> Also, I sleep with a CPAP machine, and I've found that it's enabled me to get by with only five to six hours of sleep, allowing me to be productive during most of my waking hours. Before my CPAP, I was sleeping 9-10 hours a day just to feel normal. It's weird, but my CPAP machine has been the biggest contributor to my productivity gains in the last few years.

This is my first time hearing about CPAP. Has anyone else tried this?

Jet.com was surprising generous too when I chatting with support.

Thanks for suggesting Brave. Just downloaded it, and it seems very well put together. Interesting how that plan to pay you to view ads.

I started 2 years ago around 32, but I did mostly audiobooks. So far I have finished about 90 books, chosen mostly by Amazon/Goodreads/Audible ratings. I take a few lines of notes for each book while listening to help me remember what the book was about later.

I ran into this site before from all the compensation discussions on https://www.teamblind.com

Vs 4 insane AIs, I floated my command center to an island with 2 mineral patches and produced mass battlecruisers =D

Maybe they can start with 1-2x and then work their way up to 4-5x after awhile.

Training 4-5x a week is within your control. Winning the lottery is not.

I get up every weekday morning at 5 to 6am to do a spin or group fitness class and lift 1 to 2 times per week Arnold superset style. I'm loving this lifestyle. (I guess the gym being Equinox helps.)

I'm shocked it's not caused by all the crappy diet that is still so mainstream: sugary foods, government food pyramid made by lobbyists, meat overdose, etc.

I read in another article that Apple usually is number one in the holiday quarter.

Yay for The Untethered Soul. I would add:

  Adversaries into Allies: Master the Art of Ultimate Influence
  Leadership and Self-Deception: Getting Out of the Box 
  Rejection Proof: 100 Days of Rejection, or How to Ask Anything of Anyone at Anytime
  Building a StoryBrand: Clarify Your Message So Customers Will Listen
  The Surrender Experiment: My Journey into Life's Perfection

I also wonder why are humans wasting resource like this. Like all this compute power could be used towards curing cancer or something.

Thanks for the suggestion! I’ve added it to my Audible queue.

I had a BMW and drove fewer miles than that. The maintenance alone for random things breaking (run flat tires punctured, oil leaks, breaks, battery, etc.) was like $1k/yr. Depreciation was also huge over 6 years.

Here's one trick to get out of a "suffering state" and get to a "beautiful state":

Silently in your head, send blessings (joy, happiness, love, inner peace, etc.) to people that you encounter in life and people that are playing a part in your thoughts. Do this whenever you feel the oncoming of an unnecessary negative emotion.

After 30 to 90 days, a new habit will be formed. And, probably, a new default peaceful internal state.

I took the Udacity Deep Learning Nanodegree after a masters in CS. It was really fun, and I would highly recommend it.

I usually use https://www.fakespot.com/ to double check. I think a lot of sellers buy fake reviews without knowing about this service.

Hired.com seems like another option. I've gotten some pretty good remote only responses (even though I wasn't looking for remote).

Watching them throw seat cushions as prizes was funny.

The article states the increase in price is because "supply in natural diamonds has peaked and due to strong Asian demand".

Opening the web link with an Incognito Window gets around the paywall in Chrome.

Exercise a lot. Practice yoga. Be detached from the uncontrollable outcomes and focus all your energy on doing what you can do.

I’ve been making myself get up around 6am to take 1 or 2 classes at the gym. After work, I go for an hour for yoga or just watch something on my iPad Pro while walking on an inclined treadmill.

I think the key is to sleep early and get up early. Also, watching shows at the gym instead of at home helps.

I recently started going to the gym for yoga, cardio classes, or just walking on an inclined treadmill for about 2 hours per day. This has been the best I've felt in life. I don't mind doing this for the rest of my life. The quieting of mind from yoga really helps me step back and see things from a higher viewpoint (like not being stuck in a local minimum).

Try reading "The Untethered Soul" by Michael Singer and/or "Letting Go" by David Hawkins. Depression could be partly due to an acquired habit of always paying attention to fear based thoughts (like lacking xyz), which came from evolution. The cure is to raise the emotional level of thoughts to love for self and compassion for others (by having compassion for others, you give it to yourself). Another cure is to not pay attention to the chattering of the mind. If you wrote down all the chattering of the mind, you may find that >90% of them are useless. Paying attention to the chattering brings more useless chattering.

All this sounds new age, but it works.

It seems like a lot of my younger friends are using a "juul", which has a ton of nicotine in it. I'm kind of scared for them.

Could this done in order to cover the tracks of some illegal activity like a bank robbery? Seems like something out of Ocean's 11.

The backend is missing Java/Scala frameworks. Also, maybe Hack can be added to the PHP branch.

Funny how they said: "With typical French - and scientific - caution ..."

I've found OneNote to be very good for journaling and plans. I have a tab for daily journaling for each year, and I have a tab for my current long term goal with steps broken down.
