Amazing! Thanks for sharing the your story. In the early 2000's my dad drove me a few hours up to St. Louis for my technician test. I had been listening to the hams on some tube receivers that my dad had and was studying the ARRL books

I wonder if a more effective tool for battling air emissions would be to only allow ads for airlines that address contrails. Contrails are something like 2% of global warming power and when addressed effectively could actually cool the plan

This inspiring. Keep it up and good luck! I like working in startups too and live well below my means. Have had about the same cadence as you re: being out of work. I have a dependent so my calculus is a little different, but similar on par

Not that I know of. I was adjacent to this work about 9yrs ago but have tracked it since. The technology is still too early and too risky to work on commercializing. Amazingly though, one of the lowest energy (read easiest, but still hard.

Agreed, he's an amazing man. He was on my Qualifying Exam committee....and I presented on dielectric laser accelerators. Apparently I didn't butcher it. I'm glad the effort is progressing and getting recognition! It would be

Growing up, my mom drew the line on vintage motorcycle parts in the dishwasher. Sometimes though, in the winter, the motorcycles were allowed inside. God bless her.

There's an incredible documentary on this. The scale of the engineering, the secrecy of the project, and the environmental challenges are wild. Azorian: The Raising of the K-129 -- https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2042

For computer work, I use a split keyboard. It allows me avoid internally rotating my shoulder. I highly recommend it. Split keyboards can be kinda expensive. It can be tested out cheaply by using a laptop and external keyboard -- left hand

I get that. There's tons of amazing possibilities and it's fun to imagine them and to hope they come out. I'm going to try to make something with my kiddo for the FW, but of course the focus will be on bonding and helping my

Love it. I'm excited to upgrade the mainboard and to put the old board in a new shell or the cooler master case. We'll see what the kiddo wants to do. Maybe she'll become a gamer and we'll get a 16. Anyway, you've g

I'll chime in and say that I love my FW13. It's a great machine. I got the DIY kit and had my 7yo put it together. It was straightforward with a little help from dad (even installing Ubuntu!). Now we fight over who gets to use it.

This seems like a bummer. I'm under the impression that one of the points of nix is to have pain free rebuilds. I wonder how to address this issue and what the source is -- is it a critical mass thing (more users/contributors solv

I always thought it would be a cool investigation to look at the distribution of entropy signals coming from celestial bodies and group them. I'd bet there is a non-'natural' entropic signal coming from planets with biologica

Small animals also help. :) I can't help but feel happiness and goodwill for a cute cat or bunny. Once I have that feeling, I can pay attention to it, keep it going, sit with it, or wish that feeling for myself or to others. If I lose
