I'm sure many of us already apply this in our daily lives (I know I do). I think it's part of the reason the Pomodoro technique works well for me. One app that uses this well is Duolingo, which has a circular progress bar for &#x2

Profiles definitely have the basic functionality, but I like to keep all my extensions the same across my containers, and it's also easy to set up rules such that a certain site will always open in a certain container. You don't h

I would encourage creators to run their own in-video ads (avoiding unethical tracking) and collect funds directly from viewers (i.e. Patreon). This seems to be a much more stable way of collecting income, and doesn't expose them to the

I've always thought of typing lessons as being a thing from long before computers. Back then it was treated as a serious skill which could lead directly to employment. Now it's just something you're expected to know. I had pl

Sounds like iOS's fault for not providing a way to keep the camera on standby at the expense of battery life, without compromising privacy. Just like how there should be more privacy-preserving methods for querying clipboard contents,
