Hi Peter, thank you for doing this! I am currently on an F-1 visa, waiting to switch to H-1B in January. I have a previous J-1 visa so I'm currently in the process of waiving the two-year-rule. When the waiver is approved, can I file a

Honestly I prefer this format much more. Basic HTML is better wherever I can find it.

I thought it was for automatically turning itself off if it sees a human in its path. Reality is more fun in this case. :)

I wonder if this is a continuous effect that eventually fades away, or a one-time permanent “debuff”. Did you have to practice a lot to get back to your level, or did it resolve by itself?

The name of the developer sounded familiar, so I looked him up — turns out he’s the developer of Apollo, likely the best reddit iOS client.

If my visibility is impaired for the reasons you mention, then I’m sure I’m not seeing the “arrow” either. Blinking light comes before shape recognition in the visual hierarchy.

I'm wondering if the issue is similar to having GPS and never having to learn the streets of the city you live in. If you can simply type the name of the file you need into the Start menu/Spotlight, why bother going through folder

The image in the first link points out that there is a literal rifle on the wall in Shaun of the Dead. That's a pretty cool reference to the origin of Chekhov's gun.

I didn’t know where the term “gold standard” came from up until a couple of years ago. I thought it simply meant top standard (and there would be a silver standard, bronze standard, etc)

It wouldn't be a SMB speedrun video if it didn't have the bus analogy. Jokes aside, Summoning Salt is a great Youtube channel, and it makes me feel emotionally invested in speedruns of games I've never heard of before. Great
