Depending on who you ask that variance is 0.1-0.4% which is extremely tiny, so I'm not sure what you mean by "huge genetic variance in humanity".

I agree, from memory windows will prefer a 60hz rate at the highest resolution until the user (or “monitor .inf file) overrides it. I kind of feel MacaOS does the same - indeed a quick test shows my monitor at 60hz even though there is a fr

Agreed I've never had a problem with LG monitors. Samsung, on the other hand, have been a grab bag of razors and needles. I even went as far as to buy one of those "weird" [0] LG screens that have 4096 horizontal resolution a

Well… this monitor and its EDID are actually correct. The monitor supports 3440x1440 @ 144hz and in the EDID it’s setting that mode as preferred. I checked online and LG market the monitor with those specs, so it’s not an error. It would pr

TL;DR: You might have Carbon Monoxide poisoning which is inducing memory loss and these “hacks” you are experiencing are merely you doing things to yourself that you don’t remember.

I believe it’s less related to stress and more related to a predatory response. Halting breathing is a great way to avoid movement when intently focusing on prey (look at cats who do the same thing, although they do have to wobble their hea

The mark of a 10x dev is the ability to script an auto-gaslight-comment of “Are you sure that’s what you intended?”. No better way to get a dev to question their sanity with a comment that makes them second guess their own goals.

First of all I invoke Betteridge's Law. Secondly “GDP” is a god awful measurement of “wealthyness” or “poorness” of a country. Literally every time there’s a natural disaster, overfishing, strip mining, man made disaster, or O.J. Simps

Well usually it’s because of train worker union strikes and lots of lobbying on their behalf. The reality is it’s political suicide to put that many people out of work in one fell swoop and it’s expensive to replace all rolling stock in o

The article mentions Fahrenheit (-112f), which means it was -80C, so the first one you found would have been "good enough". A quick google finds a -80C freezer for $14000 [0] a fraction of the $1million they've "lost&quo

To counter that, H2O has a really easy path to exit the atmosphere (straight down), and it’s not like we’re producing that much more… Unlike CO2 which has been nicely stored away from the atmosphere for millions of years…
