For me, it was never about what I did see, it was always about what I didn't see. Want to show me extra stuff that you think matches? OK, but FFS let me see the stuff that I have purposefully, manually subscribed to/followed.

One thing I've enjoyed where I am now is that PR comments come in two flavors. The first, actual feedback. The second, borderline pedantic issues that are prefaced with "nit: " in the comment. Nit comments are safely ignored

I can tell that the person doing the rankings doesn't try to bake with these apples, or do anything but eat them out of hand; this is basically Hot or Not but for apples.

I can easily imagine ADHD & Autism being broken out into more specific disorders, because there is very much an overlap. How long that'll take is almost certainly 20 years longer than I think it should.

As someone with a lifetime of fighting with the executive dysfunction end of ADHD, I very much understand what Schopenhauer has saying. I can know what I need to do and have the willpower to do it, but the door to the cupboard where the wil

And when I wanted to rid myself of all things Google, nobody needed to know, I didn't need to rebuild my contacts -- I moved my custom domain to a different provider, done and done. Beyond that, Twitter is rife with spam, scams, and to

Moreso than that, imagine a rubber duck floating in the water: silently looking at you, nodding in understanding.

I used Waze constantly in the DC area, was a godsend. Then I moved to Seattle where apparently comparatively nobody uses it -- without a ton of users, Waze isn't much better than the rest, sadly.

It (and all other GPS apps I've tried) work well enough, until you try to go somewhere you know well and have to turn it off to stop it from trying to reroute you over & over again. If any app would allow me to have some sort of ab

While what they're saying is true, to me it rings just as misguided as not taking pain medicine when you have a broken leg until it has properly set first. Medication for neurological issues isn't and shouldn't be the end-all

Seemed like it to me -- quick way to get me to close the tab and never think about it again.

The language in Microsoft Power Apps is basically the formula language from Excel, with cell references (A1) replaced with properties (TextBox.Text) -- only thing I'm aware of that comes close though.

It's a hard game to pick up now if you don't have experience playing when it was new. There have been so many things about RPGs that have come to be expected: evenly distributed fast travel, objective indicators, a compass, a ques

You mean doing the work _again_. I had all the algorithm stuff down cold out of college and maybe for another 5 years after. Now after 20 years of rarely needing any of it and having it be a web search away when I did, I couldn't come
