Side note: landing on this particular website was a hilariously bad experience. The scrollable content area on my (modern and average sized) mobile device represented less than one…

CLRS = Cormen, Leiserson, Rivest, Stein - The authors of the famous book Introduction to Algorithms.

One of the challenges of (even modern) scuba diving is that failure conditions are at odds with normal reflexes. For example, if you run out of air your first reflex as a non-diver…

I agree that we’re practically in a recession and that our present recession was brought about from congress via the fed. However, that particular chain of events was set in motion…

I’ve had some luck with Remarkable. Remarkable has a reasonably good experience for getting a PDF to the device, working with it, and then getting it back to the source as a seemin…

I’d imagine it might be technically possible but not practical. The weight required for ballistic parachute systems is substantial. On small aircraft (such as Cirrus and Icon) it r…

I’ll bite, here are a few relevant observations. I like honey bunches of oats cereal. It’s delicious. The variety I like is also ~200 calories _per cup_. That’s before adding milk …
