That is true. But it’s pretty overwhelming for a lot of folks. I was a spacemacs user. I tried to rebuild what I liked about it. It was a lot, and I didn’t quite get it there. I finally found a good compromise though. I started over with th

Writing an album. I had bands in high school and college. Made records, toured a bit. Worked as a recording engineer. I got into software development after I started having kids. But now that they are older, and I’m no longer studying like

Sounds like psychedelics might help.

Wow, I didn't realize this was a common enough problem that someone had to write about it. I don't have any of those issues. I mean, I've had a few times where a call was dropped, but that's really rare. One thing that r

Sure, good points. I don’t mean to portray it as binary. Back in my gigging days, we called it “the perfect buzz”. 1-2 drinks before performing worked well- but more than that did not. I only share so much because for some of us it’s a very

This is interesting to me- I'm curious to hear how people use it. I do one of two things: - search duckduckgo, go to the "videos" tab, then I end up on youtube if that's where the video is. - go to youtube.com, use the s

I think the parent post is making the point that “less is more” here. The app could be used by all sorts of groups.

This is always an interesting app idea to me, but after trying group trips few ways with people, the most successful have been loosely coupled: Pick a geographical location. Pick some dates that overlap. Plan your own trip. Keep things deco

It seems that no matter what ideas I come up with for capturing creative moments, it becomes vastly simpler if I just use pencil and paper. But I have started finding ways to capture with tech in a low-friction way. One of them is using the

Not sure why this was downvoted, besides it being an unpopular perspective. If you’re curious, pay attention to what epidemiologists are saying- they are society’s experts on the topic.

Sorry, I’m not seeing how you figured that. Ok, so 2566 weekly deaths from covid: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#datatracker-home That’s 366 per day currently. The crash stats you linked to say 36,096 deaths

Still a pandemic, not an endemic. No scientific body has declared we have moved past the pandemic. Now our health care systems are at the edge of their breaking point, people disregard spreading it through the community. We’re likely hittin

I tried making a tiny test runner that printed nicely to the console. It’s very basic, but I was surprised at how little code it took: https://github.com/jcpst/neon-johnston/blob/master/test/inde...

I used to feel the same. So when I was looking for some relief and an ergonomic layout, I picked the X-Bows. It has fn keys and was a nice introduction into the non-standard layouts. It made a big difference for me. Then I picked up a keybo

If you’re telling everyone here, I hope your partner feels the same way, and they know you feel this way. If not, I hope you can get over your FOMO, or just keep searching for this imaginary ‘best’ partner that may or may not exist.

Ah ok, thanks. I didn’t think of “home” being a possible principle work location, but of course it is.

Every time I’ve traveled for work, they do not expense the portion where you leave from your home. It’s up to you to get to work. So if you drive, you “leave from the office” (i.e. calc the distance from there), or drive to the airport, and

I have been wearing the F-91 every day for a long time. It’s such a classic piece, and the only digital watch that really appealed to me. I’m quite excited at the idea of taking one my old ones and giving it new functionality.

Integrated into Firefox now. Works similar to how the lockwise app did on iOS.

I second this. I’ve seen great developers with degrees, and awful developers with degrees. And haven’t noticed one more than the other. Just that I’m more surprised when I see an awful dev with a degree, because they had years to study. The

Do you feel grateful that you have built your life in such a way that you think just one or two hours of chores per day is ‘insane’?

First time hearing of it. Will definitely check it out.

Keep trying. I know it’s a struggle. Lots of stuff will not work or last. But once in a while you may get that one tiny little habit to stick, and every little bit helps.
