We have a m2 Macbook air 13'' that had some sticky after spill damage from the previous owner, probably some soda or coffee. I don't like crunchy keys that stick down and don't come back up properly so we decided to remove the keys that were damaged, clean them, then reassemble. It was only a few key but we used this as an opportunity to show how to take off all of the types of keys on the keyboard it well worth the repair. It will work for all of m2 macbook airs and macbook pros 13 or 14 inch and 2020 macbook airs with intel (i3, i5) and m1 macbook pro as well as the 2020 macbook pros with intel (i5, i7) with the same keyboard switch design, and it will work similarly with other keyboards you may have to do more digging to how the keys attach to the switch. Cleaning your m2 macbook air keyboard or single keys after a spill could save you the discomfort of crunchy keys and could also save you from having to get a new computer. If you are looking for how to replace apple M12 MacBook Air Keys, this video is for you.

The principle of 8pt Grid is that use multiples of 8 (8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, etc.) to layout, dimensions, padding, and margin of elements.

Back in January, I wrote a blog post about adding JSON-LD to your web pages to make it easier for Google to understand what they were about. The example I used was my ReadABooker site, which encourages people to read more Booker Prize shortlisted novels (and to do so by buying them using my Amazon

Tutorial: Simplify and Optimize Your YAML with YAMLScript - Ingy döt Net, YAML LLC

Nobody likes YAML (or anything for that matter) when its a giant and repetitive mess. Of course, there are already existing technologies like Helm and Kustomize that help provide make YAML nicer for Kubernetes. The new kid on the block is YAMLScript. Being a complete programming language (built over a vast and mature ecosystem) its capabilities are effectively limitless. That said, its primary focus is on refactoring and improving existing and new large YAML configurations. YAMLScript can help you make the most of YAML in any domain; even those that already make great use of Helm and Kustomize. Having been created by an original inventor and current lead maintainer of the YAML data language (Ingy döt Net) you can count on it meshing well with the YAML you already know. In this hands on interactive tutorial, Ingy will teach you how to make the most of YAML and YAMLScript.

Bing spent more time acknowledging and validating people’s feelings. Humans typically responded by sharing a seemingly related experience from their own lives. Basically, the chatbots made the exchange about the person; the humans made it more about themselves.

Chatbots are effective in these situations not because of something they do that we can’t, but because of the mistakes humans make and they avoid. When we see someone is in pain, or when someone we care about shares a problem, we instinctively want to help. We offer advice, suggest solutions and rattle off how we once dealt with something similar.

When people adopt similar strategies, their connections strengthen. Consider “looping for understanding,” a technique in which a listener repeats what someone else says in their own words, then asks if their summary is correct—“Do I have that right?” Chatbots are natural loopers. When humans are taught to do the same, they do a better job of understanding what the other person is feeling and helping them feel heard.

People don't want their problems solved. They just want to be heard. Glad I'm not married to or working with anyone who commented.

The 5-Cut Method for squaring table saw crosscut sled fences is the most common method for making your fence very square to the table saw blade. In fact, it can get as close as one thousandth of an inch (0.001") of accuracy.

The problem is, it's not the easiest process to follow.

I spent a few hours learning everything I could about the 5-cut method and made this simple and foolproof calculator to make the process so much easier.

• I've been using dynaflex 230. It is not immediately paintable though. But I don't have any call backs from it cracking. It handles completely different from any of the fast dry stuff.

• We never have issues with Sherman Williams 950A and the 1050QD. Also, Big Stretch has a huge following. I just haven’t used it myself.

This week I had the privilege of speaking to design students at two universities about my career. Here are some of the things I shared, most of which were answers to their questions.

5. Visual hierarchy is hard.

6. I know of only one way to successfully ship products and that is to ship imperfect products.

10. Creativity is storytelling.

Tell beautiful stories with your work! If you don’t believe you can change the world through design and the stories you tell with it, you’re selling yourself short.

Decades of sitting at  a desk can wreak havoc on your muscles.

And all his desk work, which may appear to be mainly work of the mind—reading and writing—also trains his muscles. Teaches his muscles how to be, or how not to be.

Sitting in a chair, he unconsciously teaches groups of muscles on the front of his body, flexor muscles, to tighten—including upper-body muscles that pull the arms and shoulders forward, such as the biceps and pectorals, and lower-body muscles, at the junction of the pelvis and legs, that pull the hips forward.

The pernicious engagement of those muscles—as well as disengagement of the opposite sets of muscles on the back of the body—helps explain why, after sitting for a while, he feels stiff and starts to ache.

“Left to its own devices, your flexors will tighten up and take you back to the fetal position, whence you came—if you don’t do something about it.”

So, before the sitting starts, Stocking tries to compensate for some of his extensor muscles’ impending deprivations.

The biggest muscle in the butt, the gluteus maximus, is a priority because it is the biggest, thickest, most powerful muscle in the body—and the significance of this muscle would be difficult to overstate.
No other mammal even has a gluteus maximus.

Stocking’s strategies for avoiding gluteal amnesia include the hip thrust. With the lower edges of his shoulder blades pressed against the side of a bench, a bed, or a sofa, and with his feet flat on the floor in front of him, his knees bent and his trunk muscles braced—to keep his spine in neutral position—Stocking extends his hips and contracts his glutes.

Stocking’s favorite exercise for the upper body is the row. His favorite form of the row is the reverse pullup.

Painting a door might seem straightforward, but achieving a professional finish requires careful preparation and the right techniques. Whether you’re refreshing an old door or giving a new one a flawless coat, following these expert steps will ensure a smooth, durable result.

• Drill one 3/16-in. hole in the bottom of the door and two at the top, then turn 4-in. by 1/4-in. lag screws 1-1/2 inch into the door. Spread the sawhorses apart just enough so that the door doesn’t touch either side but rests entirely on the bolts.

• Clean Off Grime Before You Prime

• Fill All Holes, Even Small ones

• Prime the Entire Door Before Painting

• Search for Flaws After Priming

• Sand Between Coats (180 or 220)

• Use a Special Mini Roller (high-density foam)

• Protect Freshly Painted Doors From Sticking (masking tape)

Declan Chidlow takes us on a really interesting tour of the often, under-reported world of print stylesheets, how to use them and also how to debug them.

Physical, absolute units

When we’re writing CSS, we tend to use relative, responsive units such as rem, em, etc, which scale based on user preferences and such.
Sometimes, I find myself forgetting that CSS even has units of standard, absolute measurements, but we have a lovely collection at our disposal. It is worth keeping in mind they aren’t always accurate on screen, but they usually are when physically printed.

Hopping, a plyometric move, has been show to build power which translates to better running at higher speeds.

Six-Week Daily Hopping Program:

Week 1: 5 sets of 10-sec. hopping/50-sec. rest (total hopping: 50 seconds)
Week 2: 6 sets of 10-sec. hopping/40-sec. rest (total hopping: 60 seconds)
Week 3: 8 sets of 10-sec. hopping/30-sec. rest (total hopping: 80 seconds)
Week 4: 10 sets of 10-sec. hopping/20-sec. rest (total hopping: 100 seconds)
Week 5: 15 sets of 10-sec. hopping/10-sec. rest (total hopping: 150 seconds)
Week 6: 15 sets of 10-sec. hopping/10-sec. rest (total hopping: 150 seconds)
