I fee like UI/UX needs to be completely redesigned and dvorak isn't even half (or any) of the battle. Single-key copy/paste, undo/redo, keyboard driven UIs, etc etc. I say this as I type on dvorak and while I love it, I also regret it due to interoperability issues and breaking of common keyboard shortcuts (I miss Ctrl+CVX).

But I just aliased `us` and `dv` to setxkbmap shortcuts, so thanks for that!
The problem with hard problems is that its easy to give up. However, just because you gave up doesn't mean you didn't learn anything. Especially beginners write a lot of crap code and it's actually better if that code never makes it to production but when its time for their second or third project their previous experience becomes very valuable.
You don't want to reveal the reasons for your github suspension/deletion? (I could understand if they didn't tell you. Such notices are frustratingly often deliberately uninformative.)

The first time this project was discussed on HN I thought that it's not trustworthy and I believed the project description to be dishonest.

That somewhat rhymes with stuff one would need to do to get suspended on github - hence my question.

Then again the legal situation of paywall bypasses is pretty grey, so it's genuinely interesting to know whether github has potentially some kind of policy against it.

I know you're officially not involved as you said that the first time you posted the project. An unofficial answer would be equally interesting!

Yes. I had similar reaction: I was very relieved that I could take a nap on Ritalin. That never worked on dexamphetamine.

Though I also heard from some other people for whom Ritalin has intolerable side effects, but Adderall works.

Honestly for me, if methylphenidate wasn't available, I'd go with nicotine patches and perhaps modafinil instead of dexamphetamine.

Thanks to billions of smokers we a have pretty good idea of the long term effects of nicotine. Eg we know that it protects against parkinsons. (And there are some indications that Parkinsons and ADHD are linked.)
I do conversion rate optimization for ecommerce and Baymard is an extraordinarily valuable resource. If you're doing any work in ecomm or b2c, it's well worth the premium subscription price.

I think most ecommerce problems stem from these things:

1) Too much reliance on platform's opinions / defaults or the inability to technically overcome the usability concerns the platform presents for your implementation.

2) Uninformed design decisions. That is decisions that aren't backed by user research, data, etc. While ecommerce stores share tons of commonalities, the product offerings are unique and present different challenges/needs/etc. from other shops.

3) Brand getting in the way.

Baymard is a big boon for #2 because it takes data that is very expensive to get and makes it easily and cheaply accessible. Rather than focus your research efforts on large-scale ecommerce concerns, you can focus them more on your core differences. It also helps provide justification for #1 and helps inform difficult conversations about #3. Self-servingly, I'll say that CRO work helps take these things a step further and provide further validation or help answer difficult questions before investing too many resources.
While Mozart's family was not of the aristocracy, they were of the bourgeoisie, which at the time indeed was a very small part of society – the great majority of Austrians in the 18th century were peasants. I think it is fair to consider his upbringing quite a privileged one.

> Riot.im on Android is laggy and unresponsive.

Riot/Android hasn't been developed in over a year. We rewrote it as RiotX/Android, which is unrecognisably better, and will be exit beta shortly.

I suspect you also suffered from the default homeserver (matrix.org) being horribly overloaded.

Sorry this put you off the rest of the ecosystem.

I would respond similarly for my own work situation. We're using Microsoft Teams which is fine and in many ways a big improvement over the hodgepodge of tools we used before remote work en masse was considered viable by my employer. Still, it has changed the dynamic and that is a challenge as it affects individuals differently. Some colleagues have become more communicative, others less so, some want to use the phone more now, others are happy to use channels to post a stream of what they're working on without addressing anyone in particular, etc.

Interesting. I think LSD works on Serotonin too? But it has much less body load in my experience (at least, the unpleasant kind I associate with psilocybin).
> in a log database, the ordered log would be eg. 1<-2<-3<-5<-4<-6

How do you know that? It's not inferrable from the DAG. Is sequencing also provided "a layer up"?

> if 4 and 6 are both a set operation on key a, it would mean that key a would have the value from 6 and the next write to key a would overwrite the value in a.

Yes, I mean for all of my events to be reads and writes of the same key. And you've proven my point, I think: if the resolution of this causal tree is Last-Writer-Wins, 6-domiantes-4, and "key a [gets] the value from 6", then whichever poor user was operating on the 3-4 causal branch has lost their writes.

This is a problem! If you claim to be a CRDT and offline-first or whatever, then as a user, I expect that the operations I make while I'm disconnected aren't just going to be destroyed when I reconnect, because someone else happened to be using a computer with a lexicographically superior hostname (or however you derive your vector clocks).

And if you want to say something like, well, when the unlucky user reconnects and sees that their work has been overwritten, they can just look in the causal history, extract their edits, and re-apply them to the new root -- there's no reason for any of this complex machinery! You don't need CRDTs to just replicate a log of all operations. Of course, you also can't do any meaningful work with such a data structure as a foundation, because it immediately becomes unusably large.
Check out the Meshify C, it’s basically yours but with a really cool design on the front panel. Other than that though, I agree with you that there isn’t much on the market that stands out in mATX and bigger. The Thelio seems like a great design but it’s not available as an empty case.
Curios if you have actually tried wearing a mask?

