It's owned by Automattic, isn't it? I assume they're simply keeping the lights on for whoever wants to use it. For about a year I've noticed that it tends to quit on its own on my Mac. Whenever I need to look for a note…
My therapist told me you can't really give if you can't also receive. I'm in the same boat you are. Trying to get better at it.
Reminds me of the Ambystoma salamanders that reproduce via kleptogenesis. They are all female, and they "steal" sperm from males of 3 or 4 related species. Most of the time they discard the male's genetic material, but…
How much was the domain?
Both of my sisters (currently mid-30s) have had their lives on pause for over 10 years due to chronic Lyme disease because doctors in Mexico hadn't ever even heard of it. It took 4 years of pain for the first of them to…
How do these kinds of advancements in math happen? Is it a momentary spark of insight after thinking deeply about the problem for 20 years? Or is it more like brute forcing your way to a solution by trying everything?
Having only been exposed to Mullenweg on the Tim Ferriss podcast, I perceived him as the benevolent, zen-like steward of one of the biggest open source projects ever. Watching this drama over the past few months has…
As a snake keeper, I imagine the best way to attract them would be with food (i.e. rats), but then you run the risk of also attracting other native predators as well. But to build on your idea, a trap that a python can…
I was listening to a podcast today where the speaker wanted to fight against the way that entrepreneurs and business people were portrayed in the media. In many movies and TV shows the bad guy is often an evil…
Last I heard he said he wasn't planning to make a 4th season of Bluey. But it was worded in a way that made it sound like it wasn't ruling it out completely. One thing I admire about the show is that all the children…
It took me reading your comment to realize that Bella's "You're doing great" at the end is directed at us parents. Thanks for the unexpected tears :)
In Mexico it is common to say that a woman was stolen or kidnapped ("Se la robó") when a couple elopes. Curious that the same face-saving mechanism is common in other parts of the world. As a boy whenever I heard a…
As someone who has only tried reading The End of the Affair and given up half-way, please excuse my ignorance but what is the source of your fascination with Graham Greene? Knowing so many people who love his books…
Agreed! I read the headline and my first thought was "Guess it's time to stop using Telegram now"
Agreed! It is also interesting to try to match the characters to the real life drug lords that inspired them by the crimes and strategies detailed in the book, though it can get confusing since Winslow often merges two…
Weird coincidence. Just today I was reading about South Korean artist Lee Ufan who in another very rare case concerning authentication of his work decided that 13 paintings in an investigation are indeed his—even after…
For a company with a market cap of almost $211 billion dollars, and a deal to use Shutterstock photography in their advertising, it's odd to see that they chose a free (and overused by startups who can't afford stock…
