Idiot Engineering #2 - Star Trek: The Next Generation
08 August 2015
Idiot Engineering is exceptionally visible in the ships of Star Trek. This
article will focus on Star Trek: The Next Generation, because each of
the series has more than enough engineering failures for one of these
articles. From the many console explosions to frequent warp core breaches,
the engineers of the Enterprise-D made many failures in design and the
writing of emergency procedures. The designers of the Enterprise made many
serious engineering flaws, and this article will investigate those errors
in design.

Review of the Pixels Movie
29 July 2015
I recently went to see Pixels, and I thought it was rather good. Even

below, so read on with caution if you care about that.

Indominus Rex for President
09 July 2015
The Indominus rex is the ultimate president. He is smart. He is willing to
go to any lengths to survive. He will eat the terrorists, and make them
sorry they ever existed. He will eat the stupid pundits. Therefore
Indominus rex for president. Hey, he’s the lesser of 2 evils. This year
vote for the wolf instead of the wolf in sheep’s clothes. Vote for
Indominus rex for president in 2016.

Review of Drake Well
07 July 2015
Drake Well is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I went there
on vacation recently. It is so impressive to see what people in the past
accomplished with nothing more than mechanical systems. From the way they
distributed power to the logistics of the well, it is really impressive. I
highly recommend visiting Drake Well at least once.

Idiot Engineering #1 - Jurassic World
28 June 2015
I just decided to start a series about idiotic engineering in movies. The
first movie I’m going to do is Jurassic World. Which is an
awesome movie, however it is full of idiot engineering. So fair warning
there will be spoilers below, so if you haven’t seen it stop reading
now, or keep reading for a detailed examination of the engineering
failures in Jurassic World, and how they could have been prevented.

A SQLite Tutorial
24 May 2015
This is my in-depth SQLite tutorial for C++. This is the first
tutorial I am doing on this website. It is really difficult to find a good
tutorial for prepared statements with SQLite, and that is what this tutorial
will remedy.
