I'll just keep disabling everything I don't like insofar as it's possible. I'm focusing on pragmatism. I've used Linux on the desktop in the past, and the amount of work required t…

Joplin supports editing in WYSIWYG with formatting tools and saving markdown on the backend, or swapping to the markdown editor whenever you want to edit that way.

That was a great and touching read. Thanks for the link.

The people on the bus wouldn't be in car navigation mode of Google Maps.

Arrogant and offending, how? Who is it offending? How is it arrogant? Arrogant maybe if it said "the best." But it didn't, it said "ours." Offending maybe if it said "Shit legal sy…

So it's ProductHunt?

I would say it "skwir-rul," but that might be a northeastern regional pronunciation?

I think a certain part of the far left can engage in hate speech against those who they view as intolerant of other's cultures or lifestyles (e.g. transgendered issues), and/or tho…

> "is too extreme" That sounds reasonable and all, but it isn't actually a scientific justification. If the nutritional theories behind a low carb diet are sound, then it would mak…

The other problem is they do it wrong. One of the ones he linked limited to 20g per day, which is OK, but then increased the amount gradually to be "manageable." Uh, that's not tru…

Do you have a link to data saying that is the case? I've always figured that would be the case, but I have never seen a study/meta-study about it. A quick Google didn't yield much …

Wake up, sheeple!

Same here, I would regularly have sync issues. Sometimes I'd see it happen while I was actually in the process of writing still.

Indeed. A basic understanding of the science is all you need. However, the main narrative is that the body is a simply a black box that obeys solely the laws of thermodynamics.

I tried using Taskwarrior with sync to Mirakel last year, as a free replacement once my Todoist trial ended. The sync didn't function correctly, and notifications weren't reliable.…

I'm pretty sure that usually, in the last situation with Arby's, the computer would automatically combine things that are part of a combo and apply the discount.

Yeah, I guess I'd rather search myself if I'm actually considering buying a product. And most of the time, if I'm participating somewhere, I'm not actually looking for purchase adv…

Yeah, it's an RES feature. I never noticed that actually because I keep most features of RES turned off, including Tagging, which I believe that is under, after searching for what …

Awesome! The interface is great, I always found it the best option for looking into ruby source code. Wishing you guys success with your endeavors.

Honestly I'm (selfishly) kind of glad that they're shutting down, as awful as that is. I browse Reddit a lot and the fact that every single time somebody posted a product, there wo…

Here's how it's implemented in Ruby: static int calc_wday(int year, int month, int day) { int a, y, m; int wday; a = (14 - month) / 12; y = year + 4800 - a; m = month + 12 * a - 3;…

What happened to omniref for Ruby's source code? I can't seem to navigate to it from the main site anymore, I can only find it via Google search linking into the site.

How are your touchpad drivers doing? On every Macbook I've used with Linux, the touchpad was terrible, because it was missing palm detection and had awkwardness when using more tha…

As some words of encouragement, it gets way easier. You stop craving the stuff once you stop eating it for a while.

It flies in the face of modern food culture, and it's a difficult decision socially. I think this drives a lot of people. That, and they're unable to remove their associations of "…
