g3houdini··on Ask HN: Best Technology for an E-Christmas Get Together?
zoom has been the best for this since most have accounts. They are also free unlimited calls during xmas. Curious what others have found?
g3houdini··on Ask HN: How to Learn the Art of Storytelling?
A very important part of the story is talk about the details leading up to the story. Try telling a fable or a small story first. Repeat that story to perfection and repeat it to others to see what they react to. Especially a story they have heard before. Comedians do this with a joke. Tell, retell, sharpen, retell.
g3houdini··on macOS Big Sur
I hope this update doesnt slow my 2014 macbook pro to a crawl. Anyone update yet?
g3houdini··on I sold Baremetrics
I support Josh and his healthy approach to showing others what is possible when you share and contribute to the internet.
g3houdini··on We thought it was just a respiratory virus
The article based on studies by UCSF is a good read for many who are not understanding the basics of what is happening. I would suggest giving this out to friends and family who have concocted their own version of science and are refusing to wear a mask.
g3houdini··on Anything Better Than Notion?
I have used nvALT and can't seem to get away from it. It's simple and fast to use. I have yet to explore how to connect to the cloud. Anyone else solve this problem.
g3houdini··on My productivity app for the past 12 years has been a single .txt file
I have been using nvALT. Its very fast and searchable - wish it connected to my iphone though. On my iphone I use notes.
g3houdini··on Tell HN: Failed two times on Kickstarted – successful on third attempt
What do you think made the difference on the third try?
g3houdini··on Firefox to Discontinue Sideloaded Extensions
Time for a new browser introduction....
g3houdini··on Cancer Complications: Confusing Bills, Maddening Errors And Endless Phone Calls
This same issue exists for autoimmune disease as well as many other diseases. My understanding is that the hospitals were going to post the costs for treatments and make the process more transparent. Has this happened?
g3houdini··on The 'Erin Brockovich town' is still toxic and nearly abandoned
Let's assume I agree with you. Are you stating that the movie EB (and the woman Erin Brockovich) was responsible for making Hexavalent Chromium 6 the fall guy and that there was nothing that happened in Hinkley to the very tiny population of 2k (or less) people?
g3houdini··on The 'Erin Brockovich town' is still toxic and nearly abandoned
Scientifically speaking do cigarettes cause cancer?

It may not be scientifically clear because you and other scientists and lay-people do not have access to the PG&E maintenance records that indicate they were pumping large amounts of Chromium 6 into the water table (drinking water). If it was not an issue, then why did they settle and buy out all the properties?

g3houdini··on The 'Erin Brockovich town' is still toxic and nearly abandoned
A lot of people ended up sick in this area and with major health issues. If not chromium 6, then?
g3houdini··on On the Sad State of Macintosh Hardware
When will this change? Apple keeps announcing an interest in "us" Pro users but can't seem to push out a Pro product we want? On top of which the new OS wont work with older Macs....
g3houdini··on Ask HN: Do you keep a personal journal?
Have you tried to nvALT? Its an update to Notational Velocity.
