He has a new show,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.discovery.com\/tv-shows\/savage-builds\/full-episodes\/building-iron-man?utm_campaign=Recomendo&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=Revue%20newsletter\" target=\"_blank\">Savage Builds<\/a>, running on Discovery Channel. In the first episode he made a \u201creal\u201d bullet-proof, flying Ironman suit, which is inspiring. For the next 7 days only, that episode is streaming for free on the internet. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n<p><strong>Chrome extension for using multiple Gmail accounts<\/strong><br \/>\nI have multiple Gmail accounts that I use throughout the day and I developed a bad habit of keeping them open and constantly clicking through tabs to check the status of my inbox even though I know nothing\u2019s changed.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore\/detail\/checker-plus-for-gmail\/oeopbcgkkoapgobdbedcemjljbihmemj\/related?hl=en&amp;utm_campaign=Recomendo&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=Revue%20newsletter\" target=\"_blank\">Checker Plus<\/a>\u00a0is a chrome extension that lets you\u00a0preview, delete, star and archive email without opening up Gmail or leaving your current window, and it works with multiple accounts. Since I\u2019ve been using it, I have definitely been more productive. \u2014 CD<\/p>\n<p><strong>All the flights possible<\/strong><br \/>\nI am often frustrated when trying to fly from one obscure place to another obscure place with as few stops in between. Most flight sites want you to keep the journey on the same airline. What I want is \u201cshow me ALL the flights from this airport,\u201d and I\u2019ll figure out a route on my own. No surprise, there\u2019s a site for that, called appropriately enough\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flightsfrom.com\/?utm_campaign=Recomendo&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=Revue%20newsletter\" target=\"_blank\">FlightsFrom.com<\/a>. I can assemble a route, sometimes with obscure airlines, that won\u2019t show up elsewhere. \u2014 KK<\/p>\n<p><strong>Best small flashlight<\/strong><br \/>\nMy friend Rob gave me the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2IZTmGE?utm_campaign=Recomendo&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=Revue%20newsletter\" target=\"_blank\">ThruNite Archer LED Flashlight<\/a>\u00a0($30) and it is the best small flashlight I\u2019ve ever owned. It throws a bright beam, and because it\u2019s made from aluminum, it feels solid. Importantly, it uses AA batteries instead of less-common batteries often required in bright flashlights. I bought one for my father for Father\u2019s Day because I knew he\u2019d appreciate it. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hands-on introduction to machine learning<\/strong><br \/>\nMy 16-year-old daughter and I are interested in learning about artificial intelligence, and we found a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?list=PLOU2XLYxmsIIuiBfYad6rFYQU_jL2ryal&amp;utm_campaign=Recomendo&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=Revue%20newsletter&amp;v=cKxRvEZd3Mw\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube series<\/a>\u00a0produced by Google that has easy-to-understand examples that you can program yourself using the Python programming language. The first program we wrote was only 6 lines long, but it can tell the difference between an apple and an orange. \u2014 MF<\/p>\n<p><strong>See what\u2019s in people\u2019s bags<\/strong><br \/>\nWe have a new weekly newsletter called\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.getrevue.co\/profile\/wimb?utm_campaign=Recomendo&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_source=Revue%20newsletter\" target=\"_blank\">What\u2019s in my bag?<\/a>\u00a0Each week, one interesting person shares four favorite things they carry in their bag.
