I often recall the Robin Williams quote: >“I think the saddest people always try their hardest to make people happy because they know what it’s like to feel absolutely worthless and they don’t want anyone else to feel like that.” I consi

I have been making an effort to only buy athletic wear with 100% recycled polyester. I guess now I throw them all out and only buy wasteful virgin polyester athletic wear?

Same exact thing happened to me. Super frustrating. I'm ready to just leave it uninstalled at this point. I'll probably switch to Sunsama or give Amie a try again

It's funny, I also consider it a red flag if they're still using Sketch. However, personally, I still want Sketch to succeed and return to being a viable option

As the article mentions, between these reindeer sleeping while they eat and penguins sleeping for 4 seconds at a time, it's pretty amazing what we're learning about how animals sleep. I wonder if humans can ever learn to use thes

I've never heard of these fern-based supplements before. How are they supposed to be better than other antioxidants?

Curious how gas x helps with acid reflux. My understanding is that it's for bloating more than reflux. Do you find it works better than antacids?

I assume you mean 1mg of melatonin? Also, I've learned that less melatonin is actually more effective, so 0.1 MG or 0.3mg is likely a better dosage

I've been enjoying the reading experience on my Supernote A5x. I'd recommend it if you're looking for something a bit more multifunctional than a dedicated e-reader

Looks like Miro, but as the main interaction layer rather than a dedicated app. I feel like it would require extra user effort in terms of additional spatial memory to easily navigate?

Off topic, but I'm curious about the lack of capitalization for "Nasa" (sic). Is this an oversight by the editor or a style guide choice? "BBC" is capitalized in another article, so presumably it's just a typo?

This is so interesting, thanks for sharing! (Might want to add 2020 to the title)

I can't believe how hostile everyone is. You may dislike Mozilla, but they're doing a hell of a lot more to respect users and promote an open internet than Google and Microsoft

A counter anecdote is that I have the exact opposite use case. I don't share my computer with other users, so I've never needed something like profiles. Firefox containers are great for keeping different sites, especially those no

I've been contemplating doing this for a while now. I'm definitely ready to move on from my current city. But what holds me back is, frankly, that I'm scared of not having any friends. I don't want to have to rebuild my

I don't see how HBO can maintain their reputation and prestige with the way Zaslav is running things. Canceling niche, creative, and risk-taking shows and removing accesses to back catalog shows like Westworld entirely. Flooding HBO wi

As a designer, this is 100% correct. I blame Apple and iOS for using toggles/switches instead of checkboxes. And I blame all the people out there who blindly follow whatever Apple does for continuing the trend. As someone else in this

If anyone is like me and finds yerba mate too strong or too bitter, I highly recommend guayusa. It's from the same genus so it's a caffeinated holly plant (ilex guayusa) too, but it has a more pleasant, slightly sweet taste. Anecd

Another shoutout for Inoreader. Been using it for years. The free tier is great, but the paid tier is seriously one of the best investments I've ever made
