People should really use a mandoline rather than a knife while playing mini games. You'll slice both your cukes and fingers much more evenly.

I have tuned mountain bike suspension (recently) and took undergrad control systems theory class (ages ago). And I am struggling with the PID analogy here. It seems to me that a suspension system has two separate PD controllers which share

I recently put shelving up in my garage and could not convince myself to use anything other than OSB. It was just so damn cheap - half the price of any plywood for the same thickness. The only cons are the appearance and screw holding abili

After some reading I have come to two conclusions: 1) I have written many functors in my life without describing them as such 2) "Pure assembly" functor doesn't make much sense. Functors, both in the CS and mathematics sense,

When using hot peppers I remove some of, or all, of the seeds and pith. You can greatly control the amount of heat this way since the seeds and pith have the most concentrated capsaicin. Maybe habanero is too potent for that strategy but it
