    Pocket (getpocket.com) has a pretty wide selection of long form writing. The recommended articles are curated by humans. Their app is especially nice if you get on a plane and need…

    The proof is likely to turn up some interesting factors. The reason why something is P and something else is NP is the big question.

    OMG, the wave animation on the page is killing my CPU :) I'm pretty sure there has to be a better way.

    Was it just the windows kernel? Or did it include all of the utilities in Windows?

    I always had the impression that stoic virtues mandate that someone who has power to bring change and improve the lives of others also has a duty of doing so. I guess the problem w…

    I agree. I also really appreciate the build quality in the remote. I am a bit disappointed by their slowness in supporting Google Home by default - hence my project. It would be a …
