Yes, but they recently had a major outage that caused a lot of issues for me. I have since reverted back to the Comcast defaults of 75.75.75.75

There's a new term for this type of software distribution. Sponsorware. Wherein, the maintainer only open sources the project if they get enough people to pay them a monthly sponsor fee.

In case anyone forgot, Asana was founded by Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz.

I think your approach is off. If you're serious about buying, you should state your price, and ask if they accept. Not play hardball and ask them to come up with a number.

I bought my last new car with price negotiated on the phone before even showing up at the dealer.

The hardball approach never worked for me. It's best to just know your max OTD (Out the door with taxes and fees) price and offer that.

It always blows my mind when people complain about free services, and products are no longer going to be free. I learned that the free tier based customers, are the worst to support when I built Amezmo. Just like with the MailGun pricing changes, we'll have the people complaining about how it's no longer free.

How does 1Password compare to LastPass?

For one, LastPass _always_ freezes Chrome on me a few times a day.

Each morning.

1. Take a shower 2. Clean up the kitchen 3. Make coffee 4. Check email while coffee is brewing

This sounds like a solution looking for a problem.

IP addresses are recycled.

I thought my issue was with Comcast, then I realized I'm using CF's DNS entries for my home network. I removed those 1.1.1.1 entries and some sites are working.

Dang, I'm pretty disappointed in CF. I've never experienced this much an effectful DNS outage.

Dns issues for sure

#2 is a true story. GovWorks was a real startup.

After the company failed, the cofounder, Kaleil Isaza Tuzman, went on to become a convicted felon as of 2017.

Depending on your business model, a sign up can be considered a conversion, or not. If you're selling a subscription service, a sign up would not be considered a conversion, in my view.

My favorite way to use jq is as follows:

`tail -f my-log-file.json | jq`

This can be great if you've setup Nginx to log as JSON.

Shift+V is something modern editors still don’t get right.

This is my favorite and most useful Vim command.

Nice list. Recently, I loaded all the prices into an Excel document to make things easier for projecting costs and determining prices. I always use the following formula for estimating monthly costs on Amezmo.

$Hourly * 750

750 being the number of hours in 1 month.

It looks like they still haven't fixed the Power on thunderbolt failed issue.

Imagine an internet where small businesses don’t have websites anymore. Their only options are to be listed on DoorDash and GrubHub.

Of course people go to websites still. I find your question uninformed.

For a great introduction tutorial, check out "Let's build a compiler". It's an excellent and simple introduction to compiling and emitting code.

So with Stripe, is it industry practice to keep the fee when refunding customers?

For example, if I return something to Best Buy, are they still paying that 2.9% fee to their CC processor?

This happens to me, but only when I’m connected to my LG ultra fine. I can’t reliably reproduce it. Can you elaborate on how you did it?

GitHub Apps has per repo authorizations...

I think the OP may have just made a mistake. As a native speaker, his sentence is wrong. "It took" is perfect paste tense. I think their intent was to say "It will have taken, (future perfect), or "it will take" (simple future).

What language are you using?

Maybe we need a Doctor bootcamp?

Here's something that you should remember about using pipes and fork(2) in Python 3: By default, O_CLOEXEC is passed to the pipe(2) system from the CPython runtime.

This means, that reading the read end of the side in the parent process after you forked will not work. Thefore you should explicitly change fctl flags and remove os.O_CLOEXEC:

  fcntl.fcntl(readfd, fcntl.F_SETFL, fcntl.fcntl(readfd, fcntl.F_GETFL) & ~os.O_CLOEXEC)

Legally, does the state and federal goverment have the power to control the movement of people?

Does the state have the power to control my movement from my own home to the end of the street for my daily walk?

Does it suggest they're aware of the consequences though? Not suggesting that they don't understand seriousness of asking for a shut down doesn't suggest that they do. The "seriousness" of a shut-down shouldn't be silenced.

Exactly. Programmers and other tech people can work remote all day. But what about truck drivers, service industry workers, hair dressers, and more? People like this Twitter [0] use seem to suggest a shut down wouldn't have any negative effects because they can work from home.
