What one person thinks is "fun" and is their "hobby", is subjective and therefore personal. Many people define their "hobby" as the thing that they do when they are not getting paid. That may be just watching

The problem is that (1) is, to me, invasive. What if their "hobby" is to work for a political interest? What if it is religious in nature? What if it is sexual/adult in nature? What if they have no hobbies because they ta

Same here, but I can't figure out how to fix my main annoyance with the WSL: deactivating the bell!!! There is no reason for my computer to be making noises when I'm using tab completion!!!!!!!!!!

Hacking and programming are different than CS. The illustration that I use is this: I also have a music degree, but a music degree involves much more than being able to read (and write) sheet music. Of course a music degree involves this s

Your computer replaces many things that you used to have to pay others to do.... Should it be taxed like a person, too? Software replaces many things that I used to have to pay others to do. If we follow the same logic, I should be paying

I wish there were. I would buy a Windows 10 phone at this very second if I could get it with CDMA. I am unaware of any Windows 10 CDMA phone, from a trustworthy source or otherwise. The HP Elite x3 ( http://www.gsmarena.com/

Imagine that you are in a car accident (the other person hit you). The insurance company uses your sleep tracker to claim that you were negligent due to not getting enough sleep the night before, and are therefore at fault, so they won

Don't tell me that a LM386 is bad without telling me why and what to replace it with. If you don't, then you're not actually helping me at all, but rather it just sounds like you're spreading FUD.

For the record, I show all of my programming students the redblobgames website (towards the end of the semester and they are working on a final, "fun" project). It's an awesome resource!

I am embarrassed to say that I burned 3 hours on this. Very nice job so far. I would still be playing it, but it crashed the tab due to Chrome running out of memory (16GB RAM on my laptop!!!). A few observations: 1. I was very much having

cute idea, but a few issues I had: 1. No instructions. I couldn't figure out what to do for a while. 2. No sound? Learning to hear a foreign language is much more important than learning to read it!

This is a laughable "list". They list a handful of big-name schools. Here's a reality check: most research universities "fully fund" a PhD for any STEM field. Oh, and once you are on the page for a bit, a full-pag

"Legitimate" is not the right word for this. "Feasible" is more correct. Set the video as hidden and it bypasses content checks, but you can still share a direct link to the video, thereby taking advantage of YT's

1. You need to talk to the department heads at your university and let them know. Schedule a meeting, and when you bring up your (very valid) points, point to the rows of books on their shelf, and show them your now-extinct cards. It will

Your anecdote suggest confirmation bias, because the opposite is equally possible. How do I know? Because I am the counterexample. Nobody in my family speaks anything but English. I am from a small town. I have never had a conversation
