Many of my friends have shared their reading lists of all the books they read in 2014 (thank you!) -- this gave me some excellent ideas of books to read for 2015.

So I have decided to share my reading list as well, and the list of books I plan to read in 2015. If you have any ideas for additional books, I'd love them (especially in the topic areas of business, finance, nonfiction).

Favorite books I read in 2014:

• The Hard Thing About Hard Things: Building a Business When There Are No Easy Answers by Ben Horowitz
• The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon by Brad Stone
• The Effective Executive: The Definitive Guide to Getting the Right Things Done by Peter F Drucker
• Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future by Peter Thiel

# very simple script to generate a tar of dependencies in ivy cache for extraction in TravisCI.
# usage:  ./.create-travis-cache.sh <sbt-command>*
#
# By Default this will run `sbt update` with a clean cache directory and
# generate a .tar.bz2 with all the artifacts.   This file can be pushed into
# dropbox and expanded in your TravisCI server later for a slight improvement
# in resolution times.

roidrage: Is there a CSS trick that allows me to phase out text that overflows a box? Like a shadow over the last couple of chars. [http://twitter.com/roidrage/status/464692600910651392]

let's say you have this html snippet :

<div>
A text that is too long to fit it's container
</div>
