This is ridiculously preachy. I do think the overall thesis is correct, in that boredom can be a powerful force for creativity and inspiration, but paragraphs like this make the article completely off-putting: "If you…
I love this. When I use Google assistant to start a timer, it always says "Sure, 5 minutes. And we're starting now." This takes about 5 seconds, and the timer doesn't start until it's done. It's a minor annoyance, but…
I got 5/6 with a Schiit Magni/Modi stack and Beyerdynamic DT 770s. On the flip side of the coin, my wife regularly listens to music just out of her phone speaker and claims to not notice the difference. Everyone enjoys…
It took me a solid 6 months from "never worked out a day in my life" to "can do a pullup". I started just hanging from the bar, then moved to using a stool to get above the bar and lowering myself as slowly as possible.…
How did you find a good PT? How does it work with insurance? I want to also establish a regular PT routine but I'm unsure how to start.
Why does it matter that the server was Indian?
timeouts/intervals are slowed down when in inactive tabs https://gomakethings.com/the-delay-on-settimeout-and-setinte...
This is amazingly well done. Although simple, it's actually enjoyable to listen to.
This is my issue too. Earplugs don't help for idling trucks, or subwoofers. Nothing I've found does.
I've been using Anki for about 3 years to learn Korean and it's been tremendously successful. In that time I've learned around 3000 new words (both English -> Korean and Korean -> English with reversed cards) and a ton…
Adventure games are still not dead! Amanita Designs is making some of the finest games around - in particular, their masterpiece Machinarium. Anyone who even has a passing interest in adventure/point and click games…
I set up an old iPad as a picture frame that shuffles through all my photos. It's been wonderful reliving memories and vacations! I did have to buy a third party app to do the shuffle since Apple removed it a few OS…
Yes, please! This would be a really neat tool. There are already some Ableton devices that are similar. Makes me want to investigate how to build a device.
This is a totally different way of visualizing a track - no GAN here, all done by hand, but also very cool: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LvEGgMbTW1s
Very cool! I've loved Apple Music ever since I was able to upload my library using Match, and I feel like its recommendations are getting better and better. Nice to have this in a pinned tab.
This is purely anecdotal, but I've noticed recently a trend of reviews that start with "I was sent this product for free in exchange for an honest review..." and they almost always include photos. True, these are easy…
Agreed. It's well-studied that heaping praise on mediocre accomplishments diminishes the effectiveness of future compliments.
The author addresses this in the conclusion, and is also suspicious, but presents some possibilities that explain it. "This surprises me, because the dramatic shift in 1973 made me expect to see a single cause (and…
My wife and I have done a lot of traveling over the last 5 years and usually stayed at an AirBnB. We used to have nothing but good experiences but the quality has become so inconsistent that we switched back to hotels.…
Not quite. The meals I prepare from Blue Apron are significantly healthier than most takeout options - we control the sodium entirely and the majority of the ingredients are fresh vegetables and proteins. Plus the…
I've been learning with Simply Piano for about 6 months now and I'm amazed at my progress in that time. I'd highly recommend it.
