   I wonder why asynchronous video communication is not used in professional settings. I am convinced many long emails and probably some Zoom meetings should be replaced with a recorded video or screencast. Videos can be paused or watched at

   I find the best way to overcome this bias, and it's not mentioned in this article, is to put myself in the reverse situation: if the alternative option I'm pondering had always been the default, would I switch to the current optio

    The last hashtag on this one, generated from the verb I used, makes me think there may be a little more than that. It turned out unexpectedly honest: https://imgur.com/a/iQ0QOFO

    I've been through the same cycle for many years (I can even say decades). My recommendation is to seek help from a psychiatrist. You probably have generalized anxiety disorder and it often goes hand in hand with depression. A psychiatr

    I don't understand how MacOS is constently praised for its UI while half the comments here mention a third party app just to make it usable. Maybe it's just me, but I owned a Mac for over 5 years and I could never wrap my head ar

    Chrome prioritizes search suggestions over your history when you type in keywords in the address bar. I find this behavior very annoying since most of the time I perfectly know what website I want to visit. Obviously, Google will always hav
