I used to write html, JS, and CSS on long flights and saw some side eye looks, but then I’d have to test load the website I was working on for mom jeans and the jig was up.

The weather in New England and upper New York is very much like German weather, and sometimes worse. We’ve had snow on the grounds since the 30th of November and it’s only barely reached 0C in the last week.

It was -15C a couple nights ago at roughly the latitude of Rome, next to the ocean too. And only about 50km northwest (inland) it went down to -25C.

This has been a colder December than average for the last decade, but we have mountains that regularly get meters of snow each winter, and they are way lower elevation than the alps too. Also as we all know the last decade has been stoopid warm.

Mt Washington has measured the highest wind speed in the world.

I used to use ORMs because they made switching between local dev DBs ( like SQLLite, or Postgres) and production DBs usually painless. Especially for Ruby/Sinatra/Rails since we were writing the model queries in another abstraction. It meant we didn’t have to think as much about joins and all that stuff. Until the performance went to shit and you had to work out why.

Or just building a straight close of your idea and crushing you. Happened to my startup.

Even then it would be most likely seeded by a probe from so distant that they’d never be able to travel here. Think Voyager probe, but maybe faster. If we’d sent one with a bio seed package and sent it right at the best life supporting planet we could find it’s still gonna be 10s or 100s of thousands of years before it even arrives, then a couple hundred million years for anything to evolve there.

It would be sorta hilarious if we were a distant science experiment though.

I’ve always used desoldering braid and patience. Always tinned first with 60/40 rosin core and some flux to get the heat flowing in faster and break the oxide layer.

Maybe finding a stand to hole the reflow gun above your work to free up a hand would help.

A good pcb clamp helps a lot too.

I haven’t been, but I thought the long hike limited the amount of visitors, or possibly tour ticketing as well.

I don’t think the matted grass is too bad considering that really any minor traffic in a limited area will compact the soil too much for grass to grow.

At least they have an erosion control in mind.

You mean like a Carriage. Where the term car came from?

And snakes hide in grass.

Pretty sure the Trump team would have plastered that all over the media if it had happened.

Good choice and those wheel weights aren’t too expensive either. Plus they stick in place. I’ve got a bunch left over from replacing rusty ones on my snow tires too!

One is a corgi and the other a Swedish Valhund. They are controlling our every move at this point.

Really though the 11 y/o corgi is in charge and the 1.5y/o Valhund is a maniac that just wants to play and run in circles with the 7 y/o kid. Utter chaos.

It’s like an acid response for her that causes her throat to swell. Not quite an allergy but feels similar to one i guess (she has a strong pine nuts allergy that she carries an EpiPen for).

Melt brand vegan butter is decent, though it’s pretty much just margarine from memory. Or I think the Trader Joe’s brand too, but I haven’t been there in a while so I’m not sure.

They do make the popcorn a bit more soggy than real butter though from what I’ve noticed.

We add brewers yeast and salt as well, adds a nice umami flavor and soaks up some of the margarine.

Arduino has always been a kinda shitified version of Wiring. The “founders” stole it from one of their grad students and have been making kinda dumb decisions since.

The main thing they’ve been good at is marketing. Arduino is a great name, but stumbling into the oddly positioned headers to make the shields unique is a good example of kinda dumb choices. Also the infighting with the board maker and ex-professors.

Wiring is a terrible name for a language, and completely unsearchable, but here’s a link to the originators of the wiring language (what became arduino) if you’re interested.

I was working with the education division about a decade and a bit ago when they had an open source platform with sensors and motors. Then iRobot abruptly killed that division too, right as our project was getting going.

I haven’t felt good about that company since.

Does anyone remember margarine? It’s mostly as good as any other butter, was historically much cheaper, and actually better in things like butter cream frosting (makes it lighter and fluffier).

My wife has developed an allergy to dairy in the last 5 years and all these alternative butters are ridiculously overpriced, but many of them seem to just be margarine with vegan butter branding Some of them like Miyokos are kinda terrible sometimes, or smell like fish oil when heated in a pan.

Let us know how that works out. We have 2 gods and a 7 y/o child.

They’ve all been untraining each other since about day 300.

I live both north and east of NYC, I want the later sunlight in summer and winter. The first hour of light is wasted on me and many others. Farmers maybe not, but around here that’s pretty much over by late October anyway.

I’ve also lived at the most extreme opposite end of the Eastern time zone in Michigan, and like the late evening sunlight even more!

In printing it’s a little different, but if you need an exact color you can add it to the process, much like adding a varnish or other fancy finish.

Orange was always a problem when I was a designer. It had to be specific, you had to send a Pantone chip along, hope it hadn’t faded or changed color over the years (or buy new ones constantly) and then it still came out different than planned.
