It is a good thing that links to useful resources like these are reposted every now and then. For many, like myself, this could be the first time seeing it. Perhaps a date tag would add some clarity for those who have already see it.

Nice! This comment has the potential to become the next "If my grandmother had wheels, she would have been a bike."

I do both. In my case textbooks are to fill theoretical needs/gaps. I go through full books in some cases and in others it is not feasible based on various factors (difficulty of subject, need, content, 500+ pages etc.) I find that som

Most underrated comment! Also, this would be contrary to GP's comment - it would be the right reason. Imagine if a bald person is walking by and a toupee happens to fall on their head and they can see themselves in a window reflection

Looks like this article is from 2000. Perhaps the post title needs to be updated?

Loved it! I couldn't find any info on the case and keyboard though. Did he just reuse an old one? They did look to be in mint condition. No mention of those in the video either (or maybe I just missed it as I was skipping over some sec

Loved the restorations. Next time I am in your city I would like to come say hello. I have a cherished textbook from my undergraduate days that is coming apart. Perhaps I could bribe you with a suitable offering :-)

Perhaps, however I find decent value in some of these kinds of submissions - it is in the comments. The book recommendations and benefits of queueing theory mentioned here have already been worth it for me. I love going down technical rabbi

That is just plain awesome. I have to tell my neighbor who has been having issues with gripping etc.. I can't believe I hadn't noticed the screw threads on the top side of the lid all this time. Thank you!

Thank you. On the same subject can someone recommend a book or any other resource to learn about virtual machine internals? My goal is to try to build a toy clone of VirtualBox/VMWare. So far I have found one -- Virtual Machines by Jam

When I was learning to play the saxophone my instructor had an old copy of the Real Book. The transcriptions of songs by some of the jazz legends would blow my mind. I thought the people being able to transcribe those were geniuses (still

Can someone recommend me a good online course in automata theory (or even a book). I tried Ullman's course on edX (or Coursera, don't remember). But I found it a bit difficult to follow -- seemed a bit dry and monotonous, to me at

I feel similarly. I bought a hand-wound mechanical watch. And my electric blender - does only one thing i.e. blend. Then there is the stone knife sharpener. I am making a list of things along similar lines i.e. devices that do one or two t

I have been watching some BTC related companies recently and one caught my attention - Canaan. A few days ago they announced purchase orders of 100,000 mining machines for 2021. Supposedly many were pre-paid. Also of note was their claim th

Shibasaki is awesome. Always a joy to watch his videos. Along similar lines I would like to recommend Ishitani Furniture's Youtube channel. The videos are not tutorials like Shibasaki's but it is a joy to watch Natsuki Ishitani ma
