Dude is a scientist who is doing this channel as his retirement project. High quality production value and science based.

Love me an Oat Milk Latte

I would recommend Jack Vance’s Dying Earth series as well as his Lyonesse Trilogy.

A bit more than just enough and a bunch more than too few.

Learned to recognize and preempt shame spirals before they dragged me down into depression. Made a world of difference.

Interesting, it is a fork of Onlyoffice.

I laughed way too much at this. What is the source?

Homomorphic encryption is pretty wild, you can sort and search data without decrypting it.

The clear answer is that developers should have their own Onlyfans channels.

Peak Gen X, same

More realistic might be the addict does something stupid out of desperation like try to rob his dealer and is killed in the process.

It is never a good idea to put yourself in a position where you have legal liability and could be sued. Damages and even just the cost of hiring a lawyer could bankrupt you.

It is disturbing when people take this kind of mysticism seriously. I could say a lot about this but it may be best just to refer to the words of Carl Sagan:

“I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time – when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness…

The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance”

How excited I am about buying a new frying pan.

One red flag for me us too much multitasking. If I have too many things I am working on and none of them are getting completed eventually switching between tasks becomes so disruptive I cease to make any progress on anything. I fight this with focus and prioritization: find the things that are most important and focus on them until closure.

“Without the option of “clean” natural gas, Sweden turned to district heating – an idea which had originated in New York in the 19th century. But Sweden committed to it in a big way during the 1960s and ‘70s, deciding it was the best way to meet the heating needs of the 1 million homes now being built. This decision shaped the way homes in Sweden are heated: today, some 90% of its multi-family apartment blocks are connected to district heating systems – with heat distributed from power plants (usually on the edge of cities) as hot water via a network of pipes.”

Banning ads seems like overkill. Going after deceptive practices aggressively and having strict regulation makes more sense IMHO.
