   I wonder if they track Github Status traffic volume as some sort of meta-indicator? Is it even viable? I was futzing around with the description for a PR and hitting save wouldn't update it, yet clicking edit would show the text I expe

   That genuinely sounds like hell - hoping you get a calm environment soon.

   Indeed. I understand it's a multi-faceted issue given the economic development the airport has provided (and continues to provide), but it seems health and wellness externalities were not priced in fully. Now that the airport is built

   Yes, one of the things that blew me away about luxury apartments in NYC is the level of soundproofing - both in the windows as well as the thickness between floors/ceiling (a foot plus, iirc).

   The Atlantic also wrote "Why is the World so Loud?" in 2019, a great read into the psychological effects of noise pollution and the legal means by which people try and fight back. https://www.theatlantic.com/magazi

   They do exist and seem to work reasonably well, from the few I've seen used around my neighborhoods.

   Lots of good advice in this thread. For me: Most mornings I wake up and feel reasonably ok. I've had much darker periods in my past and think I'm in a pretty good place these days. I try not to check my phone right away and instea

    To add to this: if the religiosity of modern Christian denominations is off-putting - I recommend taking a look at Unitarian Universalism. If I _had_ to pick a church to try and attend today that didn't grate with my morals, I'd p

    This has worked for me, but when on a handheld device I'm paranoid of cutting half of my face off or keeping myself in a weird position. I wish it had a two-tone high-contrast filtered version of myself, that I could use merely for pos

    Fair enough. I absolutely agree that having a source of income not controlled by another legal entity is the ideal place to write from, and I look forward to being there myself someday. Wishing you luck with writing in whatever form feels m

    Out of curiosity, why the desire for anonymity - particularly if the subject matter is technical in nature? I imagine it considerably harder (not impossible!) to convert anonymous blog posts into contracts/job leads, compared with some

    This is a cool idea, nice work. I’ve long wanted something like this, but with the option to include long-running terminals sessions as well and my IDE configuration. Something akin to Mac’s Spaces but allowing an instance of an app across

    Author here. In some sense, I agree. The internet has too much incredible stuff on it, more stuff than a hundred human lifetimes would allow for enjoying, much less remembering/understanding/learning. I think I desire these tools

    Yes, very true! Additionally, I’d like to query my friend’s libraries of things they are aware exist, and research experts’ libraries as well.

    Out of curiosity, where'd you get the $20k estimate? Their docs [1] give a $15-75k range, but I haven't contacted either of the two companies actually authorized to do the audits yet and details about the process are a bit scarce.

    I remember doing live A/V broadcast and we had a similar setup for comms for the whole team - a hardware push to talk switch was amazing. Might have to invest in something similar for my home workstation too.
