    If you click through to the experiment, they say that it's actually called '"Ganzfeld imagery" (Allefeld et al., 2011; Sumich et al., 2018)'. Searching for that led me to this Wiki…

    But it's not just about work/home balance. It's also about being in a financially sound position, in a strong enough relationship with the "right" person, to be able to have a chil…

    I hope this is the case, however a lower barrier to entry also means those who could afford to clear the old barriers can come into this new space, leveraging the new technology in…

    And almonds don't lactate. Do you call almond milk "almond-flavoured water"? There's a reason people use existing "technically incorrect" product names to refer to replacement prod…

    I agree. If it's not actionable, then it's just adding to the doom. But not all of it is not actionable. And you definitely can't take actions based on information you don't have. …

    I take your point, but I disagree. Ignoring the news, and just expecting the "important" stuff to magically penetrate is a great way to live in wilful ignorance, and/or let people/…

    I've sort of been doing something similar for a few years now where, each day I will document the highlight of my days. It's been a really interesting experience and it's useful fr…

    I've been using a@b.com just because it's quick & easy to type. I just looked it up, and it seems all the single-letter .com domains are reserved, so it should be fine.

    I tried it a loooong time ago, for C, and I couldn't get the hand of it, even though I had used IntelliJ a bunch. I've heard it's much better than when they launched it, but our bu…

    They're talking specifically about an Android app. Almost none of the apps you referred to are available on Android, let alone with the features you mentioned. As for the Markdown …

    Thank you for mentioning this. I wrote my own bash script to do something similar ages ago, but I'm betting this will be much less janky.
