For a second I wanted to argue with your claim that looking up stuff destroys the ability to remember, but then I realized that since Google Maps exists, I can't reliably circle a block without my phone and not get lost in the process.

Imo ChatGPT doesn't need to hold its own, and the fact that it can be mislead is no different to me than the fact that my childhood bully can edit Wikipedia all day long if he wants to. Noone references Wikipedia in research papers, si

Buying a house also has a risk: what if your house gets flooded due to a broken pipe two months after you moved in? What if they tricked you and you learnt late that the communal garbage bins are stored under your kitchen window, and the pr

Rather I think they should release a metal only version. I don't trust plastic to live a long and prosperous life in outside conditions, those are not where plastic shines. As for 3D printing, I guess ABS could work (PLA can melt or be

Okay, but then is Wikipedia no more than a big party trick? It's the most comprehensive knowledge base humankind has ever produced, made in collaboration of phylantropic people around the world. Of course some info is sometimes false,

True! Right now it is like when the camera had been around for a few years: People knew it was revolutionary, they went to the cinema to watch a train arrive and got terrified [1]. But compare that to the billions of camera phones, Marvel m

Joplin as a markdown note taking app was my gateway drug to Obsidian. I used to sync Joplin to just my Dropbox, and it worked well for free on all my devices. Once (and only once) I had a conflict, which from then on I was nervous to get ag

Can confirm (though only anecdotally). I was bullied a lot in middle school. But in high school I got into customizing Sony Ericsson mobiles (changing the font, making custom themes with their SDK), javascript programming (entered a few com

I checked those background colors with this contrast calculator [0] against white: - Contrast of your iPhone: 2.21:1 (#35c759) - Contrast that's "poor": 2.17:1 (#65c466) - Contrast that's "good": 2.93:1 (#3bac3

Not sure if relevant, but for me, when I want to develop quickly and reliably, I go with mySQL, because that's what I know best. Then when I'm motivated, and find a DB that's really interesting, I force myself to use it (like

I guess "portable" can mean many things. A laptop is nice to have while traveling, in the car, on the train, or when I just want to sit on the couch or on the terrace while working on hobby stuff. And a NUC is great when I visit m

Sorry, but after ~8 hours I need to quit now. Got 1600 hrs in Factorio, and ~400 in Cookie Clicker already. Life doesn't wait for me, but good job, community! Farmhand really fits the theme, got me hooked in no time!
