You might be on to something with your different ways to focus. I'd love to use a tool (in-browser perhaps? or an app for tablets?) where I could: - load/import reading material from various sources (typically web articles or eboo

I had a hard time being convinced by the usual 2/3-pagers that tell you CBT will change your life and then going straight to "just close your eyes and breathe and focus on your nose". It irks me to be told what to do and not

And therein lies the difficulty of the process: shifting towards objectivity, in a sentient being that is primarily (if not entirely) a subjective experience. I appreciate CBT, but often feel saddened to see that this doesn't get addre

I'm not incredibly knowledgeable about AWS and Docker, but I have a couple questions for you: - How would EC2s compare to Fargate ? I encountered situations where, running the numbers, I much preferred having my own set-up with images

While things like masks and social distancing are more likely to be already in place in Japanese culture, there definitely seems to be a bit of a surprise regarding actual numbers vs. means put in place to prevent the spread. The reports se

That's almost twice the amount of deaths in Canada, which has a population of over 30 million people and is on a relatively tight lockdown (not as intense as some European countries but still well followed). Different folks differen

The person you're replying to still has a point, that you probably reinforced with the example of Macy's: the time constants of a given feedback loop can and do influence greatly the necessary input (the money they saved) to get t

Quebec is often feeling disregarded culturally by the rest of Canada, or just seen as "that one area where people don't speak English" even though it is the most bilingual province of Canada by a decent margin [0]. There&#x27

You get the gist of it if you drop into streetview and move around. [0] Having taken that roundabout in just about every way possible (car, scooter and yes - velib), I can only recommend to anyone on it to have fluid yet determined movement

You might have only been to higher-end restaurants, and not the "good ol' french" types that are as much about the atmosphere as they are about the food. The kind of thing I could only name as "à la bonne franquette&quot

1. While neural network research continues at a somewhat steady pace (slightly increased by the influx of new grads influenced by the last decade's glow around AI), neural nets become very small building blocks for task-design (by that

Sincere question here: what makes you certain that you would have found happiness? I guess the fundamental difference between your way of thinking and most peoples' is that you seem to be absolutely convinced that happiness exists and

You call it rigorous, with a solid underlying conceptual structure, and repeatable results. Is there a gap between that and "being scientific" ? I have no particular feeling about hypnosis and no experience with it, but am a bit c

You're more likely to get somewhere with Kotlin on Android now, although knowing your way around Java constructs will definitely remain useful for a long time.

Look up moclobemide if you are open to trying MAOIs instead of heavy SSRI/SNRI cocktails. IMHO reversible MAOIs are severely underrated.

Have you observed any limitation or problem with it? I've been very interested in transforming our internal Jenkins CI into something lighter and modular with less maintenance which still allows multi-platform slaves, and BuildKite see

Interesting take on things. There's value in thinking about equivalent models that allow potentially entrenched assumptions to be set aside. Worth mentioning that the kilogram has since been defined more robustly than the way mentioned

Not every place seeks the jack-of-all-trades types of people. It isn't necessarily because of any dehumanizing train of thought, but more likely because of a more pragmatic one: they might not have the company structure to support peop

Thanks for sharing. I think I need to organize myself to be able to walk away from google and it's all-encompassing experience and grasp, and it's not always easy to make the first step.

Have you tried redirecting the habit? While changing at the core is ultimately the goal, redirecting actions into a set of more neutral ones might help. For example, having a bracelet that you can play with, or even in some cases pull on t
