Do you feel like your hip flexors (or quads) are always pretty stiff, even when doing regular, dedicated stretching? What if I told you the culprit may not be your tight muscles at all and no amount of passive lunges and hip stretches would really make a difference?

Whether you're finishing a basement, repairing a damaged wall, or hanging drywall in a new house, these taping tips will help you make smooth, invisible seams, even at inside corners.

Hide butt joints!

Hanging drywall vertically is slower than hanging it horizontally because you have to make sure the tapered edges fall at the centers of the studs.

Use Mesh Tape

But mesh tape has one weakness (literally): It’s not as strong as paper. To compensate, you have to cover it with a setting-type joint compound, which is stronger than a premixed compound.

Setting-Type Compound

Be sure to choose a “lightweight” setting compound. Other versions become so hard that sanding away mistakes is nearly impossible. Even the lightweight versions are harder to sand than the premixed compound, so it’s best to use a setting compound for the first coat and a premixed compound for later coats.

Flatten Bumps and Bulges

If you used a setting-type compound, inspect the joints before the compound has hardened completely. Run a 12-in. wide knife over every joint. The blade will scrape off small ridges and nubs. More important, it will act as a straightedge, revealing larger bumps and bulges. When the compound is about the consistency of a bar of soap, you can easily shave down bulges without gouging. You can sand and scrape the setting compound after it’s completely hard, but that’s more work.

Smooth the Surface With a Knockdown Knife

Then drag the knockdown knife gently over the surface in one continuous pass. Apply light, even pressure and don’t stop or hesitate.
Although the rubber blade is soft, it can still make a mess of partially hardened compounds. Knockdown knives are available in 18 and 22-in. widths at drywall suppliers and some home centers and hardware stores. A 22-in. version is best for butt joints.

In May 2023, Eric Hartford, a machine learning engineer authored a popular blog post “Uncensored Models” providing his viewpoints to the merits of uncensored models, and how they are created. It’s a great read!

Custom Properties have the potential to change how we write and think about CSS.

In most cases, I'd now consider it code smell if a media query or CSS selector swaps one variable for another. Rather than swapping variables it's better to define one variable, set its initial value and change it with a selector or media query.

MDF (medium-density fiberboard) is inexpensive, durable, and a good choice for many woodworking and carpentry projects. Learn how to use it correctly, and how to avoid common mistakes.

• Make Your Own Trim
• Combine MDF With Wood Moldings
• Prepare for a Dust Storm
• Avoid Full Sheets
  Try MDF shelving, usually in 1 x 8-ft. sections. I like to slice these long, easy-to-handle shelves into trim stock.
• Sand, Prime, Sand (Kilz, 100 grit)
• Don’t Let It Get Wet
• Reinforce MDF Shelves
• Don’t Use a Hammer (drill holes first or use a trim nailer)

What good design managers do
A good design manager focuses on 5 key responsibilities to build a healthy and happy team:

1. Ensure a steady stream of challenging and meaningful work for you & your team
2. Show where the quality bar is, by doing exemplary work yourself
3. Protect time and focus of your reports so they can do their best work
4. Communicate timely & clear feedback to every team member
5. Create a personalised growth path for every member in the team

Search engines in general have realized that it's more profitable to show you irrelevant results than to show you nothing. Furthermore, they've realized it's more profitable to show you irrelevant results laden with their ads than show you highly relevant results from ad-free sites.
Perverse incentives at work!

This is precisely what happened. When google merged with doubleclick.net the new company should have been named doubleclick.net and not google. The old google ceased to exist at that point and was swallowed by an advertising company.

For the enterprise, that leaves SUSE. Personally, I think the best thing enterprise environments can look at are firms that provide support for FreeBSD, like Klara Systems. [klarasystems.com] Since they don't make a "distro" and FreeBSD is a full OS controlled by a foundation, your support guys can't pull the rug out from the open source community. Plus, since they don't own the system, their bug fixes go to the foundation, not their fork of it. Allowing the support guys to own the code is a recipe for disaster—they're incentivized to lock you in and implement Oracle-style anti-customer tactics. Unfortunately, the guys who pay the bills tend to like the IBMs and Oracles of the world.

These wonderful little pieces are works that you (probably) have to learn to love, but which can be loved nonetheless -- and it certainly helps that Pollini plays them with intimacy and expressiveness. Though atonal, these pieces are nonetheless thinly swathed in the last vestiges of classical form and harmony: you can glimpse shades of lyrical melody, chordal accompaniments, ABA structure in the first piece, expressive appoggiaturas, pedal tones, and so on. Formally speaking there's a vast (unimaginably vast) number of things that can be said about these three pieces, standing as they are at the very threshold of full-blooded modern serial atonality, but that's not in fact that helpful if you want to just enjoy listening to these. So instead I suggest several ways of listening to these:

1. Three tableaux: a silent evening in a house soon to be demolished, a funeral, a fire swallowing a factory.
2. Five paintings: Picasso's The Blue Room, Francis Bacon's Head I / Böcklin's Isle of the Dead, Munch's The Scream / Kandinsky's Composition VII
3. Three preludes: a nocturne out of late Liszt, a Brahmsian intermezzo/lament, a piece out of Schumann's Kriesleriana.
4. Three myths: Sisyphus, Dante, Zeus and Leda.
5. Music for films from the black-and-white era. Imagine whatever you choose.

Responsive designs being created today have to serve more users on more devices and with more varied abilities and preferences than ever before. And size and spacing of elements can quite literally make or break your layout. In this new world, strict pixel values are so Web 2.0. Let’s review modern CSS techniques for building future-forward flexibility into our layouts and components.
