I wonder if this will have implications for other brain conditions, like Parkinson's, depression, or narcolepsy where some protein or hormone is missing from the brain and can't be delivered across the BBB.

This is great! I have a couple points of feedback: If I accidentally click out, there's no way to recover my place. A forward arrow or option to start at any pose by clicking in the preview would fix that. Some training poses would be

I would love this, but also it would be way more expensive to tile, because you can't manufacture a consistent sheet of tiles. No two sheets would be alike!

Brave robot is an ice cream brand with lab-grown whey and it's quite good. I haven't tried any cheese with lab-grown casein yet.

I've long wanted some kind of miniaturized version of a cafeteria dishwasher where you put dirty dishes in one side and clean dishes come out the other a few seconds later. I want my kitchen to stay clean and it would be so nice for ev

The design is surprising similar to Qubemoney.com's app, which is incredible and is bank and envelope budgeting in one.

It would be interesting to see results around what styles and ages of photos people are worse at guess age for on average.

The lab I used to work at is deep in origami-inspired engineering: https://www.compliantmechanisms.byu.edu/ They have resources for anyone wanting to learn more.

Another new resource I've discovered is qubemoney.com. Great way to set a budget and stick to it. They issue a debit card that declines unless you "open" a budget first on the app. That way you always have to think about what

One irony between investing and spending is that people often use "investment" to refer to a big expense whether it provides a return or not. It's a dangerous mindset.

Are you thinking I could use the data from the keylogger to script my own typing test? That would work, although a bit more effort than I was hoping for atm.

"background typing test" "in-browser browser typing test" "real-time typing test" The SEO is pretty strong with "typing test" so that may be my problem.

It would be awesome to find the MIPI CSI (camera interface) standard on sci-hub or libgenesis, but it doesn't seem to be there.

In general, I strongly recommend finding a good therapist. It can take a few tries to find one that works for you, so don't give up if it takes awhile. To your specific questions, I've had some similar experiences and find that it

Based on a misreading of the title, I thought this was going to be about organizing what you've learned about other people and how to remember the things that are important to them. That would be really cool.

I have referred back to the three negotiation lessons taught in this NPR Planet Money episode many times: https://www.npr.org/sections/money/2012/12/21/167802325/epis...

Even if code reviewers only made sure the files changed made sense, the reviews would be worth it.

This is where I've found the most value. It's so much more effective to communicate about implementation after the developer has taken a first stab at the problem.

I can't seem to get it to my area. It's in Ireland and I can't find an option to make it go anywhere else.

Not just storage, but transmission. From what I understand were far from a plant on the east coast being able to fill needs on the West. Interstate and international transmission lines would solve a lot of problems easier than more storage.

It would also be a lot more compelling to show number of deals. I get the impression it's deal quantity that slows. Size is held as more of a standard.

I've found it helpful to walk while I read difficult material. It makes it harder for me to turn to a distracting website. When I get tired I stop reading and enjoy the scenery for a couple minutes, which helps me feel a little refresh
