Doesn't work for arbitrary zip codes for me.

I work in embedded and I absolutely review it. If nothing else, for learning.

hot water doesn't need to be heated.

Link at the bottom of your example page results in 404. For me, anyway.

I'm surprised that any useful accuracy can be obtained. Maybe an additional input to the solution would be to watch when various GPS satellites are occulted by the Earth.

>And the ones with built-in CRTs had issues wherein the cathode of the CRT was DANGEROUSLY CLOSE to the main PCB. If you weren't careful cracking that puppy open -- zappo! Fried mo…

>IMO, both Boeing and NASA are under quite a lot of pressure to not require further tests from Boeing because there are just enough Atlas Vs (the rocket that Starliner launches on)…

Delphi 7 was / is fantastic. Soon after that, they went .NET and the wheels came off.

Minor nit (for me, at least): An assembler is a tool. Assembly is a language. Though not assembly language, I think that www.ultibo.org is a cool embedded development environment f…

Age of Wonders is a great Delphi-produced game too, if I remember correctly.

This is awesome. Schneier has an excellent chapter on LFSRs for generating pseudorandom sequences with varying lengths.

You can always code in easter eggs.

Mathematics for the Million is a really good book.

Well yeah, but it goes even deeper than that, IMO, since the domes could have just stayed on Earth. Why launch them into space and return them later? They're terrariums with all of…

Ozric Tentacles for me. With the exception of two songs that I can think of in their 30-album catalog, there are no vocalizations. Just trippy psychedelic space rock. It may not wo…

I would recommend "But How Do It Know?" by J. Clark Scott.

"Perishes and Survives" labels change places when you adjust the sliders. This threw me off for a while until I realized that the data wasn't making sense.

like demon.

I came here to write basically this. I agree, and by the way, "wantrepreneur" is perfect.

Yes. I wrote my first code for hire at age 14, started professionally at age 22, and I'm 53 now. Still innovating and contributing as a technical guy. I've made it clear I'm not in…

I was wondering the same thing!

Agreed. WGU has been a good fit for me.

Incredible. Thanks for posting this.

I wonder who bailed first?

This is awful news. Too young.
