How to avoid the dreaded "Last seen days ago" status on Skype
When you see the status "Last seen days ago" for a Skype contact then you know there's trouble if you spoke to that contact recently. Your messages to that contact will be delayed by 20-30 minutes while he can send you messages instantly, making chats awkward.
This problem annoyed me too in recent months, but I stumbled on a solution: if you send your computer to sleep then always exit Skype first. If the computer goes to sleep while Skype is running then next time you awake it the "Last seen days ago" bug usually occurs.
So the solution is simply this: always log out of Skype before you sleep your computer.

Importing lots of data (SQL, etc.) into App Engine Datastore
Create a task queue with Cloud Tasks and a task handler in you app engine app which inserts the items in the database, then run a script on your local machine which reads the database and adds items into the task queue for insertion.
The queue can be configured, so your app engine app can handle the rate of tasks given to it.

I found that in the same command prompt where this worked before, suddenly I get this error.
If I close the command prompt and start a new one then it works again.

CPanel Domains vs. Add On Domains difference
They are just different views. Domains show all kind of domains (alias, sub, add on) in one place while the Add On domains panel only shows add ons.

Adding Putty SSH key to Github
If you get an error then try this:
source: https://stackoverflow.com/a/17051410
Here are some steps that are not at all clear when
copy/pasting your public key. (For the record, I used Putty Key
Generator for my keys.)
- On the first line, enter ssh-rsa.
- Make sure you add one space after ssh-rsa
- When you copy/paste the key into the Key textbox it should preserve the \n characters (x0A). If you are using Notepad on Windows, you won't see these new lines until you copy the text to Github.
