This is generally pretty good advice, but do not reload the page. If you reload or navigate away, you will lose the changes you made to the code and will have to do it again.

I, too, have had floaters for several years. I've learned that the best way to deal with them is to simply forget that they exist. As long as I don't think about them, I don't notice them. This probably won't be easy for you at first, but in a few weeks/months you may not notice them at all.

The Arduino language isn't Java at all. It's actually C++ which uses the Wiring library. The Arduino IDE itself is written in Java, but that's irrelevant.

Vote: TI Basic

This seems like it would be good for interfacing with an ATmega. Has anyone used one of these for a project that has both a Pi and an Arduino?

As a former Paint.NET user, it's great for those who need more power than MS Paint but don't want to spend time to learn something more complicated, like GIMP. That being said, GIMP is more powerful than Paint.NET, and chances are that you will eventually need to upgrade when you start hitting Paint.NET's limits.

If I reset Cookie Clicker now, I would get 2160 heavenly chips. I have 1338 right now (tried to aim for 1337 but reset with just a few too many cookies).

I have 4 pinned tabs open all the time: Facebook, Gmail, Google Calendar, and Feedly. I now also keep Cookie Clicker open 24/7, but not as a pinned tab because it updates the title every few seconds (and would therefore make the tab blink constantly).

It should be mentioned that this technique also allows you to close multiple tabs at once, even if they're not organized in such a way that you can use the "Close tabs to the right" context menu option. Just Ctrl+click the tabs you want to close and use the Ctrl+W keyboard shortcut to close them.

You should check out Launchpage. It's an aesthetic app launcher for the new tab page. It supports custom backgrounds, a modular color scheme that changes based on your background, and adding other pages to your home screen. It's also super fast, loading in milliseconds unlike other new tab page extensions. You can try…

I made a new tab page extension called Launchpage that lets you change the background: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detai…

The still-amazing game Exile: Escape from the Pit (1995)

Before my old elementary school was demolished a few years ago, I made sure to get one of the old-fashioned PA speakers. It looks to me like it was handmade, albeit with a faux wood veneer. The speaker inside is really old, but it seems to be decent quality. I would roughly estimate it to be from the 1940s or 50s,…

That's right. jsTIfied (running from a computer) takes a ROM and uses steganography to convert it into a JPEG. Then, you email it to yourself (or get it on your iPhone some other way), save it to your Photos app, and upload it to jsTIfied, which decodes the JPEG and runs the ROM. See…

I use Ubuntu as my main computer, and I can say that probably 90% of the programs that I have installed work perfectly on Ubuntu. Some of them even work better than their Windows counterparts. The other 10% either have a minor flaw or two, but only a few just plain don't work. Quite a few of my programs are ported…
