I have a second phone. I use it for my family, close friends, and my sanity to keep my smart phone at bay. It is inexpensive and can be extremely useful. In this podcast, I discuss "Why," "Benefits," "Drawbacks," and "Rules" that I have in place. If you are looking for a way to get away from the daily rigors of smartphone use, this may be your episode.
Civilization VI, released in 2016, was a further evolution of the franchise that added interesting new features. We introduce it in this episode. Civilization VI Released in 2016, Civ VI is probably still the most played version of the game. Although there has been a general gap of 5-6 years between versions, the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic slowed down many things. Since early 2025 we have had Civilization VII come out, but in my opinion it is still being tweaked and refined. In the meantime, Civilization VI is the game I play now when I play Civ. I’ve played all of them from the first, a

Introduction 01 This is the first episode in an 8 part series. 02 This series is on programmable logic controllers, or PLCs as they are commonly known. What is a PLC you ask? In short, it is a general purpose programmable industrial control device. They are used all through industry in factories, utilities, and anywhere industrial machines need to be controlled. 03 They are a fully integrated system of hardware, software, and development environment tailored specifically for automatic industrial equipment. It is probably easiest to describe them by first giving a bit of historical background a
This series is dedicated to exploring little-known—and occasionally useful—trinkets lurking in the dusty corners of UNIX-like operating systems. Arithmetic is something that one would normally expect computers to be able to do. With UNIX, one could of course always write a program to perform a calculation, but for people like me who are bad at programming, it would be nice to have a tool that makes things a bit easier. First Edition UNIX in 1971 included such a tool, called dc , which stands for "desk calculator" 1 . This utility performed integer arithmetic (though later versions can handle r
