My best guess is that in a very dialog-heavy film, it helps to have the characters holding something.

AFAIK, people are paid to charge them in their homes.

If anyone uses Calibre, here is a Calibre HN recipe I have made. It looks pretty good on Kindle Paperwhite, but I have not tested it anywhere else: https://github.com/brendoncrawfo…

Thanks for explaining this in simple terms. I have been curious about this for a while.

This is also my same setup. It is refreshingly easy to maintain.

When the incentive to finish a goal shifts from the innate satisfaction of completion to a fear of financial penalty, is it possible that the goal itself will unintentionally chang…

ThinkPad T450s running XUbuntu 16.04 LTS. Everything just worked with a default Xubuntu install.

This seems to assume that a developer necessarily hits an MVP in PHP faster than in other languages. This might be true when comparing with the tooling/dependency nightmares of JS/…

I have been working at a standup desk for about the last 10 years. To combat fatigue, I add a walk around the room every 20 minutes. This system has mostly eliminated all aches and…

One good example I can think of is if there is a no-right-turn-on-red combined with an unusually long red light. These are common in intersections with 4 green-left-turn arrows. A …

Http://geekhack.org/ is a pretty good source. The ErgoDox originated there.

Great work here. Is this primarily focused on physical meetings, or is it in any way also optimized for remote/teleconference meetings?

Redshift is great for some use cases, and completely unsuitable for others. If testing the waters with Postgres is your objective, Redshift will not be a good representation.

Yeah, arm and shoulder fatigue is definitely an issue at first. After about 2 - 3 months the muscles develop, so it is no longer an issue.

Understandable. Thanks for explaining. I will be looking forward to watching this project progress. If you ever make a vertical keyboard, I might buy a lifetime supply :)

Good points. This is a very cool project, and it will be fun to watch it progress.

"Ergonomic" has become a great buzzword. These keyboards are not ergonomic. While they protect against ulnar deviation, they do not protect against pronation and dorsiflexion. Note…
