Utility Software I Depend OnI thought a lot about my first post of 2013. I wanted to start the year with a great post. I considered one on Congress but my efforts would be insignificant compared to the spectacle they’ve already made of themselves. Statistics is always a good topic and the course from …
Encryption and Hacking, A Government Granted Right?Did you heave a huge sigh of relief this year when your personal rights were reaffirmed? Twice in fact, once by the Library of Congress when they issued an opinion that hacking your vehicle’s software was legal and once by the UN when they declared encryption to be a basic personal …
Website Data For My Udacity Statistics CourseA few weeks ago I did a post, “Probability, Statistics and Udacity”. Udacity read the post, tweeted it and posted a link on their site. The increase in traffic to my site was astounding. This provided a whole new audience and a great opportunity to study the statistics generated by …
The UP! Mini 3D Printer, A ReviewI bought the UP! Mini 3D printer from Amazon for $599. I found the sale price too good to pass up. Having had it for almost 48 hours, I don’t have buyer’s remorse but I might do more looking if I had it to do over. While this post is …
How Much Memory Is A Megabyte?I’m constantly amazed when I encounter people who have no idea how to interpret their file sizes.

Hi again Byron, I am the same one who discovered your website today, posting comments online for the first time ever. I’m so glad you’re putting a voice out there for our engineer friends and family. Because if you aren’t an engineer yourself, it’s kind of hard otherwise to understand the parts that are internal thoughts, formulas and just how things make sense. Your articles are a good reminder that we need to keep encouraging kids (boys AND girls) into the engineering fields. Thanks!
Are you a counselor too?
Counselor is one of the few endeavors I’ve never tried. I do enjoy acting as a mentor to younger engineers but that’s an entirely different skill set.
Hello Byron, did you write these stories? Bob Rosas
Yes, I wrote them several years ago. Still writing, hope I’m getting better with each tale.
are you the engineer i met at an electronics store in dallas and later came to work with me making rocket systems ?
it sure sound like you !!!
Yes, that would be me. Or, at least, a much older and not much wiser version of that young engineer.
Hello Byron, The skull project is cool. I saw Phil yesterday. Bob
