Engineering Hacks for the Non-engineer
Not being an engineer, it isn’t often that I can see a simple solution to an everyday problem through all of the minutiae of life. I often overlook details and make seemingly simple tasks more complicated. As such, I am always on the lookout for ways to simplify life and recently discovered a number of engineering hacks designed to do just that: simplify everyday tasks.
