Never used it so far, but recently came across the NEO keyboard layout [1]. Unfortunately the website is in German only, but just looking at the interactive graphic should give you sufficient information how it looks like. The only German w

Could you name a few examples of ideas we missed? You made me quite curious.

Thanks for the reply! What I just don't understand is, doesn't that mean every company is more or less data driven? I'd assume most companies act according to some key metrics they collect.

Please take my reply with a grain of salt, it's subjective and not backed by any research. Is it really the case that you lean slightly forward when walking forefoot strike? For me it's the opposite, my posture is way more upright

As obvious as it may sound, just buy a pair of barefoot shoes. Go into a store close to you and ask the staff for help choosing the right shoe for you. Definitely get some insoles for the shoes as well (since the sole is usually very thin).

My first pair were the "Gobi 2" from Vivobarefoot. Later on, I also tried Zaqq and another brand I don't recall right now, but didn't like them since the toe box[0] was too small for me. My toes spread significantly sin

Two years ago I bought my first pair of barefoot shoes (no elevated heel, thin and ultra flexibel sole) after listening to an episode of TED Radio Hour, where they featured the talk “Born To Run” and started reading more about the whole ide

They did an AMA on Reddit a few months ago[0]. I remember this AMA in particular because they thoroughly explained why they designed some features in certain ways. Overall they said their target customers are the ones with absolutely no IT

I don't quite get why someone would be a fool to run Shiny. Can you elaborate on that?

I sleep on 2-3 blankets, so a little padding. But too much padding gets uncomfortable for me. Let me try to elaborate what I think I learned during the past year. But take it with a grain of salt, it's just subjective perception: I sle

Your point that sleeping on the floor is "compulsion due to poverty" is something I started to think about alot since sleeping on the floor. It made me realise how much we ("wealthy people") isolate/distant ourselve

You made me laugh, thanks! I do have three blankets (on which I sleep) that I store in my closet during the day. Most of the time I put my bed on the same spot, but sometimes I move it slightly (towards the windows on hot days, etc.), altho

I do have a girlfriend, but she's studying in another city. We see each other almost every weekend and agreed that I visit her place most of the time, since she can't stand sleeping on the floor. It does affect my ability to sleep

I've started to sleep on the floor (better said, on two or three blankets on the floor) a year ago because I've read somewhere it helps with back aches. The first week was weird and uncomfortable, but I got used to it quickly. I&#

Not sure if it's exactly what you're looking for, but I really enjoy 'The Daily Stoic' by Ryan Holiday [0]. There's a page for each day of the year (so ideally you would read a page per day). Each page has a short q

What helps me most is to focus on the steps. This invisible force you describe is nothing that prevents you from doing anything (based on my experience, I can't know how you perceive it), but a step you want to skip, but are not able t

24, how my daily habits (sitting, walking, ...) were the root cause of all my aches and how to adjust them to get rid of most aches. Still learning, but so far the results are incredible.