I touch my face way less with one and think about it each time i do. yes i rearrange the mask sometimes, but then i go wash my hands.. and as i wear a mask more, my need to rearrange it drops.

it also is a social cue for anyone around me to think about the hygiene issues if they see me touch the mask which they don't get when i am not wearing a mask.

After 1918 a major part of the population was dead and cities were destroyed.

It's hard to fathom how much destruction there was. Have a look at this aerial view of a village before and after artillery fire. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e5/Passchen...

Of course there was growth afterward to rebuild and repopulate. This is nothing like the current crisis that doesn't destroy homes and hardly kill anybody.

Because covid19 is a pandemic while every single one of the examples given were at best localized epidemics.

More importantly, countries who endured SARS epidemics such as South Korea were very fast in issuing decisive tactical lockdowns and rolling out policies devised to contain the spread. Those countries who never endured similar epidemics did not had the infrastructure in place to act cirurgically to contain the epidemic, so their only option is to impose a nation-wide lockdown.

It didn't really say you shouldn't tell people what to build, but that they should build what they want. This means instead of ordering them to build something you should convince them to build it, this ensures they are fully on board with the shared vision and possibly they might even have good arguments and convince you that their version is better.
At which point you'd have learned a new skill, and you're otherwise no worse off than when youu started.

It's very easy to forget that current decisions and past decisions operate on vastly different kinds of knowledge.

It's easy to look back in time and say "Someone knew the right answer."

It's very hard to stand in the present and say "Of the 20 people who each have a different answer they believe is right, I am going to select the really right one."

Often, the optimal decision is to hedge and delay until information becomes clearer.
I think "outdoor cat" in this context means a cat that lives inside with a human but is allowed outside, i.e. a cat that spends time outside but still has a safe place to call home. A feral cat is quite a bit different, and I'm not surprised that a previously feral cat would greatly value the safety and security of an all-indoor life.
How would you turn that into a proof of work system, if the answer is already known beforehand?
I tried that as well and it does not work for me. What works is association with some stories. For example, to remember a credit card number I associate each 2 digits with a year that gives an event and then the number is a sequence of events.

What also works for me to train memory is to learn phrases in a foreign language that I do not understand. Surprisingly combining those with text I do understand leads to better recall of the whole text. It is almost as understanding harms memory.
Yeah it’s interesting because usually these sorts of things (like editing my hosts file) don’t work for me because I get annoyed by the restriction when I legitimately need to access something and undo it.

I guess in this case it’s a small amount of friction not a complete block that works for me.
I just switched from TT-RSS to FreshRSS. FreshRSS comes out of the box with a Docker image which is really easy to set up. For TT-RSS you have to create your Docker image yourself as neither of the two images available on Github work without putting in a bit of effort.

TT-RSS requires an (old, probably no longer maintained) plugin for the Fever API. FreshRSS has it built in.

Interface wise it doesn't really matter that much.

> but also recognise that your brain/body only has so much "fuel" each day ...

My experience is similar to yours, and I would also add that that "fuel" grows if you maintain the effort throughout the days/weeks. But some of the days you'll have more fuel, others less, just to the best you can (I struggle a lot to keep that balance, not easy at all..)

Are they mutually exclusive, though? You might think the tools are adequate - or even good -, but not be happy with how other people handle remote collaboration.

My experience has been, that some people really like to call you directly and expect you to take their call, without creating a meeting or asking you if/when you have time. Others (still) have problems with muting/unmuting themselves or realizing that everybody can hear their environment. And I think when you're accustomed to never or very rarely working from home, there are a lot of things you have to do differently, so the learning or adaption curve is kinda steep at the beginning.
> if something heals you, is it not sacred? And likewise, if something is sacred, it heals you.

Let me explain in two different ways why this is wrong.

First, because we are after all a site full of programmers, let me put this in terms of prepositional logic: A => B is different from B => A. If I tell you "all doctors are humans" (let's assume this is true, for the sake of the example), accepting that proposition does not then imply "all humans are doctors".

Second, from a philosophical/rhetorical perspective: you are using two different definitions of "sacred" and acting like they're the same. There's the one by which, if something heals you it is sacred (a consequential reading, where "sacredness" has to do with the value of healing). Then there's the one where if something is sacred it heals you (a deontological/aesthetic reading, where "sacredness" is an attribute inherent to an act regardless of its consequences). Acting like the two are the same leads you into a trap of assuming that because something is moral/sacred/good, its consequences must also be good. This is not so.
Funny story. I started learning Colemak must have been close to a year ago now. I switched my home computer and phone to Colemak, but kept my work computer on Qwerty as I wasn't quite ready to suffer the initial productivity hit even though I knew I needed to do it in order to really breakthrough. In the end I couldn't commit, so I switched everything back. About 6 months later my wife received a text while she was driving and asked me to reply to it. I picked up her phone and fumbled through typing out a reply. Something felt off. I opened up my phone to compare. I had never switched my phone back to Qwerty and my brain had completely adjusted. So much so that I didn't even realize my keyboard had been Colemak for the last 6 months.

