I used to be a subscriber of Delayed Gratification. And I really enjoyed it. But, I’m based in Sweden and it was just too much UK focused stuff for my liking.

This is something that has been studied and is apparently more common when reading out loud. I have this as well. I can read to my kids and at the same time plan the upcoming day. …

Seems to be very dependant on culture at the workplace. Sure, I agree, for when I worried in for example Singapore, I would not agree for Scandinavia

It works for me too. Simple yet effektive.

I don't know. Is there really a signal here when it comes to humans? It seems most of the arguments come from one study? Would be interesting to hear those here at HN that are smar…

I absolutely loved this game. I still think about it often, the story and the characters. I wish there was more games like it. Interesting read!

In my youth I experimented with hallucinogenic drugs. Having shared hallucinations are very easy. It often just requires that someone give you an idea of a hallucination, or someon…

My dream is to be able to run again. Please. Let me run a 10k at least once more in my life. To feel that stillness and freedom and calm that sets in when the brain start going to …

The SGU. There is only one podcast that I always come back to! https://www.theskepticsguide.org/podcasts

I want to: - Hone my motorcycle riding skills. Curves, breaking and the rest. - Learn and manage to do some basic home renovation stuff by myself. - Learn the basics for keeping a …

I don’t know! Think I’ve seen a headline somewhere, but can’t remember where. Quick search should help you :) To me, it’s anecdotal, of course, but I have same sense of being in co…

I don’t agree. They are not saying that. It’s observational. They are saying they see correlation. Your suggested mechanism is plausible, and likely, of course, but that might only…

I am on GLP-1 (very low dose), and I’ve found that it seems to help me moderate my alcohol consumption as well. Maybe some thing like that could also be contributing to the effect.…

I have this exact problem, my colleague does not. I also noticed yawning helped. I gave my old AirPods to my ex :( I miss them.

I diet, on and off. Keeping fat free weight as the highest priority (I don’t want to loose hard earned muscle)! I’ve tried all types of diets. For me, the most important for me is …

Yes. Very similar actually. Most of Europe is increasing spending on military defence.

I love the Switch and will love the Switch 2. But this video feels so cheap. Didn’t enjoy the launch video at all.

According to an interview with people from the company that owned this particular cable (from Swedish media SVT) these things happen by accident sometimes, they said a couple of ti…

Why would a QR be more safe from containing malware than another medium like USB drive? Is it just that the amount of data it holds is more constrained?

Anyone got a link for the actual study paper?

I have IBD. Any sensible doctor will tell you that there seem to be no link between diet and IBD, apart from certain food possibly aggravating symptoms. No use whatsoever to blame …

My first mail in my gmail account is 20 years old. Not sure if that is my oldest account though.

I don’t know. I’m through about 100 cards. I’ll let you know in a couple of months:)

It’s not TP, it’s a Swedish game called När då då. The image is on the back of the card, with the answer. So trying to recall the year, I don’t get to see the picture. But, the pic…

I’ve learned tens of thousands of foreign language words using Anki and have always find that having pictures on the cards help me remember the words. I currently have a (foolish?)…
