Pouring hot grits down my pants at the very thought of it.
I miss the World Wide Web, man...
Mine love the D'Aulaire Book of Greek Myths and Book of Norse Myths. Can't get enough of 'em.
I'd love to hear experiences of using Monica. I've been hesitant to try it out mostly due to my own ignorance of how to get existing data in there and get it into a usable state. But I love the concept.
don't you pee your bed tho?
I stayed at one in Iceland where the entire bathroom wall facing the living room was unfrosted glass, including the door. The living room was open concept so it was hard to avoid seeing into the bathroom. Great place for couples to bring their entire selves to the relationship.
Nice looking platform! Would love to be able to search/filter by feature.
Exercise, sleep, nutrition, and screen time. Getting these right is life-changing.
Easily the best one ever. Back when the Web was still fun.
Always loved the `man` page for `sl:
"BUGS - It sometimes lists directory contents."
Xordle is the most fun variant, the association between the two words is a nice little clue and they seem to come up with good puzzles every day
Has anyone managed to get LogSeq to sync across Apple devices?
Mind giving a brief summary of Kurzweils thesis?
I have long wondered why Ruby's symbols aren't in every language.
This. There is constant maintenance work needed to keep things online even in a steady product state.

I've been looking into using Wagtail for a
simple website project. It seems mature, well-documented, Python/Django-based, but I haven't seen much in the way of personal recommendations or details about how people are using it and the pros/cons of the platform. Do you have any anecdotes you could share?
Does this refer to the same style as "Corporate Memphis"?
Work on it every day even for just a few minutes
I've never had a downvote button available to me. Up only. How does one get the ability to downvote?
Strange question. OP did not say anything had to be anything, they are just sharing their experience...
Well, except that the excerpted line says they plan to waive the regulations (i.e. change the law) in the event of non-compliance...
I would also be interested in this. I've been consulting for about 2 years but mostly thru my network. I'm a bit stuck as to how to branch out beyond that.
What helped me was to start thinking of drinking primarily as a social enhancer or lubricant, instead of a way to retreat into self-medication. Social drinking is how alcohol is fun for me - the other ways don't really add value to my life. A habit of self-medication with alcohol feels more problematic and perhaps indicative of a psychological dependency, whereas social drinking is perfectly normal and enjoyable. You may not agree with this logic, and there are undoubtedly other dimensions to alcohol that I am ignoring, but this is basically how I think about my own relationship with alcohol and it works for me - do what works for you.
Changing my thinking in this way allowed me to start to cleave to an informal rule of "no drinking alone", a lifestyle tweak that struck me as simple and achievable. That helped me to cut down overall. Ultimately it's about deciding what role you want alcohol to have in your life, fixing that in place, and then working backwards from the desired state.
It's a popular little game that turns out to have a few interesting aspects or dimensions to it that people are now exploring. I would view it as perfectly normal and interesting HN content that will taper off when a new fad takes its place.

The recent discussion [1] on the Black formatter for Python had me thinking about whether there is any innovation still happening in the realm of code formatting. Most of the possible ways to format code in each language must have been tried by now, and I would expect we've converged on a narrow range of permutations purely for practical reasons. But recently I did see an interesting example...
Governments will simply make it illegal some day, rendering it worthless.
Any technical analysis of the hack yet? How'd they get in?
That Linsdey Lohan can't swim a lick, but she sure knows every dive in town!
