It’s great if it’s replacing alcohol. It’s not so great if alcohol usage remains constant.

Much as I love to bash MS, in this instance the M3 MacBook was announced March 4, so it’s not last year’s product.

I think the 10 gallons is probably about right. People start the sink or shower going and then go do something else, wasting much more hot and cold water than necessary.

From what I’ve heard, his understanding is correct. It takes a few seconds from when the unit clicks on until the water gets hot. It’s a longer delay for electric than gas.

It doesn’t seem surprising that state officials with limited budgets would target areas with the lowest property values, because exercising eminent domain gets expensive real quick.

I agree with your point about outrage culture these days. But your language indicates you think it’s a political issue for the left (“woke,” “snowflake”). The fact is that both ends of the political spectrum get way too outraged over things

Yeah I greatly enjoy cold brew too. But it's too easy for people working these stands to just take any old coffee that's cold (or even just "not hot) and call it "cold brew." Far too often people just don't kno

Agreed about the iPad Air. The Pro is really a splurge upgrade over the Air. It's worth it for me personally, because I use it so much for photo editing, but I think for the vast majority of people who are smarter with their money the

I drink only cold brew normally, and I've noticed this as well. It's 50/50 whether you will get actually cold brew at any given coffee shop or just iced hot-brew coffee, which tastes different and has much less caffeine. Cold

The MacBook Air is better for sure, and if you only buy one, buy that one -- full stop. But I use both, every day, at the same time. They are designed to work together. With universal control, my iPad sits next to my screen at work, and I d

For me at least, it's an excellent trade off. I haven't had an iPad with a home button for years, and I can't imagine why I'd want to give up screen real estate or device size for a button. The swipe interface works perf

I bothers me on two levels: (1) it’s a cooler scene when he shoots first. It’s raw and uncompromising and represents what the first two films were before the later films went in a different direction. (2) The idea that the bounty hunter cou

> I don't buy sweet treats since discovering they're actually frozen/thawed. But why, though? Are they less delicious? Less convenient? Obviously not. Do you think the freezing/thawing process destroys the nutrition?

I don't really see the problem with pop rivets in that application. What's the issue?

You're absolutely right IMO. When there is no reason to compromise and compromise can only hurt you, no one compromises and nothing gets done. Earmarks shift those incentives in the right direction, and their cost is a small price to p

Obsidian is very similar and extremely popular right now too.

Yeah, I got excited when I saw this and saw "nvAlt 2" in the title, thinking someone was forking and modernizing it. But this seems to just be a link to the original project.

by D13Fd 2y ago
Note that nvUltra, originally called BitWriter, has been in development for at least 8 years. In that time Bear, Ulysses, and now Obsidian have kind of eaten its lunch (among others). nvUltra has been in private beta for a long while. I&#x2

Exactly this. The Apple Watch got some pushback initially too. I don't think it's over yet. I think the Vision Pro was released a bit too early, though. The current-gen just isn't quite good enough, unlike the very first gen

Google reader was free, popular, and had a great UI. Lots of the best parts of it came from network effects. You don’t really get that from Inoreader, Feedbin, Feedly etc from what I’ve seen in trying them.

Exactly. I get that, supposedly, it wasn’t shut down to make room for other social network features. But whatever the intent was, they shut down a very effective, useful and popular social network feature and didn’t replace it with any work

The site loads quickly. It's fast with few ads. Maybe the date command can do things like calculate the number of business days between two dates, accounting for U.S. holidays, and add or subtract work days excluding U.S. holidays -- I
