    Right. I actually do the inverse of the OP's advice. As much as possible, pooping is the ONLY time I use the phone. If the only time you budget for mindfulness is a couple minutes …

    One third of porn consumers are women. They are hardly immune.

    Everyone's tolerance and ideal routine is different. For me, it's: - One cup of coffee in the morning, optional tea while it's still light out - Sunlight exposure within a half hou…

    Well, let's give the author the benefit of the doubt and try not to regard his article or its ideas in a subtractive fashion either; there's more here than the headline. There's a …

    I think a lot of it has to do with the desire and pressure to publish as fast as possible. Online, EVERYTHING is rushed and even published before the facts are known. The story may…

    We intentionally use both Codex and Claude on our team so that we can compare and contrast. We are reasonably serious about delivering work that has been reviewed and tested with h…

    Willpower's not the solution. When we isolated cocaine from the coca leaf for the first time, the world pretty much went insane. In those first years people were injecting it into …

    In the 90s I knew a guy in high school who walked around the school in a black trenchcoat with portable speakers tucked inside that were continuously playing Western movie themes. …

    Why does it need to grow? Not trying to be a curmudgeon here, I'm just trying to explain the philosophy because I think it's totally alien to some people. And I mean actually this …

    They realize it's "unworkable for 90% of users" and they don't care. Part of the Indieweb philosophy, like Libre software, is to "scratch your own itch" - no one's paying you. You …

    This is purely my experience but the difference between reading a good book vs consuming any other kind of media has been night vs day. I don't think any long article has thoroughl…

    Far be it from me to defend Big Food, but let's play devil's advocate for a moment, just facts with no LLM slop. Hyperbole aside they created a new product category which has less …

    We launched an AI feature and there was immediate blowback in the form of negative feedback. We then rebranded it as "Advanced Search," kept the sparkle icon and everything, litera…

    Thanks guys! It's happening! We can see it! The future is somewhat legible and in it we don't all die! (Well we do, but mostly for the usual reasons) We just gotta keep getting out…

    Honestly I am burned out on public discussion of AI. There are so many hot, low info takes on both sides. All the dumb stuff revolves around this imbecilic notion that AI will take…

    It needs to be said that this article was written by the Browser Choice Alliance, which is funded by another convicted monopolist, namely Google. So this is a bit of the pot callin…

    Yes 100% this. A lot of people keep talking about how OpenAI and Anthropic will need to raise their prices. What is less discussed is how they CAN'T raise their prices because comp…

    My parents were broke. I grew up on food stamps. Mom worked retail. Dad had a few good years, his business went bust and we spent a decade below the poverty line. It was a public h…

    I essentially owe my career to two great strokes of luck. The first was that my father purchased a PC in the early 1990s to help out with his self-employed publishing business, and…

    I ended up at the same conclusion as you guys but implemented in yet another way: my home office has a desk for digital work, and a 'study nook' for analog (mostly reading, but it …

    Seems far less scary to me than, say, building an electrical grid in a cold climate, where if it fails for a few days people start to die. Oh wait...

    While I agree, I think there's a better way to frame this with the public. We don't need to bring in pedo references. That looks very unhinged to most people. There's already a lot…

    I'm no fan of car culture but I think to say it's the primary cause of living a sedentary life at home is an overstatement. I deliberately moved somewhere where I could walk to eve…
