Maciej is consistently excellent across his every project, and Pinboard is a great product I use every day, albeit with some rough edges. I'd be really excited to see what he could do with this fellowship. I fully expect I would be del

Dwarf Fortress is beautiful art. I feel confident the Tarn brothers will be remembered for centuries for this work. I don't know of any other game, software even, being so laboriously created from the heart.

Refined and extra-light grades of olive oil have a higher smoke point than canola (rapeseed) oil, actually. I had been using corn oil for its higher smoke point, in comparison to canola, but have now switched to refined and extra-light oliv

The whole thing took about a minute to write and a second to run. It confirmed that some of his folders had a problem and told him which ones they were. How would you do this in Windows? I'm so tired of this. Just because you don&#x2

Wood is an easily workable, relatively inexpensive, and, importantly, renewable resource. We'll be seeing more of 3D printing for sure, but you're kidding yourself if you think it'll replace carpentry.
