period. I'm going to be frank about it once I hit the streets. I made a lot of mistakes and learned a lot of hard lessons, lessons that should help in whatever my new capacity is.

So I guess my advice is to be honest about those self-employed periods. They are what they are.

Build your own...

Agreed, but I'll stick with YAML.

I love yaml because I can see it, and it (usually) makes sense. Same thing with Markdown. They both visually represent the data/content in a manner that my brain gets.

This seems less obvious (or slower to digest) but I've stared at yaml and markdown for a while now.

This is handy for remote tutoring. I dropped a math worksheet image onto the whiteboard. Imagine working remotely with a student. Here's a static 'snapshot'.

Tried this years ago over dialup with some MS app. The technology was flakey and kept getting in the way. This works great.

Re: #2, feature exists. See Options > Insert Pic.

I don't use it for this, but the Vigil App (iOS) will monitor and report SSL errors. It's a pretty basic app, but it is also set-it-and-forget-it easy.

No affiliation, except long-time customer, but I always pimp FreshBooks whenever invoicing comes up. They've been around a while and have a solid product.

Do yourself a favor and check them out if you're shopping for this type of service.

I was curious as well, here's a shop I found with what appear to be the products from the tutorials..

Came back with the same feeling. My guess is that it is a self-hosted personal notebook of sorts that supports Markdown entries and photos. Maybe?
