As far as I know, anosmia would be the inability to smell. Parosmia would be scents smelling like other things, or the inability to identify certain smells. And since taste and smell are so closely related, I haven’t been able to drink cola

How long until the AI estimates how fast you were going based on the time you were tagged at 2 cameras? The system says travel between these cameras should take 3 minutes. You made it in 2:45. No review, just a ticket in the mail.

If you’re on a Mac, I recommend qlmarkdown. It’s a customizable quick look renderer for markdown (md) files. https://github.com/sbarex/QLMarkdown

Exactly my experience. After my last couple races or long workouts, my HRV dipped a few ms for a few days before coming back to normal. In this case, it’s not telling me anything I don’t already know. But in other instances, a lower HRV wou

I’ve heard about 75-85/25-15, but just round it to 80/20. Zone 3/Tempo sessions can help to raise speed so that Z2 is faster for the same intensity. Obviously lower intensity workouts can go for longer and the high z5 stuff f

Careful there. By combining running and cycling, you’re 2/3 of the way to triathlons. And why suck at 1 sport when you can suck at 3?

I mean, he was a professional athlete, so that’s kind of the point he was making. As you progress in fitness, it sucks less which means your body has adapted and you can go faster/ harder/ longer.

Not that it’s perfect, far from it, but Movies Anywhere is a baby step in the right direction for at least Movies (on some services).

I have a limited background in computing hardware, but I really appreciate the thought he puts into explaining both the why and how. His 8-bit CPU videos are just amazing, and even at ~1 Hz, it’s incredible to think about what all happens.

And the “include_link.mk” file. Yea, that’s probably a good thing.

As a non-developer, the whole situation with a bad software update to the Voyager spacecraft really puts things into perspective as far as how bad remote updates can be. It’s also a testament to the way that the system was designed that the

Not exactly. I work as a project manager in the transportation field, and I can tell you that inflation has doubled (or more) the cost of several of my projects in the past few years. Most of the increases can be attributed to rising costs,

It certainly caused me to rethink my spending. I signed up for Apple One Premium as soon as it was available. With the latest hikes, I’ve ditched the bundle and now I just have Music and iCloud storage. So in their quest for increased reven

I’ve had this for the past 6 months. I’d honestly rather have entirely lost my sense of smell than to go through this.

Just surprised Alec took that one apart and didn’t have a separate one already disassembled. I’m only about halfway through, but like most of his videos this one is fascinating

Sam’s club has the app checkout, which I prefer to waiting in line at Sam’s. Just scan everything as you go using your own phone. Tap pay and bypass the line (or at least the checkout line).

Yeah. I came here to post this. It’s funny that the article lists the XR as compatible when the XS and XR were released at the same time (A12 bionic SoC).

True. Also the consumer tradeoff of being able to do way more with your phone for the slight inconvenience of having to charge your phone everyday. And with the advances in technology, most people can get slightly more than a day which mean

Thanks for posting this. I’m going to check mine as soon as I get home. https://bike.shimano.com/en-US/information/customer-services... For quick reference the affected model numbers are DURA-ACE and ULTEGRA brand

The animal in question being an alligator, I’d assume the owner and pet would split up and see each other later. However, if the animal in question had been a crocodile, I assume they would have split and met back up after a while.

If this were about the younger generations being unable to afford housing, the sentiment would be to stop ordering avocado toast and going to Starbucks all the time. Obviously the problem is much bigger and complex, and maybe something will

I’m sure the dozens of TV shows don’t help this either. Law and Order is never wrong and their science and methods are flawless. Obviously I’m being sarcastic, but I think it clouds the jury’s thought process

It’s the worst of all possible outcomes. Minimum wage stagnated and employees demanded better pay. Covid hit and forced fast food restaurants to adjust operations. Prices increased due to “inflation”, but really it’s just massive corporate

Best thing I ever did was unfollow everyone in my LI network. I don’t see any of the toxic positivity posts, or the “I’m so proud of myself” posts or the “I accepted X position with Y” posts.
