I’ll throw mine in the ring: http://jennerhanni.net I started out on Jekyll on Github Pages because I needed a place to put photos and I don’t use Facebook, Flickr, Google Plus, etc. It’s super simple, serving the photos on Smug

I'd like a source for that, since my understanding was the opposite.[1] Quoting from the abstract: "In a randomized double-blind study (n = 127), science faculty from research-intensive universities rated the application materials

Do you do anything in particular to make use of the time during the commute besides just concentrating on driving, listening to music, or daydreaming? I struggle with long commutes since I inevitably feel like I'm wasting the time.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll do that! I posted partly in hopes that somebody would reply and solve problems I didn't know I had. That's the joy of being totally new to this stuff. I don't know what I don't know.

I'm really interested in this! I've basically strung together some text files but occasionally lose a couple of hours tinkering to see if there's a better way. What backend are you going for? If it's Linux-compatible I&#

It's been a really fun break! I'm getting interested in super low frequency signals so I looked up the E202 Very Low Frequency (<10kHz) receiver[1] and laid out/built a variation of it.[2] Right now the whole thing is a br

We do! They're way behind Eagle and KiCad, but they're a fair and growing number. Our current challenge is to keep expanding our ability to automatically detect the default gerber naming scheme so it doesn't matter which CAD

I completely agree, and I also wish I would have switched sooner. The only thing I'd add is that anybody who's thinking of switching should treat it like picking up a new, very different programming language. It took me three week

I'm on support at OSH Park and we're still seeing a sizable majority of Eagle boards, but KiCad is definitely on the rise. I've got the impression that a lot of folks have been turned off by having to get the daily builds, so

Just ignore me if you were joking, but do I have a serious question about exactly this. I've considered doing something like this for myself. Not an app, but I thought I might wrap my credit card in a bit of cardboard that says "W

I took a look at your previous submissions and I think you've already heard the advice I'd give. If you haven't already, I think it might be useful to contact your doctor and at least rule out the possibility of depression. D

I've heard (but don't have first-hand experience so I can't verify) that selling it on commission via a local store might be worth looking into.

I completely agree with this interpretation. I'm gay and I don't find it something to be proud of -- same as how I don't find my brown hair or blue eyes things to be particularly 'proud' of. Unfortunately, saying &q
