small sample size, but yes! I've tried it on my son, and had some friends also try it out with kids of various ages. Being able to to turn whatever idea is in their head right that instant into a story seems to be the real hit.

Some feedback I've received from other parents is they wish there was more than one image to help keep the listener a little more engaged. Been tinkering with this but it is challenging to get a consistent series of images.

Hey - I'm the author of tuql (if you can still call it authorship, I haven't updated this library in a long time :) )

I originally wrote this to speed up prototyping / development projects, I'd never recommend shipping this anywhere near production.

My recent workflow has been this:

1. Put the project in a private GitHub repo. Paying for it adds incentive to work on it.

2. Break up the work into small tasks and add them as issues in the GitHub project. Aggressively separate them into milestones to stay focused (Milestone 1 == MVP, less important stuff in Milestone 2, etc).

The reason I think this works is that it is easy to get overwhelmed by all the work on a side project, and you have limited time to work on it. Now when you have time, you grab a ticket, complete it. Each ticket should be doable in a few hours or the scope of your ticket is too broad.

Tip; if you have a home server check out GitLab-CE.

I run it in a docker on my Unraid (file)server, all easily managed via webinterface.

Often? Except for a few stations in Midtown, I rarely see any cell service once inside the turnstiles.

The more intensive processes are a fine line to walk. It's easy to go overboard. I recently went through an interview process that was more on the intensive side and left feeling better about it because I knew the people I would potentially be working with had gone through that same process. It's harder, yes, but I felt the chances were higher that I would be working with more competent people on the other side.

Awesome, thanks. That should really be mentioned in the Quick Start and/or Tutorial in the docs. I think a lot of people would really appreciate that feature. :)

Looks like it got added to the Debugging page in the docs yesterday: http://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/debugging.html#c...

Wonder if cyclists there optimize their route for right turns (a la UPS) since it is so convenient in this setup.

Most definitely. I’ve been cycling in the Netherlands for three months now and I've found myself instinctively opting for a quasi-circular route when going to and from a destination to ensure maximum flow via right-hand turns.

Important to note that while Canada is geographically large, it's population is far from dispersed. Half the population lives in a ~700mi corridor:

If there ever was a time to wait for version 1.1 of something, this would be it.

Couldn't agree more. I'd hate to be the guy stuck with the buggy beta.

Well, presumably the alternative is to die...
