You can unmark the habit as completed, but you don't interact with "the big checkbox" to do that. Shortly after you interact with the satisfying checkbox described in the article, it disappears to show you a visual representa

It's exactly the right amount of big and flashy for a once-a-day interaction that's supposed to motivate and reward you to do a difficult IRL thing, just so you can come check the checkbox and release a bit of happy reward chemica

As a user of this app, I disagree. During app onboarding, you _create_ the unchecked checkbox by typing the name yourself. And usually you're only building a single habit at a time, so you already know what the text will be before you

Some do. I just started going back to school and I’m working on a B.S. In Software Development at Western Governors University. They’re accredited and online only. They also offer a B.S. in Computer Science.

I disagree. For example when we build software, if we choose to build upon third party software with a regular release schedule, we often have the choice of upgrading to an LTS release or the latest stable. The LTS doesn’t have all the new

That $212 million was starkly contrasted by the next point in the article, that Warehouse workers typically make $15/hr. It would take about 7,000 years working that wage (full-time) to make the same $212,000,000. It's still a _hu

I bought a mechanical keyboard with clicky blue switches and brought it to work at my open office company. Very quickly my coworkers encouraged me to buy one with silent clear switches. I now own two. The clicky one stays at home.

No, it’s a colloquialism that refers to sedans as large as a boat. Of course boats come in all sizes, but it’s usually referring to something the size of, say, a present-day Chrysler 300 or larger. A truly full-size four-door sedan. Also kn

At that budget you’d be better served getting a cheap lighting kit and a small to help push your webcam to its limits. Mount the webcam at eye level, pick a classic portrait lighting setup, and make every pixel work for you. https:/&#
