    E-mail services

    I like Mandrill.  When I first signed up (free account) my mail went to backlog.  Opened a ticket and it was fixed in 30 minutes - fraud checks, new account, etc. Since then, has worked fine.  Not huge volume - maybe 50 emails a day tops, often less.

    Is there such a thing as asking for too much money during an interview?

    Ideally, you don't discuss salary until you've passed the interview.  That way they're psychologically committed to you.   Honestly, interviewing and looking for people is a pain - sifting through the haystack to find the needle.  So once they've done the work and decided yeah, KuJoe's our man...

    I think we've all long suspected that KuJoe worked for the NSA...

    I think we've all long suspected that KuJoe is a Korean professional basketball player... From that article: "Their current manager is Lee Man-Soo." I believe that is the Korean name for @MannDude

    Robin Williams has Died

    Never was a fan myself, but he seemed like an all-around good guy.  A real shame. The one movie I did like him in was this gem and personal favorite: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I426JibpYUQ

    A Linux powered AR15 rifle

    You are so wrong I laughed out loud.  You really should look up Eric S. Raymond some time. Most Linux hackers I've known are fairly bright people and wouldn't have such a narrow point of view.  If you think guns are somehow immoral, bad, or evil or any association with them is "something I...

    Windows 9?

    Well turns out I'm getting a Windows 8 box after all.  My primary home laptop's hard drive died and the battery is already flakey, so I ordered one of these: http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msusa/en_US/pdp/Acer-Aspire-E-15-ES1-511-C590-Laptop/productID.304985400?icid=Chromebook_ModC_072114...

    Russian gang said to have collected over a BILLION stolen passwords.

    I assumed that "1.2 billion passwords amassed" means "we concatenated a bunch of previous leak files together".

    Windows 9?

    I don't remember '95 sucking ass. After years of Win 3.1, Win 95 was pretty nice.

    Windows 9?

    My perception of Win 8 is...hell no. Win 8 seems to really want to be "one big screen for your app".  Who the hell works that way?  I have 8 windows open as I type this - VM VPN'd in to work, web browser, a couple file folders, ssh, itunes, etc.  I know you can still run traditional apps but...

    The Truth about Tdale and everything that happened since 2012.

    The Truth about Tdale and everything that happened since 2012.

    I thought about deploying a popcorn gif, but if this is CC, then this seems more appropriate.

    Email hosting?

    Why not?  The shared hosting provider typically offers several features, one of which is mail.  Typically you can access with either IMAP or POP3.  If you don't want the shared web hosting, don't use it.   Usually you can create as many email accounts as you like, though some dorky hosts limit...
