Two words: spaced repetition

25923. I'm going to bed now.

Okay, after 30 mins of attempts, I managed to get 8600. I could probably go higher if I tried.

They offer a 7 day refund period

Mysticism with focus on a higher power (deity) has been tried and tested. Why re-invent the wheel? The existence of a higher power does not contradict the more rational modern science, and vice versa. They are both tools that we can use to enrich our lives.

A lot of people in the finance world prefer native apps to web apps. It's bizarre.

Unrelated, but the other day, I searched something on DDGo on Firefox mobile in private mode, and a few hours later, I see a targeted ad related to that search.

Whats the deal with that? The only extension I have installed is Ublock mobile.

This is only slightly faster than hitting the Windows key, typing "Notepad", and hitting Enter.

Would be cool if it opened a single "notes.txt" document instead. That way you could bring up your notes, append what you want, and save/close it with a single hotkey.

Being in nature and sunlight is arguably one of the few truly enjoyable activities on this planet

You may be thinking of Tardigrades.

I'd argue that modern technology takes us out of the moment more than anything.

Cloud saves maybe? Those can take up a lot of space.

Yep, unfortunately I haven't been able to use the laser yet because of this bug

Don't do banking on your gaming PC

When they say 5k lines, I'm assuming they mean 5k lines of meaningful code. 5k lines with whitespace changes, linting etc. would be impossible to meaningfully review

I think if a review is very large, the owner of the code should do a code walkthrough for the whole team.

What's the problem with a monk sharing wisdom on social media? Somebody has to spread the word.

Yes, reddit should honestly just be blacklisted from HN

Wow that website loads surprisingly fast

> who said anything about hardcore pornography

Well the main article is about PornHub which is a hardcore pornography site, so...

I have no problem with sex-Ed for kids

In what world is sex-Ed comparable to hardcore pornography?

If you scroll enough, you'll find the trolls

When I need to respond on my phone, I usually won't have a Bluetooth keyboard lying around

Maybe CHIP would suit the Americans better

In my experience, anything computers related = "IT guy" or "Computer Guy"

I think it's better to state the field you're in rather than your job title. For example, if you work for a bank, say "finance".

Same. Call me weird, but I actually enjoy reviewing and reading other people's code, because I'm good at spotting errors. When I code from scratch, I suffer from the programmer's equivalent of writer's block.

Are you failing at the CV screen?

Yep, accessibility is my concern. Think about the most vile, extreme porn you've seen. Now multiply that vileness by 10. That content is just as easy to access (via the Internet) as some innocent nude selfie.

Again, I think adults should be able to watch what they want. The concern is for the children who are given unrestricted access to the Internet from a young age.

It's the opposite. Only the rich will be able to afford AI-free spaces. Everyone else will become an AI-assisted drone.

Why? When the latter is just as effective but also much quicker?
