In my briefcase I always carry a Leatherman Wave. For personal defense I like the Spyderco Matriarch 2.

I already tried Emacs in Termux but I was too slow and did crash while trying to do some things.

Nowadays I simply use JuiceSSH and mosh to connect to my main computer. I would like to have Emacs in my smartphone even while I don't have mobile signal though.

Just bought a Dex Station. If Emacs runs well enough then it will be a lifesaver.

My anecdotal experience is that I can get better uptime using Windows rather than Linux in consumer computers. The i915 bug made me end up using a Windows host with Debian in a virtual machine, just so I could trust that my computer would not freeze every few weeks.

With older computers (T420, X201) and Xeon servers I got months and even years uptime. Maybe I just got unlucky with my recent acquisitions or maybe the complexity of the new hardware together with the lack of support for Linux means that these kind of bugs are and will become more prevalent in consumer hardware.

Modern hardware is unreliable, especially under GNU/Linux. Ryzen didn't give me any problem under Windows, but GNU/Linux.. the same can be said of Skylake/Broadwell i915 gpu driver. Both my Thinkpad T450s and X250 are not able to get past a few weeks uptime while using Debian. Under Windows they can go on for months.

I would wait. I bought a 1800x Ryzen and had some stability problems under Debian Buster which disappeared after a BIOS update, but I'm not compiling large projects continuously nor it has been up for a lot of time (maybe 3 days uptime? Got the new computer two weeks ago.. when it gets to 100+ days uptime I will be happy)

Under Windows it worked flawlessly even with the old BIOS.

The fact that our brains have "bugs" and biases has seen a significantly increased interest, so I suppose that methods to solve those bugs has seen an increased interest too.

My opinion is that the popularity of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy has brought the attention to Stoicism. I reached Stoicism by reading about CBT, and started reading about CBT because I wanted a proven tool to improve and modify my psychological state.

I would not call myself Stoic but there is a lot of wisdom there. I particularly like Seneca and Epictetus. The best modern book for me is "A New Stoicism" by Lawrence C. Becker.

Ummm. What does open access to scientific papers has to do with what you're stating?

Take a look at TMLewin and CTShirts. I think they offer the best value in shirts. Spending more than 60$ on a shirt is not necessary.

I don't know about US, but in Spain you can get a tailor made shirt for 100$.

For buyers it wasn't easy back then. Now, in Spain, you can turn cash into bitcoins very easily. There are bitcoin ATMs in a lot of cities where you can buy/sell bitcoins anonymously with a 1000 euros limit.

With a bank account or debit card it's even easier.

Turning cash into bitcoin can be as easy as buying gift cards.

I sold bitcoins in person around 2012-2013. I had way more demand than bitcoins I was willing to sell.

It's more like: "I bought a painting for 20$ at flea market. 6 years later I learned it was from Van Gogh but sadly I don't know where it is now."

It's not possible with only the address. If you have the encrypted wallet I could give it a try though.

I used mu4e in Emacs. For HTML and images there is a view in browser function.

Now I use Claws Mail with Emacs as the editor. This solution lacks integration with Org-Mode so I may end up going back to Emacs.

In Spain you need to provide your ID for a prepaid SIM.

They even requested your ID for SIMs you already owned and eventually disconnected all the unidentified.

Around 11k.

This is why I use Android without GApps.

You have to trust the company, the employees, its security, the goverment.. Better to think of everything you upload as already posted in pastebin. It's relatively accurate.

Take a look at these slides [1] They're for 2010. Hardware needed? Around 70$. Knowledge? With those instructions, anyone. For the uplink you need to be able to spoof your IP which would require to find an adequate ISP [2]

The last time I had read about this technique was in 2010. [1] Those slides are a very good explanation. Back then I thought about it as a way to either sniff confidential data from the downlink or as a way to have an anonymous internet connection provided your ISP doesn't filter spoofed ips. Very interesting to see it used in the wild and for a C&C.

Mess with the car die like the cdr.

Pragmatism is a good principle but as you say there are persons who enjoy clothing itself as a form of art and self-expression. Casual/minimalism (as jeans+tshirt only) in clothing is not the rational choice for everyone.

As an example: Someone who doesn't particularly enjoy music could advocate that as a means to make fewer decisions and not waste time in non-adaptive behavior he doesn't listen to music. If the ingroup has similar tastes then it's converted into a "truth" and non-conformity prejudiced.

Overall I think that the intelligent thing is to dress according to what is expected/acceptable. A lot of people seems to think that the move to casual dress is some kind of new achieved freedom and that we're growing out of being biased against other's persons clothing. The reality, as posts here can attest, is that it was simply a change in dressing code. There is still a bias, now it's just placed in the more "formal" clothing.

I personally prefer tailored/formal clothing. But as casual dressers were discriminated in the 60s-70s so I would be in the current workplace if I dressed as I desired. The solution is simple: Dress as expected in work and as you like in your personal life. We as a species have not grown out of groupthink yet.

I think you're right. Nowadays I only use Emacs+evil for Org-Mode and languages that don't have strong tooling yet.

For me the main advantage of vi/vim is that I don't have to learn new editing keybindings each time I change editor/IDE. Vim mode is probably there and the rest I can rebind.

Another advantage for Vim/Emacs, especially Emacs, is that they are very extensible so you can actually have features that are more cutting-edge than what commercial IDEs have yet. Still I do think that the IDE package is more productive.

Yes, you can use a lot of other editors without a mouse. The advantage of learning vim/vim mode is that you can be proficient with them without having to learn their editing keybindings. Vim mode acts as a common interface. I even use those keybindings in Chrome with cVim.

I would say that an important number never go back from the keybindings/modal editing. I use them everywhere I can, from Chromium to Emacs.

Chromium in Debian. I installed Firefox now and it does work.

I'm not going to migrate from Org-Mode and Emacs as I'm too invested there but I find Flow Dashboard a very good project for people who are new to Quantified Self and doesn't want to spend dozens/hundreds of hours setting up their own system or don't need that level of detail/features.

Anyway, these are some features which I miss:

- Being able to clock inside tasks. Also expected time to completion of the task so you can adjust future predictions.

- Child tasks. At least projects should have them. Common tasks may just have checklists.

- Good editor and markdown support for the journal.

- Integration with some finance/budgeting app like YNAB or Ledger.

- Work without Google AppEngine. My journal shouldn't be a hack or a search warrant away. Too sensitive.

- Being able to schedule the tasks and habits. Maybe integration with Google Calendar, but privacy again..

Awesome project. Currently I use org-mode for this but Flow Dashboard seems way prettier and user-friendly. It may not be flexible enough, but as it is open source I may be able to make it fit my needs.

Sadly I tried to log in with my gmail account and it just returns me to the Login page again.

Well, that's the way it's meant to be. Exploratory analysis doesn't have the same purpose as hypothesis testing.

Boursorama also owns an Spanish "digital bank" called Self Bank. I have an account there.
