I love electric mowers (all of my yard tools are now electric actually) I have an electric push mower for our home - we have probably 1500 sqft of grass currently (including the strip in front of our house that might technically be owned by

Fwiw: I did some searching and pine had the strongest effect on pm2.5 in the study I found. I found the answer moderately useful.

Maybe consider a boxfan+furnace filter for the living room - if air quality is always bad you don't really need the sensor switching

As long as you help staple filters to the wall of my filter shed!

I got a rechargeable battery powered leaf blower last year and love it. Plenty powerful for my needs, and ~10 mins is almost always plenty for all I need to get stuff cleaned up. But i suppose they might temporarily kick up a bunch of dus

Is there anything good samaritan citizens can do locally (on a standard residential lot) to improve the particulate pollution levels outdoors around their house? (and possibly their neighbors' too?). What are the effects of trees/

Agentic uses of GPT can solve the context problem by breaking problems into steps and building prompts to solve those steps. Can't do everything, but GPT+APIs can do a lot.

- Any CEO who would choose to be tripping for a major contract signing is reckless in a way that would manifest itself negatively regardless of availability of psychedelics. - Ketamine is also available for depression treatment in America.

Frankly a pretty dumb article. The effects of psychedelics are fundamentally different from the narcotics most people associate with people being "on drugs". Taking psychedelics occasionally has an effect on the user closer to a

I wish you included a statistic my race and gender effects vs the average user. Got me curious and feeling unresolved.

OK, 10% of actually-active accounts. Reddit certainly has a huge number of zombie accounts - I think I have 3.

I would estimate 10+% of reddit has deleted their accounts, but most importantly, that 10% skews significantly toward 'power user'. Quality of content is already dropping apparently. Not all investors will recognize that nuance, b

Its pretty funny that Huffman did all this to try to juice IPO price by ~10% and probably will end up dropping IPO price by 40% vs if he had done nothing. I wonder what shareholders think of his 'leadership'.

How many years should we spend on this 'find the root cause' exercise without acting to intervene?

It's open source and user growth has recently exploded. It's going to be changing rapidly in the coming months.

Saudi Arabia isn't shipping the water around the world, they are growing water-intensive agricultural products in arizona, and shipping those products. Which is kind of wild, but less wild then how I parsed your comment before noticing

With users growing 6x in a week, I imagine we'll start seeing a proliferation of clients in the coming months.

If bitcoin proves a reliable leading indicator for the broad stock market, trad-fi bros are going to be so mad.

Reddit official app and new website both suck, majority of my friends use reddit, but none of them use official clients - all third party apps or old.reddit.

This model makes every user moderate their own follow list: if you're transitively pushing spam/hatespeech/garbage to the people who follow you, they will unfollow you or be at risk of pushing the same to their followers. Up

Yeah, my goal for this would be to develop an open protocol (similarish to email) that can solve reddit-like use cases. I think something along these lines could accomplish both lowest common denominator and specialized use cases (perhaps

Posted this a while back, but maybe someone will want to pick this up and run with it now: I specced out a decentralized spam-resistant reddit alternative a while ago, and posted it here a few months ago. Please build this, happy to sign aw

Reddit literally will not function without the gargantuan amount of mod labor they get for free.

- test login doesn't work - loginless browsing drops user into New which is full of garbage - when I click popular, I still don't see any interesting content. :-| - i think you have a chicken and egg problem. Why pay to post some

The DEA is not a good source of legal advice. It is legal to grow Papaver somniferum in the United States for garden and seed production purposes.
