The perfect alarm clock would start lighting your life dreams on fire if you didn't wake up, cause that's whats happening anyway.

What if we regulate batteries even more? i.e. what if, in some magical perfect world, the world get's together and agrees on batteries for phones like how we agree on AA,AAA,D,C ba…

As is the Ocean.

Booked a time!

My mother is living alone in her house and we are getting to the point where she might not be able to live alone. I built "Still Kicking", a picture frame that monitors her motion …

What a trip. They must all be so excited! I hope they will come back as ambassadors of peace.

I always talked with the people I managed about their career goals, and always tried to adapt their job to be a closer fit to those goals. When I couldn't do that I would acknowled…

This is likely a bit unrealistic, but why can't we make a half rack server to go in someones basement that can also heat up their hot water and use the basement floor as a heat sin…

51 year old electrical engineer here, same thing! (minus the retiring part cause finances) It's given me the guts to be a solo-founder (for now). I

Building a faster and more accurate replacement for the BOD5 (Biochemical Oxygen Demand) 5 day test used in wastewater.

Great. But make climate control 3 knobs: Fan speed + off, temperature and output ports. Put the AC button inside the temperature knob, and the 'recirculate' button inside the outpu…

I loved this game. I want to make it into a mud.

A good start, but let's see more.

Used QNX for an audioserver.. got MP3 encoding and playback ported to it. Visited the headquarters and Dan Dodge instructed his team to help us in any way we needed it. We needed t…

It's time for tech to go back to its roots and starve the kings and 'noblemen' of our talent. Stop working for billionaires.

I work in Oceanography.. The solar panels on individual buoys also get cleaned by rain, and can work ok vertically because of reflections. We have special diode bypass panels made …

I agree - also an EE - and I think it is similar to 'programming music' packages like Sonic Pi. If you are used to reading and writing standard music coding will be an odd and diff…

search youtube for motivational videos. Play one when you are down. Skip if you don't like it - there are an infinite number of them.

I did a startup making a mp3 player that was attached to whole house audio distribution systems. We got an angry email from a customer saying he woke up to ABBA playing full blast …

We just started putting our kids on the potty around 5 months old.. they liked to sit on it and we would read to them. Sometimes stuff came out. But more importantly it was part of…

We use MS365 at work. Outlook for the web is ok until you try to use the 'groups' feature. I need to hold a 10 minute tutorial on the backwards UI for the group view within outlook…

I made my DOS apps using National Instruments DOS GUI.. it was oddly wonderful, and super easy to make full fledged applications with 'c' calls. It's a shame they now just make blo…
