From Linkedin Post[1]: To kick off our Gear Store, we're auctioning three exclusive Anduril Relics through eBay for Charity with full proceeds benefitting Blue Star Families. These…

This is generally my goal with Emacs customization. I'm basically just using APIs (Spotify, Outlook Exchange Server, myFittnessPal, Reddit, HN) in a common Emacs interface. The dow…

That type of vehicle is called a hybrid airship! [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_airship

My hypothesis is that fashion has taken a backseat to the numerous other (mainly digital) ways people use to express their individuality. If you're interested in fashion or trends,…

I use mine [1] mostly for Org-mode but there are a few other goodies included. Eventually I'd like to wrap it with use-package for portability. To the curious: don't hesitate to as…

Maybe take a look at Pandoc[1]? It converts between Org-mode and Microsoft formats. [1] http://pandoc.org/

Not to mention that equipped with a bike and the coaster [1], you could easily make it between Downtown (either Santa Fe or Old Town), and Sorrento Valley in 40 minutes. Granted, t…

Hey, I want in on this action! I live in Hillcrest and work in Poway!

That all sounds pretty bad, but there is a lot that makes San Diego a really great place to lives as well: - _Beer_: If you're into beer, San Diego is a REALLY great place to be. T…

I grew up in the east bay, went to college on the central coast (Cal Poly), and have lived in San Diego County for the last 6 years--specifically Carlsbad, East Village, Little Ita…

As an aeronautical engineer (structural dynamics, aeroelasticity, stress analysis, etc.), I can definitely validate this claim--at least partially. At the lowest level, things are …

Couldn't they push this out as a future software update?

This bothers me as well...and definitely becomes an argument against the iPhone 7 Plus. It's going to be difficult to choose between dual camera / longer battery life, and correctl…

Nice, I didn't realize they were working on that--I'll have to do some feature comparisons, but this seems like it might be a better fit.

Has anyone developed GPS for the Pebble? A quick google search reveals this Kickstarter [1], but is anyone aware of something more mature or a future Pebble design which will inclu…

A reddit to usenet bridge has been on my TODO list for ages now--I'd be totally fine if we just went back...

This is objectively not true [1] and has the same sort of arrogance that frustrates people who live in other areas of the state. Is the cost of living ridiculous? Absolutely, but t…

I can certainly verify this. Look no further than Nastran [1] which is ubiquitous in the aeronautical / aerospace industry. Using fixed width fields isn't even uncommon--column edi…

I think the best use case is overlay screens particularly for backpacking or travel--really anytime battery is a concern.

I'm less concerned about the logo than the app redesign. Sure, the logo seems to be vying for attention, but it's understandable given how connected time-in-app is to ad revenue. I…

I used tt-rss for a while as well and can highly recommend it. The forums are certainly hostile, but if you have a genuinely good question that hasn't been asked / answered before …

I've started to give a pass on this sort of thing. A lot of time the author doesn't have direct control over the publishing medium. The text is Stephen Fry's, but the site design, …

> As much as I despise the lack of depth in the average content, I feel confident that Facebook has stumbled on something in our animal behavior that draws us closer to it. For me …
