    Something that might be helpful to think about is whether you want to work-to-live or live-to-work. I feel that being connected to everything at work all the time leads to the latter more than the former. You're not less for needing a break.

    What is everyone else's ideal "money-is-no-object" getaway/holiday/Out-of-Office time away from their work?

    If I were to have some real "Out of Office" time, I'd really like to go on a nice long holiday - a road trip across America in an old muscle car. I'd still take my laptop etc with me but just for my own programming stuff, not because I would have to.

    Obviously this isn't a good thing - this is how you burn out. This is why I burnt out once during that job. So my tip: Don't leave it till hindsight for realising if you need a break.

    For the 7 years I worked with others, I don't think I actually was ever really "Out of Office". I still got notifications on days off, I still responded to people and never took a break for more than a few days. I've only realised that now while thinking back...

    99 smartphones are transported in a handcart to generate virtual traffic jam in Google Maps. Through this activity, it is possible to turn a green street red which has an impact in the physical world by navigating cars on another route!

    I'm probably leaving a hell of a lot of performance improvements on the table when it comes to intrinsics. It is going to be hard though as each inner-loop iteration still depends on the previous - I don't know how to best scale that with intrinsics.

    Finally got around to tuning my intrinsic version of my Levenshtein Distance calculator which finally out performs my non-intrinsic version. That makes my intrinsic version the fastest "correct" implementation I've built as my parallel one has various race condition problems.

    My vectorized sorting extravaganza is out and about. A LOT of work went into this (referring to the javascript in the posts :) Read, retweet, send scathing reviews, open issues, heat your house with it: This goes to Eleven! Pt. 1-3, code, nuget out:

    In all seriousness, while there is probably an easier solution and maybe that means changing which products/services I'm going to use, it feels like I need to spend far more time on this than my own SaaS product. Ahhhh well, I guess I will just keep on investigating solutions.

    Before you go "James, just use FooBar, it will solve all your problems", while it might, I might be just trading one problem for another - it just seems ridiculous to me that I even need to go through these hoops. Can't Stripe just buy Octobat then write a nice Xero integration?

    The documentation talks about being able to do it. However their API reference has no reference to it that I can tell at all. So using Benie I can't have my customers update their payment information on an active subscription let alone changing plan.

    Let's say I do that - is that all my issues? Nope. Going back to working out the tax, the best solution from Octobat is a relatively new service called Benie - basically their own custom checkout. Looks pretty good for setting up payments but bad for editing them.

    What does that mean? Basically Stripe puts multiple payments together as one into my account which creates a reconciliation problem. Now I need to pull my invoices from Stripe/Octobat, find out which would be part of the payment and force Xero to reconcile a particular way.

    So let's say I write a custom integration between Stripe, Octobat and Xero for syncing invoices. Stripe will do the payment organised by Octobat (due to tax stuff) and Xero will duplicate it for accounting. Accounting also requires finance reconciliation - Stripe groups payouts.

    Xero is a pretty nice accounting platform and even has a Stripe integration - except that integration isn't for syncing invoices, it is for paying invoices from Xero. Even if that wasn't the case, remember I'm not sure if my "source of truth" for invoices is Stripe or Octobat.

    The two location thing is only a problem in terms of "source of truth" - Stripe knows Subscriptions and how to handle all that but Octobat would know Customers. Let's pretend that isn't confusing at all. Now for accounting I use Xero - a relatively popular system here in Oz.
