I have been electrocuted twice once as a kid (which I don't remember but my parents reminded me) and once as a teenager which I definitely remember. My country's voltage was 240 volts at 50 Hz. I remember screaming…

I agree with you. When I was younger, I spent many many years in evangelical Christian work and went to seminary. It is not difficult to manipulate people especially if one orates well and echoes the audience's…
Accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid needs to flush waste from brain operation hence the need for rest/sleep.
I have always felt this way too. Our personal choices do not move the needle on fossil fuel and plastics. One could embrace aversion to these out of a sense of sustainability to signal virtue, but lets not pretend it…
Land acknowledgements are common in Canada especially in provinces that did not sign treaties with indigenous people prior to taking their land.
The process you describe above is highly vulnerable as Ponzi scheme. The goal would be to raise total revenues, to paint a certain financial picture to meet targets for cashing out before the high debt load and interest…

OMG, I've lived this long and used the web without knowing about this. <bowing>
I think in times past, the achievements of woman in STEM were downplayed and disproportionately overshadowed by men of their same era. You have to assume that most reporters and journalists covering tech would have been…
This. Coffee with a teaspoon of coconut oil or butter if preferred. The oil increases satiation (feeling full). Then get at it. Whatever you need to do or narrative to tell yourself why you don't need to eat, do it.…
Some may think it primitive but your workflow is fast, efficient, backups up easily (I write a simple DOS batch file which copies all new or updated files to a USB stick) and backs up to the cloud easily as well.…
Yes Xtree! Oh my major flashback...
Aaron Schwartz, you did not die in vain. RIP.
