The page lacks something about how to deal with kids. That's a huge point for those of us that have toddlers and kids at home.

I'm glad you mention Evernote. I also use it for this, and also for many other purposes. It is true that it is propietary software but it is worth mentioning that all the content can be exported as an .enex file, which is xml. So, the

I love Evernote and I use it daily, but Evernote lacks end-to-end encryption, which is a pity. I store lots of information in that app and I would be more reassured if I knew that it is only me who can read the data. I would even pay more i

Nice project. I always wanted a Python based spreadhshet. One where all the formulas are written in python, with access to all the standard library and more. This project is in javascript, but maybe someone could do it in python one day.

Well, we've read the article. That was the objective of the metaphor.

Spanish has the Royal Academy of the Spanish Language, which is exactly like the French Académie. Many latin-American countries have an equivalent, and they coordinate with the Spanish one.

That's exactly the point. In Africa, India, South-East Asia, and other places there is a lot of violent racism and nationalism going on.

The major problem I see here is why making a specific policy for a specific group of radicals? This problem could be tackled with the generic rules already in place, such as "it is forbidden on Facebook to promote violence". There

I tried to switch to Firefox several times, and each time I go back to Chrome because I use Google Sheets and it doesn't work offline on Firefox, which is a must for me. :'( I guess I should quit Sheets, but my spreadsheet cannot

I jump and run on the place for a couple minutes. You don't need more. I haven't had an injury in two years and I'm stronger than ever (8 pull ups, for example).

So true! I'm doing body weight strength training and I'm amazed about the results. What is important is to annotate everything on a spreadsheet, in order to gauge progress, understand the concept of progression, and build a progra

Why bodyweight strenght training is not a workout? What it surprised me is how little you need to do to change your whole body. I'm stronger as ever working out 20-30 minutes three times a week the best weeks, even less sometimes. I un

You are right. I started with the book "Body Weight Strength Anatomy" by Bret Contreras. Then I used the internet to complement the gaps, watch youtube videos, etc. Quiting social networks and watching/listening to news has h

If you do strength training at home, as I do with two kids too, you don't need much preparation. I just take off my t-shirt, do some pull ups, push ups, squats, etc. following a well thought plan, and most of the time the shower is not

I do not trust Facebook, but I trust my bank, which doesn't use cryptocurrency. I guess they use databases, with lots of controls, but a regular database nonetheless. edit: I also trust PayPal, as I use it regularly, and it doesn'

Why can't they just use a good old database, to record transactions? It is a centralized system! I guess Facebook trusts itself!

I don't understand why they won't develop a client for Linux. Is it that difficult? Maybe the code could be also useful for Chrome OS and I guess many Googlers use Linux, so it would be useful for them too. I stick with Dropbox fo

It is Spain. ;-) By the way, I used to live in France. There I didn't nap often, but sometimes I needed to. What I did is to park my car in a quiet place and sleep there after lunch.

I just have checked orgzly and it impressed me. It has really progressed since the last time I checked it. So, now I have to think about the possibility of reverting back to org-mode after a couple of years of heavily using Evernote.
205.
by pqs 8y ago
I used the great org-mode for many years, but the lack of a good option to view and edit my notes from mobile pushed me to Evernote, which I'm happily using since, even though I miss the simplicity of text files and the power of git.

I close the door. Fortunately I have my own office. They don't need to know. I live in a country where this is accepted behaviour, even though it is not common anymore in this context.

I work in Academia. I sleep after lunch every day. I have lunch in 30 minutes and then I sleep 20 minutes. I have an sleeping mat and a pillow in my office and I sleep on the floor. It really boosts my afternoon productivity, specially now

I stopped reading at that point. The article is bad enough, but this unnecessary statement makes the author look really bad.
