Yes wire wrapping and hard wrapping the same thing. Hard wrapping was something the current day mags called it (Popular Electronics) for one.

Back in the bread boarding days, hard wrapping was using a tool to physically wrap a hair thin insulated wire from one pin on an IC to another pin on an IC. Not using the PCB foil electrical path but rather a direct short path as possible w

Great seeing this again. I remember in its day Cray was like a mythical beast we only heard of since Gov was the only one with enough money to buy one. The C configuration with hard wrapped wires were awesome. Hard wrapping was the fastest

Forearm and leg pump battling lateral G forces, current day Fernando Alonso/Ferrari describes this during his race season if you following him. During the Senna video above, he takes his hand off the steering wheel with 2+ lateral G’s

Postman is exactly what I have been looking for. I used Fiddler for years and always thought it to be heavy and awkward to use. It's strange I never heard about Postman before this post. I like working out of the browser and Postman ha

Excellent points especially about the fiddles. One thing CP is really heavy into is the C/C++ realm, which can arguably apply to many platforms. I hope Chris Maunder reads HN and can chime in or start a new post on the future direction

Yes CP is primarily geared towards Win, that’s mostly because they pre-date current day languages and frameworks. But if they could fix comments and apply the same excellent moderation towards todays language, SO would have a definite compe

I have been using codeproject.com for many years because of its high quality posts and still use it today. SO has better advice in the comments. When searching I’m always pleasantly surprised to see CP come up in the SERP because I know I w

I have been a fan of F1 since the days of Nigel Mansell and I have got to say I am no fan of the new direction of Formula 1 present day. To me Formula 1 represents the pinnacle of engine/chassis engineering uninhibited by any green sta

Too bad newer developers can’t fathom what a game changer MSDOS was back in the day. I downloaded and dorked around with the code out of respect for what it did to PC’s 30 years ago. It’s interesting, I thought the codebase would be much la

I suspect its karma building posts. I noticed the phenomena when an off topic post gets popular real quick and makes the FP, other related stories quickly get posted. Not that there is anything wrong with it, its just something I’ve noticed

You’re right you can’t tell if they’re stolen, but if >10% in circulation are stolen (and growing daily) why would a legit company like overstock.com (just to name one) take them knowing this? And if they did, why would I trust them know
