I hear guitarists and bassists do this quite a bit during gigs.

I just did this last year. I just got my boat, which is also my home, and in terms of outgoing, it's very little. We are talking £1000 a year for license and insurance and £50 a month heating in the winter. The problem I have is that c

It's also not enough for VSCode and Web Development. Opening VSCode on a medium sized Next.js project takes a good minute or so before Intellisense kicks in. But I'm not willing to pay the prices on the UK website. I think an M3 A

I use a headtorch, and then end up staying awake for 2 hours after.

That's not how you control the narrative.

Seems like the powers that be are acting super quick to broadcast their version of the story... Exact same happened with the GameStop fiasco.

Completely tangential: I tried VMWire fusion to run multiple browsers to get tickets for Glastonbury. Are virtual machines ever not slow? Running 9 virtual machines on an M1 mac, did not work... I needed to be able to take over at any point

I have some LiFePO4 batteries powering my laptop, and onboard electronics on my boat. They are very heavy, but have a super long life. Often forgotten, they are used a lot in automotive applications!

I feel the same, but won't ever accept non-remote, as I'd end up losing 2 hours a day, the money for lunch, and the transport money. Companies that are non-remote are also more likely to have a toxic work culture. And that also ne

Canals, I use 4G for everything. Do market research and find the best provider. It's difficult but not impossible to web dev.

I'm in London at the moment, as are many boaters. It's a bit overcrowded here.

Not in a way where your main currency is GBP. On a plastic boat, you don't have to black the hull, but things do break, engines need replacement oil, new filters. Painting, leaks in window frames, wifi subscriptions. There is no way th

Too paywalled; didn't read; The Robinhood case means the next time a short squeeze happens (I'm looking at you BBBY), then anyone is going to think twice about turning off the buy button. Although saying that, usually when it come

There's a common trope that everyones first game is going to be an MMORPG from scratch. I always try to convince them that a simple puzzle game is a much easier starting point, no AI, no netcode, minimal animation and good use of progr

I'd create a simple health check based on the integrity of the data your retrieve. Think about giving it a score based on how the data is shaped. If it's missing prices for example, then it immediately goes down to zero, doesn&#x2

I'm struggling with a site at the moment for exactly this reason, it requires an auth key to return the products. Puppeteer had it working, but if I need to do this in a google firebase function, it would be so much better to get it to

jQuery. Not that I actively use it. It's just not a month goes by that I don't have to interact with it. Oh! And Cheerio is based on it, and is great for web crawling.

I really like MJML. It's an abstraction layer that targets most email providers. You still need to test with a service like Litmus, but it gets you 90% of the way there.

Cotman are okay, but brushes are so important, and for watercolor they last forever. My recommendations... Student Paints: Cotman as mentioned, or Van Gogh Pro Paints: Daniel Smith Essential set (6 tubes) Brush: Size 10 Escoda Perla. That&#

I'm looking for a decent compact duffel bag, which can double as a oversized backpack. Ballstic nylon sounds like the stuff! Good for taking on holiday when you don't want to store a suitcase till the end of time! :D What's a

What isn't mentioned here is the constant gaslighting by MSM about 'forgetting GameStop'. It can't be measured, but there are some seriously powerful people out there who want people to leave it well alone. If there is h

I care that it makes it super easy and free to send an image as opposed to MMS and the confusing technology that exists there.

I carried one with a friend, and this functionality didn't help that much, we still had to take turns. Especially on a narrow towpath.

I have one I use for my diesel heater. I only ever fill it half way up though, as walking more than a minute with it full to the brim is a painful affair.

It doesn't. They only hold value if you don't build them, and older kits are less desirable as they are constantly improving. Gunpla are pretty much worthless once you have built them in the same way a movie ticket is worthless on

Overtrading is the worst way possible to trade, but it's what feels intuitive and 'playing the game' to most. I got suckered into it at the beginning, and thankfully didn't lose that much before I calmed down. Finding st
