Thank you for saying that. I read it as underwear the first time and thought, “That’s pretty low humor for Peter Falk.”

I went on something like 50 dates with people that I found on online dating sites. This was between 2005 and 2007 (when I met my wife via Yahoo Personals.)

Planning and fomenting a revolution to overthrow the fascist takeover of the US government.

I’d say more like 20% more productive for most developers. Maybe it suits your coding style better than most?

Most of the time spent developing software isn’t writing code, but understanding the problem you’re trying to solve and translating that into an algorithm. I see more utility in generating tests, since a lot of developers don’t have good testing skills.

You don’t need to ask, just create it! You may need to use the web interface to do so. I’ve never tried to create a community using a mobile app.

The usual spot. The same amount of Viagra and Ducolax as last time?

Not if you buy them from me. High quality, low prices!

In the article refers to “cops” and “feds”. The overall tone of the writing sounds like a high school student wrote it.

Exactly. Some of them may actually be cops. They always get some number of facists.

I’ll second PARA. It works well for me. I used it as an organizing principle in my notes and todo software.

Things that I have found useful:

• MENDS as a routine, as often as I can remember (meditation, exercise, nature, diet, sleep)
• Mind mapping to take notes and reorganize / review it often (I use XMind)
• Keeping searchable notes (I use Joplin, but OneNote and Evernote work too)
• Using the above as part of an organization system (look up GTD and “building a second brain”)
• Microdosing psilocybin
• Get your hormone levels checked - if they’re outside the normal range, it can exacerbate ADHD

Good luck! It has been a multi-year journey for me, but a successful one.

The general election is two weeks away. What are people voting for in Georgia today?

They could have, but that doesn’t mean that Starlink couldn’t do a lot more to catch them at it. You’re making excuses for a fascist.

Are you saying that geolocation of a starlink unit is difficult from the starlink satellite network? That seems unlikely to me.

Starlink has no reason outside sanctions to give a fuck where their payments are coming from

Do you see a moral dimension to this? Keeping technology out of the hands of an aggressor state is an excellent reason. I think that many people feel that because corporate entities behave like criminal organizations (indifferent to anything other than maximizing their own profits) that this is somehow OK. It isn’t, and normalizing isn’t acceptable either.

It takes way less Delta V to push them into solar escape velocity.

Under what circumstances does the first amendment guarantee anonymity?

What makes you think the other commenter wants chip makers to operate in a free market?

Found the Brit.

People like Musk are cynical, attention-seeking manipulators and narcissists. They aren’t afraid that their way of life is being threatened, they’re using the fears of others to further their own ends, and consider themselves above it all.

That article was the most cogent take I have seen on this subject. I have a similar cultural background (rednecks and urban, religious Polish-Americans), but see myself as a science-literate atheist. I have seen this first-hand, but wasn’t able to articulate it as well.

Thank you for that!

I think I can say it now, except I keep wanting to put a Scottish “ch” at the end of Llangrannog instead of a “g” sound.
