Still heavily under development: http://charsheets.herokuapp.com/ Pathfinder d&d based character sheet manager. I got annoyed with the static and excel based offerings out there so I created my own. Currently I view it

If I had a billion dollars to my name tomorrow I would probably not change a thing. My passion is coding. I would still find a job where I would feel like a valuable member of the team. I would still try my best to be better tomorrow than I

As an Icelander I cant say I agree with his description of us. Its like saying Brittain sucks because of Margeret Thatcher, without considering she was not the sole inhabitant of that country.

I've owned two of those. They are very comfortable. But the back of the chair ended up breaking off at the base both times.

I remember when I was a kid. The idea of dice, some rules and paper helping my mind escape the mundane realities around me and live epic adventures with my friends was fascinating to me. Today we still meet up (after almost 20 years of role

My group of close friends and I meet up once a week to slay dragons (yes, we are nerds). I was unimpressed by the character sheet offerings available online so I ended up creating my own for fun. It is running on flask, postgres and knockou

I started programming in the old, dark days of pre-internet when the only ways to learn programming for a young lad was to either find a book on the subject (In Iceland the books were pretty rare at the time), find a older more experienced

I get something similar from cucumbers. Even if there is just a hint of the juice that comes of cucumbers in my food I will taste it. It tastes like rotting cabbage mixed with dirt (if that makes sense) to me.

Very true. I live in Iceland and, while we do publish lots of books, it is not even close to one in ten. It is much closer to 1 in 100 maybe.

This stinks a little bit. A web developer for 14 years? And you havent backed up your code in months? I am not saying the story is false. I'm just saying that if your income depends on your code, back it up frequently. Also, how do you

In reverse, why would it be such a bad thing that he mentioned that she was asian? Is then not as offending that he referred to an individual purely by an article of clothing. PC, while good when faced with derogatory remarks and such, can

I see what they say are the reasons for closing it down.. But here is what I am hearing between the lines: "So guys, we are closing down the auction house! We are not really breaking even anymore between the cost of running the auction

I finished the game.. I wont spoil the end, but it felt very anti-climatic. More a "Oh, I am fighting the end boss? I didnt realize..." rather than a "Oh cool! I'm about to fight the end boss! Better get ready!"

Iceland is shown on the Pangaea map, it is very very very tiny, but it is there. Iceland did not exist as a landmass back when pangea was a thing.

I would rather point him in the direction of a pic microcontroller, straight AVR (without the arduino middleman) or maybe even one of the cortex boards out there. Arduino has been made too "fool proof" with external libraries and

I started playing, stoked the fire twice, realized that this single playing game had a "wait until you can click again" mechanic that was purely there to waste my time (I want to play, not wait. This isnt farmville). So I quit. It

It is an interesting and well written article about a disease more than 99% of us are fortunate enough never to have. I think the downvotes you are recieving reflect how on the internet much of the discussion going on is a result of people
