bullfight

I went ahead and registered by posting to facebook using http://www.paywithapost.de/ and received a ticket code.

After doing so I received an email saying my registration was incomplete and the email gave a link to complete my registration.

Clicking back through to pay with a post it looks like they still have my registration.

Maybe the email is going out prematurely before you have a chance to receive a webhook from pay with a post?

It would be really nice to have some info about each programming non-profit. E.G. Why they are in your donation list. What they do. Why you like them. Why I should donate to them.

They all sound really interesting, and I want to pick a good one to give too, but unfortunately I don't really know anything about any of them.

As it is now there is a huge cognitive barrier to completing registration. I want to give, but I don't know whom to give to. I could complete the registration by facebook/twitter, but I can afford to give a little bit and don't want to go the free route.

I came close to closing the tab, thinking I would come back later, but I also know I might forget and I don't want to miss out on what looks like a great con!

I think this kind of eating really follows from having a partner and a family. It is much harder to have the kind of motivation to do this on your own. In many cases however I think these are idealized meals, not necessarily everyday meals.

I imagine if they did a photo series on what the worlds bachelors ate for breakfast it would look much different.

P.S. Sorry to assume bachelor status.

I can only say this from experience traveling around the mediterranean, but this seems to be a pretty common breakfast.

Some olives, feta cheese, a boiled or fried egg, some sliced tomatoes and cucumber, fresh brown bread with butter and some jam or honey. Once prepared you can quickly make little sandwiches, and is quite tasty!

These meals are pretty easy to put together, when tomatoes are good my wife and I often switch off on making breakfast and can whip this up for ourselves pretty quick. It's much more enjoyable than our normal greek yogurt, granola, and fruit.

Just a heads up this page and the url download are over http, the https pages are totally broken. https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1222

This design radically reorients your attention to that which is in front of you thereby significantly reducing the chance that you will miss something or "not see" that ped/cyclist, etc.

In many intersections a big part of this includes clearly marking whom has the right of the way through an intersection negating the need for signals which leads to far less intersection congestion.

* As a pedestrian the ease of crossing at intersection is unmatched, no more walking halfway into the intersection to see around parked cars.

* As a cyclist it fundamentally transforms the experience. Every ride can be taken at ease and in comfort. No more fighting for your life.

* As a motorist you worry much less about hitting a cyclist or pedestrian because they are always in front of you where you can see them. NO more straining to check every blind spot 3 times before a turn.

Protected Bike lanes are great and hopefully we start getting Protected Intersections to go with them.

This site has a great video which describes the protected intersection. Having traversed them quite a bit as a cyclist, motorist, and pedestrian, they are delight to use.

I've found a lot of books by subscribing to the following subreddits. If see a book discussed enough or hitting enough lists I'll usually pick it up.

"...Journey before destination"

There is far too much pessimism her about the experience of reading novel series. I've massively enjoyed the experience of reading ASOFIA, the world building, character development, politics and intrigue.

The worlds in series like this are massive and the end of a series is the last chapter the author deigns to write. Sure they might be building towards something, but you can enjoy the series all the same without the "end".

I read 1-5 ASOFAI in 6 months, having started just before the series aired. Do I look forward to the next in the series, of course, but in the mean time I have read > 60 other books some of them 2 or 3 times.

Don't get stuck on one series, one author, or one genre, there is so much good fiction out every year that you will never be able to read it all.

This app seems to reverse the trend of separating NPR from local content as does the regular NPR app. When I use the regular NPR app I either listen to the local stream, or more commonly, grab all the newest segments from Morning Edition or All Things Considered, throw them in a playlist, and listen. In this way I miss all the local content.

This new app seamlessly mixes in content from your local station and features the local content prominently.

I think they have done a fantastic job here and are working hard to do good by their local stations.

When I started listening, the first thing it did was play a bump for my local station, I am really hoping this fully incorporates local content.

This has very little to do with some conspiracy between bankers and universities to indebt students and raise massive capital by massively expanding the university far beyond it's means.

Deep into this article the author hits on what is really at the core of steep tuition inclines. A rapidly reducing share of university funding coming from state governments turning once public institutions into defacto privatized universities.[1]

In this chart [2] UWashington lays out in 2013 dollars that total tuition per student has been around 17,000 for 25 years, however during that period the state contribution was reduced from $14,000 to $5000, while student tuition rose from $3,000 to $12,000

> "This is an important shift in who pays for higher education. In 1990, the state provided nearly 80% of the funding per student and UW students paid 20% of the funds. In 2011, the state will pay around 30% and UW students will pay 70%." [3]

This product definitely relies on the video to convey it's magic. If you don't watch the video, you won't get it.

I really like this. It seems to me to be an early approximation of Neal Stephenson's A Young Lady's Illustrated Primer from The Diamond Age.

A commensurate companion, guide, and teacher. Sure this may only be a few activities but the responsiveness and seeming magic to it is fantastic.

I particularly like that you can set down a toy in front of the camera and it renders out a flat illustrated version of that toy.

I think this is the first internet connected kitchen device that I have seen actually make it's use case for having an app or being connected.

I'm really impressed and while not having any prior experience with sous-vide I can really see making it part of my cooking process.

I just wanted to point out on the prep part and American families.

The time invested in prep for a device like this is hardly different that prepping a meal and throwing it in a crock pot before work. Crock pots are fantastically popular cooking devices found in almost every American's (middle america especially) kitchen and used on a regular basis.

Personally I have no experience with sous-vide nor am I very familiar to it. Watching he video I was intrigued but a little confused at what and how I could use a sous-vide cooker.

However connecting it and the process of using it to the very familiar crock pot I use at home instantly helped me to recognize the potential use of a device like this.

On point 2

I went through the same thing. Your card was declined because these donations are being routed through the Travis Foundation's Stripe account which is now based in Germany. As an international org based in Germany your bank/cc flagged the transaction as potentially fraudulent.

I don't think Rails Girls/Travis can do much about this, you need to call your bank to get them to allow the transaction.

Can you really patent the implementation of PID algorithm? There isn't really anything novel about the fact that it is on quadracopter platform as opposed to any other control system other than it seems to be well executed, fast, and effective.

Super simple interface, I like it. However it seems to be lacking an obvious way to leave your current conversation and enter a new one.

Definitely looking forward to seeing this progress. It certainly seems to fill a void especially in a world where it is quite common to share command line tools as seen earlier today in the post about "hr for your terminal"

These videos are great and look good in sublime.

However if I could offer a small critique, that currently the code is only legible with the video at fullscreen and not at all legible on a phone.

It would be nice if you used a smaller editor width of at 80 columns, and larger font, it would be much easier to read the code as you talk though it.

Thanks and I look forward to more videos!
