Another good resource is The Memory Book[0]. It covers a few different systems that cover different scenarios, such as lists, like in the article, names and numbers. It uses techni…

I’ve always found this one closer to reality. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1zYF0cejmg

A cat is like a mirror. You get what you put in to a cat, most of the times. Treat it with love and respect, it will return it. Treat it like an annoyance, it will treat you the sa…

Ember.js seems to check off a lot of those boxes, if you are willing to use a complete solution and not do the 'pick and choose' method of react and friends. While it has lost popu…

An IPv6 packet walks into a bar, no one responds

This was during the first Trump is crazy, must remove him using the 25th phase. It wasn't just commentary, as this seemed to necessitate multiple days of coverage. I would say it f…

Do you watch CNN? For about 2 years they had cnn playing on a tv near the break room, so as I refilled my water bottle, I got to see what cnn thought was the most important (Trump)…

Every year I need to convince my wife that we need more Christmas triangles. We do through in the occasional square, but with enough triangles we can render anything!

What do you mean? I just hear people say he is authoritarian without giving any examples. I just like to see examples of what they are thinking.

Just curious, can you Please give some examples of his authoritarian tendencies?

Pretty open-ended question! I bought an Osprey Flapjack Pack [0] in a rare impulse buy while I was at an event that happened to be selling them. I didn't know anything about them, …

They may see it as a warning to North Korea

Our 2013 Honda Accord needed several updates just for the radio to work reliably. You would go to change a channel, the screen would blank out and come back on with all presets set…

Also, buy a coffee roaster and roast your own beans. There are lots of ways to get started on the cheap (popcorn air roaster), and unroasted coffee is around $5-$6 a pound. It's a …

Agree. The few SPA sites I use annoy the heck out of me. garmin connect is one that I use, and when I view an activity and want to go back, I need to wait .5 or 1 second as the pag…

Another 'haha'er here. I can't stand LOL, though this TED [1] talk gives an interesting look at its use. [1] http://www.ted.com/talks/john_mcwhorter_txtng_is_killing_lan...

Good points. If you notice a bunch of little pee clumps, or you cat is trying to use the box way more than normal, probably want to have a vet take a look. Also, if they suddenly s…

I stare at leaves because sometimes, they really do change after 30 seconds. If you have a wind blowing, it can be "snowing" leaves, which does bring me some level of enjoyment to …

I made two apps, and sadly, not many people have heard of them, since I was working for a small company at the time and we really didn't have the clout to deal with carriers or a s…

Oh yeah, it was fun building our own UI that we had complete control over, so that part wasn't so bad. It was just at times, it seemed like they (carriers) didn't want you using th…

I worked on some J2ME applications around 2004. While we built usable apps, it seems if you want any kind of user interface that doesn't look like crap, you need to implement it yo…

Interesting article. These superfund sites are pretty scary, especially how they can be 100 years old or so. In the meantime, new stuff has been built over it, which hampers the cl…

Passive does not equal no work. I think the passive comes in after you put in that initial work, creating ebook, adsense sites, etc. and then only needing to devote a minimum of ti…

"Back in the old days" we had huge cubes with plenty of desk space and cabinets. One time, way before all this "collab-friendly" stuff hit, some guys put masking tape on the floor …

"f4" creates a hole on "e4" in your pawn structure. This hole becomes a valuable outpost where your opponent can position a knight (or other piece) without it being harassed by one…
