I used to play MtG back in the early 90's, but got out because I needed money for college books, not cards. My son got interested recently through some friends and I started looking about getting him into it around the time WotC releas

There is a local charity that knits hats to donate to newborns at hospitals and they got me started. However, what really got me started was the loads of videos on youtube.

I'd recommend starting with a loom and knitting a hat or something similar. It's easier to be consistent and pick it up and put it down. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=hat+knitting+loom

For a bit of anecdata, I was diagnosed with ADHD in the past year. I asked around on some forums and somebody suggested knitting. I've tried it and I've found it helps me with my fidgety hands and helps me focus. I work remote and

A story from when I was in college: My backpack got stolen and it had my checkbook in it. I went into Wells Fargo (I became their customer because they bought my regular bank) to figure out what to do. I was told that I had to close my acco

I'm in a public speaking club and we often separate content (topic, grammar) from the presentation (e.g. good use of gestures) I've come to regard Gladwell as strong on presentation (writing-wise), weak on content.

That's actually what converted me to Vue. I did all of the Redux stuff, but then found Mobx and enjoyed that so much more. A friend of my told me "if you like React + Mobx you'd probably like Vue" (I think he was quoting

I would argue that racism comes from ignorance and insecurity. A lot of frustration with PHP comes from using it a lot (not ignorant) and not enjoying it. They want to be better programmers than they language would allow. Granted, PHP has i

Live Share lets you see which files your pair is looking at and what they have selected. You can also share a terminal session if you'd like. At work we mostly do Live Share + a Slack Huddle for audio. I think it works pretty well.

Oh man, Hypercard and ResEdit were my gateway drugs. I don't know of anything equivalent nowadays. The pinnacle for me was getting it to run my teacher's laser disc player.
