"Every Grain of Rice" is my favorite cookbook ever. Its emphasis is home cooking so the recipes are pretty practical and it covers more than just Sichuan or Hunan cuisine so there is a lot of variety. The amazing part…
I'm a big fan of Buckaroo Banzai but it seems odd that you credit BB when the linked Wikipedia article is about the original source of "Yoyodyne" > Yoyodyne was introduced as a fictional defense contractor in Thomas…
If you are interested on programming something like a 6800 or 6502, but would like to make a practical device and not just run in simulation, take a look at the STM8. It's a very widely used 8-bit embedded controller…

John Kenneth Galbraith called this phenomenon "convenient social virtue".
After watching "Fitzcarraldo", be sure to watch "Burden of Dreams". Another director would have used practical special effects (models) to film dragging the steamship over the mountain and riding it down the rapids.…
"The Switch" [0] This set of blog posts that turned into a book is a great history of the underlying technologies that ultimately led to the computer, from the discovery of electricity onward. It's not a complete…

If you want a more modern microcontroller that can actually be used to make things, take a look at the 8 bit STM8 series. They are widely used (you may have a few already, toasters, rice cooker, car etc). They…
Perl is not generally faster than awk. Obviously there are cases where perl is faster, but for the text smashing that awk is meant for, perl usually much slower, particularly than mawk or recent gawk versions. mawk in…

Tesla has reduced (but not yet eliminated) cobalt in their batteries over the years and has further reductions in the works. Tesla does not source cobalt from the Congo.

Interiors don't weigh all that much being mostly fabrics, plastic and foam. A Pikes Peak quality roll cage is quite heavy. That said it's probably quite a bit under 4700 lbs, but according to Randy Pobst well above…
There is only one incident, not two.
I cook Chinese. Cooking on a typical gas rangetop is also painful. Not enough heat, and the wok is not very stable. I use a tabletop butane burner indoors (Iwatani 35FW) and it has at least 3x the heat and the wok is…
What sort of person do you imagine will find your "usual advice" necessary or helpful?
Do you provide her with a form 1099 at the end of the year?

Perhaps, but you have to feed older ones more.
In 1994 I got a new 486 computer to run a unix as I was using a mix of unixes at work. It was hard to choose technically between the various BSD and Linux disks from Walnut Creek CDrom. So I took a look into the mailing…
So by this theory people must really love janitorial and fast food work.
According to the article, the main storage aka black box was destroyed in the fire. They are trying to pull data from a secondary controller that was less damaged.
I get this about half the time using Firefox with uBlock Origin on Linux, sometimes I have to refresh multiple times.
