To echo many sentiments here: Sublime does all I want in a text editor and I use it a lot. When VSCode became all the rage, I tried it but became annoyed very quickly with the loading times and wasted resources, so I switched back to Sublim

Very cool! Looking forward to the future developments! :) Even as it stands today, all the old Pebbles can still be used and are still great. On Android, it's easy using the Gadgetbridge app or even the original Pebble app. On iOS, you

Nobody claimed what you claim they claimed - as I suspect you know full well. The relevant section in the original report is called "Sensitivity, anger and misogynistic beliefs" ( beliefs , not behaviours) and cites a few sources:

I think our views are not too dissimilar and I agree with Jobs being exceptional. I also agree that the kind of (only) quantitatively driven science you are describing is not sufficient to predict innovation. However, there are also other,

How does not liking notifications and engaging with messengers, social networks and other sources of high-volume input translate to not interacting with other people? There's still, you know, real life?!
