Why is it called a chicken farm and not an egg plant?

It's very hard to find a good keyboard. The growth of the mechanical keyboard community, and the appearance of low-profile mechanical switches, coupled with the fact that I can now make my own keyboard has solved this problem for me. It's also hard to find a good pointing device, or a good screen, camera, microphone, graphic card, etc. Finding a laptop that combines all those things together and is acceptable is practically impossible.

At least you can buy a good shovel.

You can recognize a democracy not by how government functionaries are chosen by voting, but by how fast they can be removed from their offices when they blatantly stop working for the benefit of the people that elected them.

As a part of the hackaday prize, there were mentoring sessions, and I decided to try it and had one with Kliment Yanev. We talked about my cheap walking robot, Fluffbug, and he proposed a nice solution for too long servo cables.

Sure, you can cut them, but then you have no plug, and either you have to solder them directly to the PCB, or attach a new plug, which costs and requires tools.

His suggestion was to use one of those plugs for ribbon cables, that bite into the cable when you close them. No tools.

Why should I care about all those problems of humanity when I have my own problems.

Why do we even bother?

I hate it when they hire you as a Python programmer and then make you program in YAML.
