    10126 here. I wouldn't have guessed it was that low.

    Also try wearing merino wool socks. It seems counterintuitive to put wool on your sweaty feet, but they're quite comfortable and they help you avoid that "clammy feet" feeling when…

    Speaking from personal experience, people react to different SSRIs differently. I took a popular one that had significant side effects without a whole lot of benefit, and so I stop…

    Nobody should take this as medical advice, but from my own experience, nothing has made a bigger difference in my sleep quality than supplementing with magnesium glycinate. I didn'…

    I also loved magical thinking. Even though I haven’t experienced anything close to losing a spouse, it was a wonderful read.

    As I understand it, it's really only abusable by people who don't have ADHD. It's a stimulant, similar to cocaine in that way. In people with ADHD, it's calming.

    I used VSS in the 90s as well, it was a nightmare when working in a team. As I recall, Microsoft themselves did not use VSS internally, at least not for the majority of things.

    I don’t want Notes to become a Markdown editor. I think that would be confusing for the majority of users. What I would like is for it to understand Markdown syntax and just conver…

    I never used Pocket but was a long time user of Instapaper before moving to Readwise Reader. My experience has been that many links, other than the most recent ones, are dead.

    I wonder if this is why Fusion 360 is so slow to start. It's by far the slowest app on my relatively modern M1 MacBook Pro.

    I’d never heard of Schiele until yesterday when I was reading about an actor on a show I was watching. I’m not really an art buff but his work is quite interesting (if a bit distur…

    He bankrupted a casino. I’m not sure how you even manage to do that.

    He's fantastic. I still suck at drywall work, but I suck way less after watching a bunch of his videos.

    I am in no way a “car guy” but I’ve always thought that the early to mid 1980s BMWs were beautiful. I don’t have the kind of budget (or garage space) to own a car that isn’t a dail…

    My perception is that many on the right bought into conspiracies about Covid and the Covid vaccines. That led to them consuming more general antivax content, as well as an overall …

    I think what you mean to say is that you like what doge has claimed to have found so far. Unfortunately it doesn’t hold up to even the slightest scrutiny.

    The word evil is a bit overused, but in the case of Stephen Miller it fits like a glove. I’ve said since the beginning that that saving grace (if there is one) of Trump’s first ter…
