Have been drinking it for 25 years. Had a few months without here and there. It's not much different unless your usage has been excessive, which clearly was the case here. Different people have different metabolism of caffeine and diff

I may be too late to get an answer, but are there decent alternatives to upwork? I'm not looking to avoid sharing profit and direct cooperation. I like the idea of it. I'm just looking for something done better.

Why is a good question. But its usually complex enough to discourage chasing answer which is anywhere near the truth. The ultimate answer is the Universe, simplified version takes into account only brains of people who upvoted which is also

Everything ends up in your database as bytes. You can say everything is a number. It's just naming. Whether it's sane to do basic math operations on them is loosely correlated with whether user sees that number as an integer on hi

I agree with that difference but I'm not sure it's fundamental. To me more fundamental is access to information that anybody has above certain age. Yes you still need to know how to interpret it, that's one of the most valuab

Yeah, good old times of 3 TV channels and 2 newspapers which you could come across. The algorithm of giving you what you prefer when there are too many choices is inevitable. Alternative is a bunch of people deciding what it should and shou

It is never the thing fault. But it may be the thing fault given your optimization function. Imagine a kid drowning in front of you (that somewhat happens but on the other side of the world so you can't see directly). You can be unhapp

OK, in too much simplified version: you not being content with the state of things may not necessarily be your fault - it may be the things fault. Of course you can change yourself, all problems are within you, they are created by your opti

There was one really good talk about from black hat or defcon [1] but there's also this [2] which seems more thorough so I'm gonna watch it too later. I happen to have a friend who writes software for simcards so that's what

I mean it sincerely. Are you listening to something else while using a website with sound? I usually just pause the music. If it's some music/podcast isn't it more handy to have a known volume knob on that instead of finding

Why? You have global volume control, music players have it. To me it's the same as asking every website for brightness adjustment bar or font size control.
