Me too! I'm a big fan of Rob Robinette's guitar amp page [1] for similar reasons [1] https://robrobinette.com/Amp_Stuff.htm

I think a lot of the larger form-factor/larger capacity models are still shuckable, though sometimes you still have to put kapton tape on one of the pins to allow it to work with a…

No, I don't think you'd see much benefit if you're already within a healthy BMI range. Generally, drugs like Ozempic or Wegovy are going to make you feel less hungry and, when you …

What makes bitcoin different other than it being older than the rest of the pack?

My experience is only anecdotal, but I think most city centers I've spent much time in (Austin, Houston, Tokyo) haven't had many families around during the work week either. If you…

That really depends on which part of the city you’re in, my neighborhood is a sea of strollers!

I feel like this does a disservice to a prospective React developer in that, the hard part isn't finding what all the options are for each of these areas, its finding the one to st…

Congratulations! The two of you easily became two of my biggest role models after I was introduced to web development; its been a pleasure to follow your general trajectories. Than…

I haven't dropped Dropbox because I was unaware of the appointment of Condoleezza Rice prior to this poll. I've been considering dropping it for awhile for general privacy reasons,…

My friends, coworkers and I use it constantly (nearly daily) for the same stuff we used to use Venmo for: splitting tabs/cabs/etc. It's just a little more convenient in that a new …

In my experience (I'm an instructor at one of these schools), the vast majority of incoming students already have a 4-year degree in a different area. I think for many people who m…

A couple more: * ⌘ + ` (tilde key) to switch between different windows of your current application * ⌘ + l (lowercase L) in most web browsers to highlight the address bar

I actually used unirest.rb as one of the tools to teach my students about HTTP requests. I loved the clear syntax and found the experience a lot more straight-forward than many of …

Wow, I'm still a relative newcomer, but I constantly pull up the CSS and JS for any site that seems interesting. Considering how easy Chrome devtools makes it to play around with s…

UMich is not really emblematic of mid-level schools. While rankings don't mean a lot, UMich is still ranked #13 by US News & World Reports for graduate-level economics and thus wou…

Why wouldn’t the millions of unemployed Americans train themselves to code? I'd say this is exactly what my friends and I have done. We had been nerds growing up but the majority o…

My experience is nearly opposite. The last time I bought a CD was over 10 years ago, I attend concerts and music festivals often (1-2x monthly) and consider these experiences much …

As others have said, I could probably answer many of these depending on your definition. I typically consult multiple reference books daily. I'm usually reading some piece of ficti…

A lot of this criticism is also assuming everyone is using their own computers. At a couple of places I've worked, we could store our files on a network drive but we got a fresh in…

When I was living in Tokyo, I used to go eat at a mexican restaurant in Yotsuya where a fellow Houston-ite was the chef. She'd always give me a couple of free cervezas and maybe a …
