The main takeaway for me is don't get into long coding sessions. Test often.

Hmm...I got kicked off my parent's health insurance after graduation, but I'm still under 26. Would this bill allow me to get back on my parent's insurance or is strictly for children still on their parent's insurance?

And there's also Top Dog if you're looking for a quick bite to eat. It's right across the street (on Durant) from the Asian Ghetto. They sell really good gourmet sausages for about $2.75 per.
grizzydot··on Ask HN: Your biggest non-technical hack/discovery
In college my friends and I would go to the driving range a lot. It was a 3 tier range with a golf ball dispenser on each level, all networked together. We figured out (by chance) that if we swiped our range card and then quickly selected the bucket size of range balls, it would dispense the balls before it updated the entire system with the new dollar amount that should be on the card. So we basically got back the cost of the card (~ $20) the day we realized the hack just by swiping over and over (a large bucket was $12). All in all we got around $400 worth of balls before they put in a new payment system.
grizzydot··on Ask HN: How do you wake up?
I've noticed I don't need an alarm to wake up. If I keep my blinds open, the sunlight along w/ any ambient noise always wakes me up after about 7-8 hours of sleep.
