    Wonderful article. I was diagnosed with ADHD but it was more of a "here are some pills, go away" deal. I've never had someone put into words the way I feel without my meds so... el…

    Man, I saw this headline and thought "thank god, they'll finally stop hijacking RSS links" :(

    I think about this too. uBlock origin is already running into issues with trackers disguising themselves as first-party, what about when those trackers are genuinely first-party, a…

    I've always assumed this comes from older Amazon shoppers who interpret the emails asking if they can answer questions about some item they ordered as personally asking them to ans…

    As rhinoceraptor said, BetterTouchTool. It has a ton of different trackpad actions/gestures that you can map but this one is by far my most used.

    I hope Apple isn't removing this from their laptop touchpads. I mapped force clicking to ⌘+click to open links in new tabs, it changed my life.

    What's more useful in iOS 13? Genuinely asking, I love learning about new force touch/3D touch features

    I got an email 3 days ago asking me to reset my password due to "system updates" and initially assumed it was just a phishing email. Since gmail is pretty aggressive about filterin…

    It wouldn't be perfect, but there are tons of services that can generate an RSS feed for a specific twitter user. It looks like @stripestatus only tweets when there's actually an i…

    Ran into this one in the wild when it happened, before stripe status had even tweeted about it. I was trying to order doordash and got a "Could not deserialize JSON object" error w…

    (note: everything I'm about to say is just my take on early CS stuff, I don't know Dijkstra or how he thought, these are just conclusions I've personally drawn from reading about t…

    I met a blockchain researcher this summer, I was asking her what sort of stuff she was working on and she started talking about supply chains. Like drexlspivey mentioned there are …

    The press release says 3 billion light years. Probably just a mistake at TC PR: https://breakthroughinitiatives.org/news/22

    I don't really know where I stand regarding college. In high school I was in the "college is a waste of time and money" boat, so much that I probably seemed condescending and annoy…

    I noticed this recently when I was trying to define a note-taking syntax for my math classes. I thought it would be smart to use := for definitions and = for equality, but then I w…

    The first time I rented a server I was looking around my room to think of a cool hostname and saw “yavapai” on my backpack. Since then I’ve just been using names of Native American…

    I have really been enjoying Quantum. It's noticeably faster on almost every page I use daily, or maybe it's just placebo. I have noticed that on pages that are very JS and video he…

    I was wondering the same thing... Maybe this was written a while ago and published recently? Not only has it happened twice but the first detection was over a year ago.

    I think this is slightly different. Minecraft created a EULA that servers have to agree to a few years ago, basically saying you can't charge people for items. A lot of servers get…

    They definitely meant 12 hour days. I got there at 9 and left at 6:30 for the first few days (I hadn't read the handbook) and got an email from my boss about "leaving early"

    My first programming job (actually, just my first job) was technically a 40 hour/week job, but in the employee handbook it said something along the lines of: "The day is typically …
