Did you settle on some kind of filtering system? Curious as to how people remove fluoride - just realized the other day my current *triple filter** aquasana under sink system doesn’t do it

I really underestimated the program when the hospital asked if we wanted to sign up for a free book program. But my son is now three with a little library made up mostly of these books. He also loves checking the mailbox for a new book! Thi

This may be silly, but I always seem to miss what someone should do to “prepare” if they agree with this level of risk?

Slightly off topic but how did you find a group of people to do this with? I’d love to but I can’t imagine anyone in my social circles/work acquaintances doing this with any book.

Thank you for this. I don’t see many generous readings of Wolframs writings. HN is very dismissive of almost everything of his that ever makes the front page. As someone who doesn’t know enough to really know if he’s right or wrong, it’s ha

I absolutely adore this book and its approach to information theory. I will also note the author made available the (non compilable) latex source [1] of the text for easy searching! [1] http://www.inference.org.uk/mackay&#x2F

Wow! Thank you! It’s an interesting (and expensive!) hobby. I’m not sure how realistic this is, but I always wanted to be able to search for knives “with similar shapes”. Like “knives with fat a belly” or something like that. If there exist

I recently went through this myself after a long time of avoiding it due to the way I grew up (parents always argued severely about money - made me basically ignore it as it caused me extreme stress) I have found the BogleHead guides [1,2]

Andrej’s entire series is by far one of the most useful resources I’ve found. Even as an instructor of these topics myself I learn something new about the material and about how to teach it!

In-line with this discussion, over 80% of my open tabs are HN links. I’d like to be able to easily: 1. Archive the link the HN post is pointing to 2. Archive the HN comments Does anyone know of an easy automated way to archive both the HN p

I used to set this manually on Tiddlywiki with a "touched" field. I'm thinking of incorporating this into Obsidian using the templater plugin. I found it very useful to organize research papers like this.

Maybe a silly question but: is this by accident or a dark pattern? I hate it when this happens in the wild, but I never know if I should be suspicious of a dark patter or not.

I’d love to incorporate fzf into a popup-everywhere tool like Alfred! If anyone has done something similar please let me know!

Awesome! Can you recommend some intro resources to help someone get started? What worked for you? What didn’t?

How can one find “our best” estimates” about how locations will respond to climate change ? How can I know where I should be thinking of moving too besides things like stay away from the coasts, etc? I’d like to try and think about where I

This is a huge problem for me as well. If you find something please report back! It would be a huge benefit to me as well!

Michael Nielsen's "Lisp as the Maxwell’s equations of software" [1] was my first exposure to this in python, and I highly recommend it! [1]: https://michaelnielsen.org/ddi/lisp-as-the-maxwells-equation...

I agree! In case you haven't read more Shannon, I *strongly* recommend his (probably) most famous work: "A Mathematical Theory of Communication"[1], where he proposes and solves many of the fundamental problems in information

Jeff (@tangjeff), Im sure you're already familiar with Tiddlywiki[1]. How does this compare/draw from/improve/etc on that? For those who arent familiar with TW, I encourage you to check it out. Its one of the original bi

Tiddlywiki has been my digital brain for 5 years! It’s infinitely hackable and I haven’t found a better system.

100% Agreed! I wonder if anyone has actually made the .tex compile. Last time I tried, I tried to get rid of/define empty versions of missing macros, images, etc. but it was a bit beyond my texing ability. I've always wanted to be

Would you mind saying some more about these topics? Or provide some references? I’d like to learn a bit more on all of these!

I'm extremely impressed with the demo/free tier so far! Out of curiosity, have you tried LiquidText? This is how I envisioned that app working! Also, so far, I can see myself //easily// getting lost in the nest

Thanks for the links! Could you say a bit more about how you use/configure fzf to work in combination with bat and delta?

Linking to a particular hash is a great idea. I encourage you to open a feature request as this could go a ways towards making users with extensions that require that kind of permission feel more secure

Thank you for clarifying - you can disregard my email! I don't think I've ever seen/clicked the More on comments and was unaware of that feature. I appreciate you taking the time to explain!
