I’d love a car with a tiny battery for 99% of the time when I’m just driving locally and the ability to have an extra, large battery that can be slotted in when I want to make a longer trip. With only the short range battery most of the tim

I found the same. Then I watched kids using it by following instruction sheets, picking up the concepts, tweaking, making their own projects, and moving on to Python. I got to understand Scratch by learning how kids use it. It’s just a mind

1. Find ‘map’, ‘filter’, ‘reduce’. 2. Implement ‘reduce’ from scratch. 3. Write a static site builder. This means I need to learn how to bring in libraries / packages, do some Markdown processing, do some templating. 4. Use a web app f

I use it to get familiar with various concepts and idioms in languages I don’t know at all, and also for ones I feel comfortable with, where there are parts I’d like to understand and perhaps use in future. It’s incredible!

The resale value of that 2019 will be high. I don’t know the safest place to sell them though. Recommendations welcome! EBay just fills me with dread.

For those who do cryptic crosswords, CrosswordGenius [1] on iOS (Android coming apparently) will solve clues for you - and explain the logic it used! This is extremely helpful when you aren’t familiar with a particular setter’s style. If yo

Trams work well in the UK. Their advantage is their predictability, both in terms of how long they will be following the exact same route (rails mean this is hard to change) and their ability to remain unaffected by other traffic due to pri

The most important 'feature' that comes with a large camera body, for me, is that when I operate the controls, I don't lose my grip. This means I can operate controls at the same time, in quick succession, etc. When I'm

That’s great. We have lots of large TVs for sharing in meeting spaces but these tend to have an HDMI cable hanging off them (you don’t want to try to plug your own cable in as it can be tricky to reach) so being able to plug that cable into

Because every TV in every space in your office has a mini display port cable hanging out of it for you to plug into?

If you were keen on the idea of finding some shortcuts, you would buy a book or search for docs or something though, right?

by tokamak-teapot 4y ago
Seeing as you and I both know the shortcut, how is it inaccessible or hidden? Just because it’s not there cluttering up the visual interface doesn’t mean it’s hidden. For anyone who thinks they might want it, they can find it. For anyone el

I enjoy learning enough of novel (to me) languages so that I can do some fun stuff. Usually when I look at a language One of the first things I do is look for familiarity: How to map, filter and reduce - and how to work with collections and

Fat's the best for satiety, yes. I find it much easier to overeat when I'm mainly eating protein. I'd guess you kept the mental benefits because you were still in ketosis. While I'm sure being leaner (if you were overwei

I expect to die at approximately 94, all things being average. I also expect that I’ll be bedridden for the last three months, and that I’ll spend most of those three months fighting with technology and cursing its frustrating interfaces, n

Trust me, I can easily overeat calories without carbs - on keto - and gain weight. It’s a lot easier to choose not to, however.

Maybe executive function issues create those thoughts, but it's also tempting to think that maybe there is a contribution from the following from one's childhood: * Being told you're lazy * Being told you're stupid * Bei

I’ll have the wrong cable with me because I’m just bad at having the right stuff with me anyway. Adding to my confusion is fine though. I’ll just buy particular colours or cable or put tags of them or something. I don’t trust random cables

To be fair, Spotify is doing something pretty magical here. I can’t figure out how they usually start tracks playing within what feels like microseconds after I choose them. Pre caching? Yes but sometimes I don’t see how it could have reaso

Everyone else who rented a flat negotiated 10% off. Your landlord guessed you were lying so altered subsequent planned rent increases to more than make up the difference - because they don’t like you. It surprises and slightly delights me t

A solution to this would be for fewer people to have a personal vehicle parked outside their house all the time. Perhaps a first step could be self driving to and from a car park near your house. You ‘hail’ your car via an app / button
