Someone (not me) posted a link to the satirical product 'I Need A White Guy' (2019) [0]. I dug into it and found that the author, Jabari Bell [1], recently published a blog post describing the context, motivation and message of th

Is there any data on how Bison compares to Beef regarding climate impact? I'd expect it to be less damaging because the herds are managed differently, but I have no data on that.

Exactly. That was my experience. I snapped out of it by recognizing that giving into RBP was a loss of control in itself. I get a lot more “fuck you Ill do want I want” satisfaction by going to bed ASAP, waking up early, and using those ear

I found the “revenge bedtime procrastination” concept to be very empowering. It put a name to a thing I was doing, and frustrated by, and thus let me see it more clearly. For me, there’s a big difference between an intentional decision to s

That's a useful point. I think economics play a role as well. Specifically, when the economy increases rewards to education and higher-level thinking, the damage caused by child abuse becomes felt more broadly. It's always been

TinyBeans [0] is the ideal photo sharing app for me & my family. It is totally focused on empowering you to (1) build a chronological feed of good photos and videos and (2) share it with a tightly controlled group of people. TinyBeans r

I'm skeptical about the methodology here. The Stack Overflow Developer Survey [0] is my go-to source for this kind of thing, and it has very different results. Of course, it's measuring overall popularity while W3Techs is looking

Yeah, strange omission. No Metaphone or Double Metaphone either, though IIRC there are some IP entanglements with those. It does include two other Phonetic algorithms, neither of which I’m familiar with:

Perhaps the unvaccinated people in low-vaccination countries are unvaccinated due to low vaccine supply, and thus take non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPI: masks, social distancing) seriously, while the holdouts in high-vaccine countries

If the motherboard is replaceable, why not order one now, then upgrade to an AMD motherboard + CPU when they’re available?

True, but that’s probably an upside. The “freshman experience” is many things, but it’s NOT an easy environment to learn basic study skills if you missed that in high school.

I agree. The reason it seems like web standards are always “behind where we should be by now” is mostly a coordination problem, with some prognostication error. To work seamlessly, we have to agree on what the standard should be and impleme

Thanks for the link. Daring Fireball’s analysis is the most helpful take I’ve seen on the topic so far: https://daringfireball.net/2021/08/apple_child_safety_initia...

and then there's "Android Automotive" which is installed directly on the car by the OEM. Honestly the branding is just terrible.

This might be a good scenario for pipx. It’s a Python package manager optimized for deploying applications instead of libraries. https://pypa.github.io/pipx/

Interesting idea, I have questions: - How will you incentivize primes & subs to participate? - How will you organize contracts and contractors to identify relevant partnerships? - Will you provide any ratings, reputation or other mechan

Awesome! More help is always needed in this space. There are already a few contract opportunity search platforms. Is your primary differentiation the proprietary feeds from prime contractors? FYI - the SEWP acronym meaning changed a while b
