I'll vouch for everything in this article [1] and add: if doing this, sleep consistently every day. If you're in the middle of something, just drop it and go to sleep. If you've been working on something all week, you'

Saurik makes most of the points that I would have if I had expounded on my comment here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7051899 If naught else, I will say that: - The use of Cmd so widely and consistently makes it eas

This sort of data is compiled in quite a few environments in the UK (race surveys go out with all sorts of things) such that entities (especially government ones) can ensure that they are conforming to 'equal opportunities' legisl

After switching to OS X after spending years using Windows and then Linux, I found it patently the case that the keyboard shortcuts in OS X are much better in both ease of use and consistency across applications. The use of the Command

vimoutliner ( https://github.com/vimoutliner/vimoutliner ) is also terribly mature and appropriate for a lot of tasks one might use Org mode for - certainly worth a look.

I agree with you, but I think that the reason that so many don't get the chance to work on projects such as these has less to do with proficiency or 'productivity' (in many, but far from all cases) and more to do with emplo

Might anyone be able to comment on his employment in all these years? Every time I've come across this article it's seemed to me that the work he's done, whilst notable, is an entirely reasonable and very achievable amount

Exactly my point - the prices I cite are lower than you could possibly get on the open market. I'm trying to argue that housing is expensive in those areas - really expensive student accommodation really helps my cause. :P
