What's better than a simple stool project? A ridiculously simple one. Here are plans for a workshop stool you can make, inspired by that 'simpler is better' concept.

Materials Required
1-1/4-in. screws
16' 1x3
2-in. screws
2' 1x4
3' 1x6
4' 1x8
Hinges
Wood glue

I get asked this question often, and my answer is always the same: Use SVG if you can! I have nothing against SVG. It’s just another approach for creating shapes using another syntax with another set of considerations. If SVG was my expertise, then I would be writing about that instead!

I'm guessing I'm not totally alone when I say my head shape doesn't easily fit into the standard oval hat block shape used for most hats.

I have a few of those relatively inexpensive hat stretchers (Hat-jacks) that they sell at just about every good hat store. The first time I used one I was really happy to have found a tool that could help me relieve the front-to-back pressure I get with nearly all hats.

I initially shaped my hat-jacks in a way that I thought was more closely aligned with the actual shape of my head. After using them on multiple hats for more than a year, I was seeing some shortcomings with the design.

The text will be off! Even though rectangles are perfectly centered.
But even if font can have its metrics unbalanced, it doesn’t mean it does. What happens in reality?
In reality, most of the popular fonts have metrics slightly off. Many have it significantly off:

Thus, that module was deprecated in favor of Nelson's OpenAPI::Client::OpenAI module. Throw the 13K+ lines OpenAPI spec for OpenAI at it and it just works. Further, the module is pretty much a single Perl class rather than a bunch of hand-crafted code.

CPAN authors know it can be hard to keep modules up-to-date (mea culpa, mea culpa!) and this module is no exception. I need this module so I offered to collaborate and created a PR to update it to version 2.0.0 of the OpenAI spec. It now passes all the tests (for those wondering, you need an OpenAI key and it costs $0.04 USD to run the test suite).

In trying to build a Whisper pipeline for that, I found that I couldn't. There was a PR for Whisper support for the older module, but for the newer one, I can't figure out how to get it to issue a request with multipart/form-data support. I've noted the issue in the PR.

Falafel made with canned chickpeas, onion, bread crumbs, herbs and spices; simply delicious, restaurant-quality, falafel in just 30 minutes.

FYI: You can freeze soaked chickpeas so that you have always the right amount of soaked chickpeas for falafel without having to prep everything the day before. You only have to put the frozen chickpeas into warm water for 2 minutes to defrost them.

• He likes whiteside router bits better than bosch

• 1/8" and 3/8" roundover bits - If roundover is deep, you put a profile on the edge

• The bigger the bit, the slower the speed of the router

• Make a L with your right hand palm down and thumb down. The pointer finger points in the direction to move the router -> clockwise inside, counterclockwise outer.

• Depth of cut should be no deeper than width of bit (1/4" straight bits)

• Dovetail tracks on the workbench??

• Flat side of base against fence

• Tiny router table

I have been wanting to post about this DIY for FORRRREVVVVVERRRRR…but life happens and I could never bribe Jeff enough to get him to write down the tutorial for this amazing PLYO BOX!…u…

Here is my favorite carrot cake recipe. It's simple, sweet, moist, flavorful, and topped with cream cheese frosting!

NOTES

Maybe too much cardamon? Don't add more!
Frosting weigh and then sift sugar

• Did 1 1/2 packages of cream cheese and 400g sugar.

A manifesto on work, waste, cost and value.

Work in progress has zero value. Ship!

• Before a task is shipped it provides zero value.
• Any work in progress is pure cost.
• Two tasks in progress adds cost, for no value.
• Only after shipping do you create value. Always ship.
• One task shipped is infinitely better than 4 tasks “almost done”.
• Ship something of value first. Then begin something new.

I built this guide because I could never quite wrap my head around Makefiles. They seemed awash with hidden rules and esoteric symbols, and asking simple questions didn’t yield simple answers. To solve this, I sat down for several weekends and read everything I could about Makefiles. I've condensed the most critical knowledge into this guide. Each topic has a brief description and a self contained example that you can run yourself.
If you mostly understand Make, consider checking out the Makefile Cookbook, which has a template for medium sized projects with ample comments about what each part of the Makefile is doing.

Make a small kerf with a knife and a chisel, saw in that.

Look up Paul Sellers on YouTube, he has great hand tools videos.

If you're doing this with hand tools don't underestimate the importance of sharp chisels. From your description I don't think they're nearly sharp enough.

Most poker books are outdated in a solver-era of poker, so I was curious to check out Red Chip Poker coach Ross Glover's "Unbeatable Poker," one of the only books that heavily incorporates GTO poker analysis. However, I was disappointed to find that Glover's approach was more noise than strategy. This video explains why Glover's work is a dead-end rabbit hole, using PIOsolver proofs and detailed strategy discussion that you won't find anywhere else.

The video I quote in the beginning can be found here. Uri is an insanely bright grandmaster of many games.

John McPhee -- almost peerless as a prose stylist -- wrote an essay for the New Yorker about his process called "Draft #4." For him, #4 is the draft after the painstaking labor of creation is done, when all that's left is to punch up the language, to replace shopworn words and phrases with stuff that sings.

The way you do it, is "you draw a box not only around any word that does not seem quite right but also around words that fulfill their assignment but seem to present an opportunity." You go looking for le mot juste.

But somehow for McPhee, the dictionary -- the dictionary! -- was the fount of fine prose, the first place he'd go to filch a phrase, to steal fire from the gods.

Take a simple word, like "flash." In all the dictionaries I've ever known, I would have never looked up that word. I'd've had no reason to -- I already knew what it meant. But go look up "flash" in Webster's (the edition I'm using is the 1913).

Zoom NiteWhite Kit, Set of 3

Nearly all of the dentists we consulted said that getting custom whitening trays—which are often made of hard plastic and molded to the shape of your teeth—from your dentist is the way to go.

Just fill your tray with gel from the syringe and wear it for up to four hours a day. Philips promises results in two weeks.

Back in 2010 a friend of mine helped me convert my 8 player octagon into a round cushioned rail table. I figured I'd re-post the info and pictures here in...

If you're using a web font, you're bound to see a flash of unstyled text (or FOUC), between the initial render of your websafe font and the webfont that you've chosen. This usually results in a jarring shift in layout, due to sizing discrepancies between the two fonts. To minimize this discrepancy, you can try to match the fallback font and the intended webfont’s x-heights and widths [1]. This tool helps you do exactly that.

Hi everyone, this video was created with 2p2 in mind. I was glad to be part of the Concept of the week and I'm honoured to head this discussion for the forum that has helped me so much. I'm just glad to return the favour.

This video contains card cheating methods and ways to avoid being cheated in card games. Don't bother trying any of the methods as you will be caught, I promise. It's a lot more difficult that it looks :p

My apologies if the video gets cut off right at the end. 'The Deal' section states that you should always listen for bottom and 2nd deals, use a propor poker table and always be vigilant. Enjoy!
