I had the same experience as you, and held off on getting into note taking with Obsidian for quite a while. Eventually someone said to me "Don't worry about workflow at all, just start taking notes with no flow or organization. Yo

This is the best way I've heard it put. The United States was founded to escape rulers who were above the law, and the Constitution was created to protect it. For the justices who claim to be primarily driven by the constitution to mak

I've never been interested in this canvas/corkboard kind of software, and I'd never heard of Kinopio, but it's so nice that I'm trying to come up with a reason to use it.

Data will still be harvested. Logs that indicate when or how it was harvested, where it has been sent, or who has accessed it - those are the things that will be killed.

I think there are actually not that many SMBs that want a tech person who limits their working hours and won't handle problems that come up on evenings, weekends, and holidays. That is, they don't want an IT person who won't

I think your approach is good. There are several ways to make money by independently making software: 1. Charge money for the software 2. Charge money to help people implement/use the software 3. Leverage the experience and credibility

Yes, this is exactly correct. I was very surprised when I learned that this was possible and legal. It happened to a company I worked for, and cost the company quite a bit of money. Since then I have learned much about how unintuitive and c

Most vegans are not militant and hateful as you describe, they are just the most visible ones. Most vegans live regular lives and are friendly to omnivores, and you'd only know they were vegan if you spent some time with them and encou

> When people generally talk about consciousness, they're talking about the phenomenology of awareness in the present moment. It's not really hard to define. People often find this line much harder to draw after they have exper

> And since we as human beings are conscious, it stands to reason that there are probably other living beings (or matter in general) who are not. I'm not following this line of reasoning. It seems be exactly opposite to panpsychism,

I wouldn't expect there to be documented cases yet. The hypothetical case in question is a hacker taking hundreds of millions of dollars, not being caught initially, but then being caught years later. Crypto as a whole is just 15 years

"Online TV" that requires payment in crypto, and doesn't take card... without more info, it's pretty safe to assume that service is not provided legally.

Can you provide a more real-world example? I don't understand what point you are making, if it isn't about making money via cryptocurrency. When you say "bad contracts", I assume you are talking about smart contracts. Is

Yeah, I think stealing that kind of money pretty much guarantees that you'll need to be paranoid for the rest of your life. I wouldn't take that for any amount.

In many cases, I would not say that the subscribers are stupid, but I would say that the company's decision to use the software was stupid. Often (usually?) the decision is made entirely by people who aren't involved in the day-to

> these personal choices are simultaneously being celebrated by nearly every government institution and major corporation in existence This is very incorrect, and an indicator that you should broaden the sources you get information from.

While true, the gap between "we send your data to our datacenters but we don't look at it" to "we look at it a little bit without telling you" is much smaller than "we leave your data on your device alone"

Just remove the images now, until you have real ones. I've seen several blogs/sites of decent quality and technical depth start throwing random semi-related generated images into their articles, and it just makes me immediately wa

Frankly, I think jumping straight to comparing me to rape apologists is a terrible way to respond to this. Don't do that if you want to have constructive discussions.

My favorite feature about Zellij is the ability to have as many floating panes in arbitrary locations as desired. The way it works is that there are 2 "layers" of panes: the normal tiled panes, and a layer of floating panes that e

It's a nice thought, many small bands of people each doing their own thing. But I don't see why people think it would turn out differently than it has turned out before, which is some groups becoming large and powerful enough that

Without making judgement myself, this is exactly what squatters, and those who support them, would consider a success story: 1. The house has wealthy owners who treat it as an investment 2. The house remains empty almost all of the time 3.

Now you have a group (or multiple groups) of people that will use violence to prevent people from doing the things that they feel are wrong. Probably they'll decide on what those things that are worth using violence to prevent are, and

Without looking into the installation script to verify, based on that description, it is only deleting an 'extended attribute' of the AeroSpace app. MacOS adds this attribute automatically to programs downloaded from the web, and

I know what you mean. Unfortunately, it's easy for frank and concise language to be taken the wrong way when in written form (and sometimes even verbal form). I wish I didn't have to make qualifiers about my intent on my internet
