FAQ What Kinds of Coffee Subscriptions Are There? AccordionItemContainerButton LargeChevron There are two kinds of coffee subscription providers: roasters and retailers. Roasters are cafés, and small-batch producers who buy raw beans from farmers all over the world and roast them to perfection.

The Uncertain Future of Coding Careers and Why I'm Still Hopeful A friend of mine, bright, driven, and relatively new to programming, asked me a heavy question the other day. “Did I make a mistake?

Wooting was one of the first analog keyboard brands to break into the mainstream.

Later, when it debuted its Lekker Hall effect switch in the Wooting Two, it was one of the first companies to utilize the technology for gaming. Things ramped up in 2020 with the rele
