I came in hoping for inspiration, got punched in the face by reality instead. It's a good read, just know what you are in for.

I was going to leave a remark about "wow, Class 10000 cleanroom?!" Then I decided to look it up. Turns out, the larger that number is, the LESS clean it is! https://www.mecart-cleanrooms.com/learning-center/cl

I wish there was study based on whether multi-vitamins help for those of us who are professional sitters (eg, in tech, so we sit on our ass all day), and who most of the time do NOT eat healthy diets, and do not get enough exercise. In thos

I remember spending all the money in the world I had on a USR Courier HST, and that world changing moment the HST connected... ahh, good memories.

It's one thing to "support" it, it's another to make components actually available to make repairs. I remember some people testing out a direct screen swap between two identical iphones, only to find out they didn't

So when every country in the world started printing money like it's going out of style in the prime of COVID years, to help stimulate the economy, they effectively wrote the first few chapters of this story?

We use to jokingly say that whatever the estimate is, the actual time it takes is twice as long, and increase the unit. So if the estimate is 2 weeks, it's gonna take 4 months. Surprisingly, the latter is a more accurate estimate most

PSA: if you want to see how the site loads directly from the machine (eg, bypass cloudflare), just give it any random query string param. Such as: http://serentty.com/?t=13432 or http://serentty.com/?t=35656

So are soldiers from both sides, either on foot or in vehicles in full radiation suits??? If not, aren't they at severe risk of radiation poisoning (in addition to rapid on set lead poisoning)? Not to mention if they continue past cher

I've asked this question a number of times in interviews. Sadly, not one person has ever talked about debouncing. I think I would've instantly hired the person, if they talked about debouncing :P To clarify, I would ask this quest

I think it isn't so much about what traffic to a static site will do to a server, but rather what the experience is for the end user. The tie in to CDNs help reduce load time for your end user.

I've been with HelloFresh for a year and a half. Before joining, I could only make the most basic meals, spaghetti, grilled cheese. Now, I feel like the training with HelloFresh and I'm a much better cook. The variety of meals has

Sure it's fun and stuff, but it is literally stuff like this that makes higher ups think "Why are you taking so long for a form? I can have an AI do it for me!" And then you have to spend time explaining that you have to cons

I wonder if the target audience of this printer even care about material properties like strength. I mean, what functional parts do you know of, in your car, bike, washing machine, are in full colour? I feel like the people who want full co

While I am sure the HP solution will run circles around this, in both quality and in price, but XYZ Printing has introduced a (low cost) inkjet+FDM 3D printer. Basically it prints a layer with the FDM printer, then prints a layer of color

Tabs Backup and Restore for Chrome is very useful, if you are like me, and collect more and more tabs to "Read later". It will do periodic snapshots of all tabs, and you can restore any point in time.

Clever indeed. I do wonder how hard it is to get the 2d images out of the ultrasound though. I don't suppose it's just like a mjpeg stream like a webcam.

I don't think it is the ideas we lack, it is the focus on money. Ideas that won't make tonnes of money don't make it into reality. It's not, "hey, is that idea going to help people/planet/____"? It&#
