    Thank you for this -- I needed a laugh today. I do have to say that we visited Zion in Nov and it was amazing -- beautiful weather and no crowds. I think it's all about timing.

    Somewhat similar situation here, but I use a .diff file: ! heading here + item to do here - item completed here the !+- prefixes auto-highlight/colorize in editors. I use Sublime T…

    Looks great! Cool idea and a very clean interface. One note on the website: the "Calendar / Todo / Project" nav buttons throw 404 errors when clicked.

    This looks really great. I love the presentation style. Clean and simple. Nice work!

    Very cool! One note: the random sample marked: 'Using a string "true" instead of a boolean true' leaves "true" as a string after parsing, instead of converting to an actual boolean…

    Thanks for clarifying. I understand this is a bit different, but if folks are using vim, the best resource (in my opinion) for novices is vimtutor. Just type "vimtutor" in the cons…

    * update my hosts file to block sites that suck me in (youtube, reddit and maybe even this one). * listen to music with no vocals. For whatever reason, vocals distract me from thin…

    Love this. Reminds me of Kurt Vonnegut's "make your soul grow" letter to high school kids - https://news.lettersofnote.com/p/make-your-soul-grow

    Great article. Love the interactivity. One thing that really helped me understand CSS positioning (and centering) years ago was reading about the box model. Understanding the box m…

    This looks great. I spend a good amount of time each week grepping through Kubernetes log files. Looking forward to trying this out next week. I particularly like the pretty-print …

    I have a Flexispot standing desk. Before I purchased, I was concerned about how sturdy the desk would be in standing mode — but it's actually sturdier than my old sitting desk. I l…

    Great, but this is a private boarding school. I'm more concerned about the (over) use of Chromebooks in public schools. It's trivial for kids to tab over to Youtube or a gaming sit…

    Really interesting write-up and some funny rants about Apple/Spotify. I'd never heard the term "PP3 battery" before. Wikipedia tells me that this is the standard rectangular 9V/0.5…

    Great visualization! For those in the Northeast US, Cherry Springs State Park in PA is a wonderful place to visit for night viewing (and camping). It's one of the best places (dark…

    Someone needs to run a `git blame` on that line of code!

    "You don't wanna get mixed up with a guy like me. I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel." Almost 40 years later, Pee-Wee's Big Adventure is still one of my favorite movies.

    If one exists, I'd love to be part of it. Many of these comments really resonate with me (in my 40s as well). I find that I'm more effective as a developer now than I was years ago…

    Great tip. I hadn't heard of that museum and will have to check it out. If anyone else is interested in whaling, particularly Nantucket's past sperm whale industry, "In the Heart o…
