Sometimes it is nice to have a separate application for notes compared to the editor being used for code. It means they can be customized for their individual purposes. Sometimes there are minor inconveniences (I miss multi-select/chan

FWIW re: performance, I love Obsidian, but performance is it's one main downside for me. I could care less about the real-time collaboration (they are my notes, not for team consumption, I'll share a file somewhere else for that)

My understanding, the SVGs were imported directly and embedded as code, not as a `src` for an img tag. This is very common, it's a subjectively better (albeit with good security practices) way to render SVGs as it provides the ability

If I can run my own code but in your context, I can pull in malicious scripts. With those (all these are "possible" but not always, as usual, it depends, and random off the top of my head): - I can redirect you to sites I control

I suspect I'm preaching to the choir, but that is a communication issue and a sign the "rewards system" is out of whack, not a "reason" not to push for regular maintenance/tech debt/bug cleanup work. It sh

In the spirit of that exercise, the fixes should not take an excessive amount of time to review. If they are, it's likely either the scope of the fix is too large for that kind of exercise, or the PR review process is too in-depth. I w

Not invalidating your viewpoint and I'd bet we are pretty well aligned, I too have a pretty local-first view and that as a country we put too much emphasis, energy, and discussion on national politics and could all benefit from "g

If there is any reason for the test, it would be diagnostic and not preventative, and that is generally covered. Just checking cause you want to know your levels generally wouldn't be, but there are any number of symptoms that could be

Generally agree, but unlike water-soluable vitamins, vitamin D can store excess in fatty tissue and the liver, and so if a person takes a large dose (generally 10,000 IU daily or more), they could develop toxicity over time due to the build

As has been commented elsewhere, everyone absorbs vitamin D differently, this really is a matter where someone should just get tested, if they (and their doctor) decide supplementation is needed, do so, test again, and adjust dosage accordi

Echo this with a PSA: it's a simple test to get your levels, and I'm a proponent of ensuring it's included when you have other regular blood tests (may have to ask for it). That can allow a person to see patterns, how effecti

Just my results (n=1) and I don't think this is exactly what you were saying, but just in case other read it the same way I did at first: having had (lab tested) vitamin D deficiencies, vitamin D supplementation can help to restore lev

I call BS on that given how many people ONLY read the headline. It is (well, should be) the responsibility of the journalism industry, of which the editors are still a part of, to accurately convey information, and that includes in the part

I haven't seen this mentioned, but I immediately thought this could be a great tool for folks with ADHD. The potential for seeing what kinds of things regularly trigger distraction (I know, everything, right?) and any patterns that exi

There really isn't a reason that the screen data, once you have it, can't be used for more than one thing. I would guess that there isn't a whole lot stopping Windows Recall from doing very similar things.

This was my question also, I think "even better if it can record and analyze the entire multi-monitor desktop surface" would be the best option. I don't know what the impact of that would be on both recording size and AI proc

You are referencing your own personal experience, and while that is an entirely valid opinion for you to have personally about your usage, it's not possible to extrapolate that across an entire population of people. Whether or not you&

There is always a "better mousetrap", and there are those that continue to use the old one because they "know how it works and it's set up just the way I like it". And there are others that try every new mousetrap t

Yup, I even found myself a bit hopeful that maybe it was a follow-up or new study and we'd get either more or at least different information. But that bit of hope is also an example of my bias/sympathy to that idea that it might b

This is a bad and sloppy regurgitation of a previous (and more original) source[1] and the headline and article explicitly ignore the paper authors' plea[2] to avoid using the paper to try to draw the exact conclusions this article say

The point is, you don't need to play with extra features and customizations if you don't want to, so you can keep it "a step above a text file". That said, having those additional features is nice when you want just a li

FWIW, most browsers by default now do a viewport zoom with Ctrl/Cmd-+ rather than a font-scaling zoom. I think browsers generally have the option to change that, so if you prefer the former but it's doing the latter, may check the

Both of these are basically strawman arguments - there are legitimate, non-tribal reasons to be against the actions taken re: tariffs and the purported anti-corruption tasks. For example, a person can be strongly against government corrupti
