I switched to dvorak and would never go back. 1. It took me two weeks to get to ~35wpm, and it was absolutely grueling. The next two months I ramped up to ~80. Now I'm slightly faster than my top qwerty speed (qwerty is incredibly h

1. Isn't "reyeast"ing only going to work if there's still significant sugar content in the must? If so, then it's just like any other wine company importing/sourcing their fruit, and then adding their yeast i

Forums and example projects are your new best friends. Always boil down the problem to the stupidest, simplest version and work up from there. In your case, it's a bare sample application board (see XPLAINED series from Atmel and var

If you're interested in why anyone would draw things like this, give Jung a read. His "Alchemical Studies" is chock full of diagrams, in addition to in depth explanations of the symbology and relations between the figures.

Well said. Your roast should complement your bean. Single origin ethiopian yirgacheffe/harar? Don't you dare roast that bean past light brown. The whole point of selecting where your coffee comes from is lost if you do somethi

I own a small vineyard. I can tell you without a doubt that the process of making wine is literally BEGGING to happen. The skin of the grape is covered with yeast cultures that are ready to ferment the sugar inside the grape. The second
