CalDigit TS4 Thunderbolt 4 Dock
My thoughts on the CalDigit TS4 Thunderbolt 4 dock
My name is Andy and I make lots of random stuff. Read more about me on the About page.
I've released a tiny little macOS menubar utility I use to quickly swap my SSH config files between different environments or use cases. It's called Sshwitch.
Side note: On this website, I am using the super-cool Input font for this site. If you write code and you want to use it for your code editor, grab it here: https://input.djr.com/
A radnom sampling of tools and resources I find useful. View all resources →
Resources for developers, by developers. The bible of web development documentation.
Minimal CSS framework for semantic HTML. It makes things look great without writing classes.
A small, simple, and ultrafast web framework for the Edges. My go-to for Cloudflare Workers.

“PhET provides fun, free, interactive, research-based science and mathematics simulations. We extensively test and evaluate each simulation to ensure educational effectiveness. These tests include student interviews and observation of simulation use in classrooms. The simulations are written in HTML5 (with some legacy simulations in Java or Flash), and can be run online or downloaded to your computer. All simulations are open source (see our source code). Multiple sponsors support the PhET project, enabling these resources to be free to all students and teachers.“ —PhET About page
(Shouldn’t every single day be Science Friday? Science Friday Monday, Science Friday Tuesday, etc.) “Science Friday is an award-winning producer of high quality, fact-checked, and trustworthy science news and educational programming. For 30 years, we’ve introduced top scientists to public radio listeners, and reminded them how much fun it is to learn something new. But we’re more than just a radio show. We produce a sweeping array of educational and entertaining science experiences through videos, podcasts, digital media, live events, citizen science, K-12 education and professional development, and at-home learning activities for families that directly serve hundreds of thousands of educators, parents, citizen scientists, and lifelong learners every year.” —ScienceFriday.com About page

Technology is super cool and it shouldn't care who makes it that way. Women/Girls in Tech.
The Association for Women in Mathematics sponsors a variety of programs and awards to encourage girls and women in the mathematical sciences.
As a number of the resources I’ve shared here show, this one talks about the history of women in computer science, explores the gender gap in computer science, and roles for women in the industry. It’s a quick and easy ready with plenty of links to more resources.
The world’s largest advocate and catalyst for change for women in engineering and technology.
