I signed up almost two years ago. Earlier this year I noticed that I had a karma of 11. I asked a few questions of the regulars about what karma was and how to get it. So I decided to contribute more and see what happened. I posted articl

The Shangri-La Diet has worked wonders for me. I lost 24.5 pounds in 2010. I used oil. It's like instant willpower.

One thing I do to give my little victories more appreciation is set up a reminder for the end of the year whenever I accomplish something. Then it pops up when I'm thinking about new year's resolutions to make me remember some high points o

Good article. This one seems apropo: 60. “Whoever is winning at the moment will always seem to be invincible.” - George Orwell

I've read about people having this ability in the past, but it was usually related to either brain damage or idiot savancy. I think scientists have just starting studying "normal" people with the ability.

Good article although I suspect it leaves out a lot of details about the personal infrastructure of knowledge, influence and help Finkelstein benefited from. From his remarks about Shopify I sort of reinterpreted the idea of passion being

When I'm hanging out on the web I keep a wire book rack with an open book on it right beside my computer. It acts like a third monitor and I find myself reading it as much as I do the other screens.

I kinda like his hacks, but jeez why run if you hate it. Figure something else out. He should hack his goal instead. It seems like he thinks exercise is punishment. At the least, I would recommend he ease into it instead of taking the flage

I repurpose the capslock with autohotkey on start up. I accidentally hit it too often on my laptop. Funny thing is that I'm typing this on a Maylong and it is even quirkier with caps than the iPad.

Yes, and they wait to tell you their arcane rules until after you've typed in the password that you want. So you have to repeat. It's like that teaching method I saw on Fernwood Tonight that simply shocked the learner for a wrong answer.

I think this is great as an option where we can fill in our own threshold. It's another way to play with the feed. I prefer the "newest" setting myself. It's incredibly quick to scan the headlines to see what I'm in the mood for that day. O

I had this delusion that if I flagged an article, someone would come read it and kill it if it was off topic. I like knowing that it is merely a downvote. PG's invisible hand is always working.

Even crowd-sourcing needs judgment on the part of the people using it. I think the show directors were the real problem here. They, metaphorically, panicked like Obama being surrounded by Tea Partiers and caved in to the vocal minority. S
