I agree that bikes are a great way to dip your feet into maintenance. But everything is not swappable. There are a handful of "standards" for each part of the bike. It's not insane, but replacing a part often requires researc

It's abstraction, but for things you don't care about. I was an engineer early in my career and I felt exactly as you. All that stuff was in one ear and out the other and I couldn't for the life of me make sense of it. I move

(this was years ago but) I thought this too. I was relatively new to a new city and still building my friend group. I was worried that if I deleted facebook I wouldn't get invited to events, keep in touch with new people I met. I delet

I've done this 3 times in my 8 year career so far. I pretty much leave every job this way. I like to take a few months between jobs to do my own thing and take a break. If you are financially stable enough and are in a spot in your car

There are dozens of words for snow in American English. If you have ever skied you've probably at least encountered "powder". If you regularly backcountry ski you will have a huge vocabulary to describe snow, snow conditions,

I followed Copenhagen in the early years, it seemed like the product was always in "beta". I was waiting to get one once it went into production, but that never came. My guess is something like what you said. It seems like they ha

I love this. I'm in the ultrarunning community and I LOVE reading everyone's blog posts/trip reports/race reports/adventures. But everyone stopped updating them over the past 5 years or so. Now that sort of thing is

I think this is an apt comparison, but for me it comes down to the complication of the products. I used to be able to just plug in my headphones and they worked. Now it's a constant struggle of bluetooth syncing, connection issues, for

I have this problem too. I haven't solved it, but one thing that has helped is setting an alarm and not looking at the time while sleeping. If you wake up at anytime during the night, go back to sleep without looking at a clock. Don&#x

Just a bit of a side note, but I was in China last fall, and using Bing there were many search results that you could not click through. However the few sentence description below the search link often had information that would be censored

I had a professor that told us about when he found a bug in some of the flight code while he was interning at NASA. They decided it was too late to fix the bug, so they also put a sticky note on the control panel with instructions. Now I&#x

I have started going for lunch walks this winter. The effect has been dramatic. If you have low energy levels in the winter or experience SAD, definitely try lunch walks.

I live in a region where winter days are very short. I go to work and it's dark, I leave work and it's dark. I don't understand why we have decided to go sit in buildings during daylight hours. Even with a 40-hour week, I wou

There are a bunch of EEs in here complaining about the software they have to use. I took a few EE courses in school and the only thing I remember is having to use horrible software. Why hasn't someone made good software for EEs to use?
