Do you still drink water when you skip creatine? Being dehydrated causes headaches, so it may be the extra water intake that's helping and not the creatine.

Do they? Not necessarily making an argument for or against the original point, but to me airports epitomize "slow and tedious". My hunch is that they also don't handle nearly the v…

I love the idea. Just the other day, I noticed my thinking was so hijacked by distractions while building something (with AI help) that I started writing in a notebook to stay on t…

Love to hear it, thanks for sharing. I only wish there were more parenting "tricks" like this that gave similar quality of life improvements.

If you saw our baby, you wouldn't be worried at all that he's being underfed. Maybe the opposite. They'll want to eat every 3-4 hours during the day for sure; at night they can and…

In our case(s), it was something that required conscious effort. And when we did that... it worked. It honestly didn't seem like it would at first, but then it does. Again, n=2 for…

To be clear, they don't eat/feed at night either. The baby is in a separate room from us and we don't see or hear him most nights (95%+) between 7pm-6am. He's around 8.5 months old…

FWIW, and understanding that individual babies do differ, most babies can sleep through the night (10-12 hours) by 3-4 months old. Check out the books "Twelve Hours' Sleep by Twelv…

I'll check them out - thanks for the recommendation!

For sure! We ended up learning this the hard way. We moved into this house partly bc it had an extra ~acre of space beyond the main "yard" which was starting to turn into a forest.…

Awesome! Curious to hear if it ripens good fruit for you. In case it's interesting: people normally grow them from cuttings to make sure that the trees will 1. be female (males hav…

I got into fig (and since then, more broadly, fruit) cultivation. Figs have a rich history, lots of variety, and there are very active online (and in-person) communities where you …

Agree with sibling comment as someone who used Zen for many months, maybe as long as a year or two. It constantly breaks and often stays broken in small but fundamentally important…

Just noting: it's interesting to see the term "lethal trifecta" used here given the relatively recent coinage relating to LLM security: https://simonwillison.net/2025/Jun/16/the-le…

Sometimes Apple's malicious compliance is in service of (or less generously: aligned with) users' interests. I didn't know about the added fees that parent mentioned, so I apprecia…

Sounds like you're talking about Apple disabling Advanced Data Protection in the UK? https://support.apple.com/en-us/122234 Weird take to shift the blame to Apple for that.

I've read many posts and comments at this point that describe LLMs in very reductionist language. Eg, from the article: > They’re a trillion numbers in a trenchcoat; not logical, i…

Besides nitpicking, even your original point isn't even true. You cannot transplant a 100 year old tree (which has not been constrained in size dramatically) and expect it to survi…

IMO (re zoom behavior): if you make a new tab, it should add a new tab as normal and stay zoomed in. the tab bar (of the currently zoomed in panel) would still be at the top while …

Hey, this looks seriously awesome. Love the ideas here, specifically: the programmability (I haven't tried it yet, but had been considering learning tmux partly for this), layered …

I think the only people they're calling "dodgy" are the ones offering these AI tools, and not the people using them.

Thanks for sharing your process and config! I went on a pretty similar journey, though I've been on macOS the whole time. I've gotta say, Aerospace is one of my favorite pieces of …

League works on macOS just fine, I played yesterday. Vanguard is buggy (it occasionally quits the client after I finish a game), but the game generally works and has for at least s…

I'll reply here in good faith: I just don't see how you connect those dots, or why this has anything to do with gender. > women have asserted themselves in the workforce Agree. > y…

I changed the video link to an updated version where he goes into much more detail. You don't need any lure (I didn't use any), but you can see in the updated link that he places t…
