Worlds of IF (October 1966)
Terrific design, very powerful, great composition. However I'm left not knowing if this is a montage or an actual scene because the perspective is hard to interpret.

Looks like we are in for a snowy winter (OC) - All For Gardening

I drove around earlier today to look at amps for my new guitar, and this awesome girl (with cute shoes) helped me out. I ended up leaving with a nice $100 used Fender amp a $25 audio cable and a $5 adaptor. She gave me all of it for ~$90 after tax.
I went home and cranked the amp up. Turns out it had a problem with cutting out at higher volumes. Bummer.
So I took it back. The guy I originally bought my Ibanez Gio electric guitar from tested the amp, determined it wasn't something they could easily fix, and so gave me this beast of an amp that was $150 used instead. It's way fancier than the Fender and sounds great.
The girl from earlier also apologized a bunch and ended up chatting with my girlfriend and I for a bit before we left.
So, this is one of those "they earned a customer for life" stories. Every time I've gone there, they've been great and I've left with used gear for like half the sticker price.
It's at 4450 Fremont Ave N, Seattle, WA 98103 if anyone is interested.

I’m personally against hackathons. I believe it gives people bad habits of “complete as fast as possible, don’t care about code quality, and plan and code at the same time” mindset. Most hackathons are heavily influenced by cali tech startups’ “ship fast, fix later” mindset.
That’s why I’m doing research instead. It definitely takes longer, but it gives you ability to plan in advance and write good quality of code.
@grahamperrin @emilianosandri
Oh, please don’t misunderstand me. I shouldn’t have generalized all the hackathons.
I love hackathons like FreeBSD’s. But if you come to my university (uWaterloo), you’ll find something very different. I’m scared of future developers around my age because many of them won’t even know how to write good code. LLM-oriented hackathons are ruining the world, and most people around me join them for job opportunity and not for problem solving. This obviously doesn’t help anyone.
no misunderstanding 
about the FreeBSD hackathons.
The observation about LLM-oriented hackathons is enlightening. Thanks
