Years ago my friends and I took a trip to the Wallowas in Oregon near the Idaho border. We were mostly camping backcountry with a few nights at campgrounds. I filtered my water at the campgrounds, but when we went backcountry, I was about t

I got rid of facebook in 2010. I never looked back, but I needed a little social fix now and again, so I started using instagram. We all know what happened there. It was so perfect. Now it's ad, line of stories, boomerang, boomerang, a

Having removed a couple death blocks myself from climbing routes while doing maintenance, I can tell you how scary these things are. They are very heavy, but someone using it as a hand hold can dislodge it very easily. One block I rapped in

Sometimes it's not possible to say no. The rip and replace strategy of SV will surely force some people to work more than a 9 to 5.

I've been an arch linux user for a very long time. I very much praise the documentation and it always gets me 90% of the way there when trying to solve a problem or configure something. But when I need that extra 10% I can usually find

yeah, I don't fully understand this. I've had the least problems with GOPATH than I have with any other language. You literally set GOPATH=${HOME} and it just works.

I started with the GH60, then handwired a broken ducky shine 3 with a teensy 2. I now use a jd40 and I'm waiting for a planck. I didn't come up with it out of the blue... I think I was asking some IRC friends about dip switches an

I used to use software to map keys. I religiously want to get rid of caps lock and use it as escape... but I also want control near by. But let me tell you something; if you are a power user, then relying on software to map keys kind of suc

I've heard people complain about print being a function now more than a hand full of times and my response is always "are you really using print that much in your code base?"

I totally agree with this. I hate auto-playing videos too. But I am curious what people's opinions are on youtube auto-playing. when I go to youtube or click on a youtube video, I kind of have the expectation that it will start playing

The Gogs codebase is pretty good, although it has many uses of package globals, which doesn't sit well with me. I mostly like what's in there: https://github.com/gogits/gogs

I really like ngrok. I use it a lot. I just really dislike how the TCP tunnels work. With HTTP you get a unique subdomain which makes it harder for people to just scan and connect. With TCP, it's always 0.tcp.ngrok.io, so you can just

Grow using the double bucket method. They are easy to move around and don't take up a lot of space. That's what I do now and it's been fairly successful for peppers (super hots) and tomatoes each year.

I decided to download snapchat and try it a couple months ago to see what all the fuss was about. I might be a black sheep here, but it was really confusing. I had no idea how to use it. And I've been building software for 15 years too

I misread this as "Hacker Cracker", which is another nonfiction book about a kid growing up in the bed-stuy and gets into computer hacking. Another very good read if you are into old-school hacker stories.
