I wish Obsidian (or an alternative of some sort) could pick up Devonthink's "AI" and work through both my markdown and my PDF files. No task management, planning, etc. Just plain reading, thinking and writing. The quest conti

I've seen a lot of people recommend LocalCDN over Decentraleyes: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/localcdn-fork...

This doesn't work on my Mac. Only Cmd + Shift + Fn + . works. Don't know why, tbh.

Thank you for this. I feel relieved to read two opinions like this in a 15-minute span, the first one being on Reddit. Since the WFH, I've been getting more and more meeting requests, often in the form of a calendar invite coming by ma

Thank you for the movie and the book references. I'm always looking for things like that, to teach myself how to see and look beyond appearances.

This. One of factors allowing the rising of debt, theoretically speaking, is the value of the corresponding asset. When the latter is over-valued, debt follows.

Maybe I'm missing something, but why do you find that rejection normal?

"Talent is everywhere, opportunity is not" [1] I've had countless hours of discussion with a few friends on this. Seems to sum up quite well how I see it. [1] https://ourworldindata.org/talent-is-everywhere-op

A little different experience by my side: I always try to have as little devices as possible. So I often buy smartphones with large (6.4+ inches) screen, to serve as e-reader (among other features). The screen technology might not be the sa

Yes. Inoreader. Tried Feedly, but at that time Inoreader seemed to have most of the features I needed + it was really multi-platforms. I wanted to self-host, but the time committment required for maintenance (not of the service, but with ot

Hey, thank you for the extended review. I agree on all the points you've made. Concerning the microphone, yes it's terrible enough for me to avoid taking my calls with it. So whenever I have a incoming call in the middle of my mus

I've had Sony WH-1000XM2 for two years now. Bought it just before boarding for a 7-hour flight, and it was great. Even after a dozen flights since then, I'd still recommend it anytime. Its noise cancelling is amazing (source: I&#x

"but no chemistry on my side". Seems like you are trying to solve with your head (models & co) what is essentially a heart problem. If you had that chemistry, I think you wouldn't be asking yourself so many (deep?) questi

I wish I could "give you gold" or at least upvote your comment a thousand times!

I think OP was speaking of the userbase + what the users submit. It's the same problem when you want to switch to a "privacy-oriented" chat client. What's the point of being alone to chat, when most of your social networ

A cross-platform note taking app, with the ability to jot down an idea and later associate resources with it (links, media, other notes, etc.). Idea + resources = Project (like an article or a book), and tags can help allocate the same reso

There is a large choice of publication platforms. I'm not tech-savvy enough and mostly don't have enough free time to fiddle with the installation of Ghost, Hugo and Co. But at least I know they exist. For the time being, I'v

It isn't weird;) Wife and I have many conversations about how knowledge absorption is becoming bare media consumption. Listening at her, not as geeky as me, raising her concerns about it, was truly delightful:)

THIS. OMG, if my lifelong quest would end here... Thank you!!! This idea of central topic + attached resources in various formats is what I've been looking for, for ages. I might test it asap, and later see how to adapt my ecosystem (A

Reading, by far. I'm getting sick of every single thing being videofied. It seems like an "attention hack". Wife has been feeling the same too.

I've installed Wireguard on my VPS. All is nice so far. I don't know how secure it is, i-e if people can do a whois on the IP and see my identity (it seems protected by my hoster, though).

This has been and still is one of my main quests, too. I have tried almost everything: Evernote, OneNote, Google Kepp, lastly Wenote (Android), Dokuwiki, etc. Currently I'm jumping between Notion and Telegram (saved messages). I'd

This is great! Could you please provide any instructions on how you achieved it?

Pocket for me too. Wish I could use Notion for this (I use it for many other things), hope they release their Firefox extension soon.

I am in one of the regions where Truecaller is growing rapidly. And I've found out that the best defence is a good offence: registering my number myself but with totally false information seems to supersede what other register about me

I've tried many alternatives to Google Maps, and ultimately came back to it. But for it to be so relevant, I think that a reasonable level of 'tracking', even in real time, is necessary. I am a privacy advocate, always trying
