You should've budgeted some time to see the sights on the weekend, at least! My company is usually fine with letting me stay somewhere over a weekend or two on business trips.

I made Tetris[0] on mine a few years back. Surprisingly, at almost the exact same time the Tetris MicroCard[1] was released, which was an officially licensed Tetris device based on the Arduboy. It was a crazy coincidence. I still love my

I can't answer that with a definitive "yes" or "no". Your example is something obviously good, but there are obvious downsides to this equation also. Lately, I've been thinking the world would be much better of

Blood-oxygen level is not relevant when it comes to mental well-being. I have the exact same problem as the parent commenter. I've tried exercising with a mask (cloth and surgical), and it feels like getting waterboarded (because the m

It’s a colorful proxy word for politicians living in DC. Similar to how a lot of Apple news is about “Cupertino”.

> All pinball machines offer a replay to a player who beats some specified score. Pre-1986, the replay score was hard wired into the game unless the operator manually re-programmed the software. High Speed changed all that. It was pre

> It’s strictly more permissive on the consumer side than GPL is. You have been misinformed. The GPL is a much better license for users. MIT is arguably better for the authors because they can deny certain freedoms to their users (the ab

I relate with the platitude, but who is actually working on a free/decentralized metaverse right now? This just seems like something hackers are completely uninterested in, so the corporations will fill the void. This isn't quite

"would've been vastly higher" is an unfalsifiable statement. The only thing we can conclude from the actual real data is that Australia's outcome has been relatively poor, just like the rest of the world accounting for p
