In my case 8000 steps (around 5.5 km) is something I am able to pull every day. Having a dog makes it more fun. I've tried also 10000 steps for a while but it was non-practical, just couldn't fit that extra mile. During…
There are Arwa Damon and Clarissa Ward. Then another female anchor, who people-smuggled herself through Africa with a hidden camera. They are all serious badasses, I don't even watch movies that tense. There will always…

devRant Aside for stupid memes, every now and then there is a story that temporarily cures my impostor syndrome / helps my everyday struggle seem like a fun day at the beach compared to crap some (fellow 3rd world)…
Purely empirical... just figuring out what I did last day/evening, and then noticed how sleep is affected in certain patterns.
Mi Band 3. It appears its sleep quality measurement through gyroscope/accelerator is accurate enough.
I've bought recently one of those cheap wrist bands. One of the most important features for me was ability to measure sleep quality in terms of "daily hours of deep sleep," whatever that scientifically means. Over the…

I remember having great time writing this little 256-byte game: https://github.com/dakics/asm-tie-fighter Back then, it often made a huge usability difference if you optimized in asm critical inner loops or other…
Applause from Slovenia to Buffers' Croatian developer! I'm sad to see actual reduction with this new 3.0 salary scheme. One would also need to factor in another 10-12% loss this year, which is depreciation of USD vs.…

A company I work for remotely would love to bring me over and pay me at the market rate. However, that's practically impossible due to current immigration process and H1-B scheming, caps, paperwork, expense and…
Follow their FB page, there are many people who are looking for a partner, or additional team member to share costs. In fact, if you need to spend a month in a car, it might be better with a person you don't know…

Great story! 5 years ago we went on a Mongol Rally. Driving European vehicle through the Stans makes you easy prey for local policeman. My co-driver had a strategy of befriending them and sharing small gifts (pens,…
Invoicing 1500 eur/month as a company, minus operation costs, minus taxes, gives 800-850 eur/month, which is barely livable. Lawful minimum is about 750 eur. Swizec is right, there are ways to incorporate to pay less…
$48k/y gig for US client converts in less than 2000 eur/month net with some creative book-keeping. Rent and utilities in Ljubljana cost us about 800 eur. What is left is maybe enough for one person, who will never own…
