I have never heard about this before. Good news if true. Antibiotics seem to be a bit of a Tragedy of the Commons situation though; my intuition is that people should do this but probably won't.

I think you might be an outlier. My own anecdote is that literally everyone I know who doesn't use a case (albeit a small number of people) has cracked their phone at some point while I've known them.

One way to achieve this is to set the interface to monochrome. Settings -> Accessibility -> Display & Text Size -> Color Filters -> Monochrome It becomes instantly less appealing.

I’ve always been excited by posts like this but they always end up looking like far too much work for my taste. This is the first one where I’ve thought, “hey I could do that over the course of a few of the baby’s naps!”

I did about 102% of Hollow Knight, mostly without a guide and loved it. So, yes, I probably should have qualified my statement. I meant this more if my parent wanted to get through Hollow Knight quickly, as a gateway for Silksong. I say thi

If you do, use a guide or something to get through Hollow Knight. If you 100% Hollow Knight you’ll probably be too burnt out to pick up Silksong for a while.

I've also started to do this. I've given away a few copies of Neuromancer now. One of which I gave away as part of a Android: Netrunner sale I made :)

In Happiness Hypothesis Jonathan Haidt talks about how we all have a basic setting for these kind of things. We can move the bar around but it always tends back toward that default. He uses the example of this being why people who read se

To me it's working backwards though. i.e. the black ball is creating more whitespace and visa versa. It's not immediately evident to me why that would be the case.

India probably represents the largest “homogenous” block of the English speaking world. I think the internet is coming to reflect that more and more as it develops and more of the population comes online. Edit: apparently it’s 2nd in number

Just looking now at his channel now. I’m happy to see a critique of Gabor Mate’s ADHD theory in his playlists. I’ll watch that for sure as I’ve always felt very uneasy, and a little indignant, listening to Mate talk about ADHD; but I’ve nev

Why is “computer” not pluralised in the page title? I thought it was a mistake in the post; but it’s the same on the page.

If you look up Daniel Riday you won't be surprised by this. He is covered in tattoos, and is himself a tattooist specialising in hand-poke and non-machine tattooing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1COALTMnP-8

I'm not sure what the stats are, but my anecdote is that two family members who did long term keto have both developed permanent renal problems in their 60s. They can now eat only very little protein. The one person's Dr. told her

One cannot start a hobby without someone else suggesting you try to monetise it's output. It brings to mind Marx's labour theory of value. But does the theory describe this psyche; or has the theory itself suggested to us that all
