Absolutely, you are always in the flow. With the new machines with the finger print sensors the experience is even smoother no need for typing the password as well.

Lot of interesting concepts and fallacies. My favourites are Ashby's Law of Requisite Variety and costly signalling.

When asked to improve a system, people tend to add to it rather than remove. There is a research article explaining this beautifully but I lot track of it and couldn't find it. (someone please point me to it if they know what I am talk

I don't own one. Haven't given it a serious thought. But as a non user, it annoys me. I can't work next to a person who is banging away on the mechanical keyboard. I don't know the benefits he is gaining but it definitel

I was under the assumption that bigger the monitor more the light and more strain on the eye. Am I thinking wrong ?

After suffering from mild IBS, time and again I get reminded how important gut health is. It is definitely the core of the immune system. Screw up the gut health it will lead to all sorts of ailments.

Frankly, it's not just one thing. It's the seamless experience. Your experience might be different but coming from bulky Lenovo laptop with windows on it to the sleek machine which you are able to just open the lid and get to work

if I had to read anything longer than few minutes I immediately go to the mobile view. Much easier on the eyes.

The more I see these kind of articles the more I am convinced that Rust is the future. Coming from a non technical background and being a python developer I wanted to learn rust but struggling to get comfortable with it. The main reason bei

While my entire friends circle are apple fanboys I stayed away from it because of the cost. Once I had the resources tried MacBook air and now all the devices in my home are replaced by apple one by one. Except for Alexa, never got used to

(Haven't gone through the whole paper) Does this apply to folks suffering from IBS as well ? Or is it better to avoid extremely refrigerated food to be sure ?

I struggle to drink 2 litres. I got frustrated and got an app which will remind me and keep track of how much I am drinking and turns out I am drinking on average 1L. Any techniques you follow ?

Thanks. Being a HSP(highly sensitive person) I am always careful of my coffee after lunch. Now I realised I need to either have it early morning or not at all.

I think any sort of memory dump, be it personal or professional is helpful. I used to write the morning pages and got out of habit and trying to get back. More than "cognitive offloading" as others mentioned it helped me in proces

It's programming if "clever" is a compliment, but it's software engineering if "clever" is an accusation. SWE book puts it really well. https://abseil.io/resources/swe-book
