Yeah! His video about dishwashers completely changed and greatly improved our dishwasher experience!

It’s good to see you here! I totally agree with quality there (although not from personal experience) but taking as an example your videos, Idk how you first came up with the idea of the “wife mode” but now your video have gone from somethi

I’ve fallen deep into the mechanical keyboard hobby so I’ll likely be tinkering with qmk or 3D printing a case or researching how to route out a solid piece of wood to build a custom wooden case. And in case somebody is curious, no, is not

Quite an interesting read. I’d make a distinction between tired and drained. There are EOD that I feel tired but deeply satisfied because I did what I had to do, was productive, and what I did was something worth doing. On the contrary ther

I'm enjoying those! Honestly, I had a bit of impostor syndrome kick when you mentioned that the 330 course was required, being self taught and all... but I know OCaml so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Currently going through the Crafting Interpreters

Had an amazing experience with OpenComp (disclaimer, I accepted the offer). First conversation with the recruiter was very straightforward and included salary ranges from the very start. First round was coding with real life examples for da

Nova is one of the reasons I picked Lavarel for my next product. Laravel as a framework is pretty good but the ability to add commercially supported things like payments and dashboards with almost no effort was the tie breaker for me!

I’m looking forward to picking up Scheme (currently learning Tcl) and this provides some good ideas/resources to go about it!

I’m curious about how you use spaces and arrows. Is it that you have space work on tab but on hold it becomes fn1 or allows you to jump to a different layer? I don’t have split spaces but it had never occurred to me to use space as a mod!

This! I’ve also started multiple projects with a bunch of initial enthusiasm only to see them fade. Lately I’ve changed to just work on them consistently every day, just 25 mins (or more if I feel like it) and I’ve made more progress in thi

Also, +1 for Go. I think that one of the things that makes Rust and Go such great language is how strict their compilers are. This moves the cognitive load of writing same code from the developer/team, to the compiler. Go is also simpl

This is pretty exciting! I really hope it can be part of some to help inspire more involvement , creativity and innovation on the hardware front! I’m a huge fan of hardware but it’s just seem not feasible professionally when software offers

This. You can feel the author’s excitement about teaching electronics and emphasis intuition over rigorous mathematics proofs. An example is that they talk about opamps as Lego blocks and how it can be configured to be an amp, a filter, a b

Not the author but I’ve noticed that when it come to Tk, by modern they usually refer to the new widgets released in version 8.5. Tk used to have a very distinctive look and not-native. With the new widgets it is a look closer to native loo

I’ve been learning Tcl and it seems like a very nice tool to add to a developer’s toolbox! And Tk, I can’t even… I’m planning to make a generated gui for php artisan (Laravel) by parsing the --help. We’ll see how it goes :)

I like the comments here. For me, I’d rather stay in good terms with teammates than with superiors, only because is unlikely to get a good referral or another offer from a superior after quitting, while it’s a lot more likely to get good re

Backend has quite a bit to do with managing data, aggregating it, modifying it, sanitizing it, etc. Because of that I’d recommend learning a bit of SQL. The Postgres manual is actually quite accessible and it had a huge impact on my career.

I had a good experience with grav. It being file based (i.e. no db) made it very easy to understand and modify to do what I needed. The included admin dashboard makes it pretty straightforward to hand content administration to non-dev users

Just started watching it and it's great and hilarious! I guess one of the things that I'm enjoying a ton is that I also don't know anything about farming so I'm as surprised at Clarkson is. It's humbling (seems for
