As a non-Texan, I'd be interested if could you share some of the dysfunctions of their government? I haven't heard many people claim that before, so I'm curious as to what I'm missing.

I'd highly recommend adding kitchen shears and butcher twine to this list. Both items have a ton of uses and I've found them to be indispensable to have around.

For whatever it's worth, I'm in this subset with you. I use github for all my work now, but > 98% of what I do is in private repos.

When I bought some bitcoins, I did it with cash. I took money to a bank teller, and wired it to an account; then the service sent me the bitcoin via email. I never showed ID, so there was no way to track it to me. I suppose if someone cared

I think that hiding things on a CC statement is a feature. There's a reason so many "adult websites" advertise the fact that they'll bill you with a nondescript name when they charge you.

I've got other projects filling my time, but I think there's a great opportunity for someone who isn't opposed to working on an adult-themed idea using bitcoin. Selling sex toys for bitcoin, specifically. I think the anonymity of it is a hu

I don't know anyone who carries pepper spray that's become less risk averse because they carry it. Isn't that kind of like saying carrying condoms makes you more promiscuous? The question is pepper spray vs. no pepper spray, I think for the

Odd, I've talked to multiple unrelated defense experts who recommend it (police, military and self defense trainers in the US). It's an area-of-effect tool, doesn't require extensive training to effectively use, and thanks to being non-leth

I use an Auber PID [1] with a crockpot. I "vacuum" seal by submerging food in ziploc baggies in a sink full of water. It all works fine, I've never felt like I needed to drop hundreds of dollars on fancy equipment. [1] http://www.auberins.

If this seems interesting to you, I'd also highly recommend checking out ServiceStack ( http://servicestack.net/ ). I've been using it for all my .NET API and web work lately and it's been awesome. It definitely helps that mythz is incredib
