tim2387··on Thoughts on Forth Programming
Thanks for posting this. It brought back good memories. Forth was my favorite language in the 80s.

tim2387··on Limit everyone to one upvote per day?
It would discourage me from using HN.
tim2387··on Twitter just changed design
They did and, after my first look, I don't like it. It seems more primitive and much less polished.

tim2387··on Ask HN: How do I acheive the best battery life/performance on my iPhone?
An Apple battery expert told how he thinks it should be done. Use the battery down to about 20%. Charge it back to about 80%. Once every few months (I think he said around three months), charge it to 100%, drain it completely to where the phone shuts down, and charge it back to 100%. He said this "informs" the system with the battery's performance limits. Then, go back to the 20% to 80% pattern.

tim2387··on Ask HN: How do you lose weight?
I lose weight with a low-carb diet and intermittent fasting. I eat only between the hours of 11 AM - 7 PM.

I have lost 32 pounds, so far. I hope to lose at least 17 more.
