Any recommendations about the boots? Or what to check for?
Re:Helium Browser on Thursday September 25, 2025 @05:47AM (#45370940)
And Vivaldi also supports MV2 extensions - so uBlock origin still works without any issues.

Wasn't there a story on HN about a GTA San Andreas bug that was caused by this? (or something very similar)
I use LogSeq a lot - and having the option to scrape a website with only the text in MD seems like a great fit.
It even added an extra f-word at the end. Still veeery impressive

I'm not up to speed. Are there currently any instances where free speech was limited on x/twitter? Genuinely curious
Re:The Simple Guide to Building and Breaking Habits on Wednesday October 02, 2024 @02:45AM (#41717843)
Is the webarchive snapshot complete?

I saw people in the comments referencing 4-6 habits but I don't see it in the snapshot. EDIT: nvm found it in the text.

Great idea! For better retention maybe it can be done as an anki deck?
Re:Ask HN: How do you go about finding a job? on Monday July 15, 2024 @07:21AM (#40966829)
Got it... So it wasn't like a step in the process: Hey, by the way give us your X/FB/reddit handles?
Re:Ask HN: How do you go about finding a job? on Monday July 15, 2024 @04:12AM (#40966056)
Do you think it might be a good idea to keep or your social accounts private? Or it's mandatory to reveal it during recruiting?
Re:Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards on Tuesday January 30, 2024 @12:22AM (#39186649)
This is very helpful. Thank you. So in a way these are like practice cards and not only memory cards.
Re:Anki – Powerful, intelligent flash cards on Monday January 29, 2024 @12:22AM (#39172965)
I was just wondering how to apply anki for learning guitar tabs. Can you please share a sample of one of your piano cards?
Re:Stanisław Lem's vision of artificial life on Thursday November 30, 2023 @04:07PM (#38479084)
When I read it for the first time many years ago it left a deep impression. And as others mentioned in this thread, reading it again recently I found new things that I didn't understand the first time. A bit sad, disillusioning but just kind of resonating with deeper truth.
But if vivaldi is based on chromium doesn't that mean that the same Chrome problems will apply?
Re:Mermaid Cheat Sheet on Friday February 24, 2023 @04:10AM (#34922575)
Only thing that I'd love implemented is the ability to add links on sequence diagrams (probably also on other types, but it's the one I currently try to transition from diagram.io).

What I found very helpful is to add a sequence diagram and add inline links to logs for the given endpoints.

Re:I tricked myself into working out 3 times per week on Tuesday September 06, 2022 @12:36AM (#32732890)
As I recall it was around 18-19%. And I did some years of strength training before that. The quality ranged from couple of weeks of good ones to months of almost nothing. So to answer I'd say somewhere in between.
Re:I tricked myself into working out 3 times per week on Sunday September 04, 2022 @02:03PM (#32715807)
I used a pair of calipers (3 point measure) and it was around 12-13 % body fat. But I can't be sure I don't have access to any machines (dexa as I recall). But it was totally doable, and seemed maintainable...
Re:I tricked myself into working out 3 times per week on Sunday September 04, 2022 @01:02PM (#32715151)
I did a version of this to achieve the holy 6pack grail. My wife held me accountable - I just had to stick to daily limit of calories (adjusted over time) and that's it. Around 7 months work. Then when I "finished" I couldn't stabilize the habit and am still stumbling at around 19 % body fat... I guess it's time to dust off this method.
Re:Why do you waste so much time on the internet? on Saturday May 07, 2022 @02:32AM (#31292591)
Worked only partially for me. I still go to aggregate sites and just browse when I'm bored (or anxious, or both).
What I tried some time ago, was putting people as projects in my trello board (I had it set up as a GTD board with a separate column for Projects). And each time I did a review I wrote a comment like: "Didn't do anything recently" or "Seen last weekend, X and Y was lot of fun". And when I felt it was time to reach out I did - if not it waited for the next review.

Thank you for introducing me to this podcast. Truly a valuable one.
Re:Jim Lehrer’s Rules of Journalism on Saturday January 25, 2020 @10:49AM (#22146714)
I wonder whether the improvements in machine learning would ever be sufficient, so that for an article we could generate a quick report of how many points from the list are "checked".

For those who are wondering why it's no longer on wikipedia: "Non-encyclopedic content; a personal essay, a hotchpotch of fan speculation and original research."
Re:Things that are illegal to build in most American cities now on Wednesday December 11, 2019 @02:23AM (#21760348)
I'm on edge whether the title is sensationalized or not... It does state the fact that it is illegal to do these. I would even see it as a better reflection of the current status then perhaps stating "Urban regulations prevent building these types of buildings."
Re:Sweet Home 3D is a free interior design application on Thursday November 28, 2019 @02:18AM (#21655257)
Previously I've used SketchUp for these kind of things - the free version does a good enough job and the library of objects is really great. Does anyone know how these 2 compare? (If not, and someone is interested I might be tempted)
Re:Getting Started with API Testing by Using TestMace on Monday October 28, 2019 @06:56AM (#21375832)
Does anyone have any experience how this compares to soap UI?
