It depends on the person, as a sample size of one I was on 5,000IU and my levels were still on the low end (almost still deficient), and my calcium levels were still safely on the low side as well. Ultimately people should be getting their

As others have mentioned there already is the ".home.arpa" TLD but I definitely think ".internal" is a step up in terms of clarity. That said, for my internal network I just put things under a subdomain of a domain I own

Generally yes, although I definitely wish the initial load was speedier the better looks and "flow" are worth it imo. I usually browse Reddit using Relay and look at my saved posts on desktop, which has benefited a lot from the re

Probably https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14964006 I remember seeing this comparison and finding it quite profound as well.

There are definite a lot of advantages to building with web technologies, it's just that Electron is an excessively heavy way of enabling it since it basically just gives you a webapp with a whole browser bundled in. PWAs are a much be

I still think that the majority of Electron apps can and should just be PWAs. Most like Discord pretty much just wrap their webapp anyway.

I've found myself preferring type guards for checking action type, since it avoids you having to have keep one big `Actions` union around that takes X amount of lines and really doesn't serve any other purpose.

HTML makes perfect sense, as another poster said. I've also found Authorea[1] to be pretty promising. [1] https://www.authorea.com/

I was surprised at just how comically angry people were over this. I can kind of understand their arguments against a trend of being too change-happy and over-correcting, but these things really should be considered case-by-case, not on whe

Inbox has got to be the single most useful productivity tool for me. Pinning, bundling, and snoozing just make managing emails so quick and efficient since you can easily triage and get rid of what doesn't matter, and Gmail as it curre

Phyles primarily based on shared values honestly seem more sensible than nation-states primarily based on geography (although of course these may overlap). The latter often seems to lead to the 51% being the decision makers which leaves the

Google to me seems like a case of natural monopoly[1]. Competition in this market is stifled by the amount of investment and infrastructure needed to make a good search engine. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_

Honestly, I think that decentralized networks are able to leverage advantages of centralization, like trust, while remaining decentralized enough to still have the advantages from that front too. GitHub and git are actually a good example o

`if-else` for this will get messy quickly the more layers down you want to go. if a is not None and a.b is not None: c = a.b.c else: c = None vs c = a?.b?.c The safe navigation operator is useful enough that begi

I get most of my articles by Feedly and save them there if they are short or time relevant like news, but I use Pocket for any articles which are longer and more in-depth.

Using this workflow for email is pretty interesting. I'm currently relying heavily on snoozing in Google Inbox to manage email tasks, but this takes things a step further. I will say though that $12/mo is too steep compared the up

I opted into the beta for this way back and have been using it for ages, it was pretty surprising finding out it only just went into wide release. Given how useful I found it I'd have thought it would have been released pretty quickly
