Fender 1957 Deluxe tube amp clone. Built the box, soldered the components (from a kit and a diagram), then upholstered it with tweed. Super fun and satisfying project, looks like a…

Am moving on to a new role. Have 10,000 vested options at $2 strike price which is the same as the last FMV. Company estimates current value at $10. Distant future exit is likely i…

My wife has a shopify store, does about $1k per month and less than half of that goes through paypal. Out of nowhere today they disabled her account for 'violating user agreement'.…

Is there a good programming language and environment for kids? I started learning coding in my own around 10 yrs old with qbasic. Scratch is super aawesome, but what is the next le…

Yes this is true. They often lose money on the premiums, actually, and then make money on the float. A very simplified example: You pay $1,000 per year for 10 years on home insuran…

I need something like this to let non-programmers create some basic JavaScript scripts/flows in an app I have. Obviously would need to be some level of power user but hopefully doe…

The YouTube slowdown is just using the YouTube API. For mp3, it is using the html5 file and audio Apis, and a JavaScript port of the sound touch library. Everything is done in clie…

Since you are using youtube to learn songs on guitar, you might try this out (I made it): http://tunetranscriber.com Let's you do marks and loops as well as using the playback cont…

If you are interested in guitars/music and HTML5, I wrote a transcribing tool (looper, slow downer, etc) that runs in a browser and uses the Audio APIs. Wasn't sure if it would be …
