- garofNothing about horses?
- This was not about what I'd hoped it would be. Things like: how to realize when you do or do not have sufficient knowledge about something, or how to distinguish bs from non-bs, or how to recognizing when you really need to have situational awareness, or how to maintain proper perspective on things, how to keep calm and when not to, etc.
The skills they mention in the article, budgeting and rejection and so forth, are also important. But there is a layer under that too.
- I totally believe this, but now I want to check my assumption. Can anyone offer pointers to supporting evidence or research on it? Thanks
- what even are words anyway?
sometimes reusing a common single word for a product works well, and sometimes it's just slippery as hell.
- "The Year 1000" by Lacey and Danziger explains this well in slightly more detail, with some references, for anyone that would like to learn more. The other reference I have on the shelf that I will check for this is David Crystal's "The Stories of English". Any other good references out there?
- Did either of you ever try watching e.g. Titus?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titus_(film)
It's not considered one of his great plays. I enjoyed the film, sought out a solo copy of the play, which I managed to slog through. That was years ago; I don't really remember it. Still revisit the film though.
- I always thought that I should do the translation myself to current colloquial English, for my own better understanding.
I didn't know about that link, thanks! Anyone know if there is a printed version that is similar? And, extending that request to other classic works too?
- They make a map for this: https://www.darkskymap.com/nightSkyBrightness
For the North American peeps, check out the western part of the US.

- For the lazy who don't know some of these:
Dan's is the only one I recall visiting before. And it's memorable because of the maximally wide text width. Personally I would find Dan's site more usable, and visitable, if there was an ordinary text width. Some reasonable default that is more readable.
- Surprised that I haven't seen Oliver Burkeman's Four Thousand Weeks[0] mentioned. It's kind of a lot but I found it helpful.
I'm personally still working on this problem, and just in the last week found this[1] SLYT video. It was helpful.

- I made a Shortcut for it and added it to the home screen. I found the triple click too fiddly, and the control center option to be not present enough.
- They definitely have different personalities, in my experience. Personalities that will suggest names, even.
- This. This is the one. I have those little flossies in an opaque jar on my coffee table and invariably, every night after dinner, I have flossed. Make it easy to do and you might do it more often.
- His follow up 'Evolutions in Bread' is scaled down for single loaves, either the round or in a bread pan. Including the starter. Also the discard problem is addressed.
- Not sure. Contact bonding can be strong enough to pull chunks out of one or the other of the glass pieces when you try to separate them. I've not personally seen this happen, only the results.
- It also makes me think of sticking two clean pieces of (optical) glass together without glue: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_contact_bonding
- Where Cooking Begins, by Carla Lalli Music. It's similar but less verbose than SFAH.
- I'll share one of my favorites: Sigur Rōs Route 1. It's a road trip around the Iceland ring road, and over 3 videos is ~24 hours long.

- Is there any site that hosts reviews of properties outside of airbnb?
Maybe even something that verifies the trustworthiness of these reviews?
I haven’t checked but it might be against some rules, but if there is a link to it, it seems possible to have reviews/comments on the contents at that link. I guess Airbnb would be mad about this if it was counter to their interest, so there might be some liability for hosting.
- I'm not sure of the experiment that this might be referring to, but it sounds like superheating[0]. Trapping the drop of water between two other liquids could be some version of a "clean container, free of nucleation sites" as described in the first paragraph of the wikipedia article. Other ideas?
