This is a super interesting case of how outdated ideas (ie. knees can _never_ go over toes) become pervasive in people's minds, almost to the point of a myth that is very hard to dispel. The story of kneesovertoesguy is amazing btw, I recommend checking his podcast episodes/youtube channel and training program (https://www.atgonlinecoaching.com/) which focus on knee and lower body strengthening that uses exercises that were a no-go for many experts not too long ago.

(EDIT: sorry for the plug, I'm not related to kneesovertoesguy or his business in any way -- I just noticed the landing page I shared above is literally a call to pay for his courses. I'm not and never been a subscriber but do enjoy and have been seeing real benefits from doing exercises he goes through on his youtube for free. So I hope it helps!)

Conflict-free replicated data type (CRDT) is super interesting data type (and algorithm), especially when it is implemented for complex data structures like JSON: A JSON CRDT is "[...] an algorithm and formal semantics for a JSON data structure that automatically resolves concurrent modifications such that no updates are lost, and such that all replicas converge towards the same state (a conflict-free replicated datatype or CRDT)." [1].

> Cannabis is the third most consumed psychoactive substance in the world (after alcohol and nicotine)

Nit, but I believe that coffee is the most used psychoactive substance in the world. Even if it is not the most used, it is surely in the top three before cannabis.

I do paragliding and this app is part of my every day toolbox to prepare the flights and decide where to fly. The forecasting is pretty accurate, specially if there's a weather station close to the area I'm checking the wind intensity and direction. Great app, can't recommend enough!

Interesting, to be honest I was expecting the thesis to be along the lines of "people cannot write because they cannot think clearly". It seems to be that with so many distractions and information overload, the science and art of thinking and articulating ideas clearly are considered as less important.

Edit: I also feel (highlighting "feel", since I don't have data to back this statement) that people tend to read less structured and long content than before (as opposed to tweet-like content and short click-bait articles). Not sure how this influences how society thinks and writes.

This is plain garbage. The best way to get visitors to your website is to create good content. No marketing, no click-bait or other garbage, just good content.

OP here. Do you have any system to cope with the _overwhelming_ amount of (interesting) information we can find online nowadays? How does it work?

Nothing.

Just get your shit together
