Most of the advice I've received in life has been misleading – most people did not know what they were doing, are probably unaware of what actually mattered, and are different from you in ways they are biased not to perceive – so recen

Philosophical Questions are good, you must engage with them! However, look at Wittgenstein, Lao Tzu, Nietzsche, and others who proposed compact solutions (or approaches) vs. the Kantian or analytical treatise style. You don't need to i

I find myself extremely frustrated by this website. Where is a code-sample, or any description of how it works, or what it is? Why this strange "tour"? Just put all the information on the first page!

What about all the people who made great contributions that go unrecognized? Is it not more of a shame that the project was not named after one of them?

The hard/soft boundary is indeed very difficult, especially when you have bundles of leads in all directions! I did some work with stick-on stretch conductive textiles, both silver and polymer-based (Eeonyx), and something I always wis

Yes, you're missing out by not being pushed out of your comfort zone. There are many things you're not missing out on: expensive cost of living being a good one, but even living in New York I feel like I'm missing out on the
