adamhearn··on Serenity notes: E2E encrypted notes

adamhearn··on Ask HN: Do You Take Nootropics?
Anti oxidants are sort of a free lunch. Reducing inflammation that is very common will tremendously boost brain power.
adamhearn··on Ask HN: Do You Take Nootropics?
I take quite a variety of supplements and nootropics. I started experimenting several years ago.

I haven’t taken anything insane, but the biggest thing I have noticed is being able to be more consistently productive. Your sleep metrics dictate your day’s performance.

Coffee + L-Theanine is beginner friendly and very good.

For improved performance also avoid inflammation. Vitamin C, Fish Oil, and NAC can be taken throughout the day for a noticeable cognitive boost. Avoiding sugars and artificial things is very helpful.

For information on all sorts of things, Leo and Longevity has great blog articles and YouTube channel.

adamhearn··on I almost quit caffeine in one year
I would be very interested to take a look at your DNA and see what SNPs you have that might cause this. Very interesting.

The only extension I truly need before I use safari again.

adamhearn··on Libre Barcode Project

adamhearn··on How I built a keyboard/video/mouse switch for my two 4k monitors
It’s always about the money. USB A ports are either really cheap, or manufacturing the enclosure with the same port on both sides is cheaper. Could also be that the enclosure is a reused enclosure...
adamhearn··on Boston Dynamics' Handle Robot Recreated with Raspberry Pi
Not a bad idea. But I think the issue would be durability and quality of the Chinese parr’s.
adamhearn··on Show HN: My notes on Working with Go
If you are so wise, what commit message should I use if I just changed the filename?
adamhearn··on TypeScript 4.0
As a new developer, typescript is awesome for me. When developing for web, there seems to be all sorts of “types” that I don’t get know or fully understand. By forcing types, I can be sure the data I am passing is what I want.

If you don’t pay the child workers in your military factories, you sure can save a lot of money.
adamhearn··on Ask HN: Anyone a social entrepreneur, i.e. placing social impact above profit?
The best way to do this for privacy concerned individuals would be on device through DNS. On iPhone or Android that means an app would need to be built.

My dream VPN app allows me to choose my protocol, DNS adblocking, multi provider integration, and VPN tunneling. Not sure what is all possible on iOS though. Passepartout is what I currently use, but it doesn’t support wireguard.

adamhearn··on PyIDM – Python open-source alternative to Internet Download Manager
Maybe it’s just me, but I find JDownloader2 to be very scammy feeling. It feels like adware software.

However, it truly is the most powerful download manager I’ve found. Combined with multi part downloads, I can easily max out my internet speed.

adamhearn··on Ask HN: Can someone suggest an open source lightweight alternative to Chrome?
Off the top of my head I know you can reenable specific things such as JavaScript for individual web pages. Probably the same is possible with fonts.
adamhearn··on Reverse Engineering for Beginners [pdf]
Is there a tool to check for submissions of the same link?

Not just the site, but I mean the same link.

adamhearn··on One hour of slow breathing changed my life
James Nestor’s podcast episodes with Ben Greenfield and Joe Rogan both are very interesting. Obviously there is some material crossover between the two, but I found unique things from each.

I really the breathwork will become the new fad, but for good reason. It’s amazingly powerful.

adamhearn··on Show HN: An Aesthetically Pleasing Arch Linux Distro
Try viewing it from mobile. It only gets worse.
adamhearn··on 1SecondPainting: Generate abstract paintings in one click
Technically it is possible to generate that randomly, no?

Obliviously this site is fake, but that’s besides the point.
