   While I agree with you, I don't think that "mastering" crocheting takes very long at all. Maybe two weeks of an hour a day - MUCH less than knitting.

   Hard agree. I'm not even that much of a fiber artist - I can crochet, and I can weave shepherd's slings out of plant fiber/paracord/other strings. But I believe the thinking patterns help me, especially in large-but-not-

   You're missing a key thing: font face is an artistic choice. The current situation around font licensing is akin to one guy "owning" a color. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vantablack

   I wish there were an all-wheel or four-wheel drive option. This would make it the perfect shorter-range adventuremobile for snowsports and remote backwoods climbing and hiking access.

    So then what is the point?

    Others have mentioned game dev, but they're also essential for guidance, navigation, and control - spacecraft, aircraft, robotics, etc.

    Kenneth Copeland has been a pastor for 50 years and his theology and pastoral practice is still terrible. Years of experience is not a useful metric when you could instead look at results.

    SPARK has some adherents in spacecraft programming for its formal verifiability and safety features.

    I cannot imagine how different my life would be if I didn't trust both of my parents to the ends of the earth and beyond from the moment of consciousness. I also cannot imagine how different my life would be if despite that, they were

    git can suck, but it's the best tool we've got for the job.

    I think the "most programming" thing has to be determined according to project type. You should have your architecture and data relationships all figured out long before coding when it comes to safety-critical systems.

    You see the same thing in early Jewish culture. The oldest book in the Bible, Job, discusses YHWH slaying Leviathan - embodiment of the sea and chaos. God often appears in the form of fire (the burning bush, the pillar of flames) while &quo

    A lot of 42's usage comes from it's proximity to NASA Goddard's cFS, the most widely used (and in my opinion, best) open-source flight software framework out there. However, many space companies move towards using their own s

    Seconding this. Skyfield is a great tool maintained by a great guy, Brandon Rhodes. I've built many a production tool for spacecraft with it.

    First of all, this is great. Tell your son a guy who makes spaceships thinks it's amazing. Constructive feedback: 1. Insight into how "smart" the opponent is via their answers to the questions they're given. 2. Charge in
