Depending on the language and context, an explicit method name like "findEventsFromLast6Hours" isn't that bad. If it's just a private helper method, I'd let it pass. Empirically, I've found that methods with ambiguous…
This is very similar to my setup[1]. I picked up a geekdesk frame on craigslist and threw an Ikea countertop[2] on it. I even have a humanscale keyboard tray that I haven't gotten around to installing. All in all, it…

It looks like the platform rests on the edges of the masonite. I wonder if it will leave depressions in the hardwood floors underneath? Assuming they don't own the place, their security deposit may help pay for the…
