Damn, that's an excellent earner! Well done lol. I've never played Solitaire to completion and I just checked it out and spent 8 minutes of my life playing Solitaire and completing for the first time, lol. Really smooth experience :)

As I have a working knowledge of SQL this was very simple but my friends who use it sparsely in their financial jobs had a blast racing each other.
This type of gamification is awesome and as someone who loves coding but doesn't find Sudoku's or whatever very enjoyable, I would love a place I could do little coding challenges like this in break times!
Anyone know of any? I'm thinking "Escape Rooms" via coding could be a big thing!
Here's a super fun one where you SSH into different servers and have to use Bash/unix tools to find clues to get to the next one: https://overthewire.org/wargames/bandit/
My guess is when you don't make it a hard core coding thing but more of a general search quest it would be more succesful. Like in this case: you need to have a search function / filter options on those tables. Even transfering it to Excel (the horror) would increase the target population with huge factor.
This only applies during December, but https://adventofcode.com/ is a fun experience! Most puzzles range from 30 minutes to 3 hours from start to finish.
There's a guy who makes a playlist on Spotify called Programming with a coffee emoji, I listen to it so often I even found his Twitter or something and reached out to him to show appreciation. Turns out listening to Scandinavian Rock (melodic and lyrics I can't follow) is really good for productivity lol
Here's the thing - I am big on ergonomics, keyboard and trackpads are always a super high priority for me.
At my desk I have a Topre Realforce 88UB 45g keyboard that cost me like £200, a Razer Blackwidow for gaming, and a Microsoft Sculpt to switch it up.
I'm fairly big on keyboards, but I do love the new MBP keyboard.
I can't remember the old one enough now (I had the 2014 model previously), but I know I spoke of it as the best laptop keyboard - so I agree I probably rate it more than this one, BUT I am so used to typing on this now that I really don't think about the keyboard as a con in the slightest - you have to sit with it for a few weeks and you'll be flying - I break 120wpm on this because there is practically no travel.
What I DO hate, is that effing touchbar. Worst design decision on this laptop. I am 'over' it in that I can work fine with it and don't feel like it hinders me anymore, but everytime I look at it I get annoyed they are still sticking with it.
The only two cons of this MBP now it has a spec refresh -> touchbar sucks and not having ONE USB-A slot really pisses me off everytime I reach for the adapter...
Agree about the keyboard speed. I can fly on the new keyboard (2017). My only complaint is the noise which they seemed to have attempted to address in the 2018.
edit: clearly some people share your sentiment, but whilst introduction of iOS notifications were a relief, I can't understand why anyone would think they are better than Android.
It's a commonly shared sentiment at least that Android notifications are leagues ahead of iOS.
My biggest gripe is the lack of grouping, and I do miss the fact Android used to give me 'active' notifications such as a progress bar on the download of a Spotify album, for example.
Aside from grouping, iOS notifications are better for me.
It feels like you control the messages you get, how they're positioned, what priority they get etc; much more on iOS. I'm sure this is actually release dependent, I can only speak from the old CM and modern Samsung ROMs.. but iOS generally >feels< a lot nicer, like I'm in control; non-removal notifications, general frequency and lack of notification location control contribute to this.
Newer Android version do bring a lot of control, you can disallow applications to send specific types of notifications and set up how the notification will be made notifiable; vibration, tone, none at all, blink LED, etc.
My take is simple: if you need grouping that means you are getting way too many notifications. I leave only the most essential on (like the very important, or very rare).
No the world will not fall apart if you are not notified about something the second it happens.
>I can't understand why anyone would think they are better than Android.
I have used Android exclusively since some early Sony-Ericsson phones, and moved to iPhone just recently. I cannot put my finger exactly on why I prefer these notifications, but I think it has something to do with how easy it is to ignore them on iOS.
On Android, they're constantly on my face until I manually go through them. On iOS, they pop by once and exactly once and if I ignore them, they kinda vanish to the background immediately.
