On the topic of how our "Activation" pathways (used when we recall information) stay primed for hours after learning. This had me wondering on the power of building a "warm up" exercise when we're trying to solve a

I got early access a few months back, felt like it was 50% furry content. Not that I have any problems with furries, each to their own - rather it's just seemingly pretty niche for a newcomer to get flooded with posts about - perhaps t

I think this is a learnt skill. If you're not constantly engaging with new material, asking questions on what you're reading, learning with intent, then your brain isn't going to evolve from this baseline on its own randomly.

Fair, I have never seen a single jewellery / luxury sponsor (It's more Raycon, Raid shadow legends etc for me), however I wouldn't ever purchase them even if I did. My experience is that most sponsors are overpriced, largely

Seemed like a pretty productive conversation to me. As a non-twitter regular I now know how to make things more bearable in the future thanks to this discussion.

Reading that thread made me realise how low the signal to noise ratio is over on twitter. 90% of the replies scrolling down were rehashed versions of "can't believe they used Google meet"

How so? The idea here is that being successful on any venture is half chance (luck). If you're creating more chances (putting in the work, "being prepared") you're creating more chances.

"Luck favours the prepared" is a saying that's stuck with me

I hope valve doesn't fumble the bag with source 2, and actually makes it a viable competitor in the engine space. My limited exposure to it (via s&box) is extremely positive, the hammer mapping tool is absolutely amazing to work wi

I find YT is only useable via the following combination of extensions these days - Ublock (still works for me, maybe it's a Firefox thing) - News feed eradictor (hides reccomended vids) - Pocket tube (how subscription management shoul

I have a question - what would happen if you were to drop one of these spoons of matter that weigh 5 billion tonnes onto the floor right now, where would it stop?

I'm currently travelling around Asia, simply not going places where there's a non zero risk of being robbed unfortunately isn't an option. The spare phone is a good idea, unless you get patted down I guess

I'm a fan of garden radio for anyone who hasn't used, always fun to tune in to radio stations from other side of the world.

I know this is sarcasm, but is this not similar to what ChatGPT with bing integration was doing? I had limited exposure before it got removed, but it would actually spell out the searches it would do (often more than one) to answer your que

Ate there any plans / usage examples of using this behind a Web app (node/react is my go to stack at the minute). I'm currently using openai whisper rest API, but sporadic latency spikes are a problem.

It's the very definition of user hostility. They are forcing me to install the app for no good reason other than increased engagement. I don't want to use the app and all the rubbish that comes with it, the website has worked fine

Of course Reddit is user hostile. - Can't use web version without getting the mobile version banner forced down your throat every other interaction. - Actively making the non-app version worse than the mobile, for no reason other than
