That boost I just bumped of the water droplets on a leaf reminds me of a technical word pair people often get wrong.

The words describe materials or surfaces that either repel water or absorb moisture and they are respectively hydrophobic and hygroscopic. The mistake you see a lot is "hydroscopic" which isn't a proper technical term.

The difference is that the latter refers to absorbing moisture, not water, and uses a Greek root to say that.

Recently installed a new app and I started getting popups constantly for git asking me to select a username. Finally figured out that if I set the default username for git credential manager for https, this goes away. #TMYK

git config --global credential.https://github.com.username <YOUR_USERNAME>

I try and use game bar to record a clip on my PC, and get this error:

Game BarRecording isn't workingError: 0x82323673. Press the Xbox button or Windows logo key + G for Game Bar

The solution to this problem is to go into windows settings, then gaming, then captures, then check the "record what happened" check box, which enables this capability. Microsoft does not tell you this in the message or in a support article or by documenting this error code in any way, because they hate you. Anyway, hopefully this helps someone. #TMYK!

Office email subject lines are important, and should summarize the email thread topic for quick readability.

- Bad: "Question about this Jira"
- Better: "New desktop packages March 3"
- Best: "Installing this bossware is bollocks, please respond!!"

See? Subtle changes make a world of difference and can help your coworkers find your email needle in a haystack of notifications!

This morning we decided to trace the breakers in the panel at the new (quite old) house to try and figure out which circuit I should tie into for the tech closet while keeping loads in check.

Fun discovery! @Jillianmarisa’s hair dryer uses 600 watts @ medium heat, low speed. But 1200 @ medium heat, high speed. 600 watts for a fan speed increase doesn’t make sense.

So, today I learned fan speed increase also increases the power to the heat. Which makes sense but isn’t necessarily intuitive. #TMYK
