But will it be as convenient, as cheap, and have everything I want?

I agree that nothing makes any of your categories better than the others: achievement, fun experiences, relationships. But if I look back on my life so far, something that does seem worth optimizing for is intensity/high quality. I&#

I see what you're saying, but musical notation isn't a precise representation of the audio. Given the same score, two musicians can produce very different interpretations. Perhaps I should have said 'audio' instead of &#

Would you say that a vim plugin in your IDE of choice gives you the best of both worlds? The superior semantic manipulation of an IDE and the superior text manipulation of vim.

IntelliJ (the canonical JetBrains IDE) has plugins for the first 6 of those - so at least for those, it does work the same way. The hotkeys to perform the actions mentioned in the parent comment don't change.

This is a timely post as I've been trying to use Vim more since last year, and recently started a new project with the aim of working exclusively in Vim. And I'm torn. On the one hand I want to significantly increase how fast I ca

What do you think of using vim plugins inside an IDE, such as IdeaVIM? How much of the benefits of what you describe do you think would remain? I've been trying to spend more time in vim since last year because I can imagine a world wi

This is a great point that I never thought of. Seems like a general example of the idea that lowering the cost of some action sufficiently low can lead to not just efficiency gains in areas where that action is currently used, but also new

Reading Zvi's taxonomy of pizzas ( https://thezvi.wordpress.com/2017/03/17/restaurant-guide-2-p... ) was when I realized that NY style pizza is the type I love. Bookmarking this list to go through on a f

Can I ask which continuous monitoring device you use? I'm looking for one to see how my blood sugar fluctuates throughout the day. The good ones seem to be behind a prescription wall, so I was considering the freestyle libre.

I wonder how much of the results from this intervention are driven purely by the act of fasting for 16 hours out of every 24, vs the associated acts of consuming fewer calories and altering diets? The abstracts posted below ( https:/&

It seems possible to do intermittent fasting (for example the typical 16 hours fasted / 8 hours eating schedule) and still get enough calories. You just have to fit them into the 8 hours. My own problem is that if I skip any meal I get

Speaking from very recent experience, referrals are by no means enough to get an interview. I found they helped but I think school name (if you go to a top 5 or so) + quality of projects/past experience are also very important.

I recently installed the "Key Promoter" plugin. It shows a popup message in the bottom right every time you use your mouse for an action, telling you what the keyboard shortcut for that action is. I've picked up a couple of s

They talk about how they use two models in the article, DALL-E and Stable Diffusion. So it seems like multi-model is correct. Why is it a bad title if there's no typo?

I just shifted from Logseq to Obsidian over the last couple of weeks. One of my reasons for doing so is that while Logseq does technically store your notes as local markdown files, there's so much added on top of that, that I can'