It's still Colemak to this day.
The problem here is that when you start passing laws and fines on people not for causing damage to other but "for their own good" that are essentially violating core principles of modern democracy(as in the right to assembly, or conduct commerce), the state are taking on the persona of an "benevolent dictatorship" which are bound to drive some people towards contrarianism.

The measures taken might be completely right from an medical science perspective but we have moved away from a system where an enlightened monarch or central committee makes decisions on behaf of the ignorant people because history have shown that such systems always devolve into conspiracies against the many by the powerful few, so we cannot respond to every minor crisis by having the government adopt the tactics and language of an benevolent dictatorship and must govern by consent, ie it's the scientists job to make the public understand the risks/benefits not dictate solutions.

This feels like a strawman argument.

Very interesting study, thank you Gitlab. It would be great if the results were true and the trend could prevail in the long term. I'm one of these 16% "working remotely all the time" since six years (working frequently remote for ten years before already). I have more than enough interesting work, but I regularly had to deal with companies that were not interested in cooperation because I was not willing to work at least 50% on site. I am curious to see if Corona will change this attitude. I live in german speaking Europe, and perhaps the culture here is simply not yet ready for it.

The way I view it, Daniel's point was to focus less on what other people expect of you, and to think less in ways like 'will this help me progress in my career'. Both are examples of extrinsic motivation.

Instead, reframing your goals in terms of serving an intrinsic goal (e.g. 'I do this because it is interesting', or 'I do this because it helps my community') has been shown experimentally to improve longer term persistence at achieving those goals [0].

> Try 5-6x. I've met some blind people who listen to audio so fast, it sounds like noise to me. As someone who isn't blind, I regularly listen to lectures and audiobooks on 1.75-2.5x (depending on the base rate) without issues, but 6x is just something else entirely.

Yes, indeed. I was writing that original comment for someone just getting started. What ends up happening is no matter how fast the speech rate is, you'll eventually get used to it and your brain will grow impatient. So you'll bump the rate up another 0.25 and rinse and repeat. Pretty soon it's incomprehensible to anyone but you.

I'm pretty sure anyone can get used to 2X+ without much effort. After a while you'll wonder how you ever listened to speech at a normal rate. Be careful, though, as I've found myself grow impatient listening to people in real life and can trace it back to my high-speed listening habits.

Lots of questions, which I love. I developed my technique with lots of leaders, my podcast guests, and friends, and find more input helps.

Regarding beliefs as the root, once I reach beliefs I try to learn where they come from, especially very common ones like "If I act but no one else does then what I do doesn't matter." It's an belief in many places, especially entrepreneurial communities where people want to act quickly before others react. I also want to learn other motivations to learn how to help people act on their motivations to help others.

I describe and teach my leadership style in my book Leadership Step by Step http://joshuaspodek.com/leadership-step-by-step. My environmental work mostly applies that style to the environment. The four-step strategy you outlined is Unit 4 of that book applied to this field.

Do you have ideas on going deeper?

I see huge gaps I'd like to improve on -- for example, engaging community on a wide scale. I believe people would want a community like Mr. Money Mustache's https://forum.mrmoneymustache.com (which I found through Hacker News five or ten years ago), I just haven't started it. I expect I have many blind spots.

I welcome constructive criticism, recommendation, and most of all help. Volunteers have contributed to major developments in the podcast. Actually, most of all, for others to start their versions of the podcast, applying it to their fields, like Leadership and the Environment Entrepreneurs or Leadership and the Environment Silicon Valley or wherever someone wanted to meet the top people in their field, talk to them on a podcast, and help them become role models.

I apply the technique in my teaching, coaching, and public speaking -- also in my personal life since it is based on helping people do what they care about.

Did I answer most of your questions? I'm answering publicly so anyone interested in helping grow the podcast into a movement can see what's happening and how they can make a difference while advancing their careers and lives. I'm also happy to follow up somewhere with higher bandwidth. My email is at http://joshuaspodek.com/contactconnect.

I feel the same, just with the times flipped around. For me the morning is great for small random/admin type tasks. Even reading a research paper or spending some time learning about something I need to do/use.

In the afternoon is when I can concentrate for 2-4 hours and do some intense work. Take a break after that, and iron out anything small before calling it a day.
This seems to be a recommendation to avoid 90%+ of websites. Sorry, not gonna happen.
I find that there are so many that you have to just use one for a while and see if you like it (kind of meta, that).

The biggest differentiators are the UI, configurability (of times, alarms, etc.), and for me, oddly, the ability to have/not have a "ticking" sound while it's going. I like it to keep me motivated, others hate it and prefer music. Sometimes I use both.
