Yes they are built different: one person has no struggles writing and actively loves it, cannot stop doing it; the other finds it effortful and painful. Those two people will have vastly different experiences writing the book. The former wi

I agree. It is quite clear that it is impossible to write large code bases safely with manual memory management. Even very small programs often have massive problems. I think many programmers are simply in denial about this.

I had horrific and long lasting negative effects from LSD. My wife absolutely laments that she convinced me to take it the two times I did. I saw mortality and impermanence directly, I felt entirely alone, and also I got extreme motion sick

The "AK" standard library that they use is extremely good and very dynamic. Much better than the C++ STL

I agree. While money has always been there, there hasn't been such intense "statistics" and micromanaging behind every decision. Directors could get away with doing many things out of the respect for the art rather than money

As a previously strongly practising Buddhist, I can say, Buddhism is a total scam. Some of the absolute worst and most deluded people I've known are devout Buddhists. I even had a formal teacher and even he could do nothing to help me

Even just 20 minutes a day sustained over a long time (e.g. 5 years) is enough to bring life-changing effects. It isn't as benign as it sounds on paper

20 minutes twice a day for 5 years is not at all extreme

The writing simply has to be very high quality. Reading in games obviously is not entirely unpopular, see Disco Elysium, but then again that eventually got very good voice acting to read it all out, which helps a lot

I remember when Google's new CAPTCHA system was introduced and you just had one click and could get through, now you have to spend ages clicking photos of american busses.

I made a really rough script that does a bunch of transformations on bibtex files to have them be ready for use in academic papers: 1. Shorten author lists to 10 authors 2. Abbreviate journal names 3. Remove unneeded IDs and replace with do

People say NFTs open a huge new opportunity to sell art, but the only reason why the demand is higher is because of hype. Once that has died down, it will return to before: people not wanting to pay artists for commissions, no one contribut

First, this is already factored into mainstream climate research. Two, do you really think this is enough to totally offset the catastrophic effects of climate change? Interesting to see an increasing number of climate change conspiracy the
