Yeah, the first two nights I woke up decently alert a couple times which I took to be my body telling me that something might be wrong and I should check it out. I never felt a sense of uncomfortableness, it felt almost comfortable for me a

My theory on the way this will progress is the skills of being an editor will become even more valuable than today. For article writing, or non-fiction book writing even, step one is finding the data, making connections, and planning out th

I can see how it can cause some anxiety. I suppose I was lucky that it didn't for me. The first two nights I work up in the middle a couple times, decently alert, and could tell my body was trying to say something might be wrong. I was

+2 for taping mouth shut. I read the book a week ago, said, why not. Instant improvement. Before, I'd have to wake up to go to the bathroom every night for the past 10 years, and when I woke up I'd have this eye pain every day lea

Notepad works too! I think the key is to force yourself to actively think when reading, and if you don't want to do that, then don't bother reading. Obsidian helps because of the ease to linking other notes, and that I think it a

I've made a change recently, where if there's a blog post, web article, magazine articles, or even watch a video, I need to take notes on it. Obsidian is great for that, where I can put a link in, and it pops out a page for me to

Meta comment, but I'm curious about the money range of $200-$1000. Many threads like this are for cheaper products (granted, upper limit here of $200 is higher than usual), and a lot of the answers are repeated. I feel it's hard t

I cannot suggest enough that everyone should get a high lux light. I'm in the north midwest of the US, where there's little sun, it's cold which makes being outside much more difficult, and even when I am it's cloudy. L

Pitching wedges were originally 48, now they're in the 46-47 range. Tour players have very different lofts depending on type of iron and ball flight. For normal players though, companies like to deloft the irons to 1) make them go furt

This comment is getting downvotes and given my experience playing D1 college, getting a STEM degree, this scenario is in no way possible. Stanford on its own is one of the top golf programs in the country. Its practice facility is absurdly

For people reading these comments, Dubliners is amazing short story collection, on a level of its own. The Penguin Classic printing of it is what I have, and it's ideal because it has 76 pages of notes for all of the stories. Those cov

I was going to put this one. I'm a fan of Reply All, but this was an episode that was so good it almost didn't seem real. Low spoilers, but they downplayed the ending so much that even without it, it'd have been a really good

Nah depends on what fever means. I got my flu shot this year, and I didn't have a fever, but felt like garbage for a day and a half where it was a struggle to have energy to do much of anything. Fever != feeling crappy.

One thing not mentioned that I'd like to add is avoid using pronouns when you can. Like he, she, it, them, this, that. As soon as you have multiple nouns in when explaining something, you can get screwed. I find myself typing pronouns

There's always talk about the format of the 7 day week, about how people want 4 days of work and 3 day weekends. What I haven't seen talked about, and what I'd want to try, is 8 day weeks, with 5 working days and 3 day weeken
