   This looks great in particular the portals feature is very useful for reading papers. I hope it supports annotations even if just highlighting.

   Greening deserts is not a good solution for climate change. In fact it might worsen climate change due to albedo changes. A nice video about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfo8XHGFAIQ

   I use a generic 10" android tablet, with Zoo for zotero, which syncs my library. And Xodo PDF viewer. That way I can highlight and add notes on the PDF while it's synchronized using webdav. I have tried kindle paperwhite but it j

   My problem is that I can't sleep for a long period straight. The maximum I can sleep is 5 hours, then I wake up fully refreshed. After 12 hours I feel sleepy again and I need a 2 hour nap. I tried to force myself to sleep for a long st

   I've had premium for a while. The music app is really bad. Spotify recommendations are way better.

   No one is assuming anything. That's your email there where you bullied the guy. You could have been nice about it but instead you wanted to intimidate him by threatening to sue him. If you wanna make this right I think you should ackno

    I have a similar experience. I take all the precautions for disabling ads. I opted out from all the targeted ads. And still when my brother visits me, the ads on YouTube change.

    The code is not even that bad. It's a simple script generating a plot. I think it's too much to expect tests and documentation for it.

    I'm surprised when people don't even know more mainstream science YouTubers like vsauce or veritasium. I've asked a class of ~20 college students whether they know vsauce and I was surprised no one knows him.

    Agreed, also R with vim is really a joy to work with (Nvim-R plugin) I can't replicate the experience with any other IDE. For example, I can define my own key bindings to show a certain summary statistic or a custom plot for the variab

    I don't think it's fair to expect to revolutionize the field as a PhD student. The goal of a PhD is to prepare a good researcher, probably more important than producing new knowledge. Most papers are maybe boring and have little n

    Same here, kitty is amazing. It supports ligatures and also BiDi. Both of which alacritty don't support. I wish kitty had sub-pixel rendering though.

    I think it's a valid point for discussion but they deliver the ads through a different mechanism (system notifications). So it's a bit different than replacing the ads of other web pages.

    Same here. I switched from LastPass and I really like the UX more than LastPass. It is less intrusive and feels more polished and snappier.
