Webstorm on OSX actually became more of a burden to use as my projects grew large. Excessive memory usage and crashing forced me to dump it in favor of Sublime Text. It's version history saved my butt a few times, but it was nothing th

Another tool that becomes useful as your npm dependency list grows is npm-shrinkwrap. It is too easy to get large projects into a state that the existing developers can build and test, but break in production builds and for new developers.

The FAA sets altitude zones to separate drones from helicopters, but these helicopters have exemptions that allow them to fly low. I have seen someone fly a drone around a low flying helicopter before. Both the drone operator and the helico

I think one of the issues with the microscope analogy is that microscopes provide their own light source and the object obstructs the light to produce a signal. The objects themselves don't emit light, where as the DNA is assumed to al

A microscope reflects light off an object to measure its optical properties, and bends the light with a lens to magnify its size. The audio equivalent would be more of a sonogram than the amplifier I think you are looking for.

Light and sound are physical phenomena that can be measured, reproduced, and ultimately amplified. The microscope is an example of very direct amplification, which has no parallel for amplifying microscopic sounds that I am aware of.
