How about comparing it to a Rolex watch?

How well does it handle large repos?

Would you consider company going public as change-of-control that should trigger voiding trademarks?

I often seem to experience these productivity bursts when I know I have to leave work soon, regardless of time of day.

I plan to use it alongside Toggl time tracker. Toggl desktop client has a "Record Timeline" feature but it syncs the data to the cloud while I'd rather store it locally.

Is it really deterministic mapping from input to output, for given configuration options? I imagine you can build different algorithms that choose what data can be removed, with different tradeoffs between encoding time, decoding time, memory consumption, output file size and experience of quality.

"In a murder case of 1235, a villager was stabbed to death and authorities determined that his wounds were inflicted by a sickle; this was a tool used for cutting rice at harvest time, a fact which led them to suspect a fellow peasant worker was involved. The local magistrate had the villagers assemble in the town square where they would temporarily relinquish their sickles. Within minutes, a mass of blow flies gathered around one sickle and none other, attracted to the scent of traces of blood unseen by the naked eye. It became apparent to all that the owner of that sickle was the culprit, the latter pleading for mercy as he was detained by authorities."

"Compared to students who reported sleeping eight hours at night, high school students who slept less than six hours were twice as likely to self-report using alcohol, tobacco, marijuana or other drugs, and driving after drinking alcohol. They were also nearly twice as likely to report carrying a weapon or being in a fight."

Have they established causation? Or could it be that lifestyle including alcohol and weapons also happens to involve less sleep?

"The original ECD program, which lasted two years, enrolled 127 stunted children aged 9-24 months. Researchers randomly assigned these children to one of four groups: a psychosocial stimulation intervention, a nutrition intervention, both interventions, or neither intervention (the comparison group)."

That was my first thought too: the positive results could be effect of special attention and expectations (placebo effect). However comparing "both interventions" group with each single intervention group should address this.

On the other hand I have found it immensely useful to form a habit of refusing to respond to accusations, demands and threats immediately. Instead I (try to) listen, maybe even ask some questions, retreat and then respond. This did not develop intuitively like mastery of computer UIs – it required retrospecting on certain situations many times over and promising myself on how I will act in similar situation in future.
