I switched over to Monarch a year or so ago and I've been pretty happy with it. I much prefer a paid product to an ad-driven one. The product isn't perfect, they have some work to do on categorization and de-duplication of recurri

I really hope they make the subscription option available in the US. I'd happily pay $25/mo to opt out of ads on both platforms. I was going to sign up for their "verified" option until I saw that it didn't remove t

I understand that we have to deorbit the ISS at some point, but it's crazy to me that it's cheaper to deorbit all this debris rather than recycle some of it. It's already in orbit. There are "giant steel trusses" -

The confounder for this is that there was a 2 week lag between the hockey game and cases showing up in the emergency room and we basically (outside of China) gave up on doing contact tracing, so nobody knows how people were specifically inf

A friend of mine started a company based entirely on the premise that grind quality matters. They did many blind taste tests and found that they could taste a 50μm difference in grind size when they controlled the other variables. Can you t

It works really well with a PS5 controller, and they make controllers that snap on the sides too.

It's a myth that they pay low taxes in Texas. For most people the taxes are lower in CA (somewhat due to Prop 13).[0] [0] - https://www.foxnews.com/politics/california-taxed-less-texas... [1] - https://

A story an old engineer at Apple told me: When working on MacOS 8.x (not sure which point release), they surveyed users, and their number one complaint was boot time. It took long for the system to boot (around 45s on average at the time).

Instagram lets you create unrelated "subaccounts" that are tied to your main account. I have one just so I can have a public account that I use to follow F1 drivers. This is great because I don't get spoilers on my main Insta

This brings up an old bugbear of mine. The front seat airbag thing is a solvable problem but instead of solving it, we just choose to put kids in the back seat because that's cheaper for the auto manufacturers. This is obviously true s

FedEx is going to scrap all the DC-10s/MD-11s you see in the photos. I always loved those tri-jets (along with the 727) as a kid. [0] - https://theloadstar.com/cost-cutting-fedex-express-to-retire...

GM is probably ignoring that these products exist too. I haven't bought one, but I've been tempted to put one in my 2008 Civic. I'm sure they'll be even better and cheaper in a couple years. https://www.ebay.c

I wear a flomask every day when I'm out and about and it works great. You don't need to wear it "around the clock." You just need to wear it when you're inside and there are people around you who might be infected.
