Couple days ago I logged into Facebook for the first time in about 2-3 years because I wanted to download a video that I had saved there. What a hot mess. I needed to reset my password, but the form was seemingly unresponsive. Then suddenly

I can't get ctrl-. to work as you say, but esc-. calls up the last argument of the previous command. It's nice for when it's a long file path because you don't have to type it again.

I first saw Tom Scott on Computerphile. He’s so good at explaining topics with excitement and enthusiasm. It’s amazing he’s been so consistent with a video every week for the last 10 years. Not only “a video”, but videos that go above and b

Not surprised if you're right, but I don't think that heat map takes any sort of timeframe into account, so it's just the history of all users who have recorded walks ever, from what I understand.

I made it a point to walk 3 or more miles every day this year. Haven't missed a day this whole year so far (knock on wood). It's been a great decision, although it is hard to compare it to what I would have felt like if I didn

It's funny because I did the opposite - switched from a Herman Miller Aeron to some crappy chair that looks like a couch - and that has cleared up my pain.

I ended up with pulmonary embolism as a young (early 30s), healthy guy. Still not sure what caused it, but the doctor thought it may be COVID. The strange thing is that I never tested positive or had symptoms, though my spouse had it just b

Any Cancer-related news is exciting, but at the same time, I feel like knowing that I'm at an increased risk will make me obsess over it, and end up being a net-negative for me.
