Like others here, I did a lot of learning via a game and via a typing class in high school. But one thing that helped me a lot was doing some imaginary practice away from a keyboard as well. For example, if I was a…
I did the potato hack for a while, which is a mono diet that uses potatoes. I definitely lost weight, but lost muscle too. I might try it again as a 1-2 day "plateau buster" for some excess fat I'm trying to lose. I…
Personally, I was lucky because I was already on a "no-gym" mentality before COVID-19. I use a full-body bodyweight routine twice a week, and once a week I train with a sandbag. I run 6 days a week. I also train with a…
I work for a company that's in a partnership with Ahold Delhaize. While we were doing some in-store tests of our software product with them over a year ago, the topic of the robots came up. As they say in the article,…
I made the jump from Vim to Emacs about 6 months ago and org-mode was a major reason. It is very much worth it IMO. Evil supports all the Vim commands I was used to, and org-mode has been a revelation. It gave me that…
In the short-term I found that eating a piece of fruit whenever I craved sweets was a good replacement. Over time the fruit started to taste sweeter and sweeter (in a good way), and junk foods started to taste overly…
If you aren't opposed to eating fish (or don't already eat a lot of fish), you could consider incorporating mackerel or sardines into your diet. It will vary by brand, but mackerel is 230 kcal, 19g fat, 15g protein per…
It's not limited to AbbVie either, I get Xolair injections for chronic hives and Genentech uses a similar program. I assumed they were making a profit from the insurance-covered portion of the cost and used the program…
Then it is better for the producer, but at the cost of denying the consumer this benefit.
If the screen cast includes audio narration, no. From the the article: "the study determined that it is the dual action of speaking and hearing oneself that has the most beneficial impact on memory." The person doing…
Sorry to hear about your kitten. One of our cats does the same thing with her paws, mostly on our (glass) storm door or on mirrors. She'll also do it on opaque doors when they're closed and she wants to go in the room…
I have experimented with adding other veggies, but it just ends up adding complexity and allows worse choices to sneak in over time. It's easier for me to deal in absolutes in this matter. Potatoes have a great balance…
Yes, there are cautions for people that are diabetic or pre-diabetic. I suspect that you can't do the strict "hack" but there could be useful ideas in there, e.g., related discussions on resistant starch.
I personally eased off sugar in iterations, by making short "pushes" where I cut out ALL added sugars and answered any cravings with fruit like bananas, apples or grapes. Each iteration wouldn't last forever, but every…
Potato hacking. I normally follow the "potatoes by day" variant. The process is simple: steam/boil at least a couple pounds of potatoes, then let them cool in the fridge overnight. The next day, you can only eat…
There's one winner - Waze/Google. They're collecting all sorts of juicy data from this app.
One could argue that Waze is virtually "adding lanes to the road" by finding all these alternate routes. Yet you'll see a lot of articles that claim that adding lanes just encourages more people to drive, which is nice…
I got a p151hm from Malibal with the better matte screen, 16gb of RAM and an i7 processor. I went with SSD in the main slot and had the optical drive swapped for a spinning hard drive. This thing is a great workstation…
