I really enjoyed this article, although I love games with gameplay loops and bounce hard off of games with narrative. I wonder what the author would think of Hades?
That seems very reasonable to me.
I guess I feel the same way about that as I do about a steak. How do I know that the steak is the 16oz I ordered? Ultimately the most important part is if I found the experience satisfying enough to return, not whether…
My understanding is Belgian beer culture considers the aroma to be an important part of the experience. But I’ve never been, that’s all through osmosis.
Look, I get it. Beer is expensive, these days. Always has been. But I feel like these movements miss the forest for trees. If we mandate beer volume then places that are “shorting” you will just raise the prices. Not to…
This also speaks to another point, when trying to lose weight: you must find new things to enjoy.
+1 for Serious Eats. I also like NYT cooking. I do not like Bon Appetit, I find most of their recipes to not turn out well.
I consider myself to be on the lower conscientiousness side of the spectrum. For others who are like me, what has worked best to improve myself in this area are these two things: 1) develop empathy and compassion for…
This rings more true for me. Food simply used to be a lot more expensive. "Between 1960 and 2000, the average share of Americans’ disposable personal income (DPI) spent on food fell from 17.0 percent to 9.9 percent."…

I'm a layman, and so can't comment too specificaly. I found this Construction Physics article interesting, which was posted here some months back: https://www.construction-physics.com/p/will-we-ever-get-fusi...
I like Liftosaur, which appears to have an Android version on the Play store.
>I sympathize. I won't offer platitudes. I find those don't lessen grief. The most meaningful thing someone ever said to me, after my daughter was stillborn full term, was: "There is nothing to say."
To add on, different yeasts also vary in their ability to metabolize carbohydrates. In general, a wine yeast will be less able to metabolize complicated carbohydrates than a beer yeast. Beer yeast tends to be more…

Many people are on autopilot. They have not been taught to be intentional about the day to day fundamentals of their lives. For the most part, I think that used to be achieved through social contact which has…
I will add a comment in support of the very low dose of melatonin. I take 1mg, same as another user, but will experiment with dropping it. I find that it works best if I take it some time before I plan to sleep.…
I don't know, the Matt Stoller Substack post from yesterday had a whole line of discussion that was already covered in the article.
I felt the same but my preference is to have enough PTO to take off for that.

Is there still an active tremulous community? I have fond memories of that game.
easier to consider people to tend towards conservative rather than risk averse. if we were truly risk averse, society would be very different.
This is very cool. How recent is this? We purchased an older house with an HOA that discourages awnings. I had been considering petitioning for one but a low-emissivity coating would be easier.
Thanks! Taking a look now. I am early in my lifting journey and doing 3x compound lifts every other day (squat/row/bench, dead/ohp/chin up) at relatively low volume. I am primarily doing this for every day strength…
