Why replace something deterministic with something non-deterministic? I can no longer tell someone "just google it" because I don't actually know what will come up...

Its funny you say thay it's the browser slowing you down on your PC. I have an MBP from 2011 and the browser (Safari) is the only thing it can still run extremely well.

This is not cynical - it's a common/smart play with little downside taking advantage of a bad situation (e.g., like the CEO being hated in general by the community).

I was going to buy a Pixelbook Go since it's a well-made laptop and I like the simplicity of ChromeOS. Then I realized that the first app I'd install is Firefox since it's vastly superior when it comes to ad-blocking especial

Is it "heroic" to enter a war with no official support from the West then call on the West to help you? This isn't a movie. This is people dying because he won't give up his right-wing dream of a "free Ukraine"

Ditto all of the above. The book doesn't ask anybody to take all the rules and apply them daily at an extreme. It doesn't ask the reader to remove their free thought. It's more "think about these things as you go through

But how much is it worth to Australia? There have probably been at least 107 Killian Instagram shots taken there, no? Also, hard to trust an article that misspelled the city's name...

Food... or fresh/unpolluted water. For food, I think it's a little easier but societies that have a hard time producing would have to adjust what they eat and how they eat it. Also, less meat, less red wine, more beer and more pot

Love the place, à must visit, BUT, after taking my girlfriend for her birthday, beware leaving there at night. She was very uncomfortable even walking to the car. DTLA in general is quite iffy at night.

Hoping this does wonders for the FreeCiv feature release cycle and engage frondend devs obsessed with good UI/UX. Will support for sure. I fantasize about one very big civ game that lasts forever a la EVE Online.

Best computer I ever got was a used bottom spec Lenovo T-series I gave my sister. It's 8 years old. My new top-spec T-series had to be returned to Lenovo twice for factory faults.

The debate is all about goals. The vast majority of athletic goals outside of bodybuilding and power lifting can be achieved with bodyweight and one kettlebell. The choice of that kb depends on your goals again. I have a 35lb and it's

Yes, unless you crosspost to Instagram or Facebook and tell people in your videos about all three. Or is that frowned upon at YouTube and/or monitored if you have a high viewership channel?

What's a gym? COVID made me forget. COVID also gave me more time to do things especially without the commute. What did I learn to do with 0 équipment? 1) Want to lose fat? You can run outside. You can also swim outside if you're l

I'd err towards this direction too based on the megacorp I work at. Curious if you have ballpark #s to how much less companies are hiring.

More thrill to get the content, more dopamine hit once you get to the goal, the more likely it is to be more addictive. If it's not forbidden, it's not nearly as exciting.

I appreciate the warning and see it as having been done in a way that is not judgemental. If the book was really graphic or even really heartbreaking, I'd appreciate a warning as well. Moreover, I told two gay friends about the potenti

This post nicely summarizes the game. The effects of short-term tactics are meant to show once Trump is unable to get re-elected for whatever reason. At that point, some fool will get into power and will have to handle the aftermath. If my

I have to agree with this. It's an essential skill. There are great courses on LinkedIn and Coursera for free (even if you don't get the respective subscriptions).

Until mermaid comes up with the vast list of diagrams one can create in Plant UML, I don't see it as operating in the same weight class. E.g., wireframes, basic Gantts, AWS diagrams, component diagrams with graphviz (thought I confess

You could customize a style for your diagrams and then include it via a one-liner in every diagram you create. This also allows for branding of diagrams. Personally, I'm a huge fan of the simplicity and whenever I present such a diagra

Morning thought: if I was a marketer I'd try to confirm my hypothesis of an "I care about this topic" window with the most recent BLM movement. Will it also expire from the world's attention in the same time frame or wil
