This is great, congrats on shipping it!

I like the interface but for the life of me I think I should be able to go back a period (“last week”). I think a week starts on Monday?


The week starts on monday yes. Thanks for also giving the hint that you want last week. for now maybe the "last 7 days" option would be useful for you


The majority of DNC delegates are normal people and local elected officials, elected by local districts and state delegations.


Now explain Super Delegates.


This organization tries to rank online media political sources by their bias.

It’s not totally objective, but at least relatively can help you.


Plenty. Most recent was a volleyball rotation generator so I could hand out customized rotation sheets to every player. When I make a change, I can generate all new sheets by updating names & positions.


We've used a RPi 3B+ for a couple years as a home desktop and it's been great for general browsing, email, youtube.

Velcro it to the back of a HD TV and it can sit anywhere.


How do you make YouTube work?


From Olathe. Grew up here. Ate at that restaurant last week, even.

I don't find our level of racism any different than when I travel elsewhere in the US. There are bigoted people everywhere, but most people around here just want to raise a family and hang out with their neighbors, whatever color they are.


If you're in Kansas City, my company name is databasically and my first name is wes and I use a dot com. Shoot, if you're not in KC; email me and let me know how I can help.


My method of killing DST would be to accept it year round. I would much rather have the extra time at the end of the day, after work.

I'm not sure if we can just unilaterally say "All our timezones are +1 now, forever" though.


It's a red herring. People will naturally adjust their sleeping, working and leisure time by 1 hour so the extra hour of sun will have disappeared completely. In fact it may have already happened, consider what time your grandparents used to start work with what time you start work.


No more or less than we can say "We're staying on standard time year-round". We've adjusted when DST starts relatively recently (twice, I think), and it seems several countries have semi-permanently shifted to DST: http://www.timeanddate.com/news/time/

Computers pick up on published timezone databases automatically (there was a big mess a couple years back when someone tried to copyright it or something, and they ended up backing down), so any software that can handle any form of DST should have no problem with a permanent shift - and probably by any amount.


Ya, not counting any legacy systems, or poorly tested feature...


Both of those "why become a sponsor" articles are a great read; right in line with this article.

The sponsor list down the side of the page is totally awesome, too. Congrats on some serious sponsor firepower.


Serious question: what would it take for a US citizen to move to Brazil and work there? I don't have any idea about the visa intricacies.


Surprisingly restrictive, as (last I recall) Brazil has a tit-for-tat policy against the US: restrictions the US puts on Brazilians coming to the US Brazil likewise imposes on Americans going to Brazil. You can, however, buy citizenship for $100,000 (At least I recall researching this. I can't find a reference for at the moment).


    1. A $50k investment
    2. A job or research position
    3. Marry a brazilian :)
    4. Be over 60 and with +$2000/month income
And there are no immigration quotas.

A foreign developer will probably find a job very easily, but be prepared to live on 50% less.


I'm offering to switch places with you. There are no Apple stores nor Amazon here. We have sugar Coke though...


We do have Apple franchises, and Amazon is coming this year (reportedly) :)

But we don't have Cherry Coke :(
