100% agree. It's a fun name, but it ends up begging the comparison. The look and feel of it was an instant download for me. It's actually exactly what I want and even tried / failed to build on my own for years. I'll

I've had several clients bought up by PE over the years. Usually just after my work with them refactoring for growth. It's fascinating to me to read about them having anything not go their way. Every deal was so clean and effic

Sisyphus was a stone carver. I use that idea in my game Bouldering. The joy of wearing out these stones until they are small enough to carry in a pouch - the size of marbles. Only to be given another boulder. For free. And, he gets to

I didn't get there on my last visit, but https://www.casafilmbar.com is apparently doubling up on their 3rd place karma by combining a bar with video rental. I've been thinking about offering free videos in town someho

There's also https://anonradio.net which is less about hacking and more just hackers with music to share. It's classic SDF-based fun.

There are at least a couple of outfits claiming a nano coating or a nano glass surface for solar panels that are so smooth as to not collect dusts. Their other claim is greatly improved angular photon capture since the panel is just that f

Just had the same here in Washington state for the Little Giant fire. Great image in the article. We had another fire cloud behind Rainier the other day, and saw it from the Rount Mainier farm - it really looked like the volcano was smoki

I made some charcoal in a tin a couple years ago from branch ends of an arbutus tree. I didn't realize how much I was really making. It's great stuff. Very enjoyable feel and marks nearly all the papers I use it on. Never tried

When I read these stories of bibliophiles and their stacks, I really wonder more about their book flow. How many are they bringing in, processing (reading, skimming, reviewing, studying, etc.), and then what's the output look like. A

Agreed. I've figured it out during the drier months in the NW of the States. Plenty of work in the woods, workshop, maintenance, and helping neighbors with the same. But winter and the rains I would inevitably put on 10 pounds and l
