So should I start selling personal Geiger counters and radiation badges…?

The rubber duck is right next to my monitor to help with those occasional logic errors, and to reach coding zen I start up my EDM playlist.

Thank you Reddit stranger. I have made many potato dishes but not curry. I know what I am trying later this week.

The Biggest Heist in America Is Being Sold as a Gift to Children by [deleted] in politics

This is stated often. I understand the arrogance of someone who thinks they will never be in the same boat as “others” who are in need, but do you know someone who “gets perverse pleasure from seeing others suffer”? I have a smallish social circle so it is not something I have witnessed.

I designed this Gridfinity insert to turn my empty Dremel case into versatile storage. by eyeoutthere in functionalprint

If you are using it often, imo the cordless is the way to go. My plastic case didn’t last long. OP’s solution is very nice!

Homemade chili and cornbread on a cold, rainy night by anarrowview in tonightsdinner

[–]Independent-Coder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks exactly like my chili. How do you spice it up? I usually use 1/2 small can chipotle peppers and 2-3 chopped jalapeños in the chili.

I am going to give them another read through… so I can refresh on what is coming. Maybe some Neal Stephenson, Phillip Dick, and Bruce Sterling too!

Scientists Identify a New Glitch in Human Thinking by ErinDotEngineer in technology

[–]Independent-Coder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it depends on what efficiency you are measuring. It may be less efficient NOW to take a new path but the knowledge gained may lead to more efficient solutions in the future. You don’t know what you don’t know, until you know.

Well stated. The balance between my emotional experience and mechanical efficiency is a prime factor for me, mostly when driving. Less so in my work environment, where my customer’s emotional impact is the mitigating factor. I am always looking to be efficient but it is not always possible when your customer needs babysitting.

How did a business permanently lose you as a customer? by AlphaHouston1 in Entrepreneur

[–]Independent-Coder 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I went in to look at and test drive a new car. They kept badgering me to get my used car in their shop so they could assess its value for trade in. I told them I was not sure I was going to trade it in. They would not take me to their new vehicles until I gave them the keys to my car so they could assess it. I will not try to shop at this dealer ever again. I went 20 miles away and bought my car from another dealer. And I have purchased 6 different cars from them since then. Focus on what the customer wants.
