I imagine that part of the reason there are so many diehard trackpoint enthusiasts out there is because trackpad support in Linux is so frustrating. It's the one thing that I have never managed to make work and feel "right" o

Montreal is an extremely easy city to live in. Very inexpensive rent, good nightlife/events and arts/culture scene, and a pretty good transit system. The Quebecois will disagree with me on this, but I don't think you even nee

Best of luck. I've found azure far more difficult to manage even simple things with than on AWS. Even spinning up a single simple development server feels far more complicated.

The whole reason for experimenting with this was to be able to create traces on 3d printed parts - the test runs were just on rectangular coupons for ease of testing and because he printed what looks like hundreds of them.

Montreal winters are far worse than Ottawa, if only due to the laissez faire attitude taken towards infrastructure and maintenance of the city and buildings - not just government, but landlords as well.

I'm working on a product that has a similar case - we luckily have the benefit of the hardware having a display and input so that clients need to effectively pair themselves (i.e. you need to physically click an authorized button on th

"Einstein's Telescope" however, is fairly dry and a bit out of date now as well.

The resin.io team has made something like this called resin-wifi-connect[1]. It doesn't appear to be as simple as it could be, but it's prior art if you plan to make something more generalized. [1] https://github.com&#x

Is this so bad? It seems to me that using <i> for icons has become pretty standard across many sites and you shouldn't be using the <i> tag for italics anyways - there's <em> for that now.

A fun little demonstration to do when teaching sailing to kids is to fill a baking dish around half full with chocolate pudding and level it, then drag spoons through at a slight angle to simulate a sail. It's far from scientific and i

Carbon and kevlar tapes are used in sails to minimize their stretch along their stressed areas and allow for optimized sail shape. I don't think anyone selling or making sails tries to convince of any other reason.

This is not quite correct. Even while sailing downwind, the sails are still providing "lift" (if we are calling it that here). There are opposing forces for sailing - the Center of Effort (CE) and Center of Lateral Resistance (CLR

Once notebooks have been created, they are just json files that get rendered to html so there's no haskell or python code running. If you're allowing other people to upload notebooks though, you'll want to sandbox them inside

Another (not yet mentioned here) tool is Mjolnir. It requires some lua scripting but seems to be really flexible. I stick with bettertouchtool combined with some keyboard shortcuts though.

I've never seen Cycle before, but this looks somewhat similar to Mithril ( http://lhorie.github.io/mithril/index.html ), which is based on a semi-FRP virtual-dom approach. The thing that I prefer about Mithril thoug

I'm new to mongo still, but isn't it pretty rare to ever need to make a query like the one in the example with mongo? My understanding is that the (one of the) whole point(s) of using mongo is that you can organize your data in a
