My dad luckily takes care of his own computer problems. I used to support my grandmother. You learn a great deal about yourself and technology after you spend 15 minutes trying to explain the concept of scrollbars to an 80 year old.

adding my ten-ish year history of supporting other people (I'm also pushing 30), I've learned this one fact: trying to help other people will frequently result in my taking ownership of ALL of their problems in their eyes. which seems like

passing around naked things in python is one of my favourite things about python. I have c# for when I want to pass around well dressed and proper things around…

I've been a user of okcupid, on and off, for several years. at this point, I dont really even look at scores anymore. I can tell based on profile text alone whether I'm likely to get along with a person. but this is age and experience, not

I think almost everybody has a story like this. when I was in grade 12, I got a job as the sysadmin of three linux labs at my highschool. I didn't have a lot of sysadmin experience, but part of grade 12 comp sci was to give students a chanc

music is definitely key. I find sometimes I need something with a good beat to act like a metronome. the beatles is a good one these days.

from observation of my more overweight friends and their friends and habits: a huuuuge factor is motivation. and this guy is a trainer. he can flip a switch in his head and be back on the proper diet and exercise routine. that step is by fa

Hey, I actually work for one of the competitors of the above, and I'm wondering if you had a bit more info about this? feel free to email me, if you'd rather take this offline :) oren.mazor@gmail.com

that's absurdly rational. but also impossible to prove.

that makes a lot of sense and reminds me all of that stuff I've read about HIIT

the bit about body temperature is really interesting. I'm also much warmer on average when I regularly hit the gym. I thought it was just me.

progress requires some kind of encapsulation. I dont need to make fire to boil eggs… or even understand how the power gets to my house.

This happened in cars ages ago. I'm the only one of my friends who knows how to debug a carburetor. hell, I'm the only one who cares. and thats fine. not everybody cares. some people just want to drive.

Thanks a lot. Now I'm going to spend half the evening writing a script to grab random spam out of my gmail and using this API to try and automatically turn spam into ham. I bet siri can already do this.

oh, I like this. edit: would you want to see the same results, or have it re-run every time the link is loaded? because you could technically just copy paste the report into pastebin…

by orenmazor 15y ago
what kind of stats would you be interested in seeing? how often people's tests result in spam vs ham scores? because while I can't see what people are testing, given that it's friday afternoon, I'm betting there's a lot of "asdfasdf" going

Hey Benjamin, 1) This test is representative of our system. I realize that other systems can be set up different with different settings. given that users of the Postmark app send email through us, they might be interested to see what we
