The problem with this approach is HN, reddit are necessary for work. I search HN all the time for technical info to avoid the blogspam and SEO marketing crap on Google. For me, the key to managing procrastination has been accountability - t

To add another sleep paralysis anecdote, I used to get it and it was always coupled with an extremely loud pulsating ringing kind of noise in my head which would get progressively louder and faster until the moment I woke up, when it would

The comparison between corporations optimising for profit to algorithms optimising for engagement, and the associated mispriced externalities in both cases being similar, is interesting. But otherwise this reads as a cookie-cutter rant abou

Reminds me of this pg classic [1]: > When we say that one kind of work is overpaid and another underpaid, what are we really saying? In a free market, prices are determined by what buyers want. People like baseball more than poetry, so b

I foresee a familiar cycle playing out: 1. Gemini is great, no spam and commercial crap 2. Someone realises it would be great to have simple inline images, and makes a cool client that supports “gemini+img” syntax that they make up. The syn
