I am doing something that is similar. But in my case, I maintain the position for 10 seconds. When bending backwards, I try to maintain my head in the same 'vertical position' (if that makes sense to visualize). My physical therap

One issue that can develop over time is cervicogenic headache. This issue strains your muscles that span over your head. This origins from bad posture, typically from a screen-based job. Some exercises that help in these area, according to

I got another perspective. I was/am someone who is labelled as an underperformer by my boss. I work at a electronics production firm, where I did some programming work. During feedback season, I was moved departments. Now I just do sol

The author of Existential Comics offers some advice: https://existentialcomics.com/blog/1/How_to_study_philosophy... I like courses or philosophical works, which focus on a common themes, common threads. That allo

I am sorry. I meant Autism Spectrum Disorder. ASS is the acronym in my native language, I mixed it up.

I was a month ago diagnosed with bipolar type 2, together with ASS. I experience sleep problems. Some feelings in this article are familiar. To me, it was the feeling of being excluded for life from people. Also I am going through work prob

I wonder how prize winners feel about such huge sums of money. Especially that very succesful people who win such prizes tend to win multiple prizes.

Some days ago I saw a video that suggested that subjective time seems to be slower when we are younger because our neurons are firing more actively. As we grow older, they tend to fire less. Anyway, it is just one aspect.

I'm also learning some algebraic geometry at the moment: Some resources I have used are: * video lectures by Richard Borcherds * Lecture notes by Andreas Gathmann ( https://www.mathematik.uni-kl.de/~gathmann/class&#

I'm not an expert and I don't do value judgments, but I think he's talking about something called 'smart contracts'. Haskell would make it easier to verify smart contracts. I thought he was talking about use cases l

The Mont-Pelerin society was established in 1947 by Hayek to promote more liberty with the world elites. There are pictures of him on the first conference with Mises. I'm genuinely curious what relative stability and prosperity you ref

I can confirm. Reading Lucifer was one of the highlights in high school of my Dutch class.

My analogue design engineer colleague still uses this approach. One rationale I have heard him say is that he prefers to do things with transistors instead of logic ICs because of the direct availability of transistors, compared to ICs. It&

I've been following the developments of these ventilators pretty closely, particularly of these using a ventilator for multiple patients. The hard part is not the ventilation mechanism itself, but the specifications. Those ventilators

That last sentence is exactly what I like about Duolingo. 716 day streak here. Without Duolingo, I would not have commited to at least some minutes spending with a foreign language. Now I can at least give directions in French. I managed to

I'm curious what those toxic attitudes are. Surely the "we already invented it and you're reinventing it" can't be the only case. I'm also curious if it's in an academia or in industry.

I think one can experience something related in either writing or even just playing with puppets. J.K. Rowling had to 'program' the rules of her wizarding world, in a way. As a kid, I used to play some kind of civilization and emp

I learned a lot more about op amps, mosfets, SMD technology, bootloaders and PIC microcontrollers. These are fundamentals, so it's an investment with a high return value, I think.

I am starting to use OpenHTF at work. I was not aware of Exclave. Seems like I have interesting homework to do. This blog post by Bunnie was a very nice read.

I can come up with the following possibilities, although I have no experience with either: - Using OWL in Java (with OWL API). So you use Java in combination with XML - Use a Prolog embedding in Haskell.

There's actually a subfield called 'scientific workflow systems' (SWS). An example of such a system is Kepler [1]. What the author(s) ask at the end of the article seems to me basically that they want process provenance. This
