I see lots of alternative suggestions here, but not much mention of PocketSmith. I just ditched Mint a couple weeks ago after using them for 10 years and settled on trying PocketSmith. So far I've been pretty impressed. Their support has been on point, and they have some really neat forecasting features. There are some pain points though like their mobile app lacking some critical features and their use of Yodlee. Not associated, just wanted to share.

They just added it in preview within the last couple weeks.

One problem with using fat arrow syntax like this is the method is no longer attached to the prototype so it's not shared across all instances and is less memory efficient. It also doesn't work well with React HMR if you're using that. If you can use decorators I highly recommend autobind-decorator: https://github.com/andreypopp/autobind-decorator
Also I think you're using a TypeScript-specific `private` syntax there which likely changes the runtime semantics so my comment really only applies if you don't use that.

I'm eagerly awaiting mobx-state-tree. Basically the best of both worlds.

Really looking forward to TypeScript support [0] as that's blocking me from using this in most of my work-related projects. Congrats to the team on 1.0!

Totally agree. I have kids, and the book would certainly be inappropriate for them now. That said, the simple solution is to wait until they're old enough before exposing it to them instead of attempting to dilute the book.

I used to play minesweeper so much I would dream about it. I recently went looking for a replacement and found Hexcells Infinite which has really filled the gap. All puzzles are solvable and it even has nice music. Highly recommended.

> as there is zero statutory right to use even a millisecond of someone else's recording for any purpose whatsoever.
Just to be clear, by "any purpose whatsoever" you mean for a remix, right? In other words, fair use still applies to songs.

Exactly. I want my app server and my db server to be as close as possible. That's why services like Compose and ElephantSQL offer just that. So then it comes down to performance/price (value) between RDS and those.

Not that it necessarily should, but the article did not really address why they were moving away from RDS. Was it cost, performance, other issues?
I've been trying to compare RDS for Postgres to other offerings like Compose or Heroku but have come up surprisingly dry on comparisons.

According to this[0], IE10.

I can second GeoNames. Sometimes it's hard to beat free. We take a couple files from their dump[1] (primarily the city data) and import into a database. We can then geolocate a lat/long to the closest city.
