Awesome work, digging the dimensionality of the leg offset down to the frame and panel doors. Those Blum hinges are expensive but the soft-close is pretty sweet.
Some useful tips. I used to be enthusiastic about writing a blog on a static site I hosted, but the idea that it would be scraped to train some LLM makes me less jazzed about putting it out there.
Old videos were great too when they weren't stuffed with ads, asking you to like and subscribe, or have similar wacky faced thumbnails. Anytime money gets involved, the incentives get all out of wack.

Made some progress on the table and enclosure I'm building for my CNC. Hope to be able to fire it up this weekend for some test cuts.
Other than that, knocked out a small project, a picture frame made out of walnut to disguise our TV.
Made a big difference honestly. Used to work in an office where I sat for 8hrs a day and my back/legs would go numb after awhile. Went all in on an ergo set up during COVID. Sit-stand desk, split keyboard, vertical mouse, etc. I figure if I use them more than 40 hrs a week and they prevent some form of RSI or back-pain, it's worth it.
Also, the other half of the equation is stretching, yoga, and walking. If I have to wait 5 min for something to run, I'll do a quick stretch while waiting.
Trailer was 🔥. Definitely going to check this one out, thanks for sharing
Impressive. In the age of CNC, it's awesome to intricate handmade pieces. Hope to have his dexterity when I'm that old
Don't know if it's a holiday destination, but Dubai. Heat and shopping malls are two things I'd pay to get away from.
Reading comprehension and writing are two things that stand out to me. I've noticed people don't want to expend the mental effort to read long prose so they'll just ask for a summary of it. Same goes for writing emails or reports.
Critical thinking skills are a like muscle that needs to be used or else it will atrophy. Asking AI to think for me is like going to the gym and asking the trainer to lift weights for me.
Yeah, the worst heat waves are when it doesn't even cool off at night
Awesome, looks pristine. Hopefully you hit 88mph at least once
At those rates, I would imagine solar to be the way to go. Even at NEM 3.0 rates, you could add storage and still come out ahead fairly quickly.
Been pretty busy at work so #3 looks about right
Another reason not to use their platform
High Sierra shower heads are awesome. Installed them in each of our bathrooms. Feels like a rain shower, with more pressure then our previous stock shower head while still saving water. Win-win. They also manufacture them in small town in the foothills of the Sierra mountains which is a pretty cool fact.
Pretty cool. Love seeing old Web 1.0 sites still kicking. The 1996 Space Jam site is another example that gets brought up from time to time.

Yeah they can improve their UX all they want but since their co-founder is part of DOGE and wants to mess with social security, it makes choosing alternatives easier.
