I feel like there is something I am supposed to know that would help the author make more sense about the flute playing. But I don't really understand what he is talking about?
Was this episode in childhood and now he is a young adult? Did he attend public school?
Reading this felt more emotional than I expected for a story about a car clock. I felt the authors disbelief when he has told that he would need this SD card to change the time in the car. Why should he?
But it turns out that for the choices made when setting up the car systems you did need it. And this is how we will end up with the purple hat of compute in the future.
For the month of November (and starting in October this year) I like to hold weekly cooking challenges to practice and refine my Thanksgiving day feast. Now about 3 weeks out from the final boss level of cooking, and I'm having a week all about brussel sprouts. Earlier weeks were cauliflower and the classic seasoning blend of sage, rosemary and thyme.
I know it's common, but cooking is very relaxing to me and I find the results pleasurable. We all have to eat, you can either approach. It like a chore or make it into an enjoyable hobby.
As far as unexpected benefit, maybe it encourages people to visit me, because they know I'll have food here?
I feel pessimistic that this will lead to the 50% frame just happening to be a frame with a guy making the face, plus an arrow and a few big detail words. It's what the algorithm rewards, why is it so though.
I love it!!! I've tried years ago to make something like this, it didn't work out. But it makes me so happy to see that you did it! Great job!
It's amazing how many different vitamins and minerals we really need to get for optimal health, compared to what we actually do get and are able to muddle along for some time with.
Vitamin D is something its easier to find and still people end up deficient and don't realize it. I think it's particularly telling how the article notes the deficiency can start in the mother and immediately be passed along to a child. How do children grow with inadequate foods? Are we collectively failing to reach our potential?
The tides are really high right now. It's very obvious that the water is much higher than usual. Can't wait until it starts raining on me more than usual too... I'll have extra water from both directions.
I think for that last part it's more the other way around.
I was a constant instacart user, never liked door dash though. What changed is that now instead of using Instacart I have a regular person who comes by to help me out at home with all sorts of chores and for me now it makes much more sense to pay her to also do the grocery shopping. I get much better service too, she knows my preferences and also does the inventory beforehand and puts everything away for me.
I found her for free on Facebook posting in a community group. It is a high trust situation but I realize a lot of these extra fees are because we try to operate in a low trust environment, which is really not optimal. Being able to trust your community is much better for everyone.
Such a clean example and a funny reaction. It's true though. Do we get to complain when the problem is we built ourselves a mirror and wow does it reflect!?
I know fake chocolate is getting dragged through the coals but lately I've been eating this new candy called Harken, and while it's made with dates and sunchokes, it is so extremely delicious. It's not the old candy, but it's a new delicious candy.
Yeah the small handed people want comfortable phones!
Could they build their own fab?
Am I doing the same sort of exercise prep when I write out a plan before executing the actions?
I did think from the title it would be a silly story, but it does make me thing about how mentally reviewing something before trying to do it does help out the result.
Yes, it was "Design a 6 sided drinking glass", and I wanted the 6 sided limitation removed.
Then in this class design means draw 6-10 preliminary sketches and choose one, then draw and paint 3 perspectives and a 3D view.
I also have the same 'welcome to the real world' feeling. I would say I've been bumbling along for 15 years, but recently I've discovered the joys of hiring others. I watched a YT video that was like give yourself time back by buying help before you think you're ready.
Now I try to spend most of my time doing things more unique to me that I can't hire another person to do. It's still a moving target though, I'm going to check out that book another comment recommended.
I remember one pivotal moment in college being when I was given an assignment, and I asked if some of the restrictions on the task could be removed. The teacher told me what I really did was just ask for the hard version of the problem.
I asked her what she meant, and instead of telling me, she just laughed and said go ahead, remove the restrictions and see for myself.
She was right! Without the restrictions there were so many more possibilities I had to work much harder to complete the assignment. It was still fun though and I learned more than just the assignment from that lesson.
I appreciate your low-poly aesthetic. I bet you and like half this website have written a video game in highschool. You have found the right group to tell about it.
I was recently thinking the time will come when not consuming becomes a product. Imagine being paid to not use power or to not take a shower so the power and water are available for the billionaire instead to swim in his heated pool.
Whatever you do please avoid becoming the van that parks in the amazing spot next to the ocean and then sits in the back staring at their screen. The whole ocean is there! Stare at the ocean!
Come for the fascinating quote from Adam Smith and stay to read a while about decisions and their cost, plus their costs cost.
I live under the flight path for an airport, which should be kind of annoying. Instead I find it inspiring to hear the roar of the jets and see the small planes hurling through the air. We dreamed of the day for so long and now it is common!
Thanks, very helpful. I was shocked to read they are securing $35B for chips and then to read it's buying chips from alphabet/Broadcom.
Wow this worked really well for me. It suggested some plants I already have from the botanical garden recommendations, and a few new ones I've considered but haven't tried yet. Now I know how they would interact with the bugs and critters too!
I've always loved animals, and I would love to quit and own a farm where I breed and care for horses. I also like cats a lot I could see myself working as a cat therapist. My children tell me I am a very good cook too and should start a business selling crepes for breakfast.
None of these ideas are as lucrative as writing SW. I'm not technically trained as a SWE though I do write it, I'm a hardware person.
The redhead, ginger, color link comes from early season ginger, which has reddish pink tips around the leaves right above the fresh root.
So I recently went through a period where I listened to the exact same single song on repeat on Spotify for about 4 weeks, averaging 8-12 hours per day. Did I give the musician a windfall?
The illustrator did beautiful work, it's amazing how much different your program became from the original dashboard to one simple home gui.
