    Slightly off topic: Does anybody know how to remove something from AutoSuggestion? It's been more than a year—and every time I type "Good night" it still suggests my ex-girlfriend.…

    Private is not the same thing as for profit. A non-profit is a private entity. They are not part of the public sector. In fact, much healthcare was delivered like so pre-WW2. Still…

    Have you considered purchasing your own weight rack? Rogue sells a few pre-made one's that fold into the wall and occupy little space. It's a larger upfront investment but you can …

    2 suggestions. 1- Have kids on your own via a sperm donor. Lori Gottlieb details her journey doing just so in the excellent book, “¿Maybe you should talk to someone?” 2- Just have …

    My personal opinion is that prostitution by any person under 25 or maybe even 30 should be illegal. Once your brain is mature—sure, go ahead and do it. My experience with former pr…

    So wrong. One of the most popular Chinese movies is “San Guo” or “3 Kingdoms”. This is historical fiction. There was a battle then just as there is still a battle now…in Taiwan. Fr…

    I’ve seem 2 or 3 comments citing “no perceptible difference” in double blind studies on the topic of taste. For such flavorful a subject, I find that there are so many N=1 cases su…

    When you are way in over your head, the way out is to push through the dip. A startup will have that moment. A theatre production will have that moment. Pretty much everything will…

    It probably isn’t weird to think about returning the kids…but it is certainly weird to do it. More than weird, it is disrespectful, cowardly, and inconsiderate. When you decide to …

    I still love Objective-C. And to me—I'm so amazed that Apple added "Property Syntax" and "Properties". It's pretty easy to do much of this with Macros (which could have been baked …

    Would love to know which countries don’t actually haze their doctors. Here in DR docs get hazed out the Wazoo-being told they don’t have the status to look at the head surgeon in t…

    Barcelona 92 was the Olympics that most benefited a city. What a wonderful city! And amazing port / beach transformation.

    Plus one on health. Probably the last thing I’ll stop paying for is my trainer / coach. (I am doing gymnastics) My life has picked up so much momentum after that. A failed relation…

    Would disagree on all services being of inferior quality. I think WeChat is better than WhatsApp. You can do everything and yet—it is still a straightforward, easy to use, Chat app…

    The worst thing about AirPods—specifically the AirPods Pro is that they provoke tinnitus. I can’t use them. And so it goes…

    Because you’re a student: join a sports club. Exercise cured SOOOOOO much. Now, if you’re a little older and have some money you can do what I did: hire a personal trainer. The soc…

    Dude, get off Upwork. Do not do any work for them. Invest that time and build your name on your own or some other platform. Take your clients off Upwork. Would love to see what you…

    So I use GNUstep and I really like it. It is not an Apple emulator—it is an OPENstep emulator and so it implements the amazing Cocoa API and many mac/iOS frameworks can be used ser…
