Because when you wait a little bit and work on something else for a while, original requirements will change and you don't need to refactor at all.

I have few questions:
- Is it livable in temperate zone (-20°C in winter)?
- Is that single sheet plastic window? How does it insulate in winter?
- Is it dark inside?
- Can plants survive inside?
- Building codes usually have minimal volume for bedrooms, does it meet those standards/recommendations?
- What's 2x4?
- What's blueboard?
- Post some closeup pictures of doors, windows, top and base from the outside
- How do doors open?
- Why the working table have so massive bottom? Is it just "art"? Seems like it's unnecessarily heavy.
- Wouldn't mass-produced triangles be simpler/cheaper?
Also I just noticed article is from September 2013!Also previous HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6355488

Some time ago in gamedev subredit someone asked for font with ligatures, I made minimal working sfd file (internal format of fontforge) from which you can generate ttf font:

the sfd is at the bottom of the thread (in the middle of thread is how to make custom ligatures). But I agree that FontForge is horrendous (and that comes from someone who made moderately sucessfull (50k downloads) font with it)

I think the fear is that if you can increase block size from 1MB to 4MB, why not 40MB, or 400 GB. At some point someone will ask:
How big should we make the block so that only big banks with specialized hardware can afford to run the bitcoin network.

Instead of measuring soil moisture try:
- measuring air moisture of small upside down cup on top of the soil
- measuring weight of the whole pot
Or don't measure at all and instead use precise amount of water on precise times (RTC module, medical grade piezo-electric pump). My similar project is on hold at 20 or so sketches of various types of water pumps.

Serious question, why are all these fake videos instantly recognizable? Other fake videos too, even long before "the thing" is shown just from the camera movement I know it's fake. They even try to hide it with artificial blur or lowering quality or shaking but the camera movement is still fake.
