Looking through the Quickstart docs, they have an API that can generate code. However, I don't think they have a way to do "Day 2" code editing. Also, doesn't seem to have a freemium tier...need to start paying even befo

The elevator dings (1 for elevators going up and 2 for going down) isn't as widely used as it should be... you have to hunt for the light up arrows on a double corridor of elevators (for example 3 on one side and 3 on the other) when t

I had a quick glance through the unusually formatted resume, and saw big glaring gaps in employment. Also, seems like you just graduated from University a couple of years ago ? Those 2 things would just make me close out the tab and onto th

Not me - if I don't want like a website's design, I am going to close the tab. Similarly, as a hiring manager (mainly software engineers), I come across some very "unique" resumes which I do look through out of curiosity

I got a "Donate" full page blocker popup in my first second of ever visiting this website- really turned me off, why would I donate to a website I barely got a glimpse of ? Immediately hit the back button...

I read his description of the LEDs being powered by brute force looping...even though he uses a buffer IC, the CPU still does the monotonous and continuous looping to keep the LEDs intermittently supplied with current. I wish he had used a

I have recently gone down the solar panel rabbit hole too but I never tried the "fancy portable mini panels" cause they seem to weak and overpriced. Instead, I acquired two large 140W panels that had been removed from an old insta
