The Autodidacts

Exploring the universe from the inside out

Autodidacts.io is the blog of three thing-building, self-educating, voraciously-reading, computer-tinkering, music-playing brothers who hail from Canada’s west coast, where the weather is wet, the post office is open three days a week, and power outages are frequent.

Autodidacticism (also autodidactism) or self-education is the act of teaching oneself about a subject or subjects in which one has had little to no formal education. — Wikipedia

The topics covered here are eclectic — from nerdy commentaries on programming and web development, to philosophical musings on life and happiness, to the occasional primer on DIY neuroscience, and many other things besides.
