I agree. Their support is always really great. Was the battery causing the time to drift or something, so that the SSL stuff saw the wrong time & broke? Just wondering how a battery could mess that up!


I don't remember now to be honest. I should have written it down :D It was an early interaction with them, and I didn't seriously think he would be right.


The Litmus templates are really well made and look great in all email clients I've tried them in. https://litmus.com/resources/free-responsive-email-templates


The single comment on that post is great: "It’s amazing what people can do when they’re not being tortured to death!" —Evan Engel. +1 Evan.


There are other comments, such as (in order of most recommended):

> Eagerly anticipating your gamification of waterboarding.

and quoting Rumsfeld's' opening "I’ve done business, politics, and war."

> Yes, we get it. You’ve killed people.

and the rest in the same style.

Maybe Rumsfeld's PR peeps didn't think this Medium appearance through.


It amazes me that a professional PR company (obviously this was not written by Rumsfeld himself) approved the idea of posting on Medium where there is no full control of comments.


Pretty neat! I've heard those beeps a lot but never knew what they were for. Also, is it me, or do the sounds in the example recording sound the same? (frequency-wise?)


Thanks! Listening to the recording, I'm reasonably sure I can distinguish the two different frequencies, but there's no denying they sound very similar. They're so close there's less than a semitone between them.


I thought it was "red" for red band trailers.


I thought they'd bought Redtube.


My IP address seemed extra sad. :( Maybe if it had a little more stability—wasn't so dynamic...


Just a quick note... the icon in use for "Segment Your Queries" is the Bitbucket logo. https://bitbucket.org/ Might want to change that? Maybe the cubes icon would work well for that item: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icon/cubes/


D'oh. Good note. Thanks.


I personally can't use Moleskines. Not because of the paper or binding lacks quality, but because they _are_ so nice—I can't bring myself to "mess up" an expensive notebook with my notes. I much prefer to use regular copy paper. That way, I can freely get ideas out without worrying about messing up a relatively expensive notebook.

Once as an experiment, I bought a Moleskine, unwrapped it and promptly scribbled like mad on the first page in an attempt to get past that. Didn't work—I still felt really bad about it.


I used to get the little pocket ones that were $10 for 3 and had no trouble writing in them.

Field Notes have the same price point, but I like their paper better. (The top of a page in particular has space I can put a title that'll stand out.)


Moleskines look like nice notebooks, but the paper actually does lack quality. It feathers and bleeds with most nice pens and pretty much all fountain pens.


Mashing down keys as fast as I could to stop the spin... had to leave before getting too dizzy. :)


Hm, yeah. It's controlled using the mouse. Center the mouse to prevent the view from moving.

WASD moves the player character.

Pressing 1 enables debug mode, which shows some bounding boxes.


Got it. Thanks for the hint.


I've also really enjoyed PGCommander. Updates often and works well with remote connections via SSH.


Remote connections via SSH is the killer feature for PGCommander.

Still nice to see another good looking app in this field.
