You can't imagine my frustration at the thought of everyone debating a circle of red light that I am unable to see. It's a pain in the ass to be colorblind.

Thank you for sharing these great tips.
I am a photographer and have wanted to write a more personal email for years but have no idea how to start... I get lost in the platforms... TinyLetter, Mailchimp, Buttondown... And have no idea how to collect people's contact information.

When we start, I think the name "meditation" is misleading.
It's what we have left when we feel overwhelmed. Sit and breathe. It's interesting to try to do something so simple, so complicated.

Re:Ask HN: Anyone highlight text as they read?

I regularly underline in the books I read, with ruler and pencil. When it comes to instructions and rules, I underline and highlight.
Sorry for this question. Is it possible to highlight a part of a text somewhere in a web page, copy it, paste it somewhere else in a word processor as a quote/hyperlink and when you click on it you end up exactly where the quote is on the web page ?

I sincerely do not understand the interest of the army to hide the presence of such a small meteorite.

I have tried it three times and I find this way of teleporting very pleasant. I am particularly bad in geography, but it seemed to me that the places of some videos were sometimes particularly easy to identify. It's good when you feel lost.
And the three times around the twenty videos I had a bug (with Firefox). And lost all my progress.

As a non-programmer, I’d like also very much to see something like that applied to some kind of personal Wikipedia.

Hi there. Either sending quick notes or excerpts to Simple Notes ( which I'll have to edit on the computer ) or to Pocket when I want to read some article later, or archive it with hashtags.
