I highly recommend Hungry Ghosts for anyone that wants to understand addiction (it’s an escape from pain that probably started in childhood ). You could also go straight to The Myth of Normal which has some of this information from his othe

To what extent can I run kubernetes locally with this tool? I don’t need many k8s features and existing local k8s solutions always have a noticeable CPU usage. The docs don’t clearly communicate things like this. There are some projects tha

yes, but people can struggle to be able to rest a much thinner and perfectly straight bar in that positioning though, so I can see how it would be unbearable for the professor that is older and looks very thin.

Your technique is leveraging the same principle as the tumpline: putting the load mostly directly over the spine. Although I have no doubt this technique is working well for you, there are other factors making the approach in this article b

I am loving using coda.io for small data. It's easy to create tables that reference each other. Tables are part of a document and you can write text and make them a little bit interactive with slider controls, etc.

This is just cobalt and not all the other resources required for electrification. The dramatic increase in cobalt supply seems to be mostly a side effect of increased mining for other minerals that are still in greater demand (Nickel). Othe

EcoHealth Alliance is the organization that was heavily involved in gain of function research. Interpid 'virus hunter' is a nice way of saying: lobbying for taxpayer money and using it to do dangerous research with little upside b

Price didn't believe that carbs or grains caused tooth decay: he prescribed freshly ground grains for the diet. Price's book is compelling evidence that something in modern societies causes tooth decay, which is unnatural. Price&#

It's a single core benchmark, so not surprising. The single core performance has always been a lot better on the iPhones, and you can't fix this in software. You can produce a multi-core benchmark that makes an Android look just a

Working from home means a private office- an invaluable potentially distraction free environment for a programmer. And during meetings, a private conversation if needed without having to find a meeting room (that’s likely mostly glass). I a

This might give you some idea, but you basically just want to reload your top level module and ghci will automatically reload any dependent modules. https://chrisdone.com/posts/ghci-reload/ It’s not really a mix,

Haskell is one of the few languages that can compile slower than rust. But they have a REPL GHCI that can be used to fairly quickly reload code changes. I wish there were some efforts at dramatically different approaches like this because t

You can also use NextDNS to block it at the DNS level and point all your computers and phones to that one resolver. I do want to watch some YouTube videos, so I use the scheduling feature in NextDNS to cutoff YouTube before bedtime.

This unfortunately makes sense because it is a private repo. Even if a repo is labeled as being MIT and has an MIT license in it, it still may contain other code of a different license. Github could do better by warning the repo owner when

Asking these questions means you are on track to being a great parent. Otherwise you will just end of parenting the way your parents and society parented you- but you can probably do better in some way. It was eye-opening to see the differe

Maybe you could use the technique of maintaining a separate adjacency list column and materializing the ordering list. It would be a simplified version of what is done for hierarchy to materialize a nested set: https://www.sqlser

This may ring true in part due to survivorship bias. The quick hacky approach can potentially produce a lot more code than the perfected implementation. If both are actually equally likely to be used in the future there are a lot more survi

The last paragraph of this article explains that the rest of the article is kind of FUD or at least something to try to understand about why one county is taking a different interpretation than the rest. > This interpretation of the law

There is an umentioned security aspect that you should be aware of for adopting timestamp-based ids: you are leaking information about time, and this information could be sensitive. This is how I would summarize a security perspective.

Haskell tooling went from awful to best in class after stack came out. Look for “Quick stack method” in the installing page- It should be easy to build from source now with just a few commands. No doubt will take a long time to compile all

This looks neat, how do I try it out? Semgrep is nice for simple modifications but poor at multi line. Comby works well a lot of the time but I really need something more sophisticated. More sophisticated often means language specific but I

That’s often pragmatic if you have 3-4 commands. But when you have more eventually you’ll end up with a cluttered Makefile and a poor command runner. just -l shows all the tasks available. Just commands take cli arguments instead of being f

But a randomly generated 9 character password is still stronger. There is a big over-confidence in pass phrases. As pointed out by other comments there is a predictible ordering to words in a passphrase. If you slip up like the parent comme

How many words is that passphrase actually choosing from? Maybe 200? Three of them are "and", "the" and "I" which would probably be among the top 10 words used in a pass phrase. In practice, pass phrases probab

My preferred mode of work is to spread information asynchronously but to discuss it synchronously. Remote work has finally made it possible for me to be better at synchronous collaboration with others (edit: changed from "pair program&
