Are you alright?

I built a working version of the Christmas lights from Stranger Things (that Joyce used to talk to Will in the upside down) for a friend's Halloween party. It used an arduino board…

It may interest you to know that React was first used in production in 2011 and the library was subsequently open-sourced in 2013. As far as programming tools go I don't think we c…

I think you're right. Anecdotally I, as well as most of my friends that still game, have become increasingly conscious of avoiding "help" when playing a new game. I'd never played …

Wifi light bulbs aren't fancy new gadgets. The Phillips Hue, for example, first hit the market nearly a decade ago. I'm sure there has been much development of the concept since an…

I don't think I could roll my eyes any harder if I tried.

I'm still in my first "real" job, almost 6 years later, and while it's not quite as lax as what you describe your comment made me realize that the slow pace is probably a big facto…

My first web job was building websites for a rinky-dink SEO company. My boss had zero qualms churning out trash content while trying to game the system. How can Google fight an inf…

SEO blog spam is a blight. I'm certain you won't, but you should feel bad for contributing more of it to the internet.

Please stop.

These are incredible, I need more!

I completed Lambda's part-time web program about a year ago and while I did come out with more knowledge than when I entered, I do not think it was worth the time or the money I ha…

Thank you!

Can you give an example? "How to do it" and "what steps to take" still sound like the same thing to me.

For anyone interested in tracking their own bike fit at home, I've been building a web app based on the park tools road positioning chart ( https://www.parktool.com/blog/repair-hel…

Definitely! I've been riding road bikes for ~5 years now and have "built" the last 3 bikes I've owned. I've become increasingly interested in frame geometry as it relates to bike f…

Agreed. These are frame geometry measurements, not contact point measurements as they are sometimes described in the article. A small but important distinction. The sentence: "Stac…

I'm working on a web app to track bike fit: http://app.mybike.fit I like to tinker with my fit to dial things in, but there are so many potential dimensions to tweak that it's easy…

The non-vocal majority does.

> First, as you might expect, aerobic and endurance exercise benefits greatly from being in a fasted (16-24 hr) state. You're light, quick and your body is devoting zero blood flow…

Agreed. I have two bikes - the notoriously stiff Specialized Allez Sprint (aluminum), and the Cannondale SuperSix (carbon). The carbon bike has wider wheels that allow me to run ~1…

It's not a cargo-cult mentality. It's the convergence on a set of best practices "illuminated" by analysis of user-behavior data, as well as the application of basic graphic design…

This is a great idea!

I think the confusion is that the design of this page: https://www.indiehackers.com/products is closest to the old layout where each block linked to the founder interviews. I basic…

I think he's saying that the article omits that space, but should include it.
