This seems like a fun project and a great way to learn Kubernetes, but if I'm dropping this much money on it, I'd like it to have some productive purpose afterwards.

I'm a full-stack web dev primarily using node/react/postgres. I've also got some projects currently hosted on a Linode instance. Ideas on fun/productive uses for this cluster after I've built it and messed around with Kubernetes?

One I just discovered recently is ctrl+shift+v to cycle through code recently copied to the clipboard.

I had one track down the phone number for my employer, call here, and ask the secretary to speak with me while refusing to say what the reason was until he spoke with me.

Sensationalist bs. It'd take some pretty impressive programming to deal with issues like road construction, missing or faded road markings, unmarked dirt roads, and potentially outdated or incorrect maps.

The extent of the technological capabilities of a device like a smartphone are far from common knowledge for the typical user. An app can allow your phone to perform the functions of a gps, why can't it allow your phone to perform the functions of a radar detector? I mean even people who know enough about their devices to know that the idea of it acting as a radar detector is unreasonable may not know what their phone IS capable of. How more technologically proficient users do you suppose are there who are completely unaware of the fact that their phone might have a barometer?

It's really worth jailbreaking it, if only for the sake of installing google play.

It also drives me crazy when they play an ad before you can watch what is effectively an ad that you chose to watch (trailers, previews, etc.)

Homophobia has not been eliminated and nearly everyone here expressing disgust has also stated that they realize their disgust is irrational.

Windows still uses the hosts file in windows 8. I did a little looking around and it looks like Windows Defender automatically removes some hosts from the file.

I'd go with C#.

I kind of lost interest at that point. I'm not interested in managing another subscription for this.

Edit: It looks like it includes a hosted server. That makes more sense, but I'd prefer an option without it.

Why python? There are far more straightforward languages to learn with more beginner-friendly development environments. Seems like an unnecessarily frustrating place to begin.

If your primary use for a second display is email, then sure I guess it could just be a distraction. But when you're working with several applications at once to accomplish a single task, multiple monitors are a necessity. If you have ever spend any time at all doing data entry, it's immediately obvious how much more efficient it is.

I've been dying for a thicker phone in exchange for better battery life for quite a while now. Seems like this phone might negate a lot of that benefit with the much larger screen, but I wish more phones were willing to make that trade-off.

There's a massive difference between being harassed by a single individual who doesn't really know who you are and a massive group of people who know everything about you.
