Never interrupt a programmer

I don't think other coworkers understand how complicated and stressful it is to explain what's going on in your head when you don't even understand specific problems when coding. Hence, I don't want anyone to disrupt me. Same thought in comic format:

Do you agree? Let me know in the comments below.

MNT Reform DIY Laptop

Modern laptops have secret schematics, glued-in batteries, and mystery components all over. But Reform is the opposite – it invites both curious makers and privacy aware users to take a look under the hood, customize the documented electronics, and 3D-print their own parts.

A free and open source modular laptop that respects your rights

Customize and repair it yourself with 3D printed and standard parts

Reclaim your privacy and security: No microphone, camera or management engine

Interchangeable and customizable motherboard, slim mechanical keyboard and trackball, each with open firmware

We are currently finishing the limited beta shipment of Reforms to collect feedback from early adopters that will feed into the final design for the campaign model.

Researchers from the University of Tokyo created a “drone dragon” which is able to fly through tight spaces 🐉🐲 | Our audience: #nasa #mavicair #universityofmichigan #djiphantom4 #djiglobal #uav #mavicair #djiinspire1 #quadcopter #spacecamp #drone #robotics #robot #aerialphotography #fpv #drones #skynet #octocopter #djiphantom #arduino #hobbyking #drone #multirotor #dronephotography #sparkfun #tesla #raspberrypi #mavicpro #tokyodisneyland (at University of Tokyo)

A controllable prosthetic hand using electromyography to detect the gestures and muscle activities. The project is aimed to be affordable, upgradable, repairable, and flexible. To make it affordable, it consists of 3D printed parts for structure and only common electronic parts are being used. The hand is controlled through EMG signals read by muscle activities on upper forearm. These EMG signals are then transmitted via Bluetooth to Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi then processes these signals and move servo motors accordingly. The project is still in early state with many areas could be improved.

Stop perpetuating the idea that avoiding eye contact = lying. Some of us are just autistic and shouldn't have to force ourselves to make eye contact just to avoid being called liars.

Same goes for fidgeting. It doesn't necessarily mean someone's lying or nervous. It could just be the result of neurodivergence.
