I still think about the guy sometimes. It’s perplexing how someone so smart turned out to be so dumb.

Was this coded on a phone touchscreen?

Top site, the Ian Knot must have already saved me cumulative hours of shoelace tying time.

No sense paying off debts early if their interest rate is lower than the profit you would get by investing. This is dependent on timescale though.

It’s taxation.

I heat up the sauna 4-5 times a week.

The last CD-drive I had burned at 52x. I still remember how it sounded like a small jet engine spooling up when the burn started. Amazing how I always got bit perfect burns and how the discs didn’t explode while spinning like a car turbocharger.

Smileys are where it’s at. :)

Dub techno is great for coding stuff, especially in the winter.

I also started to disable start-stop every time I drive after it once fucked me. I came to an uphill stop just when the light turned green so the car decided to shut itself off. After that I stalled the engine in my confusion when trying to move. Long line of cars behind me of course.

The irony with those is that once you’re at a stage of life where you can afford those, you probably can’t hear anything over 14kHz anyway. At least there’s that sweet midrange!

It’s one of the less harmful ways to do so!

Thanks, interesting industry knowledge. I need the panels to come off some day though. Otherwise I would have looked at glues/epoxies from the start.

I have a IKEA pergola on my backyard and I’ve been trying to come up with a way to attach some plastic paneling on top of it without drilling. This might be it.

My favorites are eastern instruments that have a meditative quality, like the Indian tanpura.

Also whatever instrument this man is playing.

But I think above all I’m a fan of the American steel guitar. That wailing sound evokes nostalgia and melancholy like nothing else.

No, plain old human made ones.

Finding logic errors 7 hours into the workday.

Kids today don’t know that until quite recently if you turned on the TV and you didn’t get any picture, you could give the thing a firm slap on the side and it would work.

“Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it; he who doesn’t, pays it.”

Goddamn, you just sold me.
