I've come to love single monitors. It is like a task mode for me where I'm only looking at one thing at a time. I use multiple desktops to quickly change between applications or views. It really removes a lot of the urge of distra

>Meanwhile the people who are picked on do have people doxxing them, emailing them grotesque photos and death threats, showing up at their houses, etc. I would bet a good sum of money that you've never had to deal with any of that.

Interestingly, there is no way to delete hackernews comments or accounts.

It really bothers me that homeowners here have so much influence beyond their property lines. You own a plot of land. If someone is building an apartment not on your plot of land it should be none of your business.

I get where you're coming from but my diet is simple enough at this point that the stuff is isolated. I had sinus headaches for 23 years. I slowly cut out foods over a period of 5 years to find triggers. I eat the same thing everyday n

Unfortunately not everything has been studied. For my case, there are a lot of celiacs that report sinus headaches [1], but I can't find a single paper on it. Is it a real problem? Definitely, I would love to be able to eat whatever. C

Tomatoes yes. Haven't isolated types of cheese but it's good to know. Had some soft brie last week without issue. I keep my diet really simple to not get headaches, so cheese isn't a huge part of my life.

Yea, tomatoes give me sinus headaches too. I don't do broth because of sodium nitrites in the celery have also been a consistent issue. Where does the glutamate come from in broth? I hadn't heard that before.

I've isolated MSG as a cause of sinus headaches for me, along with a handful of other foods. It is in some flavored chips, and the first few times when going back and trying to figure out what caused my headache I was surprised to see

Not sure why you're downvoted. The iPod Touch is a great solution and I've bought one before. I don't love the Apple (walled garden) ecosystem though, which is another reason I'm excited about the Librem 5.

I'm happy about multiple switches. I don't really understand how cell basebands work and if I can trust a software kill. My biggest issue with my phone is cell phone companies selling real time location data, so I will mainly have

Yea, besides the glib answer of me no longer wanting to die because of chronic sinus pain, I do think I'm better off. I was very much living on sugar before. So I'm no longer making my pancreas work overtime. The repeated inflamma

Like the person mentioned in the story with food allergies, I eat the same meal everyday for the same reason. I found a restaurant that will take care of cross contamination, and foods that don't make me feel sick. I'm going to mi

I've also given up sugar (it's been about 2 years). Just wanted to compare results. Hair growth - nothing noticeable. Sleep - still tend to being a night owl. No after-lunch sleepiness - agree on this, I still even eat carbs (no

Yea, sure, you can cherry pick dates. Like if you bought the S&P 500 last September at an all time high. However, it's not about making and losing money when you're hedging against major crashes. It's about it retaining s

I'm not a huge Bitcoin fan, but it has proven flexible in cross border transactions. The network can run out of any country. If the USD goes to zero for some unknown reason, you get out and land in Russia, your USD could be worthless a

This seems much more like an ultra-wealthy individual's means of diversification. Holding 1 million in Bitcoin as an insurance policy is relatively small hedge against the end of the (non-digital?) world. I don't think this move i

I know this is tongue in cheek, but the NSA's mission has to do with foreign interference. They are far less authorized to do anything involving US citizens.

A lot of people have Google / Gmail accounts, with which it integrates very well. Also, most people don't care about ads/tracking, as evidenced by the massive number of people who still have Facebook accounts. It is a leader

Apparently, in the age of the internet your sins follow you forever. Humans are imperfect and do not always make sound decisions or decisions that everyone agrees with. We need to be able to respect this and work together rather than taking

I think your comparison to building gas chambers is hyperbolic and ridiculous.

There are a lot of assemblers, but I've used MASM. It ships with visual studio. I think you can find the actual binary by searching for ml.exe or ml64.exe. Then you just write some MASM code and assemble it. It's less well documen

My best idea is containerized video platforms. A parent can pay for the service or host it themselves. You control who is on it. The place where this breaks down though is not everyone has friends and the world would no longer be the audien

This isn't about shitposting on YouTube videos, this is about pedos time stamping videos of kids in sexualized positions. Mostly in response to this video [1] (with a warning that it's pretty uncomfortable and gross). 1. https:&#

I don't get the performance review thing, do people talk about themselves in the third person? I guess for peer reviews you would have less space if you were reviewing a woman, but it doesn't make sense for talking about yourself.

Thankfully it was posted to HN so I could find it. Google search has a truly become useless for this stuff. It's early in the morning, but I think I'm reading the abstract right. [1] 1. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#x2F

I don't like that this conflates bloat with JS. I have a minimal chat application that heavily relies websockets and JS, that said, it strives to be data minimal. The heaviest part is the initial load of emoji images which get cached.

I lived in NJ / NY for a few years during school. It's diverse but people also want to know what group you belong to. Are you Polish? Are you Italian? To be honest, I don't really know. I'm beach people. As a side note,
