"But satisfaction brought him back."

In modern Vim (with netrw), you can type `gx` when the cursor is over a URL to open it in your browser.

Great read. One of my favourite quotes is "motivation follows action". Often times I've found myself loath to do something, but once I start "revving up" (at work, it might be star…

Thank you! I'll keep an eye out for those.

I tried to take the test—but the fifth time I pressed "next" it gave me a 404. The key to faking a real smile is in wrinkling the eyes.

> They need to make money somehow. Yes, because their profit margins are that low (!). Considering Apple charges you £500 for a phone and £1000 for a laptop, I'd expect a bit more …

Alcohol, plastics (which leech from containers into the liquid they contain), pesticides (on fruits, vegetables)—there are a host of environmental factors that reduce our testoster…

Funny, it reminded me more of the episode "Be Right Back".

If only the Nokia of old were still around.

Agreed, although it's interesting to see the disassemblies. Python is a language about readability and conciseness first, performance second. I would have liked to have seen `map` …

Adding my own two cents here— - You can no longer put your phone into silent from the volume slider - You can no longer put your phone into vibrate or silent from the power menu - …

Good tips. Getting in the habit of explicitly searching (/) instead of scrolling is another one. On the subject of using fFtT (and other motions), there's a plugin I quite like tha…

I've always heard a lot of this is due to improper running technique, since shoe technology shifted to a heavily-padded heel. This in turn made people more likely to land on the he…

Relationships are an investment. It requires some effort but the return on that effort is incredibly high. As I get older I realize how valuable my friendships all are.

It's because you weren't eating any fats. On a low-carb diet, your body uses fat as its energy source. If you don't eat any fat, your body will not willingly consume your body fat.…

Thanks! This plays nicely with my confirmation bias; I've been on a ketogenic diet since March and I've felt much better because of it.

Interesting. What studies did you stick with?

I've posted this on previous ad blocking threads, and I'll post it again because I think it's very relevant— > "Adblock without the plus" isn't the original Adblock (from which Adb…

It's a remake of the original Abe's Oddysee.

FTL is a bit of an outlier in the sense that they were fully funded. If you're an independent studio without that kind of money, you're still at a publisher (or other financer)'s m…

:x (It's the same as :wq, but one character shorter.)

Which episode was that? I'm struggling to remember it.
