butterlettuce··on Drinking 2-3 cups of coffee a day tied to lower dementia risk
I really don’t appreciate BigCoffee pushing their anxiety juice on me.

Ever since I stopped drinking that mini-panic-attack potion, my heart hasn’t skipped a beat, my sleep has been great and I don’t feel tired all the time.

Hopefully one day people wake up (haha) and dump it the way we’ve dumped cigarettes.

butterlettuce··on Ask HN: How do you fight YouTube addiction and procrastination? I'm struggling
You could use a firefox extension called BlockTube. You can still access Youtube but it’ll hide certain videos based on channel name, keywords in videos, etc.

For example, I have “Trump” or “Musk” to block any video with these keywords in the video title.

If you click on a share link video and those keywords appear, it’ll just show a black screen.

Probably because OpenAI is the best at this than any other player in the game. They’re on their way to replacing Google as the #1 search engine. Instead of “google it” it’s going to be “gpt it”, and we all know who “gpt” is.

butterlettuce··on Tires Don't Work the Way You Think They Do [video]
I never thought those metal layers in a car tire work similarly to the simple spoke design of a bike tire. I just assumed air pressure did all the work and the metal layers were there to resist sharp objects as much as possible.

Thank you thunderbong, very cool.

All that needs to change. The glue to the US economy needs to be Americans. We have the best universities in the world but we decide to invest in foreign students instead of our own for wage reasons.

These folks are stealing our jerbs.
