Anchovies are actually the only topping I don't include intentionally!

I see what you mean, but no actually. I really just Googled "what color makes people hungry" and picked a red I liked!

Sure! On the front end it's HTML, CSS, and jQuery - no hip JS frameworks nor complex build pipelines. Backend is node and express. The dominos API is https://github.com/RIAEvangelist/node-dominos-pizza-api, as mentioned below. Everything is hosted in AWS on Elastic Beanstalk on a few t2.micro instances.

By “0” I mean “cheese only”. I could have been more clear, thanks for the feedback.

The estimates are real and from Dominos. Thanks for the feedback, that's a good catch. I'll be adding that verbiage.

That's not what I would call simple. America has a long history of subsidizing farmers, which in turn keeps food prices down.

Yep, Jack3d was pretty famous for that. The banned ingredient was DMAA, by the way.

It's not a watch aficionado company. It is, as I understand it, a company that just rapidly builds out app ideas. An app incubator, you could say.

Firefox seems to have a privacy policy that, by default, does things that aren't "free" - locale checking, talking back to Mozilla, etc.
Is there another "free" browser that supports webm?

Sadly, because tweetstorms are getting more and more popular. I think it gives people a superiority feeling ("aha, look at how much brilliance I can convey in so few characters!"), whereas the reader is just frustrated.

I doubt they would do this as it would reduce their already razor thin margins. And there is little incentive for them. I don't think many people would be willing to shop like that either, since the mindset of a purchase like that is sort of the anti-Prime - "just let it arrive whenever", as opposed guaranteed 2 day air. Long story short I just don't see that as a very Amazon-like move. That said, I would probably use it once or twice a year if such a feature existed.

Not sure if this fits the bill, but I've always found the openness of Thoughtbot quite impressive. They have an open "playbook" describing how they operate and develop. http://playbook.thoughtbot.com/
Looks like a managed enterprisey version of Google Inbox/Mailbox app/Evomail. Probably does some natural language processing and keeps track of appointments, due dates, action items, etc.

The quality of writing in this paper is quite terrible. I'm not sure what kind of review this went though, but I'm kind of shocked it got approved with data points named "After Prism Revelations". Revelations is an emotional word for that data descriptor.

Source? Isn't that only true due to the fact that most people do not change thermostats in homes/apartments/condos they move into, or when they change HVAC systems?

It's not random. It's using a model to create what it believes the most likely bracket outcomes are. Those unique brackets are then distributed, obviously in order of most likely to least likely.

He gave a talk yesterday at Waza, Heroku's conference. I believe Heroku is planning on uploading videos of the talks in the coming days.
I've been interested in this talk since I saw it announced on Twitter, but prefer to watch/listen rather than go through these slides.
