I wish! Yes, the better you get at riffle shuffling, the more it will approximate a faro shuffle (meaning less "clumps" and more singles alternating) in some parts of the deck, but it's the repetition that makes it random. If

How’s your progress going? I read The Memory Book (Harry Lorayne) 20 years ago, and have always been interested, but assumed it would take years to be proficient. Wasn’t until I read Moonwalking With Einstein that I realized that with consi

Penn has mentioned a few times on his podcast that him and Rob Pike are good friends from way back, and has shared several anecdotes. One I remember and found funny was that one time Penn saw Rob talking to someone, and Rob asked for their

For me, it was Skittles! I traveled to the UK, bought some Skittles, and almost spit them out (blackcurrant instead of grape). Had to look up what it was. Still haven’t tried the real thing, only in candy form.

Nice! I remember learning about Cronhub when the original developer was building in public on social media, back in 2019. I remember thinking it was a cool idea, and even recommended it to a friend that was running a startup and was having

Perhaps there were special deals in place for high profile podcasts? I’ve never used the Apple Podcast app, and only learned about the Apple only features while listening to John Carreyrou‘s podcast during the Theranos trial. They had membe

The Spanish “scene” has been around for a while! I have a friend who moved to Spain in the 90s to study under Ascanio. After Ascanio, Tamariz and the late Gabi Pareras seem to have the biggest influences, but Gabi was not well known outside

If you enjoyed reading this article, you’ll probably also enjoy Joshua Jay’s book How Magicians Think. Among other things, he describes the experience of spending a few days visiting Tamariz. There’s a significant number of magicians worldw

This OS "upgrade" has been annoying. At least I'm not the only one with issues, and I have some of the same issues listed listed here. I hadn't seen them documented elsewhere. I waited until the first point release to up

I love rclone, have been using it to reliably move large files between different could providers (thanks Nick!). GUI applications were constantly crashing, rclone has always been reliable. Make sure to support your favorite open source proj

All of them good points. I'll add another wrinkle; for some reasons I can barely remember, I have 2 different Apple IDs. I was a paid .Mac user when it was a thing, but I also had a different account to make iTunes purchases back in th

I'm more or less on the same boat, but this would be my first time trying it. Not familiar with all the available API platforms, but while doing some research, Alpaca kept showing up ( https://alpaca.markets ) so I just ope

I still use https://fluidapp.com/ when I have to log into Facebook from the computer, hopefully, this will replace it! Looks cool, can't wait for support for the other websites.

I also got the "Registration is denied" error multiple times with no other error messages. Does your company name have any non-alphanumeric characters? I removed the "&" from mine and was able to register.

Are you familiar with Ramit Sethi, from https://www.iwillteachyoutoberich.com/ ? He has shifted a bit from a blog about financial advice but has years of entries in the blog (and a book from a few years ago).

If anyone caught Derek Delgaudio's Off-Broadway show "In and Of Itself", he dealt with this concept. Great show, limited run just ended recently.

I've used Plivo in the past and was happy with the results. Since you mention Twillio, I'm assuming you're okay with a development platform and are not necessarily looking for a consumer product. Plivo did recently roll out P

Interesting. The article itself does not add much insight from the professor (Dr. Melissa González) since she didn't respond to requests for comments, so it is based on a research paper she cited and an email she sent to potential stu

Is this for businesses only, or can individuals with a Twilio account also make use of this API?

I've also been guilty of this. For programming side projects, I recently decided I was going to think of them as microservices. I've been guilty of overengineering what should have been something simple and losing interest halfway
