I would do one of the following: - Travel. Maybe get your motorcycle license if you don't have one already and do a long journey such as the Pan American highway. But there is something about travelling that puts things in perspective

I don’t have astigmatism but I have had eye strain from coding. Some recommendations if you’re on a Mac: - HazeOver: dims any part of the screen that isn’t in focus - Noir: makes every website into dark mode. Works more consistently than D

I get that for regular people but I thought that Mastodon was mainly populated with tech enthusiasts until Elon took over Twitter and people migrated. I'm surprised as I thought that, being tech enthusiasts, the initial users would hav

Yeah I can understand both of these points. I do find it odd how it has gained so much traction if there are better alternatives though?

So what are the actual benefits of using something like this over something like mastodon or something like pleroma? Are they all just essentially the same thing? I'm starting to wonder now if 'self hosted single user' is a b

I find this a weird decision too. Why would you choose a product made by your director competitor to be a core part of your product? I suppose it’s semi-common with big companies (Apple using Samsung produced iPhone parts comes to mind) but

Only tangentially relevant but there is a great comedy drama show on Amazon Prime at the minute about the forming of a professional women's baseball team during WW2 called A League Of Their Own.

It’s interesting because in the writing world there’s a spectrum with plotters at one end and pantsers at the other. Plotters work similarly to what you’ve suggested, starting with a plot and working their way down to the actual writing. Pa

So there is built in support with it in the native Apple programs now such as notes, you just have to select the pencil which has an "A" on it and it will automatically convert whatever you write into text. If you don't use t

My internal image of him is the iconic "oldish bald guy with thin circle glasses, black turtleneck and dad jeans" but young Steve Jobs actually looks surprisingly similar to Ashton Kutcher.

I’m still waiting for a rust text editor or ide to emerge and take off. I think that’s going to be ‘the one’. I’ve been trying to go for rust software wherever I can on my new MacBook and it’s always blazingly fast. Alacritty literally load

Average UK student loan debt is actually greater than in America and, even worse, was even accumulating 12% interest rates earlier this year before the government finally woke the fuck up and did something about it. The loans are better tha

Haven't read the article yet but personally I think the number one reason is culture. Europe is so conservative it is unreal - it still has kings, queens, and aristocracy ffs. You've got centuries of antiquated customs, old boy ne

How did you discover these loopholes in the first place? Did you work in the finance industry or an ATM maker or something like that and just figured it out?

Genuine question: I seem to recall there being some very similar news about how 'ignition' had been achieved not too long ago. Am I imagining things or is this a genuine new development?

Yeah I see what you’re saying, I had my last iPad for about 7 years and I only upgraded because I wanted the latest OS and also wanted my Mac and iPad to both be on the Arm chips. I will probably upgrade my MacBook in 3-4 years but will wai

The point is that when you buy a MacBook Pro, it has a full-size keyboard and a trackpad. It also has fans, ports, a larger case etc. The MacBook presumably costs more in terms of raw materials, parts and assembly so it is odd to see that t
