The Zork Chronicles is a fantastic novel based on the game. It’s hysterical! I hear the publisher is going to release an audio book soon.

Google has proved many times over how willing they are to sacrifice ethics to profits. It surprises me that anyone thought this was a good idea.

This works surprisingly well. At least for Visa. I just initiate the chargeback and they sick their dogs on the vendor.

I work in product now and all my peers have masters degrees (minus me) but the patent (while not necessarily useful) seems to have put me on equal footing.

I have found a software patent to be near equivalent to a masters degree.

As a male, sitting down to pee at home keeps the toilet and floor significantly cleaner. Even with perfect aim, you don’t see the micro droplets until they build up. Cuts cleaning time and frequency

It’s probably more complex than a slow memory leak, but is very reminiscent of one.

I always use https://regex101.com when I write regex. The interface is great and provides instant feedback so you can dial in your expressions quickly. But to answer your question directly, no. I don’t really know it.

I worked in commercial nuclear power for a while, including a stint at three mile island. The regulatory compliance burden alone, from the NRC and DOE, is crippling financially.

Seconded. For me however, its a monthly treatment for an hour in an office run by an anesthesiologist. The difference is night and day compared to any SSRI, SNRI, or TCA I've ever been on. Exempting the 3-4 hours post treatment, no ill

I never got into twitter, but I feel that way about instagram. Took me a while, but carefully following and unfollowing, I have a nice, non-toxic, interesting pastime when I want it. I do occasionally get the random suggestion that is irrel

This is very consistent with what I have read from sports psychologist Craig Manning[1]. So much of performance rests in the mind and of not sabotaging our performance with negative thoughts. [1]( https://thefearlessmind.com/

You may have already done this, but in case if not. The pickup pattern is going to be mostly right in front of the mic, with the best rejection from the rear. Keep in mind the mic will also pick up reflections if there is a wall close behi

Fortunately, I don't feel like whether it is true or not changes any doctrine. I am curious though.

I appreciate the author's ability to use levity without sacrilege. My current resume is 2 pages, and that's a recent adjustment. For the past 20 years or so I've kept it pared down to 1 page. It probably still could be if I r

For ease, you might want a Shure MV7. It's a good directional cardiod with a built in USB interface.[1] Get the mic close, disable auto mic level in zoom, and set the gain on the mic to be loud enough only while youre speaking. [ https

My key take away from that video was moving from goal intentions to implementation intentions. "in situation x, I will do behavior y, to achieve subgoal z" good stuff.

There's also a fake it till you make it aspect. If you're having a crummy day, forcing yourself to smile anyway can help you out of it. Wagging the dog's tail to make it happy so to speak.

I really like this idea. We try to do blameless post mortems at home with the kids and they’re surprisingly effective.
