12 Ways to (Not) Screw Up Your Website

A long time ago, I imagined a nano-electric generator that would pass energy to electrons by harnessing the energy from random movements of molecules. But my career path wasn’t in nanotechnology.
I also imagined with enough of these nano-generators, a refrigerator or air conditioner could also be an electric generator. By extracting a bit of energy from the passing motion of each molecule, it would effectively cool that molecule a bit. Repeat that process with billions of nano-generators and hundreds or thousands of cycles a second.
