Tobi is cool as fuck.

Your experience reminds me of the saying, sometimes "the best people to work WITH are the worst people to work FOR".

What is the "wet-argument"?

I was a competitive swimmer in high school. We had practice twice a day, and would always get pissed whenever we got a paper cut.

Because we never let the cut fully dry out and have a scab form, small cuts would take MONTHS to heal, and often result in scars when they shouldn't have.

Because of that I always assumed, dry conditions were ideal for healing.

Oh man, I really want a Space Train that goes around the moon.

I know it doesn't make sense, but it would look so cool.

The data is the data.

If the data that agrees with you is "good data", and the data that disagrees with you "needs to reach a higher standard", that is how inaccurate beliefs get entrenched.

I thought the parallels was that his hard work would have caused on a strain on his bandmates, which it didn't, because he didn't really have any.

I thought Band Mates was the best comparison, because we were talking about fellow employee's suffering at a company. And if your comparison was of Prince to The Music Industry at large, it sort of works, but sort of doesn't because other musicians are Prince's competitors not team mates.

Prince recorded his first album by himself and played all 21 instruments, so he's not the perfect example for this.

Michael Jordan might be a great example though, he worked harder then anyone else, and ALSO raised the standard of how hard people needed to work on the team beyond the normal limits.

They all did benefit from the Championships that followed, but it was certainly also a strain of the mental health of players like Dennis Rodman.

Is Tactics the same thing as execution?

Like is it just the speed of your clicking? Or is it more than that, like the most basic kinds of strategic decisons?

I found the Switch to be highly effective as preventing pregnancy if you keep it in handheld mode and bring it to bed with you.

When partner attempts romantic activity, tell them you need 5 more minutes of Pokémon and the problem is solved completely.

That still seems like an awful lot of traffic for your phone to be using.

Do you mind sharing what gets you that kind of data usage? Just hours of FaceTime calling or something else?

What's the startup if you don't mind sharing?

Should term consequences rarely align with expectations.

But Long term consequences always do.

Thank you for this. Perfect joke.

Ticketmaster has been pissing on the FTC for 30 years.

I'm not crossing my fingers for much, but anything they do at this point would be awesome.

It also displays very poorly on my Tablet. Which is not an electronic device but a traditional stone tablet.

I've been building websites for about the same amount of time, and have never done JS animations and stayed away from GreenSock because I was scared of it, even though I was always curious.

This is the first time I've felt like the effort to learn and make something cool would be worth it. Thank you!

I like this a lot.

The All Trails cost seems too much for me, because my hiking is limited to 1 or 2 trails.

I'm going to see if I can draw my own trail with the GPS visualizer this weekend!

You say "it always fails", but also it fails because "extra 3d information is not worth the logistic cost".

Couldn't you conceive of a future where the "logistic cost" drops so incredibly low, that the cost is less than the benefit of the extra information?

Is there reason to doubt his "claim"?

His class costs $375.

It seems reasonable that he has 600 sales in a year.

The Tetris wasn't used long term like that as a distraction.

It was used to keep people awake for a long time immediately after a traumatic event. The Tetris was less important than the lack of sleep.

If you don't sleep and play Tetris for a couple days you scramble the process of turning short term memories into long term, making them less impactful.

It's not a joke. Remember you are still on "Hacker News".

A lot of us love this stuff, irony acknowledged.

You don't think that would kill them pretty quickly?

I had Jellyfish in a home tank and couldn't keep them alive for a week doing everything I could to protect them.

Shoutout to one of the WORST kick starters in history.

You are right. And that cycle of being told he was crazy but having massive success, was repeated TWICE in music and fashion.

So it makes sense his ego would be making it hard to see the world as it is, EVEN IF he didn't have any mental illness at all.

What are the main games taking hours on the Steam Deck?

I want one, but I'm still having trouble wrapping my head around what I would actually do.

Changing out to your preferred switches with the sound and pressure you want is pretty easy with mechanical keyboards.

You just need to make sure and get low profile ones to go with this board.

I suggest dropping $20 on a sample pack to find your perfect switch. They are also great to keep on your desk to fidget with. https://drop.com/buy/assorted-mechanical-mx-switches-sampler...

He was killed by the government for looking into UFO's.

Nothing will convince me this isn't true, and NO, I will not read the article before commenting.

Having a plan B, doesn't mean you completely abandon plan A.

Would decide against having a spare tire on your car, just because your traditional 4 tires were still required?

I really like Athletic Greens though....

Worst part about it was that it was probably the same person breaking in both times.

I never thought I would be a journaler, but got into it by accident.

I read self improvement books regularly, and I started keeping a journal of what I was reading. I try to read 10 pages each day, and at the end of my section I just write a paragraph summarizing what I had read.

After awhile the summaries started naturally including examples from my life so that I could remember the points better. And my own personal goals and aspirations. Once I was there it isn't that different from a standard "life" journal, but having the book you are reading really gives you a crutch to lean into and grow off of.

If you are someone who doesn't always click the articles before reading the discussion, make sure to check the page out for this one.

The design of this blog is amazing.
