   It's my understanding that Bluetooth 5.1 fixes the multiple users in car issue, and it only got properly rolled out in the last couple years.

   [citation required] I wonder if there's even any citations that can directly show that a 2024 car is "much" safer than a 2004 car. Without relying on NHTSA's safety rating system, which is an indirect proxy at most (and

   Here's an idea. A recipe is ultimately a checklist. It's essentially a multi-flow checklist with parts that need to be done sequentially and other parts that can be done in parallel. So if we had a checklist format, we could eas

   I relied heavily on extended water fasting (3-7 day fasts). It's both easy and hard, easy in the sense it doesn't take any extra work to lose weight, but hard in terms of dealing with cravings/discomfort.

    IF typically starts at 16/8 but 20/4 or 23/1 (One meal a day) variations seem pretty common too. A 5 hour window is not bad because that still gives room to get in 2 meals.

    Interesting! I wasn't really thinking it was linear, but your example does highlight the fact there's probably a few steady states that the body prefers to operate at.

    guns don't really seem to be much of a deterrent in the US, instead gun crime is way up. and what's worse is it becomes an "arms race" at the individual level. many people end up buying guns because everyone else already

    FYI, the absolute fastest way to lower blood pressure is to lose weight if you are obese. Rule of thumb is that your systolic blood pressure will drop by 1 mmHg per 1 lb of weight loss, eventually slowing down to 1 mmHg per 2 lbs of weight

    I don't know if you already know this, but speed of SSD is dependent on size of SSD and also by how much of the drive is empty. Once it's more than 50% full it starts slowing down. I created a separate partition to deliberately

    I've always thought the headset with Manna giving directions was just a fancy way of working from a checklist/todolist with a bit of context awareness/smarts/and gamification perhaps. We can probably implement a "pe

    I'm rather surprised there hasn't been much discussion on Manna before, such a great novella.

    There is a gravity gradient in the centrifuge, for a 2m tall person, if the radius is only 10m, gravity gradient ranges from 20% to 100% from head to toe, meaning it's quite noticeable. But at 100m radius it's only 2%, and presum

    I'd drop all "you" and also the "AI assistant" parts completely. It's just operating off a corpus after all, that kind of prompting should be completely irrelevant. Also could replace "invisible" wit
