Libraries buy ebooks with your property tax dollars. The more patrons read, the more copies they buy. Authors and publishers like this.

Yes, Numbers opens files much faster. Excel’s find, despite years of complaints, continues to not highlight the background color of what you’re looking for. Makes it tough to find what you need in a dense sea of cells.

Thanks, at least you can do it with an Apple Pencil or your finger. Seems like more of a demo than a feature if you can’t do it with typed text too.

In Apple Math Notes, why can't you type a simple list of numbers, either in a table or in columnar format, like: 239.12 +242.33 +673.34 ------- = And get an answer after the equals sign? (a la Soulver) Isn't this an obvious use

Last flat I had, there was a giant Allen wrench stuck in the tire and it was rapidly leaking. Filled it back up as much as I could with the included inflator kit, took it a big box store, they patched it up and was on my way. Took maybe an

Good advice in this article, especially the bits about communicating every 15-30 minutes depending on severity. Comms are invaluable for timeline/postmortems. Also, for secondary/shadow on-calls, you will need to remind the prima

Thanks, didn’t know about the rubbing your nostrils trick. Though sometimes I want to sneeze to get whatever triggered it out.

Has there been any studies on whether it’s better to hold in sneezes (partially or fully) or let them fully out? I prefer letting it all out and it’s kind of messy but probably healthier. My wife kind of keeps half of it in.

Looking into bright light and getting triggered for sneezing is called the photic sneeze reflex. I’m one of the 18% (?) of the population with it, and it is hereditary. I actually kind of like it, as if I need to sneeze all I need to do is

I used to price track when I moved to a new area, but now I find it way easier to just shop at 2 markets or big box stores that consistently have low prices. In Europe, that would probably be Aldi/Lidl. In the U.S., maybe Costco/T

If you wear pajamas to bed, imagine all button holes on the pajamas were replaced by Velcro. Now imagine the sound and comfort of the Velcro as you roll over at night.

I wouldn’t say they’re insanely expensive - we got 2 magnet sleep suits for $40. They’re super soft and really easy to put on the baby. Check out consignment stores specializing in baby/kids clothing for a good deal, or just buy new

> zero cost up front I guess it depends on when you pay your property tax bill (or when your landlord does). I know I pay over $200/year in taxes to the local library, so my family tries to make heavy use of the place.

This is why you get a mount for the AppleTV and mount it behind the tv itself. I use a total mount, the same one sold in apple retail stores.
