First heard about this site in a podcast episode of Surprisingly Awesome. A fun podcast that aims to make mundane things (like Adhesives) interesting. Would recommend checking it out!

This is a great tool, just had a look at data science jobs which is what I do, but I gotta say I was pretty disappointed looking at the salaries. I'm in the UK where data science salaries falls between 30-50k. Seeing the job salaries all advertising 100k+ in America for the exact same skillset and same hours really puts value for money into perspective.

Even accounting for healthcare, seems like overseas data scientists are just much better off in all regards.

I might have to start looking for a different career lol

It's a great app I picked up a couple years ago.

Anytime you're online, no matter what you're doing, if you see a story or picture, or comment, or video, or anything else that interests you and you'd like to look at it later or keep it for any reason, you just click the share icon that's on pretty much everything, and it keeps it all in one place organized by folders you label yourself.

Mine are like "helpful", "movies", "things I want to buy", "tech stories", etc. Just whatever articles or videos or links you're interested in or want to keep for whatever reason.

Another thing I like about it is that it strips out ads and popups so you can just see what you want to read or watch.

The basic version is free and is really all you'll probably need.

When I need to glue difficult plastics, or anything else unusual, I'll start by browsing through the McMaster adhesives section. They have filters for materials – including HDPE, polystyrene, PTFE – so it's easy to find a glue that should work. They list brand and model # so I'll track down spec sheets or instructions from the manufacturer, or see if someone's put up a review on YouTube.

I would try e6000. I've used it to glue nylon to steel and whatever's on the back of a mirror. It's pretty goopy; you probably need a groove/recess so it doesn't squish out.

The parts I've used it on were 3d printed, so they had a slight texture which probably helped.
