One thing that might not be apparent to non-chess players is that an experienced human (particularly a GM or Super-GM) with an engine can often beat the same engine or another engi…

I get that it might treat people differently. This is what works for me, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to take it at all.

Make sure to eat food before you take it, and start with 2.5g twice a day instead of 5g all at once to go easy on your stomach. The food helps slow down how quickly the creatine mo…

Had the exact same thought after reading the abstract… FWIW, delve only appears in the abstract. Having not read the rest of the paper yet, I might give the authors the benefit of …

Forgot to add the link for the Strange Loop archives… https://www.thestrangeloop.com/2021/sessions.html

You could explore the archived content from the Strange Loop conference (or another conference of your choice). Topics run the gamut of what's interesting and trending in "language…

The Flawless Typography Checklist ( https://www.typewolf.com/checklist ) from Typewolf is a great resource that has served me well on multiple projects. It covers the following: - …

Are you familiar with Zapier ( https://zapier.com/ ) or IFTT ( https://ifttt.com/ )? These are the two solutions that came to mind for me after reading your question, though there …

Take a look at the Boxes and Composition articles on Every Layout: - https://every-layout.dev/rudiments/boxes/ - https://every-layout.dev/rudiments/composition/ These articles do a…

The primary reason I'd reach for the Jamstack over WordPress is security. A static website (relying on a headless CMS or a build/deploy process for content) is much more shelf stab…

Yeah, definitely looking forward to some DLC content. Did you try it on Supernova difficulty? I beat it pretty easily on the Hard setting, but had to completely change my playing s…

For me, The Outer Worlds was right there with Witcher 3 as one of the best games this generation. It really does feel like Fallout, but perhaps somewhat less open world when you're…

There’s room for improvement. I’d start with the typography. While it’s not cheap, Typewolf’s Flawless Typography Checklist is an incredible tool for sprucing up designs ( https://…

I wouldn't pick Stylus for a new project, but you can use it with a linter like Stylint ( https://github.com/SimenB/stylint ) to enforce stricter conventions. Totally agree with yo…

In the JavaScript UI library React, useEffect is a hook (recent addition to the library) that allows you to perform side effects in function components. https://reactjs.org/docs/ho…

The answer to whether a single-page app is appropriate for a given project needs to consider product requirements, team structure and available resources. Libraries like React are …

I haven't actually tried it yet, but https://www.notion.so/ caught my eye recently. As far as Confluence goes, I also have problems with search, and missing notifications for comme…

This is essentially the process that Things 3 (I’m not affiliated in any way) for MacOS/iOS uses. It separates adding new tasks (for your inbox) from the step of organizing and sch…

Here's the gist of it as I read it... the current list is a topic you want to learn, and as you're working on it, everything that you don't understand is added to the current list.…

Engineers shouldn't be reporting to product managers. I'm not sure what's going on in your team, but it sounds like there may be some wider organizational dysfunction.
