As a teenager, a friend and I built an underwater rocket, with the idea that a solid model rocket engine would burn when submerged, provided we could get it lit. We started with an Estes model rocket ( https://estesrockets.com&#x2

They start demoing the product in 6 seconds and the whole thing is less than a minute. It seemed fine to me.

I like this paper quite a bit. Including photographs (color!) was a wonderful touch.

It is interesting as a historical document from a period of experimentation and development at MIT on Logo, and this particular implementation for the PDP/11. I find the IBM one comparatively bland as a standard reference manual from t

My dream. Over my entire Army career, I went between failing and barely passing the sit-up test. I did just fine on the run and push-ups and was always doing a ton of additional sit-up exercises, but it was always a major stressor whether

BASIC (GW & Apple) was ubiquitous, but a BASIC compiler was incredibly difficult to find, even illicitly. And 13-year-old me had no hope of purchasing it for $500.

I had a debate on the Criticker site about this topic since they try hard to turn your raw ratings into a normalized span. The fact is that because of ratings sites, I'm very rarely watching 1-star movies. That's good! So the lo

Isn’t this what Apple News+ is for $10/month, at least roughly? I do wish there were more options to choose what’s in the bundle though.

I’ve found that the official Obsidian Sync solution performs well and has no issues with conflicts, unlike iCloud Drive which I used prior. It does feel pricey for a single feature, but I just frame it as valuable support for an amazing pro

Whether or not this is “backed up by science” (as replies have focused on), my own personal long term experiment says that for me this is absolutely the case. At a certain lull in the day I can either take some time to relax and feel rejuve

I find studying and remembering technical information pretty straightforward, and I’d say I’m actually good at it if I think about my work life. Synthesizing lots of disparate (sometimes old) data is something folks say I do well. When I in

I tried for a long time to have a “better” memory but have eventually come to terms than mine is, at least empirically, worse than most, regarding personal experiences. My behavior has changed as a result. As one example, I collect few pict

Yeah it’s an interesting choice. I’ve not been to a conference in forever and have lost touch of what the norm is. I wonder whether the policy is a net up/downside as they try to build interest and get the thing established. My hunch

A better answer would be some recommendations for component pieces. e.g., I will need most of the essential things in https://github.com/go-chi/chi , so why bother rolling a version myself? The same goes for things like

I remember there being several drills on "scanning," which they defined as looking for a word or phrase on a page. I got very quick at that with practice, and those drills have helped me be able to flip back and forth in books. I

In 5th grade, way back in the 80s, my school had a mini-course in skimming that we took for a few weeks. They taught various techniques and the tests were pretty cool: here's 30 pages of text, you have 10 minutes to skim, and now here&
