    Man, this looks great! A fortuitous thing for me as well, as I've been starting to look for a trainer like this just know? Been playing the guitar for a long time for now and I kno…

    So then, what are you suggesting? Science bad, Education bad, then what is good?

    A clusterfuck. Basic infrastructure don't arise from a couple of smart contracts you know? Just look up everybody who's tried.

    It could, or it could not. It also could be boredom, bad diet, too much or too little exercise, lack of sleep, overexhaustion, underlying medical condition, or just a phase and so …

    Well, I can only say things that helped me. I'd have fun with a game, namely Typing of the Dead, and then I'd invest into a keyboard with no labels, say a Das Keyboard Ultimate ( h…

    To my knowledge the only recent project using ternary was the cryptocurrency/token IOTA, but even they dropped it. I don't think there would be any gain from ternary unless the har…

    At what point does a vaccine stop being experimental? I mean, we've got plenty of proof that they work.

    Yeah, Everything is fantastic. I've mapped Win+Alt+Space to activate Everything (Settings > Keyboard), then set "Clear Window on Execute" (Settings > General) to on. Now a simple k…

    "Everything", https://www.voidtools.com Fast indexing, instant search, does regex and other advanced searches. For file managers, maybe Total Commander or One Commander.

    Oh man... let's hope it's fixable. I know the Webb is going to be out there soon, but a) it's not out there yet b) I think NASA could still squeeze a hell of a lot of mileage out o…

    Cloudflare, that is 1.1.1.1 or one.one.one.one if DNS lookup is needed.

    Well, the book is a proper tome, but the section on Stoics is very concise (as is rest of the book, really), so I'd go for "A History of Western Philosophy" by Bertrand Russell. Th…

    Why people are not ordering? The people who care already have one, or they've taped over it anyway. The rest don't probably care.

    The article recommends watching the video by Matt Parker, and so do I. Great refresher on probability (or luck, if you will) For convenience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ko3Td…

    You've had an easy computing life if that's the worst you had to deal with. But it's not like there are no alternatives, say, PathFinder. Kind of like people used to say, "Internet…

    I've used irssi ( https://irssi.org ) for years. Have a session running on a shell host under tmux. Works perfectly for me on a desktop and a mobile ssh client.

    Not really, the basic Python install has a lot of things ready to use without any external libraries.

    It's missing Oracle Cloud's free tier. Now, I don't like Oracle, their goings about with Java or their database (fortunately currently I don't have to maintain any of those), but t…

    I'm not a particularly experienced or good Lisp programmer, I can customize Emacs, but that's pretty much it. However, I think this article is a bit skewed and not highlighting thi…

    OSS needs more UI/UX people, and I think Tantacrul is fantastic for this. His twitter ( https://twitter.com/Tantacrul ) and youtube ( https://www.youtube.com/user/martinthekearykid…

    I've been using Mullvad as well for the last year or so. No problems here. Alongside the OpenVPN configs you can get WireGuard as well.
