Amazing how precise we can get these number with what appears to be a very tight margin of error. The temperature estimating margin-of-error for sponges must be super tight! ;)

Another great memory was writing "broken" HTML comment tags so you could disable "auto-inserted" ads from Geocities and Angelfire (and other) sites so you could look cool with your…

So, so much time spent on DynamicDrive. It was the future. Thanks for the reminder!

Agreed. Glad to see the "opening up" of Aerospace/Military that SpaceX has enabled by simply being extremely competent. Anduril is also making great plays in the Military contracto…

Terrible for personal freedom and autonomy. We have to mandate that sellers of essential goods (grocery, fuel) must always accept cash. Obvious that this will be used against "anti…

Yeah, this should be read that the Federal Govt has to have access to national borders, full stop (agreed). It doesn't (and can't) address the fact that the reason the Federal Govt…
