I first learned about him when I moved to DC and discovered Tyler Cowen's Ethnic Dining Guide ( https://tylercowensethnicdiningguide.com/ ) which had my family and I traveling all over the DC metro area trying some of th

I did it a while back to see if I would notice anything different. I moved to vim a few years ago on a whim after using emacs for decades, so I am far from a vim power user, but with the modest configuration I use, I couldn't tell any

The venerable joe editor ( https://joe-editor.sourceforge.io ) is apparently very comfortable for Wordstar users. I used it for a few years in college before I could afford enough RAM to run emacs and although I never actually use

I hope I have an opportunity to work with and/or know the author of this piece.

I think you're right- it might be more comfortable than, say, a race bike, but when I think about what it feels like to have my arms in the air for a length of time (like working on an overhead light fixture or something), I can only i

I feel like I'd get speared in the kidneys by the weird tail shroud thing in a rear-ender, although it probably wouldn't happen since I don't think I could wedge my bulk into that space to begin with :)

I can't even stand listening to it on my own bikes, particularly if I'm slabbing it somewhere on a freeway at a steady speed, the racket is insufferable after 15 or 20 minutes, even with plugs and a full face helmet. There seems t

my first thought was that this seems like the sort of thing that looks like it would be incredibly fun until my arms tired and went limp after gaining some altitude and I plummeted to my death. Now a jetpack exoskeleton on the other hand...

Kevin Cameron from Cycle World has written some of the most fantastic articles about these topics, in particular there's one that I'm struggling to find about the problems with solid camshaft mass when rpms started to get really h

Often when people are aware they're being recorded, especially for some kind of production like a podcast that they're accustomed to hearing with edits, they'll make far more umms and ahhs than they would in an ordinary conve

hah I wish I could! I've only done it a handful of times myself, but enough times to realize that if it looks like there'll be more of it in my future, I'll either hire it out or get someone to show me a faster workflow. That

The people I know who love working with Reaper the most are audio professionals who have days jobs kinda like mine as a programmer. They have a ton of repetitive tasks which can be automated to a great extent but which still require some hu

hah I had the same problem, finally about two years ago I decided it was time to ween myself off the book. A guy in my area has a small school which is largely focused on getting players off-book with the top couple hundred standards. It&#x

The instagram page of Lauren Pierce (bass) is a lot of fun for me since it's encouraging to watch a player of her caliber struggling with really difficult pieces, or working on pieces she doesn't enjoy but still motoring through t

When a cert is specified for a repo, the solver will use the cert and ca list when querying for packages, but after solving won't pass the cert and verify values when constructing the requests session to download the packages. There&#x

it does, but most of the users of this module are accustomed to being able to run "pip install -e ." in order to get the module editable in their virtualenv, and since this module has dependencies that are also in the private repo

I've spent the last couple of weeks experimenting with converting some work-related modules to use Poetry, and although I immediately loved a few of the improvements, there are a few drawbacks that weren't immediately obvious. Chi

ive been working remotely for a few years and do a little recording and mixing on the side. I like using plain old analog headsets since they make it easy to have control over the sidetone level from the headset mic, and they're usable

I was getting started in the field right around the time this was written, attending college (and later being employed) at a university that was an all-DEC shop. I wound up being introduced to VMS and Unix at the same time. I greatly prefer

The Briggs book referenced in the article is a really interesting read. I tracked down a copy after several articles like this one appeared shortly after her death. I assumed that the book primarily focused on child-rearing, but while that

hah that was my first thought as well; I've always been tempted to try it, but I was dubious about whether I'd have the discipline to keep the cards organized, and I feared that if I tried to make myself a piece of software to do

there is a passage in the book where he and his son are riding uphill into a headwind in cold rain, and Pirsig goes on a riff about what a folly it was to be on a 300. I didn't start riding street bikes until many years after I read th

I stick with it because I read the newspaper and eventually discovered that the wider a column is, the harder it is to read. I understand that it's not quite the same with code, and I don't know that there's any significant d

I was on in the early 90s via my university's 56k frame relay rig. Maybe the most exciting thing I can ever remember doing was that, because this was way before dialup TCP/IP, I'd use my 2400 baud modem to dial the university
