I found this article more informative: https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/showering-daily-is-it-ne... Interestingly the harvard article talks about perturbing the microbiome through exposure to the environment to make

I like that "praise the opposite" approach. Usually when things go smoothly, it's really easy for me to just zone out and not pay attention. It certainly seems like it takes deliberate practice to be observant of praiseworthy

They got that from the availability rate, not the vacancy rate. You can see the percentages they list in the article for each town correspond roughly to the "R&D Availability Rates Select Silicon Valley Cities" figure on Page

I like the idea of putting the exercises in and seeing muscle coverage, that's really cool! The biggest hurdle for weightlifting for me is the data entry. I usually just have a set routine I go through, and recording weight and achieve

The Spaces feature reminds me of how Movie Clips were used in the old days of Macromedia Flash, where I'd put many different often-independently-running clips overlayed on top of each other to encapsulate different behavior. Of course

One thing I realize while reading this is that, having recently signed up for a local gym, I'll lose that "alone time in the home gym", where I would often listen to podcasts and watch videos while I lift. Sure, I can get som

You could use your tech skills to do some freelancing a la Upwork, Fiverr, etc. You could look on Cofounderslab for someone looking for a tech cofounder and start a business together. You could go into one of the in-demand job fields such a

Strongly agree. JS and the DOM have come a long way in the last decade or so, and it's refreshing to be able to leverage simple solutions like the one he's suggesting. Not everything needs to start with an all-in-one package that

The gif at the top was very interesting. The shrinking of the North America and Russia were really surprising to me, as I had always looked at them as much more significant land masses. A little off-topic from projections, but I just return

This is really cool, good job on the release! I love how it gives a time and price estimate. I'm currently in the process of building an itinerary for a couple cities overseas, so this will be fun to generate ideas with. It would be a

I didn't see in the article the volume of water it can filter before the sponge is saturated, and the volume of acidic water it takes to then rinse the sponge of the metals. Also, after rinsing, how easy is it to recover the rinsed met

Does anyone know of any modern linux desktop environments that are specifically designed for 1-bit or grayscale? I really like the nice clean look as demonstrated here.

The "M" in the title is black hidden in a black square in my Firefox browser. Not the greatest first impression for a page about css. Looks like a good collection of recipes though.

I once left my kid in a minivan that had both sliding doors open and all windows open. It was in front of a house and I had just gone to the back of the house. Someone called the cops on me and also had the audacity to scold me and my wife.

I'd love to hear an answer to this question from someone in the industry. Could it somehow be added to the Open Banking standards that are becoming widely adopted, or might it be introduced in a similar manner?

On a related note, does anyone know of any algorithms that will automatically edit out non-words, stammering, etc.? When I make audiobooks and such, the editing out of mistakes and other sounds is the majority of my work.

Agreed. The OP mentions not being dependent on the weather, but I find jogging can be done regardless of the weather, it just depends on what clothing you can put on. Also, playgrounds seem to abound here in the U.S., and they're great

Same; I'm not seeing any difference either.

Well, part of it is that PHP was initially one of only a few options, and since then new languages and technologies like Node have appeared and slowly eroded that market share by the simple fact that they are competition. Node became popula

How much damage does it do compared to, say, sitting in the summer sun for 20 minutes? Also makes me curious about those UV teeth-whitening devices and whether there is any similar research for them. I don't know how valid such a conce

Whoa, this is huge! I love the explanation too. The low-diameter decomposition part was very interesting. This is one of the things I love about graph theory- there are so many solved and nearly-solved problems and concepts that might be us

I remember one client saying to me something like "So and so does a lot of X, and such and such is really churning out Y. What exactly would you say your focus is in this project?" At the time I gave a very unsatisfactory answer,

Reminded me of another article I saw on HN recently, where sometimes a lot of the work done by a senior software engineer is "being glue", which is not as recognizable. When it comes time to slice the pie for stamps, a "glue&

What is the name of that genre of manga? I'd be very interested to check it out, but am not sure what to type into the search engine. Any help is appreciated!

Seems to say less about the generation and more about what age the generation currently is. Younger people are of course going to spend less on healthcare and more on alcohol, for instance. If you went back in time to when Millenials/G

The last gov team I was on had trouble with the uswds icon set. There didn't seem to be a way to import them as a font rather than as separate svgs. We noticed though that the icons were roughly based on Material Design icons, so we us

I really enjoyed Ruby Koans. I feel like it gave me a solid feel for the language in a fairly short amount of time. http://rubykoans.com/
