Make sure you adjust your faucets so they won’t go full hot. Don’t want to scald someone.

I bring my own because scent is an irritant.

Have a 4a. Have never heard of this.

We use our (really mine, but hey...) Mini 5 for reading PDFs, reading ebooks (when I can't find my kindle), a quick terminal session to my server to check stuff, menus at restauran…

What else are they going to spend $2.5T on?

This looks really good, but my mini 5 is still plenty powerful for what I use it for. I do like the TouchID placement and wish they would bring that to iPhones.

>>150 grand is not a huge family income to support 2 adults and 3 kids An awful lot of families are doing this on 1/3 of that amount.

There’s an entire political party built around that belief.

It started with the 24 hour news introduced with cable. In order to fill 24 hours, they started adding more fluff and opinion. Then slowly opinion started getting treated like fact…

Two knots: bowline and trucker’s hitch. You’ll need them one day.

I keep a couple lengths of rope (550) next to my desk. When I’m pondering a challenging problem and I can’t take a walk, I practice knots. I find it to be a very good way to get my…
