Another option is starting a newsletter, which feels more suited for a writer to gather readers (when compared to gather “followers” on any social media). Full disclaimer: I believe that so much that (as a fellow beginner writer) I created

Did I understood correctly that we now have tools that will likely provide more clues to the disappearance but the text mentions no particular clue, yet? (I read it diagonally trying to dodge the ads)

I didn’t know it was when no balls were left. So this time I got an initial game, jumped ahead after using a special, then let all balls pass. I won by two points! :)

I have dual boot with Fedora and Windows in a Dell laptop for some years. I remember it was very easy to set it up just following some tutorial that I found online, and I am no OS or file systems wiz.

Considering all you said, I still consider it ironic that her son is so unethical

What if they don’t remember the regulation code? ”What is the regulation that covers M&A of companies in the pharmaceutical industry?” It seems much easier to get that response from a LLM than searching words with grep.

I live in São Paulo and I noticed that contrast when I visited the central area of Kopenhagen. It was impressive and delightful how quiet that neighborhood (without cars) is. Of course I still can tolerate the noise, since I still live here

So the way I do seems to stop before the bitter notes. Thanks for the correction. Nice chart too

Idk. I have a cheap grinder that grinds unevenly, so at least it is not uniformly too fine. The barista in the video does use fine grind for this no bloom method, though, so it makes sense. I like the result of the no bloom with my grinder

I learned enough to know what I like, what I don’t like, and what doesn’t matter to me. I don’t like expensive coffee that use “fruit” descriptions to their flavors. I like the expensive ones that use “chocolate” or “nuts” descriptions. I l

I learned that I like without bloom phase. The CO2 getting in the way of extracting flavor might be a good thing, since (at least that is my understanding) the more acidity flavors are extracted later. I like the coffee with more sweetness

Interesting anecdote that I am not entirely sure is true, is that “classical music” genre got its name because music was the only art that we didn’t know how it was in Ancient Greece and Rome, where the term “classic” is usually applied to.

I enjoyed. Particularly that double-flute. A whole concert with that would be interesting. But I also enjoyed the chorus

I couldn’t understand the scale of this “fediverse effect”. There is this quote: > ” making for a traffic amplification of 36704:1” Does it mean that posting a link on Mastodon generates 36704 requests to that URL?

It happened to me too, with my simple site for generating acrostic poems [0]. It would only show the poems create. I tried Adsense, was rejected for lack of content (probably, because they are mysterious about the reason they reject you). T

I wouldn’t consider that much writing over 30 years (from 15 to 45 yo). Fiction as just 4 short stories, being 2 as a child. I’d would say that’s very little writing before your first novel.

“Wall thickness” (not width) decreases from bottom to top, which fits your comment of more weight towards the bottom. Internode length increases up to the middle node (not sure if it’s also middle height), then decreases from mid-node to to

Thanks, didn’t know. I knew about Roberta Williams, but I did not play the Sierra games much (that I remember, only Kings Quest 3, which was the first adventure game I ever played).

For such a male-dominated industry creating a game for a largely male audience, it is impressive how well and positively women were portrayed in the MI games. Elaine in particular is brave, smart, skillful, a leader, but also loving, kind

Great article for a great game. I loved every Monkey Island game (maybe just “liked” the 4th). I even loved the ending of this last one, that was, again, controversial.

The hand movement controls what is being showed in the projector, which are inputs of the computation it does. You speak with such confidence. Always a reliable red flag that you don’t know what you are talking about.

Depends how you define “serious”. I am defining “serious for a consumer product company”. Putting that in a small device seems quite a feat. If you define “serious” as “particles colliding” or “drugs that cure some type of cancer”, then no

From the reviews, it seems different and worse. But it is something novel that requires serious research. Even if the result is disappointing, it is novel enough to not make the it a “scam using old te vc projection”. That was the point of

Is the hand movement to control what is being projected on your hand as a menu “nowhere novel”?

How do you focus in two different things? You can strongly value two (or more) things, but when you decide to focus on something, as I understand the term, you necessarily preclude focusing on another thing.

If think listening audio books is a significantly different experience than reading a book. The narrator’s voice always add interpretation to the text, no matter how neutral they try to be. A monotone voice change how you interpret a charac
